tactics ever since he took over control
of the allied armies as supreme COM

reaching military circles here. The
horsemen have played an important
role in the whole battle OF 1918, as

The employment of swift-moving
columns in the present commensurate

noted in the dispatches. Again Gen
eral Foch took advantage OF the great
mobility Of the mounted arm to throw

units threatened to lose touch with
each other In the heat and confusion
of the contest. No gaps have been left
where the enemy might strike back,
for always the horsemen came up to
fn the hole until the infantry line
could be rectified and connected in
solid front.
The same tactics marked the first
use of French cavalry In the battle of
Plcardy. when the French took over
IS miles of front from the British
&c permit the latter to mass reserves
at seriously threatened points of the
line farther north.

BOURBON OUT in FRONT
Blue Grass County Leads State
in Thrift Stamp Drive
Chairman S. E. Bedford Has Made
Fine Record and People Have
Come Forward In Pleasing
and Commendabe Way.

Paris, Ky.-A Bluegrass county,
Bourbon, holds the record so far in
Kentucky, size, population and quota
considered, in the sale of Thrift
Stamps and War Savings Stamps.
Chairman S. E. Bedford has reported
20 State Headquarters at Louisville
hat his organization has disposed Of
100000 worth of Stamps It's quota
is $3l9.240, and the Bourbon organiza-
ton is planning to have all of this
amount either sold outright or pledged
before the Third Liberty Loan cam
paigG is finished in his section of Ken-
lucky.
The Paris Kcntuckian-Citizen, which
is actively cooperating with Mr. Bed
ford and his organization in this great
war activity, has the following article
with reference to the campaign in
Bourbon:
''Fifty-ni2e Bourbon county people
have been enrolled in the one thou
sand dollar War Savings Stamp Club
IS result Of their subscribing for the
maximum Of stamps permitted by the
United States government.
Other persons have literally sub.
scribed for War Savings Stamps in
amounts from five to five hundred dol
lars each and as q result Chairman S.
E. Bedford has disposed of more than
one hundred thousand dollars worth
Of War Savings Stamps through his
working committees distributed in
Bourbon county. Bourbon county s
allotment of War Savings Stamps is
3349,210, and our people must hurry
themselves a bit and subscribe quickly
for the stamps remaining unsold.
'In the War Savings campaign Bour
bon people, rich and otherwise, have
come forward with their subscriptions
to this gilt edge investment in a most
| pleasing and commendable way, fol
all of which County Chairman Bedford
and the members of the precinct com
mittees are highly appreciative. How
| ever, the unsold War Savings Stamps
must be sold before the next issue o;
Liberty Loan Bonds, which will be Of
tered to the public in April.
Get busy yol patriotic and liberty

Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps

No More Conflict in Two Campaigns
Than Between Superdreadnoushts
and Destroyers - Object of
Both Is to Finance War.

Louisville, Ky.-Instead of the Lib,
erty Loan campaign and the War Saw,
ings movement conflicting they really
supplement each other.
The Liberty Loan campaign and the
War Savings movement are no more
rivals than the superdreadnoughtsa and
the destroyers of our navy are rivals,
The Liberty Loan and War Savings
Stamps are two forms of the same
States Government. They were au,
thOriZed by the same vote of Congress
and are intended to supplement each
other. They are both of paramount
Importance to the financing of the war
The Liberty Loan campaign is pri
marily to obtain the many billions OF
dollars necessary toward paying the
expenses OF war and IenUing 20 ouI
allies.
The peculiar significance of the
War Savings movement is to teach the
nation to save and to invest it's saw
ings in War Savings Stamps in order
that the Government may not merely
get money, but spend this money fol
the support of the army.
Successive Liberty Loan Bonds viii
be sold in campaigns at intervals. The
War Savings campaign, will last
throughout the year-no doubt unit
the war is over. 1t aims to develop
habits of thrift that shall make the
sales of stamps cumulative. And the
person of limited means who invests
in a few War Savings Stamps does his
share as we'll as the weather. mar
who buys Q quantity Of Liberty Loar
bonds. Millions who could not afford
to invest in Liberty bonds will be able
and glad to help by investing in Wal
Savings Stamps. The two campaigns
are, in reality, but one-that of financ
ing for victory.

SCHOOLS DO GOOD WORK

Louisville, KY, April !, 1913.
Mr. J. B. Mantle, Secretary Jefferson
County, War Savings Committee,
Gil Columbia Building, Louisville,
Ky.
My dear Mr. Mantle:
I have the honor to report to you
that the War Savings Societies in
Louisville public schools number 637.
A few are yet to be organized. We
have been in operation approximately
three weeks, and during that time
have sold Thrift Stamps and Baby
Bonds amounting to $11,934.00. l be-
lieve that every school has done its
best, and that this WORK will continue
at high speed throughout the year.
The schools that have contributed
$4,000 or more are listed below:
Girls High School $500. $2,62S
George Rogers Clark School 49,. $50
Normal School ...:............ 500
George W. Morris School ..... $50
Longfellow School ............. $40
we feel that special congratulations
are due to the Girls High School with
its amount totaling S2,62S, and to the
George Rogers Clark School which
leads the elementary schools of the
city with a total of $500. 1t is true
that many of the smaller schools may
have done quite as we'll if we con-
slider the average amount sold. For
the months of April We shall have
computed the average amount sold on
the basis of the average number be-
longing This will make fair COM
parison between all schools.
Yours truly,
o, L. REID,

Have you ever found your seed
heans filled with weevls lie the spring?
This is not an uncommon experience,
and, of course, the weeyils make the
beans useless for planting. You can
prevent this trouble by mixing lime
with the beans, using about half as
much in bulk. There is no reason.
for that matter, why you shouldn't
use the same plan to keep the weeyils
out of the beans you have Stored for
winter eating. There is no reason
why you should feed worms on beans
that you need for your own table,
especially in war time, when food is
short.
