VICTORY is YET
LONG WAY OFF
We Must Set Our Face for
Long Hard Struggle.
Spokesman Review

There is one way in which we
might lose this war-in letting
the thought slip into the public
mind that victory is near at hand.
hose persons who are holding
.llaC an expectation that the Ger
mans will be defeated this year
or in a few months are hurting
the allied cause.
No one in high authority in al
ly circles entertains that improb-
able thought. Several months
ago former President Taft said it
would take 100000 or 100000
men from the United States and
two or three years to win, and the
consensus of official judgment in
England and France confirms
that belief. 1t is obvious that the
administrations revised plans for
extending the draft ages to IS
and As were adopted on grave in
formation from the French and
British governments that the Ger
man armies are still capable of
striking mighty blows and that
100000 soldiers will be needed
from this side to bring the kaiser
to terms.
We have now, overseas or in
training here, as General March,
chief of staff, told the house COM
mittee Monday, an army of g.
100000 men. General Crowder
explained that the new program
is expected to raise 100000 more
men and that 100000 will be
called by the middle of next year.
General March added that ''we
must not delude ourselves with
the idea that those in the Is and
10 classes are going to be deferred
any length of time. They will
have to be called early next spring
in order to get their train ing in
time to get to France"
Foch, Haig, Pershing, March,
Crowder and others deep in mill
tary knowledge and high in COM
mand know that the enemy is
far from beaten. He is falling
back just now, but he has fallen
back before, only to resume the
offensive again and again with
renewed fury, and nothing could
better suit the kaiser now than to
have the thought take root in the
United States that the job is as
good as done. Once let that i'm
preston become general and there
will follow a widespread and dan
gerous letting down of purpose
at home. Effort would slacken
in many ways-in shipbuilding,
in food conservation, in purchase
of Liberty bonds and war savings
stamps, in raising and training
armies, in supporting the Red
Cross.
Most races are lost in the home
stretch, often by riders or drivers

ROBERT L. TOMLINSON
Has the Most Beautiful Stock and
Most Modern Jewelry Store in
North Mississippi.

IL a man should fall asleep on an
Illinois Central train and awaken in
Tomlinson's jewelry store, if he were
a stranger to Oxford, he would be
willing to make an oath that he was
in a city about the size of Nashville
or Atlanta. The store is the most
beautifully furnished and convenient
ly arranged, and is stocked with the
finest assortment of goods of any sim
liar business in the northern part of
the state. 1t is equipped with mahog-
any wall cases and tables, within

mesh bags; ivory picture frames and
toilet sets, cunning little mahogany

ments of cut glass of the most beau
tiful cut and design.

giant U, and, within these table are

BANK OF OXFORD.
Leading Bank Of Lafayette County
Has Been Successfully Doing Busi-
ness Nearly Half Century.

In staying qualities the age-old
Rock of Gibraltar is 'piker" when
compared with The Bank of Oxford.
Every wave Of the briny deep that
washes against the giant rock has its
corroding influence, and leaves its
granite wal. just so much weaker;
while every panicky financial wave
that has threatened our national sta
bility, during several trying times,
has spent its fury with no effect ON
the safe, sane and conservative Bank
Of Oxford. which has weathered all
storms triumphantly since its estab
liShment nearly half centure ago;
or, to be exact, forty-six years ago.
This bank vas organized and began
business in 1872.
This good bank enjoys the fnai con-
iidenee of the banking public. and no
where in the United States can men
De found who stand higher ir the esti-
nation of the people who know them
best, or who furnish safer or more
constructive banking administration,
than the officers and directors who
govern its policies. According To Gus
tom, this bank issued on March l, a
statement of the condition Of its af-
fairs, and il is indeed a glowing re-
port. The capital, surplus and undi-
vided profits amounted to more II an
sos. 10000, the total deposits had
grown to more than S5i2 ,232. 90; and.
the total resources aggregated more
than S653, ,s54.00. The gain il de-
posits represented in this statement as
against the total deposits on March l.
1917 amounts to s293. 1921.
This is a record that cannot be
beaten by any similar institution in
the country, and il is the cause of
justifiable pride on the part Of the
citizens Of the town and county, as
well as the source of great satisfac-
tion to the gentlemen at the head of
the banks affairs. The amazing
growth and expansion Of this good
bank stands forth as a monument to
the honesty, integrity and financial
wisdom of its officers and directors.
This year this bank has set aside
one per cent Of its capital stock
Amounting TO over six hundred dollars
for the Red Cross and other worthy
charitable purposes.
This bank supplies substantial aid
TO all progressive farming movements.
and is constantly urging the farmers
Of this and adjoining counties TO plant
bigger crops, more diversified and
embracing more foodstuffs. as we'll as
urging the improvement of cattle and
horeses. IL has been a cons istent
booster Of the three Liberty Locns
launched by the government. II mas
taken more than it's allotment Of each
and has bought quantities Of space in
the local pape~ which il has assd not
as an advertisement OF its own buSi-
ness. but explaining to the public the
meaning Of War Savings Stamps. and
urging everybody TO invest in this
branch Of the governments money
raising plan. Inc hank is patriotic
in deed as in belief, and is fully co
operating with national directors in
the successful effort to finance our
boys ''over there and cur workers
