pany which it is proposed shall be
raised in Ardmore; and,
Whereas, The objects and pur-
poses of the proposed new Nationa
Guard company, as set forth by the
sponsors for that organization, are
exactly similar to those OF Ardmore
| platoon;
Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, That,
as the entire personnel, both officers
and men, of Ardmore Platoon has
labored hard and faithfully through
discouraging circumstances and un-
der adverse conditions toward the
upbuilding and Strengthening OF
this body, and that, as there has
grown up between its members
distinctive fraternalism and for
Ardmore platoon a feeling OF sin
cere pride and affection;
Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, 1t be
the unanimous sense of this MEM
bership that it would not appear
within the bounds of justice nor
right that the Ardmore platoon be
required to lose it's identity by
merging into any other organiza-

Der devote himself, with renewed
zeal, by every honorable means, to-
ward keeping intact this splendid
military body and in adding to its
loyal membership;
Be 1t Further Resolved, That we,
as individuals and as an organiza-
ton, pledge ourselves anew to the
service OF our county, our state and
to our country, and that we stand
ready, every man, at any time and
under any circumstance whatever,
to do our full duty at home, on the
Mexican border, or abroad, in this
dcadliest war in all history; that we
extend to the new National Guard
company, now being called into ex-
istence in Ardmore, most friendly
and cordial greeting and assure them
that they, nor any other military
combination, shall be more loyal
than the Ardmore platoon to the
lofty ideals OF true Americanism nor
more devoted to that most beauti-
full of all national banners, our ba
loved Stars and Stripes.

CALL FOR ARMY NURSES.
American Red Cross Asked to Make
1000 Enrolments Week.

The American Red Sross, the chief
nurse recruiting agency of the army,
has been asked by Surgeon General
Gorgas to increase theenrollment of
nurses for immediate assignment to
duty. He suggests that at least 1000
nurses a week be enrolled for the next
two months.
The army is growing faster than the
nurse corps is increasing, and, as the
armies overseas enter the front line
trenches in greater numbers, the great
er will be the need for nurses in the
army nurse corps.
Trained nurses who wish to be of
service to their country can do so at
once by going to the local offices of
the Red Cross and making application
to join the army nurse corps. If found
satisfactory they will be assigned to
duty at once, either in the base hos
pitfalls in this country or overseas. The
nurses enrolled in the army nurse
corps are members of the United
States army and work directly under
officers of the medical department of
the army.

MEXICO HAS AVERTED
SERIOUS CRISIS NOW
carranza Cancels Oil Decree Which
Threatened to Cause an Inter
national Break.

Washington. The threatened cri-
sis in the relations of Mexico with the
entente allies and the United States
apparently has been averted by mod
ification of the new Mexican oil tax
decree by President Carranza.
1t was learned Monday that on Au-
gust II, Carranza in effect cancelled
provisions of the decree of July 81 UNI
der which undeveloped oil lands might
be seized by the Mexican government
upon failure of their owners to make
declarations and submit to what they
regarded as excessive taxation.
The decree of July 81. was an
amendment of one issued last Febru-
airy which had given serious concern
to the officers of the British and Amer
lean navies because of its interference
with the supplies of crude oil upon
which their battleships and destroyers
were dependent.

PROFlTEERING IN FARM
EQUIPMENT is DEFINED
BY FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

The federal definition of profiteering
in and boarding of farm implements is
announced by the office of farm equip
ment control of the department of ag-
riculture. Manufacturers or dealers
who hoard will be dealt with under a
special act of congress.
To sell farm equipment on the basis
of what it would cost the dealer to. re-
place it may be considered profiteer-
ing. Persons who have sold equip
ment at replacement values when
costs were hing must continue to do so
if prices go down, even though such
sales bring less than the original cost
price of the stock. Moreover, those
whose selling price is fixed in rela-
ton to high replacement prices must
restock Immediately and carry the
same quantity of equipment through
out the high-price period as they had
ait its beginning, in order not to prof
iteer. Those who desire to sell out
without replacing their stock should
not sell at "a prevailing high price, but
at cost plus fair usual profit.
1t will be considered boarding il
for, or .arranges for more equipmen!
manufacturer or dealer holds, contracts
than the reasonable demands of his
business require. Dealers finding them
selves with excess stock on hanc
through inadvertence should sell theil
excess holdings at \cost plus a fail

Gradually the famous Lys salient
in the region west of Armentieres is
giving way under the pressure of the
British. Again Field Marshal Haig's
forces have compelled the enemy to-
seek ground to the eastward where
he will be more secure from the shells
of the big guns that for several weeks
have been firing criss-cross over the
entire salient, working havoc among
the defenders of the insecure line.
The Germans are being given no
rest by the Franco-British forces
north and south of the Somme, and
the French and Americans along the
Vesle. The Americans in Lorraine
are harassing the enemy by artillery
fire and local attacks. Nowhere has
the enemy had the better of any en-

rain near Bucquay.
While as whole the German line
between the Somme and the oOise is
still holding, the British have drawn
nearer the road from Chaulnes to
Roye, between Chilly and Fransart,
placing Roye in greater jeopardy from
the north. To the south of Roye,
over the fourmile front between Beu-
vraignes and Canny-sur-Matz, a vio-
lent artillery duel is raging. Here the
French are endeavoring to outflank
both Roye and Lassigny by a drive
eastward in the direction of the road
leading southeastward from Roye to
Noyon. Their efforts have been sue
cessful
Fighting by patrols, during course
of which the British lines on the
Somme front are continually being
pressed forward slightly day by day,
continues. There have ben no coun-
ter-attacks against the new British
positions for three days.

FUTURE WAR LOANS
NOW BEING PLANNED
CAMPAIGNS NEXT YEAR ARE Elk
PECTED TO NET ABOUT
FIFTEEN BILLIONS.
FIRST ONE SEPT. 28TO OCT. l9
May Combine Two Issues in Largest
Credit Ever Asked by Any Nation
Mo Bonds to Be FoIated
at Christmas Holidays.

Washington, d. C.-Tentative plans
of the treasury provide for three big
Liberty loan campaigns within the
next year, each to raise $4,000, 100000
or more. The first will be from Sep
TENDER % to October 10, as announc-
ed; the next is planned for January or
February, and the third May or June.
Provide $4,000, 600, 900.
This program will be necessary, it is
said, to provide $4,000, 100000 requir-
ed in addition to the $4,000, 00O, 900 to
be provided by the new revenue bill.
If government expenses and loans to
allies fall much below the $24,000, 000,-
600 estimate, the government is ex-
pected to try to combine two loans
into one big campaign for the largest
credit ever sought by any nation. Such
a campaign would be set for some time
nthe late winter.
Short Time Certificates.
Money needs between loan periods
will be cared for by sale of short term
certificates of Indebtedness, as in the
past. In addition the treasury looks
for a steady influx of money from
tax certificates which banks and cor
porations probably will buy in billion
dollar quantities, which virtually mean
paying taxes in advance.
The treasury will make the loans
as few, and the time of financial rest
between the campaigns as long as
possible. Officials would much roth
er have only one more big solicita
ton in addition to the fourth cam
paign to start late next month before
the end of the fiscal year next June
so.
The treasury wishes to avoid float
ing loans in the Christmas holidays
and the weeks of commercial inactiv
ity following. Another bad time fo
loans is the spring planting season
when farmers are busy and business
men have less time than usual to de
vote to campaigning. The third pc
riod to be avoided is June, when wa
taxes must be paid.
An example of the fluctuations o
expenditures is the fact that with Au
gust more than half gone the allie
have called for only 100000 LOAF
payments, little more than one-thir
the usual rate of borrowings.
