DR.. A. G. DlNWlDDlE

This paper could never chronicle a
death outside Of the immediate fam
lilies of its staff that would bring to
us a deeper sadness than that of DR..
A. G. Dinwiddie, who, ,succumbed last
night to the grim reaper Before his
recent illness he was frequent and
welcome visitor to this office and his
hearty greetings = followed BY com.
ments on the news and events of the
day, mixed with some of his witt
cisms, were incidents of pleasure that
will be cherished in our memory.
DR.. Dinwiddie was a man of pro-
found wisdom. but he subordinated
his superior knowledge and thought
to the opinions Of others and was ever
ready to throw the mantle of charity
over the shortcomings and frailties of
human nature. However, his broad
mindedness did not 60 to the extent
of minimizing the real evils and
wrongdOings of the world, for he be-
lieved in strict punishment for those
things that were in violation of the
principals of morality and social
health.
A long life spent in many communi.
ties gave him not only a wide ac-
quaintance in Tennessee and Mis-
souri,, where he was for fifty years a
minister of the Methodist denomina-
ton, but also a deep insight into
human character, which but increased
his love for his fellow man.
It has been said that he was re-
ligious cosmopolitan, being bound by
no dogma and fettered by no narrow
creed. Although he was a minister of
the Methodist denomination he often
communed with the Pensioners of
the Episcopal church, and for several
months in Columbia while the First
Presbyterian church was without a
pastor he filled the pulpit for that
His life was fruitful of good deeds.
His memory will never fade from the
minds Of the thousands whom he has
helped upward on the path, the end
Of which he reached last night in
Heaven.

MENINGITIS SPEECH.

Judge Mcknight added to his repu-
tation as a strong and forceful speak
er in his address to the Nashville war
conference on Monday. Judge Nc
knight is intensely patriotic. He
loves his country, He appreciates his
obligation to serve, his duty to the
nation and he gave to his hearers a
message that should prove a real in
SEPARATION to them. He declared that
he was willing to do whatever might
be required of him that his nation
might have great victory. If he will
go over Maury county and preach the
same doctrine from every stump he
will render his country service be-
yOnd estimate.

district exemption board are ended.
Judge Davis possesses splendid
qualifications for service In the. ma
tional congress. He is just In the prime
of life. His record on the circuit
bench is the pride of all admirers OF
an able and fearless jurist. He is
capable lawyer and an upright Judge
as well as a close student of all the
problems of government. He is Wig

thing he believes to be right and UNI

who are delighted to know that his
ambition to serve his country at

IN ITS NEW HOME.

From now in The Herald will have

south Garden street. where with a
lew outfit, including a larger and
more modern press, it hopes to be
attended with the same success that
las marked its career in the old
stand from which 1t moved with
many memories that will cheer and
inspire it during the years that are
20 come. The Herald can wish itself
10 greater blessing than that in the
new home it will have as many
friends, as loyal support and as
great degree Of success in its
fight for better things. as were its
portion In the old home.
From now on The Herald will be
issued in an enlarged form, seven

SAVE THE FOOD.

| No patriotic American can refuse
to do his or her full share in conserv.
ing food as requested by President
Wilson in his proclamation issued
Sunday. The fact that the nation re.
quires this devotion and sacrifice upon
the part of the people is sufficient
reason for faithful and religious
compliance with the new and drastic
food regulations. Having first hand
information Of conditions in this coun.
try and among our heroic allies the
President has announced the very
minimum of savings that must be
made if this war is to be won. va
Everything on earth that we hold
worth while is at stake in this titanic
conflict. Whatever we have are
may be is involved. Assuredly the
contest cannot be won without food.
To obtain sufficient food for our
selves and our allies a certain definite
program must be followed. To know
these facts is all that any true Am
erican will require in order to set
himself resolutely to the task that is
before him. Every loyal housekeeper
will as dutifully save and conserve as
though she were about some religious
duty.
No American family is exempt from
the obligation to have two wheat saw
ing days every week, Monday and
Wednesday, and one wheat saving
meal every day of the week. Likewise
they are all obligated to have one
meatless day every Tuesday, pork
less day every Saturday and a meat
less meal every day. A meatless meal
or day is one on which no beef, pork
or mutton whatever is served. A
porkless day means one on which no
pork products are used as meat.
There must also be stricter econ
omy in the use of fats and sugar.
These things are essential to the sue
cess of our glorious cause. Unless
we do what is required of US not only
will our efforts for country and hum
anity and liberty fail but they should
fail. The $500 signers of pledge
cards in Maury county are solemnly
obligated by the voluntary signature
10 the new program. They will be
false to their plighted word to their
nation in its darkest hour IL they do
not set an example for strict obser-
vance Of the spirit of that pledge that
will be worthy of the emulation of all
patriots. Sc
Let NO American citizen excuse or
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1918-02-01

In all the land his keener apprc-
citation Of its obligation to the public
than The Herald. 1t is especially
impressed with the solemn service
which In this, the greatest emergen-
cy that the nation has ever faced, it
must render. 1t is almost with
sense of humility that 1t approaches
the grave tasks that 1t must per-
form, the added problems that 1t
must aid its people in solving.
Primarily The Herald is interested
in the success of the nation in this
great war. 1t Is fully alive to the
part that 1t must play in arousing the
people Of this community to a full
realization of the tremendous issues
that are involved. Very few people
have yet beome sufficiently impress
ed with the awful task that confronts
the nation, with the magnitude Of
the undertaking of our country.
When they fully appreciate these
conditions there will be less dis
position to criticise duly constituted
authority and more loyal and earn
est disposition to make any sacri-
flee required of them. To bring the
people hereabouts to see these con-
ditions as they are is the first con-
sideration of The Herald.
1t will in the future as in the past
serve its city and country and state
with fidelity and ability, but real
izing that everything is involved in
the success of American arms, that
in this war civilization is at stake
humanity in a death grapple, the ma
tional cause must and will have
first consideration. 1t hopes to make
it so warm for the copperheads and
traitors. the selfish land unatriotic
that they will leave the county by
the next train.
To our new home The Herald in
vites its friends and readers. The
latch string will ever be ON the out
side, Whatever the paper has in
ability, in income. in influence will
be given unreservedly and disinter-
estedly to the service of the nation,
the state, the county and the COM
munity. The building from which
this paper is issued is here and now
dedicated to the public interest, with
out one single thought Of personal
preferment upon the part of the
editor, whose only ambition is now
as it has ever been to serve the peo-
pie of Maury county and the nation
with fidelity, with zeal and with
some measure Of success.

marked progress in recent years is

blue brass section. The Herald re-
Gently installed a Duplex press with
a capacity of 5000 per hour-similar
to the one on which the Daily is pub
lished-moved into a building of its
own, largely increased its circulation
through a spirited contest and enlarg-
ed the size of the paper from six to
seven columns. The first edition run
on the new press has just come to
our exchange table 1t consists of
twenty pages, and is crowded full of
attractive advertisements. One real
estate firm alone, the Figuers Realty
Company, carries more than three
pages of advertising in this single
issue.
Edited by James I. Finney, one of
the veterans of Tennessee journalism,
with Robt. H. Claggett as associate
editor, and Walter d. Hastings as bus
mess Manager, The Herald has hit a
new stride and Is planning to give its
readers and advertisers a bigger run
for their money. While Columbia has
a census population no larger than
Albany, The Herald has splendid
field because of the rich surround
ing agricultural section, populated by
an educated and cultured people. The
merchants Of the city are alert and
resourceful and have long since
learned the value of newspaper ad
vertising.

MR.. psAYs ANNOUNCEMENT.

III opiIc VI tHC oAdCtlu6 ucudHuS
upon the people of Tennessee result
ing from participation in the great
world war there must still be some
time and thought given to political
affairs. Elections for officials to
run the machinery of government
cannot be postponed in this republic
as they have been in England and
France and we must endure primaries
and conventions, but it is going to be
more than usually difficult to arouse
the people to an intelligent participa-
ton in them. However, it is a part
of the burdens of citizenship in a re.
public to manifest an interest in cleo
tons, and this obligation is even more
solemn now than under more propi-
tious circumstances.
Hon. Austin Peay, of GAINESVILLE,
has started the political ball to roll.
ing in the state to use the somewhat
anticipated phrase of the politicians,
by his announcement for governor.
This was splendid worded docu-
ment and evinces upon the part Of
the writer keen and clear concep-
ton Of the duties and obligations I'M
posed upon the high office that he
seeks. Mr.. Peay's announcement is
an exceptionally strong paper, filled
with the loftiest patriotic sentiments
and those who know Mr.. Peay de-
clare that he is wholly sincere in his
expressed determination to give the
people Of Tennessee, should he be
chosen governor, disinterested and
efficient service. rs
He treats the liquor problem as
settled in Tennessee, the only proper
attitude for any patriot to take at
this time. I Surely this of all times,
would be the most unpropitious for
a reopening Of old political sores and
wounds. The people of Tennessee
have accepted the absolute prohibit
ton Of the liquor traffic as a funda-
mental policy of government. The
next legislature will surely ratify the
federal amendment making prohibi.
ton nation wide.
Mr.. Peay's reference to the need
for improvement in the states fiscal
system is timely and it is hoped that
as the result of the coming campaign
the people of the state will be in
duced to take a liveher interest in
the business affairs of the common.
wealth, and to solve problems too
long pressing upon them for solution
but which in the malestorm of fac
tioalism, have been neglected.
Mr.. Peay is an able lawyer. He
has had experience in the legislature.
He is forceful speaker and man
Of independent thought and action. He
has many qualifications that his
friends are going to press in his be-
half in the coming contest.
Other announcements for chief ex-
ecutive will doubtless follow at an
early date. 1t is to be hoped that
they will all try, as evidently Mr..
oeay did. to escheW factionalism or
% arouse the fast disappearing faction
Il anim0sities in Tennessee. The
Herald urges its readers to look well
into the qualifications, mental and
moral, of all candidates for governor
Ind to exercise in this crisis of the
iation exceptional care in making
final choices.
