The time is drawing nigh eake

subscriptions must be paid up and at
least a little in advance on or before
October 1st to comply with the gov
ernment ruling. We have no other al
tentative and the proposition is
squarely up to you. eBtter send in the
amount due by return mail so you
will not miss single issue. Of course
you will be expected to pay what is
due, if you do not remit by October 1st
and all such accounts will be placed
for collection as soon thereafter as
possible. Don't be forced to pay for
something that you can voluntarily

The date to which your subscription
has been paid is marked oDpnsite your

ISHED.

"The free delivery service must go
and it will not be long until every one
will be required to carry his purchases
or hire them delivered if he can. Man
power is scarce and the government
cannot afford this great waste of man
power occasioned by the free deIiv-
cry system. For some time pressure
has been brought to bear upon the
people to curtail the free delivery
system but "unpatriotic" firms were
afraid their competitors would gain
an advantage and refused ~ help but
little, if any, to the call of their coun-
try for conservation. Now the gov
ernment will most likely require what
it has sought to have done as .patri-

in coming, is our prediction.
The chase for the almighty dollar

A HISTORICAL NAME.

St. Louis, September 11.-For more
than hundred years there has been
a John Weidmer to fight in defense
of France. Today it is John Weidmer
of the 84th Co., 9Th Regiment, U. S.
Marines, and he has participated in
some of the most desperate engage
ments and escapes unscathed.
His great-great grandfather, John
Weidmer, fought with Napoleon /
through his first campaign as one of
the Swiss guards. His grandfather,
John Weidmer, also a Swiss, fought
with the French in the Crimean war
and later was in the Union army dur
ing the Civil war.
The parents of John Weidmer, ma
rine, live at 1888 Halliday avenue, this

TO THE EXHIBITORS AND PA
TRONS OF THE NORTH CARO-
LIMA STATE FAIR.

Gentlemen:
The United States Government has
taken over and leased the North Car
DINA State Fair grounds for ten
months, commencing September 1st
1918, for the purpose Of establishing
a Tank Training Camp, occupying 10
900 acres of land including the Fair
grounds. The Government found that
it could train the men to operate tanks
and put them on the fighting front IN
France three months earlier by get
ting the use of the Fair grounds build
lngS.
Patriotism demands that everybody
shall heartily cooperate with the GOV
ernment, and the State Fair manage
ment feels that it has rendered, great
service to the Government in this war
emergency, by cheerfully agreeing to
the needs of the Government by fur
nishing for immediate use the large
buildings for housing the men.
There will, therefore, be no state
Fair held this year. but we expect TO
hold the biggest fair of all in 1919.
Regretting exceedingly that this ne
cessity should have arisen, we all
nevertheless feel that every resOurVe
and energy of the Government and
people Of this country shauId be en-
plOyed in winning the war.
With grateful acknowledgment to
our many patrons and friends, we beg
TO remain,
Very truly yours,

DOESN'T BELIEVE HIMSELF.

Greensboro Patriot.
The following statement is reported
to have been made by Mr.. Charles A.
Joilas in. his speech at the alleged pa
triotic rally at the three county cor
ners: asa.
eff YOU want this war to end put
men in power who have the respect
of the world. Unless you do that the
war will drag on wearily until these
ten and twenty year old boys will have
to go as surely as night follows the
day"
We know Mr.. Jonas personally and
we have no idea that Mr.. Jonas he
lieves any such statement as the
above.
Mr. Jonas knows that the countries
NJ Furone recognize the ability and
statesmanship of President Wilson.
He knows that Mr.. Daniels has re-
ceived the highest praise from Sena-
for Lodge one of the brainiest Repub-
1icans of this country. He knows the
other members Of the Wilson cabinet
are men of recognized ability
He knows that all of the great war
measures which have been passed by
Congress- could not have been passed
exrept for, the loyal support of the Re-
publicafls in Congress.
Mr.. Jonas knows that there mas
been no dragging along of the war
thus far-he also knows that there
will be no dragging by those IN au-
thority at washington.
When a man does rot believe what
he himself says, he will generally have
hard time to make other people De-
lieve what he says.
