CASH THOSE SAVINGS
STAMP PLEDGES NOW

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 6.-Georgia has
fallen far behind on her War Savings
Stamp quota largely because the peo-
pie who signed pledges last summer
to buy certain amounts of War Saw
ings stamps have failed to keep their
pledges.
The state organization has waited
until the greater part of the cotton
crop has been marketed and money
is more plentiful, before pushing its
campaign for the redemption of the
pledges, but it believes that every
pledge should be redeemed in Nov
ember
Uncle Sam accepted our written
promise to invest our money in
stamps, lending it to the country"
said one OF the national officials from
Washington who attended a confer
ence i'll Atlanta this week "a large
part of that money has been spent
on our boys overseas. 1t is up to the
people to max good by redeeming
their pledges, just as any business
man takes up his note when it is due
or pays off his other obligations"
Coupons on the third Liberty Loan
bonds become due on November Is,
and thousands of holders of these
bonds expect to let the coupons re-
main untouched instead of cashing
them now. 1t is suggested that an
excellent way to make the bonds
earn more money, and at the same
time help the government, is to clip
the coupons convert them into saw
ings stamps, and pin the stamps to
the bonds for safekeeping. The cou-
pons earn no interest, and the stamps

REPRESENTATIVE OF MUM.
FORD HOME SOLICITING
FUNDS IN CITY

MIR. E. T. Pritchett, special repres-
entative for the Georgia Industrial
home, old Mumford home, is here
tor the purpose of putting on cam
paign to solicit help for homeless, de-
pendent children who are sheltered
and educated there for useful lives.
Anything that the children can eat or
wear, new or old, will be appreciated
as much as cash contributions. Mr..
Pritchett is travelling in a truck for
the purpose of handling farm pro-
duce which many farmers are con-
trlbuting. Anyone wishing to con-
tribute anything may notify the Lead
er-Enterprise and Mr.. Pirtchett will
call for it.
The home, founded near Macon,
in 1899 by w. E Mumford to care
for those children that denomination
al homes would not received, is sup
ported almost entirely by voluntary
contributions and this year is@havine
great difficulty in securing efficient
support because of the drains of va
rious war activities on those who
have formerly contributed. There
are 165 destitute children now being
cared for. including twenty babies
whose fathers are in the trenches
overseas and whose mothers have
died in the present epidemic of in
fuenza. All these children must be
cared for and educated and the home
needs money to do it with.

COUNCIL REFUSES
TO ACT ON FLU
SITUATION

The Flu situation was discussed ~.
the council at its last meeting Mon
day night and almost unanimous
recommendation of the physicians Of
the city to close the schools, chnr-
ches. theaters and pool rooms read,
but the council decided not to take
formal action and Mayor Jays proc
lamation of Friday opening them re-
mains in fQrce. Mayor Jay removed
the restrictions under the impression
that the physicians favored such az
ton.
The opinion of the councilmen was
that the school board had ample au-
thorlty to close schools if necessity
arose and that if conditions grew bad
enough special meeting of the coun-
Gil could be called to close churches,
pool rooms and theatcrs again. nhe
lid had been on three weeks when il
was removed Monday.
The epidemic is not yet over by
any means although the daily mum.
Der of new cases has been decreasing.
What effect allowing crowds to as
semble again will have on the cpl
demlc remains to be seen.

WAR SAVINGS PLEDGES
ARE BINDING OBLIGATION

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 6-Every per-
son who signed pledge to purchase
certain stipulated amount of War
Saving Stamps during 1918, and who
has not yet redeemed that pledge, is
under binding moral obligation to
the, government to buy the stamps
without delay This is the idea that
will be stressed from now until the
end of the year in Georgia and all
other southern states, where an in
tensive campaign, is now being
launched by the Treasury Depart
ment to bring this section up to its
quota. War Saving Stamps are the
greatest institution that has come out
of the war, declares Joseph A. Nc
Cord, governor of the Federal Re-
serve Bank of Atlanta, who is head

vided she is the first, or enc among
the first ten states in the nation to

Work Drive which occurs on Nov
ernber 18th to 1Sth-from next Mon
day through the following Monday.
She may go there in the form of an
army welfare hut for her ewn brave

Georgia's quota for this important
war work fund is ST ,585, 785, and one
of the most thorough organizations
ever yet perfected for a public pa
triotic campaign is now blazing the
way through every part of the state,
and judging by reports coming from
all sections, Georgia, by every citi-
zen doing his full share, is going to
raise her quota very quickly. The im-
portant thing is for Georgia to ex-
coed her quota first among all states,
in order that she may win one of the
highest honors OF the war
In telegram received Friday from
New York at the Georgia Publicity
Department headquarters, it was an
| nounced that the suggestion recently
made to John R. Mott by Ely R. Cal
laway, Georgia Campaign Director,
in regard to the nature of the reward
to be given to the ten states first
subscribing thei quotas in the United

by the national committee. The telc-
gram is as follows

that one of huts at least may even

Georgia is ready to respond. She
could wish for no happier tribute

which her own heroic sons might
come and receive generous proof of
the love and loyalty of the folks

DID WORK OF HIGH ORDER
Designs Wrought by Ancient Peruvian
Dyers Have Been Given Much
Praise by Experts.

The ancients of Peru, by curious
coincidence-for there could not pos
sibly have been any intercourse with
their contemporaries in India and
Egypt-seem to have used much the
same kind of processes in printing
their designs upon the fabrics they
manufactured. Both Herodctus and
Piiny, among early historians, have
told US about the cloths of vegetable
fiber made by the ancients; but in all
likelihood the fabrics of the Peruvians
were of even more remote date. In
some respects the methods of today
bear strong resemblance to the older
practice The chief difference con-
sistS In the patterns now being en-
graved upon copper rollers and several
colors being printed at. one time. Just
as today the coloring matter of dyes
is not affixed by merely printing it on
the material, but Is secured by means
of a substance known as merdant, so
did the Peruvians make use of a prop
erty which caused the dye TO adhere
and to withstand a test of thousands
of years wear and tear. Experts have
declared that in the direction of tech
meal and artistic value the designs In
question have no equal.
