In this issue of the Courier
Julian Fisher, chairman of the
Third Liberty Loan for Smith
county, announces that the quota
of this Loan for the county is
$l43, 100. Mr.. Fisher has also
set out the quota for each civil
district, using cold figures to
arrive at these amounts and it
can very readily be seen what
is expected of each community.
Each week until the campaign
ends, May 4th. the amount SUBJ
scribed by each district will be
published so that all may know
just what progress is being
made. Special inducement is of
tered for oversubscriptions.

man see to it that the subscrip-

train in Carthage last Monday
you were awakened to the fact
that it takes money and lots of

moderate amount raised in every
civil district in the United States
will sufficiently swell a fund to
meet the demands. Therefore,
let every district do its part. and
more. Some of our citizens ii
seems have not awakened to the
gravity of the situation, but
alas, the crisis has come and we
must rise up and meet it. What
sort of an American is it that
would not lend his government q

TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with it to

Common garden sage brewed into .

gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully
dark and luxariant. just few applica-
lions will prove revelation if your hair
is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the
Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome An easier way is
TO get a 50-cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage
nd Sulphur Compound at any drug store
III ready for use This is the old time
recipe improved by the addition of other
Ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful. we all desire to retain our youth

darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it so naturally, so evenly.
You just dampen sponge or soft brush
vita it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning all gray hairs have disappeared,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant
This preparation is a delightful toilet

Little Miss Merris Carroll, who
with her mother has been making her
home at st. Petersburg for some time,
will graduate" from the eighth
grade, at the big st. Petersburg pub
lie school, Thursday. The closing ex-
ercises will be held in the park, as the
school building is not large enough to
accommodate the crowd. The custom
of giving the eighth grade pupils then
diplomas, pretty and sensible ar
rangement, has been in vogue at ST.
Petersburg for some time and, we un-
derstand, has been inaugurated in the
Ocala school this year. Many of the
pupils of the public schools never go
higher than the eighth grade, and this
gives them something to show for
their work in after years. Merris will
come to Ocala Monday to pay visit
to Miss Rose Wolff, and Miss Rose
will return with her to st. Petersburg
to visit there.

tempt to save herself fell and receiv-
ed this severe injury. It was hoped
that when the bones knit together,
she would recover, but she is still on
crutches and it is now feared she will
be crippled for life.

ANOTHER REASON FOR UTILIZING OUR WATERS

How fortunate are those manufacturers who use water
power or electric current derived from waterpower. The fed
eral fuel administrator has cut off supplies of fuel from most
of the industries east of the Mississippi for stated periods dur
ing the next ten weeks. Washington seems to be panic-strck-
en- because it's toes are cold on account of the blockade in the
local freight yards of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, but pro-
tests from manufacturers, not allowed to burn their own coal
which they had sufficient foresight to store up for an emer-
gency, will not avail in a land ruled temporarily by dictators.
If our canals and inland waterways had been put in COM
mission the east would have plenty Of coal. AS it is, New
York City has plenty on the wrong side of the Hudson river;
but New England is short of fuel. Water transport would
have provided the coal. Developed waterpowers would have
furnished electric current for thousands of factories which
will be embarrassed by this government edict.
There is little excuse for this panic in Washington, but
that does not minimize the strength Of the case for full use of
waterways and waterpowers. AS long as the rain falls, the
rivers will flow to the sea, and the fullest use of their waters
will not diminish their currents by a single drop. Falling wa
ter is the one source of power that is not diminished by use
to full capacity. The very SHOWS that have interrupted rail
road service and disturbed the mental equilibrium of Wash
ington bureaucrats will insure and increase the water supply.
The country now has another reason for developing it's water
ways, namely, insurance against Washington panics.-Ex-
change.

SOCIALISM

Trotzky and Lenine, leaders of the %Bolsheviki, show more
hatred of the bourgeoisie than of autocracy. Trotzky has reach
the top of the ladder at a bound and is not only an autocrat
but a usurper of power. He rates the middle class below him.,
Just as he rated it when he was below it. He denies to others
the right to retain and enjoy the fruits of their thrift and in
dustry, but he seeks to revel in high office and the contents
of the Russian treasury without stint.
Socialism cannot succeed because it destroys incentive to
work. If all men were industrious, strictly honest and faith
his best and shared equally with others might be secured. I'm
fortunately for the theorists, human nature has not attained
such altruism. When all share equally in the products OF
wealth of the community some of the members loaf and avoid
doing their share of the work; and the settlement goes to
pieces. 1t has been tried often enough in all ages to prove that
a sociaisic or communistic state is not suited to man in his
present state of development. The family, and not the lndl-
vidual, is the unit of society, and many socialists recognize this
by advocating the destruction of the family through the aboi-
ton of marriage.
munities break I'D because the members will not work and
stick together; but these exceptions are celibate monastc or
ders. A few Trappist monks will go out into a wilderness and
grow rich by raising livestock and farming, but the world will
have entered it's last generation if all men become Trappists.
Communal life is successful only when the members volun-
tarily subject themselves to strict discipline.
1t is as easy to figure out on paper the success of a COM
munity of socialists as it is to estimate the fortune that can be
made by raising chickens and eggs. Both fail in practice for
a somewhat similar reason. The socialists will not stick to-
gether and work honestly very long; and the chickens cannot
live together in vast numbers without danger Of practical ex-
tinction by contagious diseases. Men and chickens thrive best
when the ordinary family is the unit of society.
The much abused bourgeois, or middle class, is recruit
ed from the ranks of the workingmen. Those who work and
save are better off than those who work and do not save. The
former become small tradesmen and few grow rich. Such
chances to live in comfort are incentive of thrift. The United
States has prospered and become great solely because it has
given every person a chance to rise. TrOtzky and his class
would destroy the system that has made America what it is
New York Commercial.

Reports from the east are to the general effect that coal
is rapidly moving to the population centers suffering from a
shortage and zero weather and to the ports where ships are
waiting for bunker coal so they may take freight away from the
congested terminals. Pooling of tug and barge facilities IN all
the ports was wisely ordered to synchronize with the arrival OF
the much-needed coal.
When the final survey of the results of the five days sus-
pension of manufacturing is made the country will learn a new
lesson in the value of cooperation in promoting vital natlonal
