Four Sons in Service.
Star, Miss, June 81


The Clarion-Ledger.
Jackson, Miss.
Gentlemen: | read in todays
paper where 3 fathers have three
sons each in the army.
We always believe that Star is
the most patriotic village in the
State and to prove this | will tell
you what one of our neighbors,
Mr.. S. S. Butler, is doing towards
helping win the war.
He is the father of six sons, two
of whom are small boys.
His oldest boy has been in
France about 9 months and is
doing service on the front. An
other enlisted in April, 1917, and
is supposed to be on his way to
France. Another was drafted
in September, 1917, and serves
in the Field Hospital Corps at
Camp Beauregard, La, and the
fourth enlisted in the navy a.
bout two months ago and is now
on the battleship Alabama.
Mr.. Butler has bought Liberty
Bonds at each drive; has contri-
buted freely to the Red Cross
and his oldest daughter was with
a committee of others selling
cream on Saturday evening for
the benefit of the Red Cross.
Mr.. Butler is now engaged in
the sale of War Savings Stamps.
In my opinion when America
does her part in the war as Mr..
Butler has done and is doing,
we are going to win the war.
/ am writing this with Mr..
Buffers permission and you
have the privilege of mentioning
it in your paper if you see it.
Yours truly.

GENUINE TO THE POINT SACRI
FICE.

What a great old world this would
be if all the expressed sentiments OF
humanity were real, genuine, sure
enough what they profess to be- But
Satan originated the art of deception
back there in the infancy of the race,
and he and his minions have indus
triously perpetuated it. His amazing
success is due to his ability to, as the
small boy would put it, appear what
1t amt" We now call 1t camou.
flage.
OF all the various brands of human
counterfeit, the demagogue camou.
fiaged as a patriot is the most con-
temptible. Patriotism is a fine thing,
sacred thing, but a counterfeit pa
triotism is unspeakably disgusting,
Yet we see it all about us. 1t mis-
takes noise for action and words for
sentiment. Its omniscience is equal
to solving the most knotty problems
Of the war. Its self-sacrifice is capa-
BILE of any devotion-if the salary is
sufficient. It's renunciation is beau
tiful until it is discovered that there
is nothing to renounce. Its devotion
to duty is sublime until it is known
that the person stands to gain much
and lose not at all
Every worthy cause of the human
race is cursed with these flagrant
imitation men and women. They ride
every attempted reform to disas-
trous fall If 1t is in their power. Re.
forms now in their infancy would be
ancient history were it not for their
baneful influence.
. In the old American game of poker
there is one practice known as bluff
fling which returns good results If
successfully put over There is, how
ever, a counter practice of calling
the bluff" that sometimes gives amaz-
ing returns.
When you meet with one of these
blatant patriots who only wants an
opportunity to end the war, "call his
hand"

he has not had much time for study

get along all right)
when on the way to visit the old
wine cellar we could see the shells
bursting on the ground around the
German trenches" says Major
Houck. "The other day we were
served some fish they called ray,
but l believe it is the fish we used
to see on the Sound and called them
skates. l did not think they were
fit to eat-I'd rather eat the snail

WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?

Just few questions for the man
whose conscience" will not permit
him to fight: Suppose Jesus had
been walking in Belgium when the
Hun army broke across the border,
and had seen soldiers plunge their
bayonets through innocent children !;
had seen women and young girls
treated as only beasts are capable OF
treating them; had seen the aged and
infirm shot down without mercy and
without provocation; had seen SOL
diers captured in what they supposed
to be honorable warfare, crucified by
their captors; had seen aviators de-
liberately search out hospitals and
nurses quarters for bombing-had
he seen all this, would he have stood
by unmoved and refused to lift his
hand to right these dastardly
wrongs? If that is your conception
of Christ, you are right in your re-
fusal to fight, for If he were what
you picture him he would be as poor
a specimen of humanity as yourself
and you are the limit.

Metals in Great Variety.

We have gold, silver, copper, CO.
bait, nickel, cinnabar, asbestos, min
eral paint, plumbago, graphite, pot
ters' clay, fire clay, kaolin, chrome,
iron ore, manganese, marble, lime
stone, coal, and some of the best
building granite in the world. This
is only partial list Of the wonder
full resources to be found hidden
away in our mountains. Here is a
foundation for many manufacturing
industries. The time is now ripe to
begin our drive on them. The
United States will be better prepared
to open up these great industrial en-
terprises when the war is over than
any other country, and before the
war-torn nations can regain their old
ability to pursue their industries,
shattered by the war, ours will have
been so we'll established that nothing
can shake them. These things will
bring all facilities and accessories
needed Railroads, wagon roads and
all else that may be required. Our
mountains will be filled with reduc-
tion works and lines of railroad will
be ready to carry away our products.
The roads that will help to open
up our mines will also further ac-
commodate the operators in our for
ests. We have the best climate for
mining operations to be found any,
where. Unlike Alaska, the miner can
work the year round and never be
beyond the reach of great CONNER
cial marts without the need of snow
shoes or arctic clothing.

MAJOR HOUCK SEES
BATTLE IN THE AIR

Major George E. Houck, who is
with the American expeditionary
force in France, gave an interesting
description of his experiences at the
battle front to his wife and son in
Roseburg, which was published in a
recent issue of the Roseburg Review
Major Houck stated that he had been
stationed for sixteen days in base
hospital twelve miles from the front
and the big guns were plainly audible
from there. This hospital has ca
pacity of 5000 beds; the lectures and
instructions are given by the French
surgeons and the twenty-five Ameri-
can physicians have interpreters. He
says the lectures by these surgeons
are "a real feast" The war wounds
are awful ones to deal with" but
they are doing much advanced sur
gerry over there. This hospital has
been bombed by the Germans four
times and now they have sandbags
placed all around the buildings to
protect the patients from shell frag-
ments.
After this course is finished they
are to be taken to the trenches, and
he promises an interesting letter af-
ter that, Hen is then to take a
course at the Paris hospitals, but
there the lectures are given in Eng
lish.
In the letter to his son he said:
Yesterday was the first clear day
for some time and the observation
balloons were up. l could see four
of them. In the morning a German
plane chased a French plane over
near where was Suddenly I saw
four French planes appear and the
German spun around and beat it
back, and it looked like when some
hounds are after a jackrabbit. They
split the air like hawks, and as they
went over the lines the shell bursts
came up in the air first from the
French guns at the German, and
then the German shells after the
four French planes. The German
got away and airplanes were out in
force, but no damage was done. 1t
was a good race and rather exciting
to see. That was the first day in
two weeks that it had been clear
enough for them"
One afternon Major Houck with
some other medical officers were ex-
cused as there were no more lee
lures that day, and they visited a
large wine cellar where, they make
famous champagne. This cellar was
dug underground out of solid rock
in which to keep the wine for three
years before it is made into cham
payne. There were bottles stacked
up like cordwood-" thousands OF
them"

to back his horse, and he was yell
ing 'Allez vous,' and he finally got

THE BLOOD CALL.

There is no finer sight in this old
world than perfect blood loyalty
families bound by the ties of blood,
cemented into one compact band to
promote and defend the interests of
the whole.
The hour has struck when this call
is ringing clear and loud above all
others in the ears of the American
people. Every city, every town,
every hamlet and every community
in the land has given of its best be-
loved blood to swell the expedition
ary forces on the battlefields of
France. These men have gone to
fight OUR battles. They have Of
fered their all in OUR service. The
blood tie holds them firmly to the
task to which they are dedicated. We
have the word of the commanders
that their sacrifice is complete-that
the blood loyalty is perfect.
But is theirs to be the only demon
stration of the power of blood loyal
ty? What man worthy the name,
IL he has a friend fighting his bat
ties, will not back him up and sup
port him to the limit of his power?
Is the sacrifice to be out of all pro-
portion to the gratitude of the bene-
ficiary?
These thousands, these hundreds
of thousands, who have gone, are 60
ing, and who are yet to go-flesh of
our flesh and blood of our blood
are appealing to us thorugh every af-
fection of the human heart for SUP
PORT, for SUSTENANCE, for CO.
OPERATION, for POWER These
WE must furnish or their sacrifice
will have been in vain.
But we Americans need to be told
that the very essence of blood loyalty
is SACRIFICE. Not only a professed
willingness to sacrifice IF neces-
sary," but real sacrifice-the total
subordination of our interests to
theirs.
Coming down to grim realities,
the success or failure of our sons
"over yonder" will depend on wheth-
er or not we at home will sacrifice
10 the tune of twenty billions of dol
lars yearly. There is absolutely no
other way. This is the amount that
congress has allotted to the task. and
il must ALL come from the people,
and that over and above their own
necessary expenditures. Armies are
not fed and clothed and armed and
equipped with ammunition simply by
proclamation or by "appropria-
tions." These can only authorize the
necessary expenditures, the concrete
supplies must come from OUR la
bors and OUR savings and OUR sac
rifices.
Mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers,
friends of our soldier boys, are we
needing the blood call? Are We not
only willing" but DO we respond
with every throb of our hearts blood
70 every call? Or are we by our
lethargy and Indifference and selfish
ness manufacturing German bullets
for their breasts-for, get it right,
that is the inevitable result if we fail
IN our response to the call.
