mrs. JAMES dunn DEAD.

The friends and relatives of Mrs.
Mamie McRoberts Dunn received a
severe shock when they learned she
had passed away at her home in Dam
vile after only few hours illness.
She had been in her usual health until
Monday night when she was taken
with severe headache. A physician
was called and apparently relieved the
pain but at one O'Clock she became un'
conscious and never aroused. dying at
seven O'Clock Tuesday morning.
Before her marriage Mrs. Dunn was
Miss Mamie McRoberts of Lincoln and
Garrard counties. being daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. John McRoberts. She
was greatly loved here where she spent
most of her school DAYS and Young
womanhood and where she has often
visited her relatives. She married MIR.
James Dunn of lower Garrard about
80 years ago. he together with three
married daughters survive her.
She is also survived by one sister,
Mrs. j. K. Mount, of Lancaster, and
five brothers, Robert McRoberts, of
Lancaster, Harvey of Stanford, and
Charles, George and Thompson Me-
Roberts.
In speaking Of her death the Dan
vile Messenger has the following to
say.
"Mrs. Dunn was member Of the
Christian church and rarely if ever did
church sustain a greater loss than by
her passing away. She attended regu-
larry upon its services. was dependable
in all Of its activities. she was never
happier than when she was serving her
Lord. She was president of the Wom-
ans Bible Glass and many of those who
who We're present last SUNDAY morning
when she presided over the class dur
ing its business period said her face
glowed with Christian love. Besides
her affection for her home and her
church she was affiliated with the or
ganized community work of this city.
She spent yesterday afternoon gather
ing together some clothes for some
poor families.
Though her mannerism was quiet and
reserved, very few il any women will
be more greatly missed and whose
memory will be more lovingly cherished.
The sympathy of the entire community
goes out to the family in this sad hour
She was buried in Danville Thursday.

War, THE BUSINESS
OF THE PEOPLE

One wear ago. April the 9th. 1917
peace loving America was hurled into
the vortex OF the great Worlds War.
That this declaration found Us in q
state OF unpreparedness Tor our new
business Is well known. IL is generally
conceded that this was the fault OF no
one person and no one party. but a
griel Gus oversight on the part of the
American people as a whole.
We were not war loving nation, We
had not been taught the business of
war. we had no desire to acquire new
territory, we did not believe m mill
tary government, We did not want
dominion over the lanus Of the earth or
the seas thereof; so while was sat at
the council tables Of the nations of the
earth and talked Of peace and brother
ly love, great masses of steel and iron
were being wrought into all kinds Of
destructive agencies aud being ready
for the fray the great Hun War God
laid his heavy armored hand first on
one nation and then another until the
whole earth was transformed Iato one
great army camp and the business Of
the war was on.
This great issue between autUcracy
and democracy has resolved itself into
business proposition of such stupen-
dOus figures that il is difficult tor the
mind to think in such numbers. Ger
many. in her long preparation, was
able TO set the initiative and in order
to insure victory the Allies have to
overcome those figures in men and
money.
The selectiye draft was the only
possible way to raise the army. Eight
weeks after war was declared 10. 900, 900
men were registered and recorded in
Washington and one hall million are
now ready for service. Troops are be
ing sent abroad as fast as ships can
take them and as rapidly as the camps
are emptied new recruits are called.
The exodus Of fighting men across the
ocean will never cease until victory is
achieved.
The stupendous task of organizing
for war has been met with great eff
ficiency in spite of all criticism to the
contrary. The greatest cause for an
xiety lies not in the heads that direct
the government, not in what the soldiers
are able to do. but in the people in un-
sefishly meeting the demands for the
emergency. The people must practice
thrift. economy ana industry. The
food supply and control is the business
of the people and the financing of the
war should be their glorious privilege
and is. II you wish to end this war.
if you are patriotic American, make
some sacrifice for your country. do
something that counts, figures speak
louder than words, buy A LIBERTY
BOND"

the third smallest In A years.
The value Of animal products l.;
higher than ever before, amounting
TO 145,O0O.000, as against $111,-
600, 200 the highest prior value In
