NOTICE TO EXCHANGES.

In complying with the rullng OF
the War Industries Boad, the Herald
does not want to part company with
any of our old friends among the
newspapers of Mississippi. As we
understand it we are allowed to sub
scribe for one another's publications.
So the Herald will subscribe spot
cash for any weekly in Mississippi
which will also do the same with us.
Our rate is 81. you are allowed to
drop yours if above that to 20 per
cent of regular price. This will
mean no wastage IN paper stock as
nothing is more conducive to carry
ing on the war than an up to the
minute" press and how can we be SO
without we know whats going on
over the state in the way drive and
other activities. Its to cut out that
useless sending of exchanges that
are never read nor appreciated. If we
understand the policy of the govern
ment aud right kind of suppression
too for that matter. but certainly
they do not wish to render our week
ly newspapermen MERE PRovINCIALs
by restricting them to a 40 mile area
of reading of kindred periodicals.
We have as much right to subscribe
for one another's papers as the indi-
vidual has to subscribe for papers
and magazines as they may appeal to
his preference and pocketbooR, SO
let's exercise it, but not in spirit
of evasion of war time paper conser-
walton, but in a spirit of earnest 60
operation.

FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN
CAMPAIGN IS AT HAND


rho Fourth Liberty Loan campaign,
TO give every American an opportunity
90 lend to his own government money
20 win the war and drive the Hun
back over the Rhine Is now at hand.
In every county in the state there is a
Liberty Loan committee, composed of
loyal, energetic citizens, who are sub,
scyibing literally themselves and en-
oourag1ng others to subscribe.
It n believed that the task Of OBJ
tanning subscriptions will be far cas-
Ter In this loan than in the past, de-
spite the greatly increased quotas
givsn every zone and county. For,
surely the American people have
learned by this time what Liberty
Loan means. what It will do for the
country and what it will do for the
man. whether he be farmer or mer-
chant or laborer. who saves his mon
ey and lends It, with interest, to
Uncle Sam. There is really ne rea-
son why one loyal American should
have to chase another loyal American
all over ten-acre Aeld to ask him
to do his duty.
1t Is believed that IN this campaign
. much greater proportion Of citizens
will go voluntarily to the banks or to
the committee and make their sub
scription directly, obtaining a Liberty
Loan button and thus declaring they
have done their duty to their country
A great many OF our citizens have
registered for the new draft, but they
realize that there is but slight oppor-
tunity Of their services being actually
required In the war. 1t would be an
excellent thing II these men whose
names are now on the roll and who
feel sure Of exemption because of age
or family dependents or disabilities
would consider themselves, even now,
in the service" and devote whatever
part Of their income they can spare
70 lending to their government.
The war is costing the United
States sixty-sevsn million dollars
day. 1t is our war. our war bill. and
= II IN to us to pay It.

FARMER TO PUT

Atlanta. os.-Ths Treasury Depart
ment Of the United States is depend.
Ing upon the farmer to put the fourth
Liberty Loan triumphantly over the
top in the South. just as he did in
the Third Loan when the percentage
Of subscriptions from the rural dis
tricts was very high, the farmer sub
scribing to by far the greater share Of
the issue
The card system to be used in this
campaign will enable the committees
and the government to keep careful
check on the subscriptions made by
every man In the country, and by ev-
cry occupation. The government is
anxious that every citizen own at
least few Liberty bonds. and those
who are shown on the record not to
have invested at all will be especially
solicited.
Reports from the county chairmen

for the Fourth loan. despite the high
er quotas assigned every territory.
Our people have given their sons
and brothers to this war;" they say.
DO you think they are not going to
back up the boys with their dollars?"
'Our Southern farmers. too have
been taught the value of bonds as an
Investment, too. The other Campaigns
were campaigns of education, but this

who has Q bead or two tucked away

anxious to put q few OF the Fourth

The campaign for the Fourth loan
viii continue only three weeks, from
September 10 to October 10, inclusive.
Within that time each county and
state must raise its quota. 1t will take
hard work on the part of the commit
toes, and this will be made much cas-
Ter by every mans making up his
mind what he can invest in bonds and
meeting the committee half way.

There are some who have feared
and with good reason, that in the
shutting OF the cards for securing
greater liberties for the oppressed
peoples of Europe, we might over
look safeguarding closely enough
those priceless and blood bought
liberties in our own country, and
find some of them slipping away
from us after the war, but all of
that will come out in its proper
course. The principal business of
course with our nation In the great
war Is to lend our strength and
wishes for its success and as early
conclusion as can come with the pur-
pose put through of destroying
German militarism SO that for the
same reasons almost the war will not
soon have to be fought over again.
Yes, we have ever agreed that a
complete job should be made OF it
while SO much expense and trouble
and trouble and sacrifice is being
gone to; MISREPRESENTATION to the
contrary Notwithstanding Nearly
IT not all of US are involved with our
blood in this war and for that and
the higher reasons of love Of native
land and righteous ruling in earth
we should want to see the Interna-
tional criminals of Germany brought
to law for the common good Of real
civilization and spent and be spent
