A Washington dispatch few days
ago told of visit of Congressman
Byrnes to President Wilson on a con-
fidential mission, and the writer says
that lit is known that Mr.. Byrnes
enjoys the confidence of the presi-
dent" This is interesting in view of
the fact that from some sources the
attempt has been made to circulate
the report that the relations between
Mr.. Byrnes and the president have
not been so cordial. It is fact that
Mr.. Byrnes enjoys an intimate friend
ship with the president, and that the
president sends for the congressman
on occasion to confer with him on
matters of vital Importance. Mr..
Byrnes occupies a very important
position in congress, being a member
of the important appropriations COM
mittee, upon which the financial con-
duct of the government rests.

FREE From ALL TAXES
U. S. War Savings Stamps Are
Free From Federal, State
Or Local Taxation--PaY
Good interest.

One of the advantages Of the war
savings stamps as an investment is
that they are not subject to taxation.
The following statement in reference
to this feature has been issued by the
war savings committee:
when preparing for the issuing OF
Thrift Stamps and War Savings Ger
tifcates, the national administration
very wisely decided that they would
not be subject to any taxeS-federal,
state or local. In this respect, they
are entirely unique, being free when
almost everything else of value is sub
ject to impost.
CAS- the amount that an individual
may hold is limited to $1,000, this con-
cession does not deal unjustly toward
other security holders. 1t is simply
an inducement to the small investor
to make all unusual effort in his own
country's behalf by depositing as
much of his surplus with the govern
ment as possible. Those who buy
these little bonds-and all should do
it-should understand in advance of
the coming days Of taxation return in
April that whatever of their earned
savings or surplus derived from eco
nomics is converted into Thrift
Stamps and War Savings Certificates
need not be recorded upon the assess
or's blank. AS the interest and prin-
cipal are payable in 1923, neither is it
necessary to make mention of the in
vestments in the return to the in
come tax collector.
"They are, as stated, absolutely free
and, as they also pay per cent. COM
pound interest, are the best securities
that one can buy IN these troubled
times.

Appropriations For Relief Work
In France Announced By
Red Cross War Council

: The Relief work Of the American
Red Cross in France is already well
under way, and appropriations for
this work to the amount Of $30,519,-
259.60 have been made by the Red
Cross War Council to cover the period
from the time when the United States
entered the war up to April 80, 1918.
OF this amount, s14,01s,SS9.50 is for
military relief, under which head
comes everything pertaining to hos
pitfalls and hospital supplies, canteen
service, and arrangements for the rec
reation and comfort Of the American
soldiers when of duty.
For civilian relief, including aid to
refugees, care and prevention Of tn.
berculosis, care Of children, re-educa-
tion of mutilated and blind soldiers
and general relief work in six districts
Of the devastated area, a total Of $9,-
556,4S2.15 has been appropriated.
The bureau Of supplies and other
administrative bureaus will receive
$3,359,541.75. Under this head come
all transportation facilities, the de-
partment Of engineering, the expenses
of q warehouses and insurance on
goods stored therein, as well as all
Office expenses in France.
Under the head Of miscellaneous
activities, for which $3,5S3,346.20 has
been appropriated, come such things
as relief Of the families Of sick. and
wounded French soldiers, all emer-
gencies, the American ambulance
fund, food for the French people, the
Red Cross health center and other
similar work.
In addition to this amount, an ap-
preparation Of $7,063,649.12 has been
made for the purchase in the United
States Of supplies for shipment to
France.
OF this appropriation, only a very
small percentage goes for salaries as
more than 3-4 Of the Red Cross work
ers in France are volunteers, great
many Of whom even pay their own
expenses. It has been estimated by
the War Council that for every dollar
donated to the war fund, $1.02 IL spent
in direct relief, the .02 being interest.

eighth chapter of Deuteronomy. He
related how after the civil war con-
ditions were bad in the South, and
the people were in sores circumstanc-
es, but that few years ago the eco
nomic and industrial resources OF the
South began to be exploited, and
prosperity began pouring into the
Southern States. The present war
had done much to develop these re-
sources to highly profitable state,
and the placing of the army canton
ments had contributed largely to
bringing to the South much pros
perity.
The marrow of Dr.. Poteat's ad-
dress on this subject was to warn
the people Of the peril of prosperity.
The making of money is a worthy
ambition, but it is fraught with many
hidden and possibly unseen dangers.
He pleaded with the people to use
their wealth not only wisely, but for
the elevation of mankind and the
furtherance of the Kingdom of God
on earth. National wealth had i'm
perilled nations in Bible days, and
the peril is present today. This
wealth can be of untold benefit to the
world, or it can sink our own nation
into disaster.
He pleaded with the people to
give of their means to the worthy
causes now presented, and to hum BILE
themselves before God.

We don't know whether there is
an ordinance in Bamberg regulating
motorcycles or not, but if there is
not there ought to be. We see quite
a few of these motor vehicles in the
city frequently, and we notice that
they are to be frequently seen on the
sidewalks. This appears to us as
being very dangerous, and we sug-
gest to the city council the advisa-
bility of regulating these vehicles
before some fatal accident brings
tragedy into the town.

Has Largest Per Capita Of Money In
vested in War Savings Stamps.

Charleston, 8. G. - The town OF

capita sales up to dste of all the towns
Ia the state. The population Of Wood
ruff Is 1880 and the sales up to Feb
ruary 16 were $2,44128, wich repre-.
sents $1.30 worth of war savings

Special mention should be made OF
the manner in which the colored peo-

the call for the Red Cross war

a splendid and substantial way, and
their contributions have not only
been generous but general. Great en-

the colored folks all over the county,
and they are to be heartily commend
ed for their patriotic stand.

MONTEZUMA SAYS TEN
DER CONSCIENCE NO
LIBERTY BOND ALIBI
Mennonites of Community Are In
Difficulties with Aggressive 10y
aIists, Made EN- Buy Bonds

The Mennonite population of Mon
tezuma township have run up against
snag in their stand of no assistance
for any war measure. They have un-
til this time subscribed to neither
Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., nor Liberty
Bonds and also turned down the food
conservation proposition.
When the Third Liberty Loan came
up the citizens of this township de-
termined that the Mennonite citizen
ship should carry their part of the
load A committee waited on Rev.
Peter A. Friesen and Rev. John A.
Koehn early in the week but were
turned down as usual, the excuse be-
ing that their religious conscience
would not permit them doing any
thing in the matter. Monday night a
notice was nailed to the door of the
Mennonite church four miles north
west of town to the effect that they
were expected to do their part and
that out of an apportionment of $10,-
400 they would be expected to sub
scribe for $4,000 worth of the bonds.
A church meeting was held by the
, Mennonite brethren on Wednesday
and they reported to the Liberty Loan
committee that evening that they had
decided not to subscribe. Thursday
the aroused citizens took the matter
into their own hands and Bernhard H.
Koehn, one of the members was given
an opportunity to subscribe for a
bond and on his refusal he was escort
ed to the barber shop where he was
given a free shave; shortly after
wards Aaron Koehn was treated in
like manner and then forced to buy
25c Thrift stamp, this being all the
money he could raise.
Made EN- Buy
Rev. John A. Koehn came to town
in the afternoon and hearing what
was being done started for the coun-
try, in company with brother Men,
MONTE from Haskell county, by way
of the railroad. They were overhaul
ed couple of miles out of town and
brot back and both became the own
ers of Liberty Bonds. Several others
were given the opportunity to buy a
bond, with the alternative Of having
their. ,whiskers trimmed if they did

not invest and in, all instances except
one they purchased the bonds, the one
exception was given a shave.
Rev. Peter A. Friesen the head of
the church has skipped the country
and it is thot that government off
Gals are on his trail for disloyal ut
terances and pro-Germanism. The
loyal citizens of Montezuma for the
past year have been carrying dou-
BILE load of over-subscribing to the va
rious war funds by reason of the do
nothing stand of the Mennonites, but
it is hoped that the lesson which has
been given this time will have the de-
sired effect and that in the future
they will do their duty.-Hutchinson

WITH OUR EMERGENCY
HOME DEMONSTRATION
AGENT
By Miss Ellen Nelson

The Government wishes to start a
Sugar Beet Club in Seward County.
They have sent material for club of
sixteen and we wish to organize that
club as soon as possible. In order to
become beet raiser call up 47O and
ask to become a member of the club
that means that you receive a free
package of seed and instructions how
to plant and care for the beet-and
keep record of results.
Instructions have been received
from Garden City as to planting and
caring for beets in the southwest, and
any information will be furnished
free. The first fifteen who apply will
receive the beets.
The purpose is to increase the pro-
duction of sugar in the southwest.
We are trying out new vegetable
and if we succeed this year on a small
scale we will increase our production
for another year. Call 47O and help
a government project, also receive
the benefit of free offer and do
service to your country.
The good work that has been begun
in the country is a credit to the boys
and girls of Seward county. Wo|
know it is new thing for our boys
and girls to raise a garden when TIE.
have hardly seen one, for the wind
and draught has destroyed our gar
dens in past years. We want to raise
our production of Seward county
about 800 per cent and in so doing
we must have cooperation among
the club members. Every boy and
girl must attend every club meeting
and help the other boys and girls.
The teachers in each community are
the natural leaders and we hope they
will take up this free service for their
country by meeting twice month
with the gardeners.
