Seeks to Cheer Hearers.

Announcement by the Prussian war
minister to the reichstag that "the
so-called French reserve army no
longer exists is believed by officers
here to be a design to create mis-
apprehension of the facts In the minds
of Gen. Won STEMS hearers. To some
extent 1t is regarded as an admission
by the German military rulers that
they must say something to encourage
the civil population If they are to
continue with the great offensive in
the west that has thus far brought
them no nearer a Germanmade peace,
despite Its enormous cost In lives.
If the Prussian war minister intend
ed to convey the impression that the
allied reserve power had been ex-
hausted by the German assault. the
actual situation at the front stands
as a fiat contradiction. His words,
however. might mean a wholly diff
ferent thing, although designed to be
construed as the announcemnt of a
great victory.
Pooling Program Changed.
Before the German attack was
made the supreme war council at YER
sailles had worked out a program
for limited pooling of forces under
Gen: Foch; as supreme strategist'
bile force Of some 100000 men COM
posed of 100000 French, 100000 Brit
tsh, 100000 American and 100000
Italian troops. Each of the COM
manders would have contributed from
his mobile reserves his portion of the
interallied reserve army which was
to have been employed mainly to sup
port offensive operations on fronts
selected by the Versailles council.
The organization Of this army was
never completed. however. the emer-
gency created by the German Of
fensive causing a wholly new pooling
agreement, under which Gen. Foch
became supreme commander. He now
directs the employment of all active
as we'll as reserve armies No army
Foch reserve army" because. as
supreme commander, that officer has
under him all of the forces facing
the German onslaught.
Touches Heart of Problem.
The Prussian war minister's state
ment, however, admittedly touches
the very heart of the problem facing
Gen. Foch. The fact that, although
FL. the allied and American forces
have not struck back in anything ap-
preaching major operation is re-
garded as conclusive proof that the
supreme commander backed by the
supreme war council. is striving by
German rush and exhaust its Of
fensive power without depicting his
own reserve forces.
II he is successful. and there is now
that the battle Is half won. he will
be able to turn the tables on the
enemy ultimately and use these -e.
serves to rush Germany bit.

Buy Cheap Money

Now, as always, the secret of
success in financial affairs is,
Buy things that are too cheap
and sell things that are too
high" This has been the bone
of contention for all time be-
tween the two sides of the
market - the bulls and the bears.
When a man sells a thing on the
market it is because he thinks it
is high, and the same is true Of
the buyer except that he thinks
it is too low, or at least will go
higher.
Just at this time there is a
great difference in the market
price of many commodities, in
GLIDING labor. as compared with
a few years ago. Almost every
commodity has advanced in price
until we hear that things are so
high that it is hard to live. This
is only another way of saying
that money has declined in price,
for money is as much commo-
dity as any other thing that en-

According to the Meridian Dis
patch there is authority for stat
ing that there are about twelve
thousand slackers and deserters
in this state, mostly negroes,
and there is some disposition to
criticise local authorities for not
taking action in the several
cases. If the matter stands ev-
eryWhere as it does in this part
of this county the local authori-
ties are in no way to blame.
Four men have been taken into
custody and in two cases the
evidence was clear that the par
ties were within 1.-The draft age
and had not registered. This
information was communicated
to the federal authorities and no
action was taken, so we are ad-
vised.

AiS iSdoOll iIdL lilOHty idS hS-
clined is because the nations Of
the world have been in SO great
need of so many commodities
that the demand for commodities
has exceeded the desire to hold
money. And again, because the
of this great demand the turn
over has been so rapid that the
oil of commerce" has literally
dripped from the wheels.
Now, il money IS cheap, and it
certainly is, it behooyes every
person who possibly can to buy
money. You can sell anything
you happen to have for money,
and for more money than has
been the case for many, many
years. The opportunity should
not be allowed to pass. Every
minute of time can be coined
into money and it should be done
both from an economic and pat
riotic standpoint. Besides, there
is a great incentive to economy,
for when you deny yourself of
something now you make a big
saving as expressed in terms of
money. And remember, money
is not going to be cheap always.
Shortly after peace is made, and
perhaps before, prices will begin
to decline and will continue to do
so until the dollar you save now
will purchase a great deal more
than it will now, perhaps several
times as much.
When we say buy money, we
do not mean that in the strictest
sense of the word, we mean get
money and turn it into some
thing expressed in terms of
m9ney. If the money is taken
in and kept hidden away it will
advance rapidly and the oppor-
tunity to buy cheap money will
soon be a thing of the past. But
if the people will buy up this
cheap money with their labor and
invest it in bonds and good
securities the ready cash can be
used over and over again and the
market will remain open for a
longer period.
Then the question naturally
arises how best to invest cheap
money. There are many ways
in which money may be profita-
bly, invested. And there are
more ways that it may be lost
and that, too, when the investor
thinks he is about to make a
pile" For the man not acquain-
ted with the wiles of the promot-
err, there is no better investment
than government securities. In
fact they are always as safe as the
deed to your home. Just at this
time our government is offering
some very attractive securities
for the man of small means who
cannot afford to speculate. The
very best investment for
such an one is War Savings
Stamps. These stamps are bet
ter than gold, for you can buy
a five dollar stamp for SAG any
time that month. Were you to
lay aside this amount in money
!. would be JUS. that amount at
the end of any number of years.
War Savings Stamps carry with
them four per cent compound
interest, and besides you can
get your money at three per cent
within ten days. You cannot
lose and these stamps cannot
fiuctuate on the market. They
simply are an investment with
no speculative value attached.
And the beauty is that you can
invest as small a sum as twenty
five cents, and you may invest
as much as thousand dollars.
