 By means of the pigeons. generally has come the first news of the cap- ture of towns and important positions.

George Griffin. night office boy in the Gazette's editorial room. wears the red to which he is entitled as volunteer subscriber to the fourth Liberty loan. It's a grand decoration for anyone, but somehow the one this boy wears seems bigger and redder and more ornamental than those worn by the men in the editorial room.
 If you thought your quota too large and did not volunteer think of George Griffin. He works each night until the early rush is past in the Gazette's editorial room then hur- ries home to bed, for he goes to school in the daytime, Out of his ear ninss he makes weekly payment in a Christmas savings club and he gives a certain amount to the family purse. Now he will add to these expenses each week payment on Liberty bond
 He is undertaking too much, you say? We'll, you don't know George Griffin. He's an old hand at this game. He knows he can do it, for he has done it before. Already he has paid for bond of previous Iiberty loan.
 If there isn't q lesson for you in George Griffin you're 100 per cent and don't need a lesson or you are zero and can't understand.
 The Gazette has much to be proud of and part of that much is the edi- torial room office boy. Our hat is off to you, George.-Arkansas Gag cite.
 The Gazette has nothing on the Graphic, as this paper has a carrier, Cooper Land, who has Liberty Bonds of the First and Second issues paid for practically paid for in the Third and Is a subscriber to the Fourth Liberty Loan. In addition Cooper is holder of War Savings Stamps and also works i'll the interest of Liberty Loan and the thrift stamps sales.
 Cooper goes to school days, delivers the Graphic mornings and assists in more ways than one in making this world better place to live in. Both for himself and others. Our hat is also off to Cooper and also to George. They are now the future solid citi- zens of the United States.

THE DAP OF WOMEN.

Never has there been such all op- portunity for the women. Since the men have gone to war, civil affairs gre being more and more turned over to the women.
 The Government employment ser vice has announced that no man who is able to fight, within the draft age, or perform necessary war work, shall he permitted to retain employ ment that can be filled by women.
 We are nation at war. and war must be made our sole business y say the Washington authorities, and men are the ones that must do the fighting.
 Yet the part that women play in this war is none the less essential, even though she may not carry rifle Or dig trench, or tace the deadly shrapnel of the enemy.
 It was Gen. Joffre who asserted that If the girls of France should stop their war work for but twenty minutes. the French army would col lapse."
 With more than a million and a half of women and girls employed in war work ill America, and the number rapidly increasing, and with the man power essential to industry decreas- ing by the same ratio. Gen. Joffre's remark might soon apply to America.
 Not only wearing the insignia of mercy ill the Red Cross service, at the front and ill the hospitals; but in the munitions factories, in com- mercial life here strong men have grown to be weddings doing the work of women, in public service of various kinds, in offices and shops, and in the fields, the women of America are rallying to the call of service just as truly and as patriotically as their brothers who answer the call of the colors. ea&&I
 The South is catching step with this condition-the sentimental South where an inmate chivalry has always protected its women from the ardu- ous tasks and the drudgery of mems employments.
 For the women of the South are proving that they are something more than the clinging vines tradition has made them-they are ready to meet requirements and make the sacrifices when their service is needd.
 In Pine Bluff and throughout Ark ansas women are filling places men have monopolized heretofore, and fill ing them we'll.
 And they must fill more of them.
 They are beginning with the girls in the elevators, in the messenger service. in eating houses, and in s office positions, and already they have begun the invasion of industrial plants.
 The war is revolutionizing social conditions In Arkansas no less than in the baleaxuered countries of Turope ses only difference being in degree.
