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 il
Kentucky, size, population and quota
considered, in the sale of Thrift
Stamps and War Savings Stamps
Chairman S. E. Bedford has reported
to State Headquarters at Louisville
that his organization has disposed Of
100000 worth of Stamps. It's quota
is S349, 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
paign is finished in his section of Ken
lucky.
The Paris Kentuckian-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 II
Bourbon:
"Fifty-nine Bourbon county people
have been enrolled in the one thou
sand dollar War Savings Stamp Club
as result of their subscribing for the
lhdAilnulu VI poi IuittCu ny Liz
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 a 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
$349,240, 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
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 OF
Liberty Loan Bonds. which will be of.
fered to the public in April.
Get busy you patriotic and liberty
loving people of Bourbon. Call on
some member of the committee and
buy literally of the War Savings
Stamps, the best and most desirable
investment obtainable today. Do your
duty now-dont wait until members OF
the County Committee, all busy bust
ness men, look you up to beg you to
do your patriotic duty"

LABOR AND CAPITAL UNITE
AZ Classes Must Buy Liberty Bonds
to Help Win the War.

We are fnce 10 face with the most
critical situation in American affairs.
SIhe time has come when each indi-
vidHal, no matter what his or her call
Eng, must do his utmost to help in
g1ning the war to rid the world Of
5Sernan autocracy, to protect his home
aud the love of freedom, and to insure
t9e coming generations that same
sreedom which is so dear to every
American citizen.
10 this cause there must be no
':2ass distinction; the laborer and cap
Rails, are equally interested and af-
tecte1, and each must, for the time,
.5gcgat self and stand shoulder to
fssag!der in helping the government
n !his crisis.
A war cannot be conducted without

Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps
Supplement Each Other
No More Conflict in Two Campaigns
Than Between Superdreadnoushts
and Destroyers - Object of
Both Is to Finance War.

Louisville, Ky.-Instead of the Lib
srty 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 superdreadnoughts and
the desuoyers of our navy are rivals.
The Liberty Loan and War Savings
Stamps are two forms of the same
financial operation of the United
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 lending to our
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 for
the support of the army.
Successive Liberty Loan Bonds will
be sold in campaigns at intervals. The
War Savings campaign will last
throughout the year-no doubt until
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 few War Savings Stamps does his
share as we'll as the Weather man
who buys a quantity of Liberty Loan
bonds. Millions who could not afford
to invest in Liberty bonds will be able
and glad to help by investing in War
Savings Stamps. The two campaigns
are, in reality, but one-that Of financ-
ing for victory.

SCHOOLS DO GOOD WORK

Louisville, KY, April I, 1918.
Mr.. ]. b. Mantle, Secretary Jefferson
County, War Savings Committee,
GIL Columbia Building. Louisville,
Ky.
My dear Mr.. Mantle:
have the honor to report to you
that the War Savings Societies in
Louisville public schools number 6S7.
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 $11,934.0O. | 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 ............. $2,62S
George Rogers Clark School 80. $50
Normal School ............... $50
George w. Morris School ...... $50
Longfellow School ............. 5l3
We feel that special congratulations
are due to the Girls High School with
it's amount totaling s2,62S. and to the
George Rogers Clark School which
leads the elementary schools of the
city with a total of $3.50. II Is true
that many of the smaller schools may
have done quite as well il we con-
slider the average amount sold. For
the months of April we shall have
comnlltad the average amount sold on
the basis of the average number be-
longing. This will make a fair COM
parison between all schools.
Yours truly,
o. l.. REID.

Milwaukee,, Wis, Sept. 23.-"The
disposition of the railroads is certain
to become n of the great political
questions following the close Of the

and that .is, railroad management will
