Thrift Day in Somerville and
Fayette County.

Last Friday was magnificently OBJ.
served in Fayette county with master.
full exercise in SomerviIle and exercises
at other points in the Icountv. There
were assembled in tha city crowd
variouslV estimated up to 1000 or 2,
800 people from all parts of the county.
At three O'Clock Hon. C. A Stainback
OF the local bar and Judge w. w. Fara-
baugh of Memphis addressed as many as
could gather in the large circuit court
room, which was small part of the
people in town. Both made lstrong ad-
dresses, two of the best and most con-
vincing made to our people lsince war
began and had telling effect on the
minds of their hearers.
Committees of ladies and ;:girls were
active thruout the day in the sale of
thrift stamps and sold IA splendid
amount CT these. And members of the
Red Cross sold many Liberty Bonds
during the day.
In the afternoon a number of airplanes
from the Ellington field .circled about
over town and did many amusing and
daring stunts never seen .before by
most of the people present.
The two banks here were closed thru.
out the day and oil lloffices and business
houses closed from noon for the re-
mainder of the day.
The day was one for:stirring
patriot rever a spark existed.
Particularly fitting was this exercise
and gathering on the days that nearly
forty draft army boys and alternates
reported here to the local draft board
for service and were received and
checked up by Messers. Crawl fold and
Albright, the chairman of the board be-
ing out of the city, and Somer vile and
Fayette county have cause to feel
proud that her people have the interest
and patriotism that was shown.

Securing Deferred Call for
Farm Workers.

1t has been announced that a new
draft of about $4,000 men per month
will be called during the remainder of
this year, and the Provost Marshal Gen
eisl has ordered that "Men actively,
assiduously and completely engaged in
the planting or cultivation of a crop,
but who are listed in Glass / of the
draft and come within the new quota,
should be deferred until the end of the
new quota"
To get the benefit of this new call it
is Necessary that the men under il
make affidavit supporting their claims.
Farm boys should Immediately execute,
and file with their local boards, affida-
Wits showing that they are completely
engaged in the plahting and cultivation
of crop. Such affidavits should be
signed by two are three neighbors who
have personal knowledge of this work
in which the man is engaged.
(a) Young farmers should .attend to
this at once. Those who fail to file af-
fidavits showing proof that they are
wholly engaged in farm work will not
be exempted or deferred if their turn
should come in filling this quota.
(b) And farmers whose sons and
hired hands are in this Class | should
have no hesitation in themselves
making out and filing such affidavits,
and they should lose no time in doing so.

BANK DEPOSITS NOT
DEPLETED BY LOANS
Despite the Fact That Billions Have
Been Invested In Liberty Bonds,
an Increase Is Shown.

There is in some sections fear on
the part Of the banks that Liberty
Loan subscriptions will tend toward q
material decrease in bank deposits.
To offset this fear the following
summary Of the statement of the
Comptroller of Currency, dated April
10. 1918, should correct this impress
sion.
This statement, naturally. applies
only to national banks, but Is doubt
less also true Of state banks and trust
companies.
On March IL, 1917, the total depos.
Its of national banks were s12,967,.
100000. or nearly 13 billions.
In spite Of the sale OF Liberty Bonds
since that time OF $3.50, 1000, 900, or
about six billions, the deposits In ma
tional banks on March I, 1918, show
an increase Of s1.4So, ,6ss, 900. or near
ly one and one-half billion. as COM
pared with March s. 1917.
The total amount Of Liberty Bonds
owned by national banks on March 4,
1918. was s4sS,7SS,00o. This Is less
than $500.
This amount Of Liberty Bonds
owned by national banks on March 4,
1918, is only about 7h per cent Of
the total Of the first and second LIB
erty Bond issues.
These facts should be given By the
directors Of publicity to all banks In
their localities.
It is the most accurate and forcibls
evidence Of the effect upon bank d.
posits Of the Liberty Bond sales.

SOMEBODY BLUNDERED.
IT WAS THE PRUSS|ANs
Germany Went Wrong In Estimating
the English, French and
Americans.

Lack OF understanding Of other ma
tions, of other peoples, has ever been
the predominant weakness OF the
Prusslan militarists Posing as lead
ers in philosophy and psychology they
have nevertheless failed completely
in their analysis of human nature in
any people outside their own bound
airy lines of dominion.
They misunderstood the French.
They blundered in their estimate OF
the English. They muddled their
dealings with the Russians. And the
world at large now knows how far
they missed reading US Alright. They
thought US nation Of money grub
bers, Of apologists rather than fight
sfs, and even yet they are refusing
to concede their mistake. But they
know better in their own hearts.
Uncle Sans first rude disturbance
OF the .Prussian serenity was his dec
laration OF war. His second shock to
Prussian confidence was the rapid fire
manner in which he began the up
building Of his armed forces. Then
came the tremendous over-subscrip-
ton of the first Liberty Loan. an al
together unexpected performance.
And when this was repeated in the
second Liberty Loan drive It was real
~ appalling.
Now the Prussian interest is CEN
tered upon what the American people
are going to do for the Third Liberty
Loan in the face Of recent events at
the front. While the American troops
along the firing line are emphasizing
our spirit and determination with u
csntimeter guns, howitEers, machine
guns, hand grsnades. rifles and auto
matics, 1t is up to us ct home TO do
our shslling with dollars.
Ours Is By far the easier task. u
has no saver Of danger. On the con-
trary 1t is prsoaution against the pos-
sinis menace Of the future. II 10 SOW
ing seeds Of security whore tAey viii
grow to the benefit Of both ourselves
and our country.
n d one Of the greatest ths noolest
tie most patriotic opportunities ever
offered the American people.

MANY WORKERS IN E,
THIRD LOAN DRIVE
Selling Forces Aggregate $1,000 and
Other Branches Constitute
Verltable Army.

A veritable army, comparable In
thoroughness Of organization and ef
fectiveness Of operation with thoss
now in the battle zones Of France, is
working at top speed in the Eighth
Federal Reserve District for the suo
cess of the Third Liberty Loan.
Reduced to the basis OF army divk
sions--12.000 to a division-there are
practically eight divisions in the field.
as many Liberty Loan workers in the
states composing this reserve district
as there were American soldiers IN
France Just before the recent big Ger
man drives.
This army OF Liberty Loan workers
is being directed by central organf
zation comparable to an army's gem
eral staff. On two floors OF the RAN
way Exchange Building, st. Louis, the
largest office building in the world
occupying enough space to accommos
date all the business houses Of an
ordinary town, are the high command
ers Of this army. From this nerve
center of direction go out the direo
tions, the orders, the advice to $50
counties Of the district. Each smaller
unit in each state and county has its
individual heads and leaders.
While these messages go and coms
by telephone and telegraph, the cen4
trail headquarters is launching a verk
table avalanche Of printed matter
over its territory. These tons of lit4
erature, destined to reach the 1885,.
600 population in the district, havs
been mailed at the rate Of 10000
sheets a day. Nineteen hundred and
thirty-nine newspapers are reached!
One thousand ministers OF as many
churches are supplied with Christian
and religious argument for the suo'
cess Of the loan.
Working directly under central
headquarters are 5,456 sales directors,
16 to county Working under each
director is a staff Of between 10 and
Is statesmen. Even estimating the
sales force under each director at 10
men, this would make q total of $3.50
statesmen. It is believed the total Id
nearer $4,000.
There are 5000 publicity directors
in Che district, with staffs Of assist
ants. There are 1000 speakers and
several thousand workers in miscel!
laneous fields.
A perfect system Of checking up ON
all persons able to buy bonds has
been evolved. Y. L. Price, director Of
sales forces, can put his finger immsl
diately upon weak spots Each sales
man is supplied with prospect" cards!
These show mans financial ability
as regards buying Liberty Bonds. II
the prospect" refuses to buy a card
containing his refusal is sent by the
salesman to the sales director Of his
district. The sales director, in turn.
forwards the card to Sales Directors
Price.
Thus failure to subscribe Is def!
nitely fixed. II does not end here.
however. The man whose reason for
declining to buy is not considered
good Is entered upon one of the yell
low Stacker" cards which are for
warded to national headquarters in
Washington, d. c. There he is clas!
sifled with the "slackers" from svery
reserve district in the Union.
