To Families Of Men
Now In Service

The Banner stands ready to pub
fish news concerning men, with the
colors, whether they be overseas or
in the camps. All articles must, of
course, come signed so that the pa
per will know they are in good faith
Especially is the editor anxious to
know the names of men on the cas-
ualty lists, and would appreciate it.,
should any men be overlooked, if the
families would notify him. 1t is not
his intention to leave out of his col
umns the names or deeds of any Dor
chester an, and so he is appealing to
the families to aid him.
Unlike the big city dailies, the pa
pers in small towns do not receive a
daily casualty list from the Govern
ment, and are handicapped by not
getting the news from one source,
but must gather it wherever it may
be obtained. F or this reason The
Banner is asking the cooperation Of
the families of fighters in order that
no one may be omitted.

70 DELINQUENT RED
CROSS SUBSCRIBERS

Quite a number of people in Hay
wood county who subscribd to the
American Red Cross fund last June
have not yet paid their subscriptions.
Some of them are making no effortsto
pay.
1t is almost inconceivable that any
man who claims citizenship in free
America and who enjoys the protec-
tion and benefits of this great institu-
tion, would subscribe to so sacred
cause as this, and then make no effort
to meet his obligation.
You who have subscribed to this
fund know that every boy who has
donned the khaki and gone to the
front, is fighting for your freedom,
your home and your interests, and you
further know that every dollar of Red
Cross money collected is used to bring
comfort and cheer to the boys in the
trenches.
l believe if you will stop and think
about this matter seriously, you will
call at the First State Bank and pay
off this obligation, which is yc-r rc.s
enable service.
