New Chairman of Corporation
Commission.

Wilmington Star.
The Star yesterday presented
picture Of Allan j. Maxwell now act
ing chairman of the North Carolina
Corporation Commission and who is
the Democratic State nominee for
that responsible Office. Mr.. Maxwell
is Wilmingtonian and his elevation
to position Of greater usefulness
and more influence in the State gives
immense satisfaction down here
where we all kknow the man.
However, Mr.. Maxwell is known all
over the State, and the appreciation
Of his capabilities and the honor that
he has won gives complete satisfact-
ion from the sea to the mountain. For
years Mr.. Maxwell has been very
large part of the State Corporation
Commission as it's eminently able and
| we'll qualified secretary. Previously
he became known to many public men
of the State as secretary Of the State
senate. AS secretary Of the Corpora
tion Commission he became very
widely known for the efficiency as the
right-hand man Of Chairman E. L.
Travis of the commission, and especl-
ally for the comprehensive and vigior-
Gus aid he gave to the Statewide fight
for just freight rates for North Caro-
lima. In that fight he added his repu-
tation and greatly impressed the
leading men of the State with his fine
ability and splendid service.
There is no wonder, therefore that
when Chairman Travis resigned re-
appointed Mr.. Maxwell to the vacan-
cy. Following that signal recognition

Of North Carolina, the State Demo.

little girls that we left behind US
and the dear old folks at home.
eff we boys reach the front lire

MONEY NOT BEST
PART OF WAR SAVINGS

England Saves s650,000, 900 a Year
Nation Has Been Converted From
Wasteful Spenders to Wise Savers.
Winston-Salem, July 18.-The big
gest and the best thing of the War
Savings Campaign is not the amount
cf money it raises, but the habit of
saving 1t creates among the people
Far greater than the money value of
the War Savings CAMPAIGN of this
ccuntry-ss important as that feature
is IN winning the war-far more val
liable will be that disposition created
IN the lives of its 1O0,000,OOG people
to save part of their earnings reg
ularly and to invest them in safe .s-
ourities.
That the saving habit can be made
a vital factor in the life of a people
has already been England's expert
ence. AS result Of a two-year War
Sayings campaign, she IS now saving
$3.50 100000 year. Her savings
bank deposits show an increase #
over 100 per cent, and what is better
still, her people have been converted
from cne of reckless spenders to one
Of intelligent savers. At one time, it
is said, the overflowing garbage pa /
was a source Of pride and a mark of
gentility in England. To throw awav
the left-overs from the table was evi-
dence Of the rank and importance of
the house. 1t was also the belief of
the average person that there wes
something mean about saving and
that it was done only by rather tilnor-
GUS and small minded people who tad
not the courage to face fortune with
a light heart. believing that some
thing would always turn up. The free
handed fearless man who spent his
money as it came was the one who
most easily gained the approval o.
his fellows.
But the reverse of this is true in
England today. A familiar cypress
| ion is, every shilling wasted stabs
a soldier in the back" The lesson
has been brought home to surpri,
ingly large part of the populution that
money spent in the time Of war on
things not needed is money given to
the enemy because it sets people to dc
Unnecessary work who could have o. l.
ecwise been working to supply the
| needs of the fighters or to increase the
necessities at home Fines were i'm.
| posed for the wastage of food, coal
gas or electricity. Unnecessary meals
were forbidden, as was extravaganza
in dressing and other non- essentials
If Americans would learn well from
England, they would fix firm in than
lives and characters the habit of in.
tellectual saving.

IN A BAD PLIGHT.
This Fellow Probably Got Exemption
From Military Duty.

Some time ago an exemption board
received the following letter in re-
gard to a registrant for military duty,
What the board did about it does not
appear, but as the subject "got killed"
and was otherwise crippled, both men
tally and physically, he was evidently
in bad fix. Here is the letter with
names deleted:
"My son has heard truble and got
killed at a sawmill, and he isn't brlte
nor never will be. He was insane for
6 weeks, didn't no anything, and ne
got matter head, has pains nearly
all the time in head. He isn't able
to do much of nuthing, he does what
little he can I and his father is dis
abled to do anything. He is my only
dependence, for support, what little
he can do. He hase a broken shoulder
and his hip knocked out of place, and
killdid with board. his occupation at
home is farm he can't doc much nc
whair. I myself is IA years old his
mother is 81 and both deis afil to doc
anything. Two points forgot he i
: rupord and has a shortness Of brett

THE MEN WHO SERVE.

Money-making is no longer the
prime concern Of American business.
it is a question Of service now, and
we are ali serving under the same ban
ner of freedom and democracy.
The aristocracy Of the future will
not be the aristocracy Of birth or
wealth, but of men who serve, who
do things for their country and their
fellow men. The great prize to be
won by men of ambition today is not
money but recognition as members of
the aristocracy of service; the aris
tocracy that is open to every man, in
stead of the old dead-and-g gone aris-
tocracy that was open to those Of par
ticular birth or great wealth.-Charles
M. SchWab.

GUARD AGAINST
FIRE LOSSES
Red0ubled Occasion for Precaution
Against Fire Losses Now.

Raleigh, July 21.-As fire marshal
for North Carolina, State Insurance
commissioner James R. Young is seek
ing to focus the attention of property
owners all through the State on the
condition that there is redoubled &C.
caslon for precaution against fire
losses IN the constantly INCREASING
value of properties liable to fire dam
age or destruction in these war times
when cost of replacement is steadily
soaring. Ordinarily, of late years. the
commissioner says, about forty per
cent Of the property liable to fire darn
age has any insurance at all and the
average of protection through insur-
ance where the policies are issued on
specific properties only runs normally
from fifty to seventy five per cent of
the actual value of the property in
volved. Now that actual replacement
values have gone up SO tremendously
the situation becomes very much more
serious and aside from additional in
surance protection that may be invok-
ed there is the greatest necessity for
every possible precaution against
fires.
It is especially being urged that
every precaution be exercised by eve
rybody connected with any manufac-
turing plant, business house, Office
building and town and country homes
against any possible outbreak of fire
and that "Fire Prevention" and "Safe-
ty First" be developed as something
Of a "second nature" for every indi-
vidual thereby certainly reducing very
greatly actual fire losses and injuries
to persons and property through ac-
cidents-than which there are no
greater opportunities for actual war
time conservations so necessary in the
winning of the war.

July II, 1918.
The verses enclosed follow:
SOLDIERS COME BACK CLEAN.
This is plea to soldier
To read as he sails from home
To the fields afar, where the battles are,
Ger the ocean foam.
Whatever the danger awaiting
In the land I have not seen,
If do n6t fall-if l come back at all
Then I will come back clean.
I may lie in the mud of the trenches,
I may reek with blood and mire,
But I viii control by the God of my soul
That might of mans desire.
I will fight my foe in the open
But my sword shall be sharp and keen
For the foe within, who would lure me to sin
And I will come back clean.
| I may not leave for my children
| Brave medals that l have worn.
| The blood in my veins shall leave no stains
On bride or babe unborn.
, The scars that my body may carry,
| Shall not be from deeds obscence:
For my vii shall say to beast obey
| And 1 will come back clean.
| Oh, not on the fields of slaughter,
| And not in the prison cell,
| Or in hunger and cold is the story told
| But by war of its darkest hell.
| The DID, old sin of the senses
/ Can tell what that word may mean
To soldiers wives and to innocent lives
And will come back clean.

Red Springs enjoys the spirit Of
giving, and always gives literally: 1t
was only few months ago that Flora
Macdonald college called on the town
for $4,000 and received Sl2,oOO; the
two Liberty Bond loans were met
with more than the amount asked Ter
by the government; our local Red
Cross chapter is the equal OF any IN
Robson for the amount OF money
raised and work given to that cause,
an dthe same is being added to daily
by those in charge; thrift stamps are
in every store and have a ready, sale
The evangelistic meeting just closed
did our people so much good that
they responded with liberal and
generous hand in a sum equal to the
amount raised in towns OF larger
wealth and population. In the War
Savings stamp sale Red Springs Wen'
"over the top" In statement glver

"The above report shows that Ret

was was allotted s72,3SO, and this terri
tory has reported subscriptions IN tf
sum of $74,34O, thereby putting thu
territory "over the top" to the eH
tent Of $1,960."
True, but as we give so do we re
ceive. The blessings we enjoy car
not be counted. There are no mlllior

calls come a general response is give

Avoid It's Dangerous Stage.

There is more serious stage of
Catarrh than the annoyance caused
by the stopped-up air passages, and
the hawking and splitting and. other
distasteful features.
The real danger comes from the
tendency Of the disease to continue
its course downward until the lungs
become affected, and then dreaded
consumption is On your path. Your
own experience has taught you that
the disease cannot be cured by
