All is in complete readiness in
this city for the Fourth Liberty
Loan drive, which will start to-mor-
row, Saturday, simultaneously in
the city and county. Chairman
Buckner Woodford and his soliciting
committees are ready for the work,
which will be prosecuted with vim
that is bound to carry it to success
full conclusion.
1t is the aim of the committee to
make the drive one-day affair, and
as the quota assigned to this county
Is not such a large one, there should
be no difficulty experienced in rails
ing it. Chairman Woodford asks the
people not to wait until they are
called on by the solicitors, but to go
to their banks, or hunt up the com.
mittees in their precincts and hand
in their subscriptions or pledges.
This will make the success of the
one-day drive an assured fact.
Bourbon's record in past campaigns
will be great thing to boost up this
campaign, as we would not wish to
have it said that the county had
fallen down." after leading so long
in the good work that has been going
on in this district.
Get busy, and meet the committees
more than halfway. AS a matter of
fact, there will be many whose bus
mess will not permit of the time nee
essary to hunting up the solicitors,
but those who can do so, should take
note of the request made above by
Chairman Woodford, and help the
good work by going to the banks or
other designated places and lending
their money to the Government in
return for those Hun-exterminator
Fourth Liberty Bonds.
The work will begin tomorrow,
Saturday remember. Let's all be
prepared and ready to do our share,
and do it gladly, willingly and
cheerful1y, for the benefit of those
lover there" whose lives are in
deadly peril for our sakes.
The committees have not been an
nounced thus far in advance, but the
organization has been made perfect
and is composed of men of ability
and hustle. Many of them have par
ticipated in former drives, and have
become known as "never-quitters."

ADVERTISING.

Leslie's Weekly says: BradStreetS
statement that 81 per cent of all fail
ures are among non-advertisers is
significant Intelligent advertising has
become an essential in every modern
industry, but what shall the advertiser
do in the face of the war situation
when he finds it difficult to get goods
to fill his orders? First of all, it
should be remembered that the founda-
ton purpose Of judicious advertising
is to fix indelibly the trademark in the
public's mind. A let-up in that cam
paign must be fatal to any product.
So, we find Mr. George III. Charts, vice
president of the American Rolling Mill
Company declaring the company's pur-
pose to continue it's advertising, al
though for two and half years it had
been unable to supply the demand for
it's product. eve are building" said
he, "a permanent business ediice, and
some day we would have to spend
millions Of dollars buying the business
and goodwill of our clients if they are
forsaken in this emergency" Unless
advertising is kept up without break
the advertiser loses the results of the
initial effort. Here is warming to the
advertiser who neglects the dull sea-
son in summer. When advertisements
are fewest is the very time when a
message to the public will get the most
attention. 1t is good psychology to
push the advertisement of a winter
product in summer and of a summer
product in winter.

L Airoplane mail service was inaugur-
ated on May 10th between Washington
and New York with Philadelphia as a
midway stopping place for receiving
and delivering mail. Airoplanes
start simultaneously from New York
and Washington, about three hours be-
ing required for the trip. No serious
accident has yet occurred in the
service, but they are no doubt unavoid-
able in the long run. Each plane
carries about 40 lbs. of mail. The
innovation reduces the 259 miles mail
service between: these cities from 80 to
3 hours-all done within the last
eighty years. 1882 when by a COM
bination of stage coach, railroad and
steamboat, the service was reduced to
SO hours, everybody thought the feat
most remarkable. Verify, the world
does move!

of a man, he has been feeling dissatis-

little for his country.
He has been thinking that millions
of our boys soon will be standing up to

taking the chances of a captivity al
most as bad as death, and of wounds
that will cripple them for life. They
will be shivering in wet trenches, when
we are comfortable in sheltered homes

to do. Subscribing to Liberty bonds,

ms hope. But that is merely ordinary
prudence in times of high prices. No
sacrifice about that either.
The Red Cross solicitor gives us the
chance to make just little bit of a
sacrifice in return for those who are
giving us their all. We should accept
it with joy, as just the kind of thing we
have been wanting to do, but haven't
had the chance. How it will help us
to greet the boys when they get back,

asked to give for their protection we
