LEGATION of the American Expedi-
tiohary Forces in France, has this
to say: American doughboys
charge a German machine gun nest
across an open field. Some fell,
but the others press forward. They
come to their objective at the point
of the bayonet, only to find the
beaten Hun. with uplifted hands.
crying 'Kamerad.' but with a gun
or a knife concealed, ready to vio-
late his plea of surrender" And
adds. This is the true Hun
spirit, the spirit back of the Kai-
ser and bis court. With the power
of offensive passing from him, he
is now merely waiting for another
chance to lift bis hands and cry
'Kamerad' or Peace" Our boys
are quickly finding out the Hun for
what be is and their consideration
for him is by no means increasing.

The fall terms Of the schools
have opened and the attendance
is very satisfactory. With the ex-
ception of the absence of the boys,
who are either in the draft, ex-
pecting to be called or taking the
places on the farm of those who
have been called, the schools show
the usual attendance and interest.
Extra effort should be made to
keep our schools up to this stand
ard of efficiency, for the coming
years are going to demand as
never before educated men and
women. The war is interfering
with the completion of the educa-
ton of many young man.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure catarrhal deafness, and
that is by constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infatned YOU
havea rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result.
UslesS the inflammation can be-
reduced and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh,
which is an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces. Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine acts thru the blood
on the mucous surface of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Catarrhal
Deafness that cannot be cured by

THE COTTON FORECAST

1890 ~ a ~ ~ a ~ $3.50 49, =
The governments September
cotton report is all but encouraging.
In fact. it is quite discouraging,
when the increased demand for this
staple for nutrition purposes is con
sidered. Besides, it is part Of
the war program to use more
cotton in clothing for the civilian
population in order to have ade-
quate WOODEN supplies for the SOL
diers who will be subjected to the
rigors of the coming winter with
limited fuel supply in prospect
At the battle front, small OPP.
portunity is afforded the soldiers to
use fuel, no matter how much
might be made available.
There will be an increased de.
mand for cotton cloth BY the Red
Cross and other organizations doing
essential war work.
1t has been encouraging to have
reports that the wool production
for this year will be vastly more
than that OF last year, or for the
past several years, and it is ear
nestly to be hoped that nothing
will occnr to cause a shortage in
that item.
1t is difficult to comprehend that
the cotton crop will fall 4,098, 900
bales short from the forecasts made
at the beginning of the season.
This amounts to more than 25 per
cent, leaving now a prospective
production of II, $4,000 bales,
which is smaller than that of the
past three years, the cause for
which is the protracted dry weather
suffered by the large cotton-pro-
ducing states of the southwest,
especially Texas and Oklahoma.
Undoubtedly this will mean a
futher conservation of clothing in
order to meet the necessities of the
war, for cotton to be used in ex-
plosives, bandages and other es-
sentials.
In addition to the conservation
of fuel and food, the saving of
cotton and cotton fabrics will
probably have to be considered by
the government in, the near future.
Old clothes may become quite
stylish, and Mr.. McAdoo's badges
of honor in the form of patches
may adorn many millions of Am
erican. Nashville American.

SCHOOL AN ASSET

A good school is a fine asset to
any town or community. 1t brings
to a town good, substantial citi-
zens, and advances the value of
property about it.
81 The purchase of the school prop.
erty of the LIS. by the town of
Huntingdon and the establishment
of a county high school has given
a new impetus to our school in.
terest and a number of families
have moved to town to get the
benefit Of the school. In addition
TO this quite a number of Boarding
students from out of the county
and fro other points in the county
have entered the school.
There is not vacant residence
in town, if we have been correctly
informed, and number of other
houses could have been rented if
they could have been had.
To make the school the success
possible it must have the hearty
and cordial cooperation of our
people. The school has splendid
faculty and the work is starting off
well and a splendid school year is
assured.

Mckenzie is going to entertain
the state w. Q. t. u. convention
next month and the ladies of that
town are already making prepare
lions. We remember that in 1884,
the third annual convention was
held in Mckenzie, but it was a
very small organization then and
was presided over by Mrs. Ida
Merriweather. 1t did nottake much
preparation to entertain the dele
cation at that time. The meeting
was subjected to much criticism
by those who thought women
we're out of their place engaging
in work of that kind. No one be-
lieved that the organization would
become such a power for good and
exert such an influence in the af-
fairs of the state and nation as it
has done in the years that have
come and gone since that time.
The union is a wonderful power
for good and the coming meeting
is to be one of much Importance.

WHO'LL BEAR THE BURDEN2

Going without wheat is an incon-
yenience, nothing worse-for homes
in comfortable circumstances.
1t is no hardship-no danger.
Psychologists all agree that a whole
some diet need not include wheat.
The south fought the Civil war three
years on corn Early New England
did without wheat five years at a
time with no i'll effects, says the
Duncan Banner
Going without wheat is perhaps
more expensive, certainly more
work Not a hardship. but bur
den. Who shah bear the burden?
Shall We ask the women of France
to do It? Do you know what it
means to them?
The women Of France are doing
their own work, doing the nations
work, even doing the work of teams
in the field.
The men are gone-aH but the
younger boys, the aged and the in
valids. In almost every home is a
or one dying with tubercu-
losis-an added care.
French homes have not baked
bread for hundreds of years. They
have not even ovens nor baking
tins in their kitchens. They rely on
the bakery.
If you ask them to make their own
bread--for the bakery cannot supply |
quick breads-the women Of France /,
must add another hour to their long
day of toll
Will you ask them to do that? Or
shall our homes carry the extra
burden of doing without wheat?

TRUTH AND LIES

The world is much edited by the
recent statement of DR.. Won Kuehl-
mann. German foreign minister, be
fore the reichstag:
q do not believe that any respon-
sible man in Germany, not even the
kaiser or the members of the impe-
rial government, ever for a moment
believed they could win the domina-
tion Oh Europe by starting this war
THE idea of world-domination in
Europe is a Utopia, as proved by
Napoleon. The nation which tried
it would, as happened to France,
bleed to death in useless battle and
would be most grievously injured
and lowered in her development
One may here apply Won Moltke's
phrase, Woe to him who sets Eu
rope afire!
"At no moment of our latest his
tory was there less occasion for us
10 start or contribute to the starting
of a conflagration than the moment
in which lie occurred"
Here indeed is curious blending
of truth and lies. such as could hard
ly be concocted anywhere outside of
Prussia, for the consumption of any
people but Prussians. The idea, of
course, is to persuade the crednous
that Germany never undertook to
conquer Europe and dominate the
world The argument is that Ger
many could not have done SO, be
cause world-domination is an impos-
s;ble dream
Bpt if there were not convincing
evidence of German guilt from
thousand sources, the Berlin states
man would have difficulty in con-
vincing the world that Germany
would have been deferred from the
crime she stands charged with by
its demonstrabe folly. We know
the power of self-delusion inherent
in the German mind, and we know
the evil purpose of German rulers
as shown by practice and precept
1t is. true that there was mo occa-
sion for Germany to launch his hor
rible war" 1t is true that neither
Germany nor any other power on
earth can conquer Europe and rule
the world because the other ma
tions win inevitably rise up and p, o..
tect themselves. 1t is true that any
nation embarkng on so ambitious
an adventure will be most grieVous
ly injured and lowered in her devel
opment" That is exactly what Ger
many is discovering today
The rest is lies. We know how
the kaiser, Ludendorff, Hindenburg,
The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1918-07-08

the habit of saving, it is also not out
OF the way TO emphasize the necessi-
ty of taking care of what they, have.
Watch your stamps, Put them away
where they cannot be lost and where
in case of fire they win not be de-
stroyed. DO not defeat the end OF
the Thrift Stamp movement in your
behalf by losing what you invest -
