led by the Majestic orchestra.
Rev. Charles w. Crisler, pastor

the lives of many thousands OF
our soldier boys, an impressive
hush fell over the vast audience.
This was the nearest reference
made by the busiest man in
the world'' to political affairs in
Mississippi, if it could be called
a reference at all, but the shot
went directly home. and the tu-
multuous cheering showed con-
clusively that Secretary McAdoo
had spoken the sentiments of his
hearers,
The big grand stand at the
State Fair grounds held hardly
half the multitude that came
from all points of the compass to
hear the Sunday afternoon ad-
dress of the Presidents chief
cabinet officer. The crowd that
stood patiently on the race track
just to the north of the grand
stand for more than an hour was
almost as large as that nnder
the roof. Fully 500 turned away
when they found that they could
not obtain seats. It was by far
the largest crowd that has ever
assembled on the State Fair
grounds on any occasion. Many
Of the visitors came from points

Fully 1000 enthusiastic Miss
issippians cheered Secretary of
the Treasury w. G. McAdoo to
the echo at the State Fair
Grounds at Jackson Sunday af-
ternoon when he vigorously de-
elared that cheap demagogues
and captious critics of the gov
ernment must take back seats;
that the American people will
not tolerate their efforts to OBJ
struct the war work of this gov
ernment.
The applause became an up
roar q few moments later when
Secretary McAdoo paid his re-
spects to the members of con-
gress who. by continuous fill
clustering, had prevented the
passage of the ship purchase bill
two years ago, thus retarding
Americas work of preparedness
for war.
Mr.. McAdoo called no names,
but the inference was plain. He
was speaking in the home city
of one of the southern senators
who participated in the filibus-
tering and prevented the pass
age of the ship purchase bill,
and when he declared that the
defeat of that measure may cost

coming trains during the fore
noon were filled to overfowing.
The congestion of traffic on Cap
itol street at the noon hour was
so bad that both auto drivers
and pedestrians literally had to
fight their way through.
If the big crowd enjoyed Mr..
McAdoo, it is quite certain that
Mr.. McAdoo enjoyed the crowd
a great deal more. He was in
fine spirits. despite the fact that
lit was a Sabbath afternoon
meeting, and the first Of its

Sabbath day.
1T is glorious to see such a
splendid war spirit. ]" said Mr..
McAdoo just before boarding
his train to fill speaking engage
ments in Texas cities during the
current week. Il am delighted to
see that the people of Mississippi
are becoming awakened to a
realization of what this war
means, and the sacrifices we
must make in order to vanquish
the Kaiser and his horde of
Huns.

the quickness of our victory de-
pends upon how quickly our
people are awakened to a reali-
zation of the fact that their
lives and liberty are in peril, and

time he was interrupted with

making, Mr.. McAdoo had no
difficulty in making himself
heard to. the edges Of the big
crowd. He spoke little less
than an hour, and from the first
he hit hard and straight from
the shoulder. There was no opti-
mism in his analysis of conditions
of the Western front, while be-
lieving the Allied line will hold
he frankly admitted the situation
is critical, and no man can fore
tell when the end will come in
the great struggle of the en-
lightened nations of the earth
for a world democracy.
There were several high lights
in his address. One of the most
notable utterances was a declar-
alton that the American people
must get accustomed to wearing
half-soles on both their shoes
and their pants; that during this
war period a patch is a badge of
honor and the man who buys a
new pair of shoes or a new pair
| of pants when he doesn't need
them is not a good patriotic, for
he is keeping men at work max
| ing such things who ought to be
employed making shoes and
clothing for the soldiers.
And to those who were sitting
close to the speaker it was ap-
parent that he was proving his
faith by his works for his feet
were encased in a pair of shoes
that had plainly been half-soled.
Mr.. McAdoo also paid his re-
spects to the man. who is a 25-
cent patriot when he could be
SIS, 600 patriot" meaning there
by the person who purchases a
thrift stamp when he can well
afford to invest $1,000 in Liberty
bonds. He also took another
hard rap at another kind of So
called patriots who buy Liberty
bonds in order to make a show,
and then turn around and sell
them just as they receive their
allotment, thus forcing the Sc
curities below par on the Wall
Street market.
The local reception committee
quickly discovered that Mr.. Nc
Adoo is a very informal and
rather unconventional sort of
person. plain as an old shoe"
is a phrase that fttingly de-
scribes him. He prefers walking
to riding, and, except when con.
veyed from Union Station to the
State Fair grounds, did not set
foot in an automobile during his
stay of nearly eight hours in the
city. He insisted on walking to
church, attending the II o'clock
service at st. Andrews, and
within an hour or so after his ar
rival was sufficiently we'll ac-
quainted with several members
of the reception committee to
hail them by their first names.
The program was arranged in
conformity with Mr.. McAdoo's
personal tastes and desires. The
train bringing him from New
Orleans arrived at 8:15 O'Clock,
and an hour later he was escort
ed to the Edwards for breakfast
as the guest of the local recep-
ton committee, headed by Chief
Justice Sydney NJ. Smith. Incl
dentally. just prior to leaving
the car he was busy for fifteen
minutes with his four secreta-
ries answering a sheaf of tele-
grams that had been delivered
upon arrival. Having disposed
of this business, which probably
involved a few paltry hundreds
of million dollars, he was ready
to regale the inner man. and at
the breakfast he demolished a

This is the question that has been
causing Sergeant r. Il. Mergenthal,
of the L. S. Marine Corps recruiting
station, to spend sleepless nights
lately.
George Hadley, OF Kansas City,
applied to Mergenthal for enlist
ment. When Hadley informed him
that ne was married and had two
children, Mergenthal told him that he
would draw $3.50 for family al
lotment, namely, SIS for his wife,
SO for his first child. and $3.50 for
his second child But Haiiey insis-
ted on SIS.
How do you figure that" queried
Mergenthal.
well, my youngsters are twins, so
how are you going to figure the first
child? They both come under the
SO head" answered Hadley.
Il give up" declared Mergenthal,
after puzzling over it . for a few
hours. The delicate question has
been put up to the authorities at
Washington.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
catarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed. Deafr ess is the re-
suit. Unless the Inflammation can
be reduced and this tube restored to
it's normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh which
is an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine acts thru the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred-Dollar
