HOW TOEND THE WAR
BY II. P. Gates.

father sitting at the head Of the
table wise y distributing the
foods that belong to the ma
ton so that none of the children
will suffer, but have plenty and
to spare. Our Hevenly Father
through Jesus Christ dis,ribut-
ing divine current which We
may conn ct with and none Of
US perish but have eternal life.
Might is not right. but right is
might always. Unite the. two,
right and might, and it knows
no defeat.
If my people which are call
ed by my name shall humble
themselves and pray and seek
my face and turn from their
wicked ways then will | hear
from heaven and will forgive
their sins and heal their land"
This one passage of scripture
complied with has more power
to end this war than the seas
filled with gunboats and subma-
rines; yet it takes the two unit
ed. The church must and will
realize before victory comes that
every member who processes the
name should face these critical
times and conditions with faith
and moral courage that would be
willing to sacrifice flour, corn,
meal and even life if need be. to
give the world the blessing of
light and liberty. When the
church humbles itself at the foot
of the cross, learns God and His
will swing over all nations of
earth in due season. So brother,
suppose you and | make up our
minds to do without our. biscuit a
few mornings, to see how it
grows and to say that we have a
part to play in this greatest of
world struggle. and when a dose
comes to- US from Washington
let's take it without water and
think it good for this food dis
tribution is a God send that none
of us may suffer. And if when
we use up the supply on hand
and victory is not ours yet. we
can all 60 down together and say,
Glory to God, we have fought a
good fight. A good slogan for
every soldier on the field and
every one at home, Lord if | am
among the slain let me
be numbered with the redeemed.

PRIZE ESSAY.

In response to an offer of $40
as cash prize by the depart
ment Of. education to the pupil
writing the best composition,
containing not over 200 words,
on why | am investing in War
Savings Stamps, 24O papers
were Submitted.
Following is a copy Of the
successful contestant. Harry A..
Downs, of the Marks High
School:
1.-The main reason influencing
me to invest in war savings
stamps arises from a sense of
duty. My country needs every
quarter | can possibly save with
which to feed and equip our
soldiers and sailors who are
fighting to win a righteous war
and to uphold American honor.
These men are risking every
thing to make the world safe for
us boys and girls, for our future
homes, and for democracy, and
if they believe their country is
worth giving their lives for,
should not we at home believe
that it is worth saving for?
Then by lending my money,
I can not buy the many nones-
sentials which to produce demand
services and material that the
government needs.
THE war savings plan teaches
me the timely lesson on thrift,
without which | can never achi-
eve success, and in selling stamps
I learn something of business
methods and team work.
These baby liberty bonds earn
interests compounded quarterly;
they make me a stakeholder in
the greatest enterprise on earth
the United States government.
In short, | am helping my
government and helping myself
serving and saving. | am help
ing win a future for myself, for
my country, for democracy and
for civilization.

Chairman County Liberty Loan.)
An explanation should be made in
regard to the Board of Appeal in the
Liberty Loan campaign. The allot-
ment board is now working day and
night and every single person whom
the board considers can possibly buy
a bond is to be allotted one Thou
sands Of our citizens are to get a
letter instructing them to go and sub
scribe for the bonds allotted to them
on September 2S. Every person who
receives this letter and does not
60 to the place "a designated Is not do
ing his duty as he should do it. II
is absolutely wrong for him to stay
away. This may seem strong, put 1t
is fact.
The next question is as to whether
or not he can purchase the bonds al
5lotted to him. The allotment board
is only human, and realizes that some
mistakes will necessarily be made.
For this reason you are not to feel
any hesitancy about taking your case
to the board of appeal, provided your
conscience is perfectly clear, and you
are sure that the board has made a
mistake and has really allotted you
more than you can possibly take.
Appeal Not Disgrace. :.
Briefly, it is no disgrace at all to
go to the board of appeal, but is de-
cidly a disgrace not to appear at the
place designated in the letter which
you will all receive. The board OF
appear will be in session at 8 O'Clock

toward the man in uniform and that
they were taken into the best OF
homes and treated as one of the fam
ily..

would be to safeguard as far as pos
sible the cotton growers right.
The southern senators and repre-
sentatives have been greatly exercised
over the threat Of the administration
to fix prices. They maintain IL this
is done it will mean that only enough
cotton will be grown in the south this
year to supply for next seasons crop.
In other words, they declare the cot
ton industry in the south would
suffer a loss that it would no

continue planting crops. s.... .a
