Food Commissioner Brown announces that effective July IS, the ruling of Flour. 6 lbs to a person, 30 day supply is raised for the time being and it goes back to "A lb purchase in city and AS for country. with same amounts of substitutes used. If you have the substitutes you do not have to buy more, but you MUST affirm or honor to use same that way.
 From Mrs. P. c. Evan. County Red Cross Director. comes a copy of a letter from headquarters counteracting the depreciating remarks concerning.the women's 8 work as knitters. Every woman and citizen is warned against this and urged to push their work. From J. P. Lee comes a long type set letter from headquarters concerning the recent failure of our people to meet their full quota on War Saving Stamps and urging a continuation of the work until all pledges are secured.
 These three together with fully two dozen other equally import ant communications from the various Branches of the U. S. war work. have been received by the ARGUS this week alone with urgent request to publish. This is absolutely impossible as much as I would like to do it, for you can readily see that if 1 had a paper the size of the Commercial Appeal I couldn't get them all in even then.
 In order to better meet the demand of the Government for the great amount of publicity they deem so important in the work. I have bought an improved Linotype machine and will install 1t soon in my new office. In the mean time, I'm doing my best as 1t 1t.

Sergeant Ingram in Service.

To the Mayor, Troy, Tenn.-Dear
Sir: The following information will
no doubt be of great interest to your
self and your community.
The Thomas A. Edison, Inc, in
its moving picture department made
a moving picture film last winter
called "The Unbeliever" and which
we are distributing to moving pic
ture theatres. A number of scenes
in the film were made at Quantico,
Va, where the United States Ma
rines were in training.
Last spring this force was sent to
France and took part in many ac-
tions since then.
We have kept in touch with the
headquarters of the u. S. Marine
Corps at Washington and Col. Nc
Lemore, Assistant Adjutant and In
spcctor, has been kind enough to
send us information not yet COM
plcted, concerning the marines who
appeared in 1.-THE Unbeliever" film,
mentioned for bravery.
We find in this list the name Of
Second Lieutenant Charles A. In
gram, of your city, and we know
that you will feel great pride in the
following official citation which we
copy from Col. McLemore's letter:
Sergeant Major Charles A. In
gram, Second Battalion, set fine
example to his men during the attack
on Bouresches on June 6. He led
volunteers to bring in the wounded
during the bombardment of La Cense
Farm on June 8 and thruout showed
fine coolness.
Yours for the Fourth Liberty
Loan,
GEORGE KLEINE SYSTEM.
Friends of the young man, known
as Ashley Ingram, say that he has
recovered from the wound and is
again back with his compf ny.

Risking their lives within the
she'll zone behind the American lines
in France, Mrs. Adjutant Hammond,
Lieut.. Lulu Lawyer and Envoy Pau
line Swartz, Salvation Army women,
assisted by a detail of soldiers, fry
doughnuts from early morning until
late at night. On moro than one oc-
casion they have been driven from
their dugout as the place rocked un-
der the hammering of the enemy's
big guns, but despite shrieking
shells overhead, the intrepid Saliva
tion Army workers refuse to quit
their labors in behalf of the soldiers.
With shells flying overhead almost
daily, Ensigns Gertrude Symmonds
and Viola williams constantly are
rolling, cutting and frying dough-
nuts. On one occasion they made
$500 doughnuts for the mon of en-
American regiment which was NOV
ing from it's temporary billet in the
next village up to the reserve line
for the night. When the doughnuts
were finished they were distributed,
two to each soldier, as the men
marched in single file on either side
of the ambulance where the Saliva
tion lassies were stationed.
These same girls gave coffee and
biscuits to 700 weary doughboys the
day before, rs they stopped to rest on
the road near the Salvation Army
hut. When the soldiers gave three
cheers for the Salvation Army, the
villagers turned out, thinking "those
amazing Americana" had won anoth-
er victory.

COMING CAMPAIGN
Y.M.C.A WAR WORK
Bows and Girls Part in the War.

This is a boys war. Think how
many of our own soldiers are mere
boys. We love them the more be-
cause they are mere boys. Think OF
their sacrifice for us! Are not the
boys and girls at home just as ready
and willing to sacrifice?
The earn and Give" division has
been organized for ell boys and girls
eighteen and under. Each one is
asked to pledge 81 or more and they
will have three months to earn it.
They must not ask anyone to give
them anything. All must be earned.
We must sacrifice for our soldier boys
who are sacrificing for us. Each boy
or girl giving as much as 81 will be
given a button showing he belongs
to the dollar league. Each boy or
girl giving as much ao $5 or more
will be given a beautiful window
card to hang in his window at home.
This drive is to be put on Nov. IL
with the other big drive for Y. M.
c. A. work. The boys and girls of
the county are asked to raise $1,000.
We can easily go over the top if
every boy and girl will do his or her
part. Each teacher in the county
will be asked to see that his or her
school will do it's full part. Will the
teachers also see the boys and girls
in their districts who are not in
school and secure pledge from
them. Prof. Ridings is the chair
man of the grammar schools in the
county and will keep in touch with
schools thru the teachers. Prof.
MCGEE is chairman of tho high school
work.
There will be big convention of
the boys and girls of the county in
Union City to plan for this big drive.
Every boy and girl in tho county will
be interested and will do his full
part for our soldier boys. The date
of the convention will be announced
as soon as the "fiu" epidemic 10 over.
Watch for the announcement.

Destruction by the Germans of
800 churches in his own diocese was
described by the Rt. Rev. Eugene
Louis Julien, bishop of Arras, who
is in New York on his way to felici-
tate Cardinal Gibbons on the fiftieth
anniversary of his opiscopate.
Henry Morgenthau, former Am
bassador to Turkey, declared in an
address that the war will have been
fought in vain unless the German
people are made to change their
mental attitude and to think as the
rest of the world thinks.
No further effort will be made in
Congress to continue the daylight
saving plan. 1t was announced that
the hands of tho clock would be
turned back one hour on October 27,
the time originally set for the day
light saving plan to end.
The Germans in abandoning
Cambria left behind them fiendish
devices to mutilate and kill the re-
turning refugees. A British officer,
seeing a piano in the street, struck
key. A hidden bomb exploded, tear
ing off his hand.

nue. Bill the section imposing a tax
