NECESSARY TO COMPLETE
WAR SAVINGS CAMPAIGN
IF PEACE COMES TOMORROW
People Must Pay Expenses of War in
Loans or Taxes-Must Save the
Nations Honor.
(From War Savings Headquarters)

II peace were to come tomorrow or
before Christmas, it would be Just
as essential that the War Savings
campaign be made success as if the
war should continue several years
longer. The reasons are these:
The cash or credit of the United
States has already gone into the war
to the extent of thirty-six billion dol
lars. This sum has been spent, or
contracts let which, to meet, will call
for the whole amount and perhaps
more
The Government has made provi-
sion for raising it's war budget
through three sources-Liberty
Loans, taxes and War Savings stamps.
Twenty-Five billion dollars is to be
raised through Liberty bonds, twelve
billions through taxes and two billion
through War Savings stamps. Fail
ure on the part of the American pea
pie to raise their allotment of bonds
or stamps, would disable the Govern
ment to meet it's obligation to it's
creditors and would discredit the word
Of the Nation. The Liberty Bond cam
paigns have all succeeded. Upon the
War Savings campaign rests the hon
or OF the Nation, as to whether in the
future it's word will be as good as it's
bond
The Government will keep it's word
and save it's honor. Whatever the
amount of the thirty-six billion dol
lars that is not raised in bonds OF
stamps, the Government will raise in
taxes. This will be provided for il
the revenue bill that will be framed
next fall the taxes to he maid is 1920
The people will pay the expenses OF
! the war either in loans with interest
or taxes without interest.
# an armistice should be agreed
upon tomorrow, war expenses would

Eugene Chisholm of Ramseur,
brother of John H. Chisholm, Ash
boro, writes a very interesting letter
to his brother, extracts of which fol-
low:
Il am feeling well, considering what
] have been through with for the past
two weeks. To tell the truth, feel
lucky to be living. Lots of the home
boys have given their lives in the
last big battle, but all died for a good
cause. The United States ought to
be proud of them. Perhaps our great
est loss was Captain Dixon. He was
father to US boys. l never expect
to find another man who will take
the interest in the boys he took. The
place we took was the strongest place
on the Hindenburg line. The English
French, Scotch and Canadians had
tried different times to take the place,
but failed. The place where we were
was over 100 miles off and we ex-
pected to stay there, but General
Pershing sent US there to take this
strong point. He said he felt sure
we could do it, and we did. That
Hindenburg line is some line. I wish
you could see it.
"Just before going into battle, Cap
! tain Dixon lined his men up and talk
ed to them almost an hour and said
! We are going to take this place if
there is only one man left when we
get there He said he had no hopes
| of coming out alive, and he made his
! will and left note to be sent to his
| mother. He only got about half way
and was wounded three times before
| he was killed, but kept right on going
until bullet went through his heac
| that caused his death. The last words
he said were, Go on, my boys. l an

Sergeant Forester, Sergeant Me
Dowell and many others were killed

YIELD 10 CALOTABS
OVERNIGHT

To break up cold over night or to
cut short an attack of '"fl"nr-.,
grippe, physicians and druggists are
now recommending Calotabs, the new
nausealess calomel, that is purified
from all dangerous and sickening ef-
fects. Those who have tried it say
that it acts like magic, by far more
effective and certain than the old style
calomel, heretofore recommended by
all physicians.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with eating,
work or pleasures. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your whole
system feels refreshed and purified
Calotabs is sold only in original sealed
packages, price thirty-five cents. Rec
commended and guaranteed by all
druggists. Your money back if you
are not delighted-adv

The New Bank Customer.
ON The Mooresville ENTERPRISE.

From The Mooresville Enterprise.
Within the past few years more
farmers have opened bank accounts
than IN any previous time in history.
Reason for this is that the farming
class has had more money than ever
before. In this section farmers have
received good prices for the various
farm products and have received cash
for their goods. There are still quite
a number of men who refuse TO put
their money in banks, having been
persuaded that the government would
confiscate the money, and lot of
other such rot. OF course the average
man does not pay any attention 10
an argument Of that kind, but the
unintelli"ent and unsu5pecting arv
easily led to believe almost anything
when told by d leader Of :heir commu-
nifty. It would be the Wiscst thing for
any man to do when he mas money |,
take it 20 d bank and deposit same anl
then check against it. Money s5o!et
from your nome is seldom cye- re
covered and money burn-d is g0n,
I0reVc-'. We have seen on several OK
casions men flourish several hundred
dollars, put it in their pockets an,
leave for home. Something may hap
pen to that money. Better put it in
! bank for safe keeping.

the Shipping Board, it is apparent that
the committee was treated most gen
erously in the assignments made.
With these steamers now available
for immediate sailings and permanently
to be used as sugar carriers, the pros
poets are bright for a great improve
ment taking place in the movement of
raws from West Indian ports to Amer
lean refining points during April as
compared with the March record.
1t is generally understood throughout
local sugar circles that at the request
of the Food Admin istTatiOn the com
mittee will endeaVOr to move approx
mately 100000 long tons of Cubas
during April. At this writing there is
every reason to believe that this goal
will DO reached, for, in addition to pro
