HENRY COUNTY WENT
OVER THE TOP
Third Liberty Loan Quota Was
$l57,500; Henry County,
Subscribed s225,O0O 4

Yes, Henry went over the top
in The Third Liberty Loan sever
al days before the last day. 1t
seemed to be quite a surprise to
those at central headquarters in
St Louis for they called us over
long defiance to ask if it was
really true. and We're told that
they simply didn't know Henry
county people. Even though
we're slow, they know now that
they can count on US.
The amount asked for was
$157, 5O0 end the amount signed
for was a little over 1925. 600.
That's Iroot enough.
The last drive was made FIJI
day evening st the Dixie and
was conducted by city salesman
j. w. AcliD who put ON "a sale OF
II boy scouts and 81 girls, in
Guiding the Camp Fire Girls. X.
C. Girls and a few others, all OF
whom were masked.
Single sales ranged in price
from 81 to 81, 900, the total being
about $40, 900. Money on all
sales under $50 was donated to
the Red Cross and amounted to
$67.

his idea from Bowling Green

cation met Tuesday evening with
a full attendance for the pur-
pose of hiring teachers and fix
ing the salaries for the coming
scholastic year.
Prof. M. M. Phillips applica-
lion to serve his fifth year as

cepted.

pointed successor to Miss Moore,
and Miss Ruby Humphreys was
appointed to fill the other vacan-
cy. Miss Moore's resignation
will be learned with regret by
patrons of this school. 1t is un-
stood that Miss Moore will per-
haps enter some department of
active war work, in which she
has unquestionably shown abili-
ty as we'll as inclination in the
local work. The application of
Miss Cayce, principal, and all
other teachers at Lee school
were accepted.

We, the officers and executive
committee of the Third Liberty
Loan Organization of Henry
county, desire to express our ap-
probation of the splendid result
of the campaign, a result which
we realize was made possible,
not through our efforts, but by
the efficient work of the district
organizations and every man,
woman and child who bought a
bond. AS an evidence that the
spirit of patriotism is abroad
among our country people, twas
not necessary for the banks to
buy a single bond; the people
did it this time and to them be-
longs the credit, and a prayer Of
thanksgiving will go up from the
heart of every Henry county
boy on the bloody field Of battle
when these boys learn that the
folks back home are ION the
job.

SUSPENDING FUEL ORDER
APICTURE NO ARTIST PAINTS
Scene Should Be Preserved For Poster
iiy And Would Go Well As a
Steel Engraving.

Ralph Block, Washington corre-
spondent of the New York Tribune,
has the following to say:
A lot of history is going to waste
in Washington, Garfield restored the
nations Mondays yesterday, but of all
the journalists and secretaries who
were present at the ceremony none of
them thought to picture the scene for
the gaze of posterity Garfield Sus-.
pending the Fuel Order" in steel en-
craving or mezzotint, would go we'll
over a mantelpiece so years from
now, when the history of the great
war is being put out in IL volumes,
morocco.
Like all great moments, it appeared
commonplace The newspaper men
waited in semi-circle of chairs, how
cred over by the secretaries. Then
DR. Garfield entered
There are a good many things to
remember about the Fuel Administra-
tor. He is the son of a man who was
President of the United States. He
comes from Ohio He used to be a
lawyer He was once president of the
Chamber of Commerce of Cleveland.
He was once actively and successfully
engaged in the coal business on a
large scale. Destiny grabbed him and
made him a college president
He is a middle-sized man, with a
sturdy body and large head The
head is fascinating. You can't for
get it. Sometimes it is coal bust
ness head, sometimes it is a college
president head. He is we'll and care
fully dressed. They are the clothes
of the president of the Chamber of
Commerce of Cleveland. The voice
and accent are clear. distinct, a bit
clipped, slightly arbitrary-profes-
sionaI and legal together. His man
ner is without hesitation, definite,
and what he has to say well schemed
His backgrounds must be well or
dered, too; his answers are always
ready. And he is never apologetic.
He stands with one leg slightly
bent, turns about the cycle as he
talks, carries a delicate pair of nose
glasses in one hand for emphasis and
ease. From the side the head is not
merely massive but impassive. From
the front the mouth and eyes make
it human. The eyes are thoughtful
And while Garfield is still an ap-
; sparently youngish man, it is hard tc
find in his face any sign of humor.
Anyway. what should Fuel Ad-
ministrator want of humor?

Bone dry legislation for Maryland

on the Anti-Saloon League that they

TO support any bill at this session
that will tend to further agitate the

noted is in the case OF any dry coun-

vent the introduction OF liquor into

who voted wet are ready to support
such measure Farther than this
they will not go, Even the Radicals
are indisposed TO make the State bone
dry at this time
It Is stated there was an informal
conference yesterday at which II was
intimated that the Governor did not
believe it wise to force the issue al
this session. so that even though the
House should attempt to pass a bone
dry bill, il would not receive any con
sideration in the Senate.
One Of the Senators who voted con
sistently for the amendment stated
that he would not support such a bill,
because he believed in forcing pro-
hibition on Baltimore while all the
other large cities adjoining remained
wet would be unwise. lie said he had
voted for the amendment because
federal law would place all business
centers On the same footing and af-
ford TO those who had invested CAPT
tai at stake sufficient time TO protect
their interests. To drive the Mary
land investors to the wall, as had
been proposed was, in his Judgment

when we pass a federal amendment,
and for one viii not consent to vote
for a Statewide bill ] think Mr..
Grabbe understands the situation, and
believe he has too much sense to
attempt to force additional legisla-
ton
The fact that the county Legislators
have ascertained that the sentiment
in Baltimore City is Overwhelmingly
opposed to a dry law has also in1u-
enced them to abandon the bill origi-
nally proposed. Some of them have
ascertained that the attack made
upon the working classes by Senator
Bennett, when he said they were
made up for foreigners is being re
sented, and that under existing con
ditions it would be dangerous to stir
up more trouble.
