roll for another year.
Let no one suppose that because
peace has been declared the work
of the Red Cross is finished. Mill
ions Of our boys are still under
arms. Our protecting arms must
be about them, and their loved
ones at home, until they come
back to US. They need every COM
fort and care that money can pro-
vide. Not only our boys appeal
to US, but the war torn countries
that cannot help themselves hold
out their arms to us, and let us
cheerfully help to repair their
broken spirits and bodies.
Please let every man and wo-
man in Rankin county join the
Red Cross by December 25th-
then our county will be right in
line with all the other counties
in. the state that have pledged a
hundred per cent membership.
Your membership will prove that
you do not forget your debt to
those who have saved the world
from terroism. We have sent out
to the chairmen Of branches and
auxiliaries buttons, service flags,
Christmas seal folders, posters,
windshield pastors, window cut
outs, Geo. Ade booklets, workers
badges, enrolment blanks and re-
port envelopes to be used in the
campaign for Christmas Roll Call.
Chairmen will distribute these at
once, appoint membership com
mittees, and solicit membership
from every man and woman in
your jurisdiction. Let everybody
enroll in the Red Cross army Of
mercy and BY this membership
present ! Christmas present to
humanity.

While the excitement was not
quite as big as the night before,
there were many parades and
plenty of noise. Again the pass
es were extended and again we
spent an almost sleepless night,
but the real celebration for the
Americans will begin tonight.
This day has been dedicated as
American day and declared q hol-
iday. About 5 p. m. we are going
to have a gigantic parade in
which practically every Ameri-
can in the vicinity will partici-
pate, after which we will, be
turned loose, the M. P.'s pulled
off the streets and the town O.
pened wide to us. Picture for
yourself some thousands OF A
merican soldiers turned loose in
a good town and celebrating such
a victory as we won, and you will
have an idea Of what is going to
prevail tonight. Oh, what q
head! which il 4 fact, it is heavy

EARL JONES HAS CLOSE CALL
French Girls Hug and Kiss Him
Thinks He Will Recover.

Earl Jones, popular Rankin
county boy who has been seeing
active service in France, writes
a Brandon friend as follows:
"Hurrah!!! At last the war is
won and before many days quite
a number of us will be back in
Gods country again. Oh! what
a grand and glorious feeling it
will be when we sight the Statute
of Liberty.
We received the news early
Monday morning and shortly af-
ter it was flashed throughout the
country. Then the widest scenes
of excitement prevailed in the vi
cinity and throughout the country.
The French Immediately began to
celebrate by sending up practical
ly every type of plane, who swoop-
ed around the town doing all
sorts of fancy stunts while the
cannon in the immediate vicinity
doomed forth the great news with
in the radius of miles around.
Of course we had our daily rou-
tine to carry out in camp, but we
all saw visions of a wonderful
time that night in town, when
BOOM! an order came through
forbidding all Americans to enter
the town until the following morn
ing, and H H H., you can
imagine our disappointment and
we sure were gloomy bunch un-
til several hours later when an
other order came through rescind-
ing the first order, and granting
us passes from 5 p. m. until 9:3O
p. m.
About 4:45 p. m. my buddie and
myself left camp, and we arrived
IN town close to p. m. Just as
we alighted from the automobile
we were surrounded by a crowd
of joyful French people, and we
were hugged and kissed by the
women and girls, ou-la-la, you can
imagine how badly l felt NIT.
AS we were among the first Amer
ican soldiers Ia arrive in town,
we had pretty hard time trying to
force our way through the
crowded streets, as every one
grab us by the hand as we passed
and shout "VIVE L'AMERIQUE."

share of it.
Occasionally one would see
woman dressed in black stand
ing to one side with tears in her
eyes, probably dreaming Of some
lost relative, son or husband,
but this was very seldom, as the
people realized that after five
years of effort, they were finally
repaid with victory, and that
their sacrifices had not been in
vain. AS the evening progressed
the cafes began to overflow with
people, and it was practically i'm
possible to enter one. The corks
popped and champagne flowed as
freely as water. My buddie and
| managed to keep a clear head
so as to enjoy the scenes and al
so be able to find our way back
to camp that night or rather next
morning.
The M. T. C. officers had their
piano transported to town by truck
including several other musical
instruments, and located them
selves in one of the most promi-
nent circles in town. Then the
big noise began. HOOP
HOOP" ''WEE!" we sang ev-
erything we knew o rever heard
until we weere all horse-I mean
HOARSE, and then drenched our
throats in French wines. About
10 p. m. very few had thought of
departing for camp and as we
happened to enter one Of the
prominent cafes in town, we met
one of the boys who had just been
told by the Major Morgan, who is
camp commander, to inform the
American soldiers that passes
the night. OH! BOY!! OH!|
JOY!! what grand and glorious
feeling. Every one became hap
pier than ever, and there was no
distinction between officers and
enlisted men, as they all mixed
and showed their democratic
spirit.
One of the officers Of M. T. c.
Headquarters acted as song
leader, and he also gave a pretty
good imitation of La Belle Fati-
ma, on one of the tables. Around
the wee small hours of the morn
ing the crowd began to thin out.
and we decided it was about time
to return to camp and grab a few
hours sleep. 'sNo Reveille" the

SECRET ORDERS NOT
LIABLE FOR INCOME

ATLANTA, Ca, April 2-William
England, grand master of the grand
lodge of Georgia Masons, recently re-
quested William T. Harris, chairman
of the Federal Trade Commission, to
secure a ruling as to whether fra
ternal orders, including Masons and
others, would have to pay income tax
on their dues and other revenue.
Chairman Harris took the matter up
in person with ]. c. Roper, United
States commissioner of internal reve'
nue in Washington, and obtained from
him a ruling to the effect that these
fTaternal orders are not subject to the
iucome tax.
This ruling will be matter of much
interest to every fraternal or der in
the state. Chairman Harris is
Mason and member of several Other
fraternal orders, and has always takeT
q keen interest in their welfare.
