Liberty Loan
Enthusiastic Meeting oi Tounshlp
Committeeman IRON All Paris d
the County,.

Last Monday afternoon q meet
ing called by the county chairman
OF the new liberty loan committee
was held at the court house. There
lot being space in the farmers
room for the gathering the meet
ing was held in the court room.
representatives from every part Of
the county being present. Frank
K. Stewart, an officer of the 9th
Federal Reserve District, was pres
ent and addressed the meeting.
showing the necessity of every in
dividual and every corporation do
ing its share. The new loan calls
for more than twice as large sub
scriptions as those of last year.
and it will not be left entirely to
the individual to say Just how
much his subscription will be or
whether he will make any subscrip-
tion. Those who exhibit their
disloyalty by refusing to subscribe
for bonds when able to do 90 will be
reported to the government. and
their cases will be dealt with By
Uncle Sam. Mr.. Stewart gave out
some pretty plain talk and asserted
that the time was past for any So
50 loyalty; that q man must now
be heart and soul for America or
be recognized as bastard traitor,
He said the war is on US, and the
man who was not for us was against
US. There can beSno such thing g
business as usual The only
business any American could now
have was to win this war. Every
other business proposition must be
subservient to that one thing.
Where it IS known that ! man is
able to subscribe for several thous-
ands Of the bonds and seeks i'm
munity by buying q $50 or 500
bond. the government was going
to know the reason for the mans
holding back. A systematic per-
sonal canvass Of the county Is go
ing to be made in this liberty loan
drive, and every person who can
possibly buy bond Of large or
small denomination will have IN
to do 50 according to
his financial standing.
The committeemen who have
this work on hand in Grant county
are going at the work in earnest.
While they are doing this it will
be the patriotic duty of those Of
US who are solicited to respond in
the right spirit and do everything
we can to aid them. and bring
Grant county over the top. We
afford to have the name OF
slackers in this matter.
For convenience in canvastng
three townships IN the western
end of Grant county have been
turned over to Roberts county,
and the townships OF Geneseo
and Lockwood in Roberts county
will be considered Grant county
territory, and canvassed with
this county.

stood In the past few months. He
was commissioned captain and
sent to the first officers training

HIS last operation makes 1t apparent
that he will never be fit for military

Russell Sells Valuable Properly.

Frank b. Russell has closed a
deal for the sale of his lease on the
David Patrick farm TO X. NJ. Stan
ton d Co., New York oil corpora
ton.
The Patrick farm, which contains
some 100 acres, is located IN Powell
county, near the Powell-Estill line,
in proximity with the Furnace pro-
duction. At the present time there
are twenty wells on the farm, which
have an average daily capacity OF
approximately 800 barrels.
The price paid for the lease was
100000. The purchasing COM
pany, it is understood, will continue
drilling operations on the farm, un-
til its capacity is reached. Just now
only one string of tools is being run
on the property.

Everyone Should Raise Garden.

No family of limited means can
afford this year to be without a
garden. Food will be hard to get
in many places, at any price, for
railroads and shipping will be
strained as never before, to meet
war needs, and foods from a dis
tance cannot be depended on. For
tunately garden production is
quick.
There are many thousands of vii
lagos, towns and cities in this coun-
try. In and about every one of
them there are idle lands that can
be gardened and men, women, boys
and girls who have the strength and
can take the time to do it. In prac-
tically every one of them there are
people who understand how to do
it and can direct those who do not.

Due Regards for The Con-
scientious Objectors.

Thirteen of the conscientious OBJ
jectors" who have been stationed
at the Lincoln Division have been
transferred to the Quartermasters
Corps of the local camp and ten
others have been assigned to the
base hospital for duty. These men
have stated that they would not
serve in the army in the capacity of
fighters, but would do such work
that did not aid in causing the
death of their fellow men. The Of
ficers have given them various du-
ties at the camp and have assigned
them to what are known as the non
combatant forces of the National
Army. These men have said that
they had no conscientious obiec-
tions" against serving in the Quar-
termaster Corps or with the hospit-
al forces.
The above disposition of these per-
sons whose religion prevents them
from taking that which they cannot
give, speaks much for our Govern
ment. The pilgrims came to Ply
mouth, Mass, in 1920 to escape re-
ligious oppression, and since then
this country has given its people
religious liberty. The Quaker is al
so a notable character in our coun-
try's early history as non-believers
in war. They never had trouble
with the Indians, even during the
French and Indian wars, history
records that not drop of Quaker
blood was shed.
Christian people owe much to
their country for this religious lib
erty which today is not enjoyed in
many other countries, for in some
places the conscientious objector is
punished by disfranchisement. Not
withstanding some sad neglects of
our Government, we have still the
best country in which to live on the
earth, and is well worth fighting
for, which method of fighting is put
up to the good conscience of the
soldier, be he Christian after this
manner of Christ or otherwise.
