An important meeting of the
Student Body was called on We'd
nesday, specifically for the pur.
pose of considering the football
situation. Due to Mr.. Strong's
going. the boys are without a
coach. This is especially regret
able because the prospects for
"A winning team are good and
the boys are eager TO continue
the sport so well begun. II any
one fears that this may interfere
with the serious business Of
school in itself in connection
with the war work. a brief sur

attention TO the conversations I'm

their minds of this mistaken

TO ALL COUNTY CHAIRMEN.

In order to inform county chairmen,
who seem to have overlooked an i'm
portant instruction in connection with
the pledge drife June %, the follow
ing is authorized by Director Preston
in regard to disposition of pledge
cards:
"Pledge cards are not to be sent to
Washington, Neither are they to be
sent to state headquarters. Some of
the county chairmen have done one
and some the other. This has occa-
stoned delay and additional labor in
getting them back to the chairmen to
whom they belong.
County chairmen must list all
pledges alphabetically if possible and
by civil districts, school districts, or
other subdivisions used in the county
drive. Two copies of these lists are to
be made. One copy is to be sent to
state headquarters at Chattanooga
and the other is to be retained by the
county chairman. From these lists
check is to be kept hereafter of the
of pledges.
"The pledge cards, after being thus
listed, are to be delivered to banks,
oostoffices or other selling agencies
'or use in keeping account of purchas-
IS and of giving the signer credit as
lie redeems his pledge. All this was
covered in original instructions, but it
Gems to have escaped the attention Of
number of county chairmen. 1t is
most important that the pledge cards

LIBERTY WHEAT
HARVEST ASKED
Farmers Urged to Produce Great
Wheat Crop in 1919.

Washington, July PA great lib
erty wheat harvest is being asked Of
American armers in a national grow
ing program today by Secretary Hous-
ton, after full consideration of the in
creasing needs for this essential food
at home and in the allied nations.
Not less than 45,000.000 acres of
winter wheat is called for in this falls
sowing, and Secretary Houston sug-
gests that approximately 47,500,00O
acres could be sown if conditions are
especially favorable. The larger in
crease, it was pointed out, would bet
ter meet the estimated needs of the
allied nations and the population at
home.
From the minimum acreage called
for, which is only about the average
Of the five years Of 1912, it is sti-
mated that 636,00O,OO0 bushels of VIM
ter wheat might be expected, and from
the suggested larger acreage approx
imately 667000,000 bushels should be
harvested. These production estimates
are based upon an average yield Of

APPEAL TO CLASS ONE
Urges Then to Begin Military Training

appeal to all men of class one, calling

ton as chosen soldiers to defend the
country and not wait until they aetu-
ally have been called into camp.
The men are urged to interest them

physically for the rigorous duties of a
soldiers life.

fraternity of active patriots" says
Gen. Crowder. Encourage those who
are weak. Inspire the Indifferent. In
form the ignorant. Search out the
slackers.
'"Have you ever thought that our en-
envy is attacking us, not only in Eu-
rope, but at home? Have you realiz-
ed that his special trickery consists in
seeking to make men disloyal here in
our country? Have you tried to dis
cover and suppress the enemy's work
here in the peaceful regions of our own
homes?

soldiers out of you. The sooner you

DOLLARS OR DEATHS.

The sorrows of Armenia still appeal
to all Christian people. We read that
children egerly picking grains from
the dung of animals in the street has
been common sight An American
doctor, travelling down the mountain
side Of Lebanon, noticed in the distance
throng of little ones, and wondered
why so many were gathered in one
place. Upon coming near he discov-
cred that a camel had died by the road
side, and that these famished children
were, in desperation, picking the last
shreds of flesh from the skeleton of the
fallen beast. In Aleith no grapes are
expected because children have eat
en- the shoots and young leaves in their
awful hunger. In many cases the
children have actually plucked the
wheat to eat the seeds clinging to the
roots. Our readers have responded
nobly, but we must go on helping, for
it is a cose of dollars or deaths. We
send all relief to headquarters with
out cent of deduction, so please help
the starving ones before it is too late.

SECRETARY WILSON
GIVES REASON FOR
LABOR MOBILIZATION

Secretary of Labor Wilson makes
this explanation of the general mobili-
cation of labor for war industries, re-
cruiting for which is to begin August
l under direction of the United States
employment service
Beginning with common labor, this
service will gradually take charge of
the mobilizing and placing of all labor
for war industries employing 100 or
more workers. This will profoundly
affect all other industries and all 9th
er workers. 1t will correct the abuses
and troubles growing out of the large
labor turnover with the consequent
disruption of regular work.
Every safeguard must be taken to
protect the standard of living and the
morale of the wage earners. Espe-
pecially must care be taken to keep the
age limit of those who enter industry
at a high level, lest we rob our future
citizenship of the right to growth and
time for education. We must also
take knowledge of the dangers attend
ant upon the large entrance of wo-
men into heavy and hazardous indus
tries.
'The exigencies of war times should
not be made the occasion for the break
ing down Of those standards of hours,
wages and conditions of work which
are designed to protect the childhood,
the womanhood, and the motherhood
of the present and the future.
Experts tell US it takes from 6 to
10 workers at home to keep one SOL
der on the firing line in Europe. What
ever, therefore, helps to mobilize, dis
tribute and energize those who do the
work of our war industries has be-
come as important factor in winning
the war as the prowess of our armies
in the field or our navy on the seas"

1877 bushels an acre, and an abandon
ment of 10 per cent Of the area sown
on account of winter kill.
Definite acreage, both minimum and
maximum, for each state, have been
worked out, and campaign will be
launched Immediately by the depart
ment of agriculture, state agricultural
colleges and leading farmers through
out the country to have the farmers
make good their state quotas.
Recommendations for the 1919 acreage
of spring wheat and other spring crops
and regarding livestock will be issued
later by the department. Acreage of
winter wheat suggested by the de-
partment for sowing this fall by states
include Figures in Thousands. e.,
Thousands nnit+ad.
The states-graphic. (Brownsville, Tenn.) 1???-1984, 1918-07-26

The suggested minimum acreage is
z per cent more than sown last autumn
and the maximum acreage is II per
cent more. In some states, where a
large increase of winter wheat acre
age is suggested. it is planned CORES
pondingly to reduce the spring wheat
acreage. The department experts
point out that winter wheat is a safer
crop and produces a larger yield to
the acre, so the exchange is desirable
in sections where that is practicable.
The unusual weather conditions of
the last two years are responsible for
the increased acreage of spring wheat
this year in some sections where win
ter wheat usually is more exclusively
grown.

are eating simpler and more nutritive
foods.
'sThe substitution of victory bread
for wheat bread" DR.. Wiley continued,
will mean much to the nation. It Is
better dietetically and hygienically.
It has more Of the life essentials need
ed by the body, the essential mineral
salts and vitamimes. Maybe the taste
is not quite so good but as we learn
the proper mixing of the substitutes
with the wheat -four we can make it
just as palatable as the whole wheat

slip back into her riot of high living

through the voluntary sacrifice, let us
treasure it as the great jewel won in

Opposed to DIR. Wiley's wonderful
canvass of the future America is the
picture of the under-nourished Ger
many.
"Under-nourished and starving Ger
many will produce weak children, Says
DR.. Wiley, "and without sufficient milk

adults in turn producing another gen
aration of weakly offspring. The fu-
ture of the race of the central empires
