DO YOUR SHOPPING EARLY FOR
CHRISTMAS.

The admotition, do your shopping
early" should be observed by every
citizen this year of all years. Belated
shopping means crowded stores and
crowded stores means the proboble
broadcast sowing of more influenza
germs. Furthermore, if the present
situation continues the health Off
Gals may take hand and put the
ban on shopping. This year it may
come to a case of shopping early or
not shopping at all.
We want our young readers TO
know that Santa Claus has been de-
clared to be immune from the influ-
enza. Whether the old gentleman
took a shot of the serum discovered
by the Rockefeller Research 1nsti-
tute., or whether the early shopping
being done by the thoughtful par
ents of the nation is responsible for
this happy state of affairs we do not
know. But the fact that the old fell
low is in ship-shape and hearty, and
will be seen as usual going down the
chimneys. He will be especially &C
tive with THE NEWS advertisers, as
we have advised him that he will
find the best assortments and the
best stocks in these stores that keep
themselves before the public.

Postofice as Mail Matter Of the

GOVERNMENT WTTHDRAWS RE-
QUEST FOR WALNUT
,. co.. STUMPAGE

I have been informed by the
United States Government that the
War Department desires that promi-
nent publicity be given the following
notice: .
1.-THE necessity therefor having
passed, the Ordinance Department
and the Bureau of Aircraft Produc.
tioH hereby withdraw their request,
made several months ago, that wal
nut stumpage be disposed of as a pa
triotic duty and that all walnut logs
be- as far as possible, converted only
into airplane propeller lumber and
gun stock blanks, effective immedi-
ateIy. therefore, and the sale and pur-
chase of stumpage or logs is viewed
by them as purely a commercial
transaction and the conversion of
this wood into veneers and lumber
for commercial purposes is, in their
opinion. entirely proper.
I'm giving this notice, these De-
paTtments desire to convey to the
owners of walnut stumpage and to
the. lumber fraternity, their appre-
ciation of the hearty cooperation
which they have evidenced in this
walnut war campaign and by which
cooperation success in supplying the
need during the National emergency
was attained" ...
Yours very truly.

Residents of Paris and Bourbon
county this week are being con-
fronted at every turn with this Red
Cross Christmas Roll Call member
ship slogan.
Go into restaurant and you'l
find the message on neat little
sticker, attached to the menu card.

you'll probably find the "Join" slo-
gan attached to the cover page or
carried inside in an attractive adver-
tisement donated to the Red Cross.
Many of your letters will reach
you carrying this timely urge"
and perhaps you'll find it pasted on a
telegram. Very likely your Christ
mas parcels will be sent home from
the store similarly labeled.
Thousands of these little stickers
will appear in Paris to supplement
the work of posters, billboards, street
ear cards driving home the Join"
message. s.t g., ......
The Red Cross has used every pos
,sible means to get the "Join" idea
across in the Jake Division States of
Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky because
the goal of the Red Cross Christmas
Roll Call in this and every commu-
nifty is universal membership" and

PRESIDENT GETS GREAT RECEP,
TON IN FRANCE.

President Wilson entered Paris,
Saturday, amid the boom of a hun
dred guns in salute and a greeting
at the railway station and along the
route to his temporary residence by
enthusiastic throngs, estimated to to-
tai nearly 100000 persons, whose
cheers set the air vibrating.
President Poincare, Premier Glenn
enceau and other French officials met
the Presidential party at the railway
station, together with French and
American military officers and pram-
inent civilians.
After the presentations had been
concluded the Presidential party en-
tered open carriages of state and
drove under overcast skies along the
appointed route between solid ranks
of French troops.
The route was lined for miles with
captured guns and other Matte tro-
phies and every available space was
crowded by vast crowds waving and
shouting their welcome.
