Earn and Give" Campaign.

Everyone will remember the great
Y. M. C. A. drive that was made
last fall in our county. You remem-
Der how splendidly we went over the
top for more than twice the amount
asked for. Well, this fall, Novem-
Der IL, there will be another drive
for the Y. M. c. A. for our boys.
Only this drive is to be much larger
one than last fall. The War De-
partment has combined six other war
activities with the Y. M. C. A. They
are the Y. M. C. A., Salvation Army,
Jewish Welfare Board, Knights Of
Columbus, Library Association, and
War Camp Community Service.
In order that the needs of all these
be met the War Department has ask
ed that 100000 be raised. To
do this great thing everyone will
have to do his best. Every person Is
to be enlisted. The boys and girls
are to be organized into the Earn
and Give division and are to get
back of the soldier boys and help
care for them. 1t will take SIS to
care for a soldier in the "Y" for
three months. Every boy and girl
will want to do that much for SOL
der.
In order that this work may be
done the best by the boys and girls,
conference for boys is to be held
at Jackson Octo. As. Two hundred
high school boys are wanted there.
Obion will send some of her boys to
this conference that they may learn
how to do this work and help to
make this part of the big campaign
go over the top in November. The
writer has been asked to serve as
the chairman of this committee, and
he asks the cooperation of everyone
in the county.

We will not stay for friend or foe;

But church is serious and sacred too

r. B. Marshall Wounded.

R. B. Marshall was wounded last
Monday afternoon, about 3 o'clock,
on the street in Union City just north
of the Nailling-Keiser Hardware
store. Without undertaking to get
all the facts it is understood that
Marshall was advancing towards J..
L. Glover, Jr., and that Glover
warned him not to come any further.
Just exactly how it occurred we do
not know, but Glover fired a pistol
at Marshall, the ball entering the
right side and ranged downward I'M
der the hip bone, dropping to the
pavement. Marshall walked to a car
and stated that he was going home
and that Glover had shot him. 1t
is said that Glover had no intention
of trying to kill, but of defending
himself from assault. He was arrest
ed on a charge of assault with in
tent to kill and taken before Esq. R.
c. Reynolds. His attorney moved to
waive examination, and the defend
ant was bound over to the Circuit
Court in the sum of $1,000, his
bondsmen including a number of
well known citizens.
Marshall was taken home and in
the evening his brothers were pres
ent, including Drs. T. e. and C. C.
Marshall, and probe was made in
to the wound, the operation being
done by Drs. F. w. Watson and ].
B. Hibbitts. 1t was found that the
bullet had not penetrated the alb
dominal cavity nor any vital points,
and the patient was reported to be
doing well.
The affair is supposed to be the
outcome of an old trouble, probably
renewed or aggravated by other mat
tiers. All this however is surmise
1t will be for the court to determine.

Judge Roberts Views.

Senator D. P. Caldwell endorses
Judge Roberts speech-making tour
and gives his reasons for so doing:
The Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor, Judge Roberts. happily stated
thru the public press a few days
ago. that after the pressing matter
of the Fourth Liberty Loan was duly
attended to by the people of the
State, he should regard it as his duty
to emphasize by a canvass the i'm
perative necessity of certain legisla-
tion bv the next General Assembly,
and furthermore said this canvass
was especially wise in view of the
fact that our legalized primary law
had failed to make any provision for
a State Convention, wherein the
party could formulate its wants into
a platform.
This is a splendid idea, and will
inform the public and the personnel
of the incoming Legislature just
what measures he considers of State
wide and paramount Importance, the
members being thereby enabled to
take time by the forelock and, until
the meeting of that body, consider
the wisdom or unwisdom OF the
nominees suggestions, whether such
suggestions be new constructive leg
islation, or only repeal of existing
vicious law.
To mend the constant and growing
deficit in the States revenue will
be the most difficult piece of legisla-
ton (for the last legislation failed)
yet cutting of large salaries and
wiping out of sinecures, though in
my judgment will be only piece
meal treatment of our trouble, can
only be drop in the bucket towards
making the revenues keep pace with
the expenditures.
Any measure curing this crying
evil will attract and hold the atten-
ton of the voter and tax payer, and
it should have the right of way over
other legislation, besides this ques-
ton discussed from every angle be-
fore the converting of the Legisla-
ture will enable members to vote
wisely and promptly by reason OF
ample time for a full consideration
of all important measures. l am OPP
posed to the general principle that
the Legislature should pass county
local laws on petty matters. l favor
a general law giving the county the
right to settle such local matters by
ballot. In view of the war-wrecked
helpless condition of the world, and
over-shadowing issues thrust to the
front in our country, the incoming
Legislature should not engage in any
'Fol-de-rol," or marking time. Cut
out all local laws. Enact only those
of vital interest to the State at large
1t can be done in As days, then ad-
journ sine die.

A Woman Gives Out
Important Secrets

Madame Langford, well known beauty
specialist, in q recent interview told the
secrets of her success in improving the COM
plexion. She says: The average man has
better complexion than woman of same age
men use lots of soap and water in shaw
ing and the massaging necessary prevents
wrinkles, etc. Women are too apt to de-
pend on a casual washing with cold water,
then try to cover up defects with powder
and rouge and this makes the complexion
worse. She must give the skin careful
attention at night-sleeping with powder,
dust and CRIME of the day on the face will
soon coarsen the finest skin and cause
various complexion troubles. Use a soft
wash cloth, rubbed on Velvetina Complexion
Soap and warm water, and after cleansing
the soft, oily Velvetina Massage, using
an upward and outward movement with the
finger tips, working out impurities from
the pores of the skin. This treatment soon
produces marvellous results Then in the
morning, apply Velvetina Vanishing Cream
and Velvetina Face Powder to protect the
delicate surface Of the skin from the sun
and wind and this gives the whole secret
of a perfect complexion for women, ADJ,

All Quiet ~ on the Western Front.
AT brigade headquarters | happened
10 overhcar conversation between our
G. O. c. general officer commanding
and the divisional commander. From
this conversation | learned that we
were to lombard the German lines for
eight days, and ON the first Of July the
big push" was to commence.
In few days orders were issued to
that effect, and 1t was common prop
erty all along the line.
On the afternoon of the eighth day Of
our "strafeing,' Atwell and | were sit
ting In the front-llne trench smoking
flags and making out our reports of the
previous nights tour of the trenches,
which we had to turn in to headquar-
tiers the following day, when an order
was passed down the trench that Old
Pepper requested twenty volunteers to
go over on a trench raid that night to
try and get few German prisoners for
information purposes. l Immediately
volunteered for this job, and shook
hands with Atwell, and went to the
rear to give my name to the officers in
charge of the raidlng party.
was accepted. worse luck.
At . :45 that night we reported to the
brigade headquarters dugout to receive
instructions from Old Pepper
After reaching this dugout we lined
up In semicircle around him, and he
addressed us as follows:
"All | want you boys to do is to go
over to the German lines tonight, sur
prise them, secure a couple of prison
ers. and return Immediately. Our ar
tillery has bombhrded that section OF
the line for two days and personally I
believe that that part of the German
trench is unOccupied, so just get cou-
pie Of prisoners and return as quickly
ms possible"
The sergeant on my right, In an I'M
dertone. whispered to me:
"Say. Yank. how are we going to get
a couple Of prisoners If the old fool
thinks personally that that part Of the
trench Is unoccupled. sounds kind Of
