KENTUCKY BOOKS AS
CHEAP AS ANY

Answering the charge of Edwin P.
Morrow, leader of the party of de-
nuneiation and despair in Kentucky,
State Superintendent of Public In
struction V. o. Gilbert, said he
would investigate Morrow's charge
that biographies in use in the Indi-
ana and Kentucky schools were sold
cheaper in Indiana than in Ken
lucky. Gilbert said the State was
protected against such a thing as
Morrow denounced, by a bond, and
that if that bond had been broken
the publishers would pay the pen
atty.
Mr.. Gilbert said he would investi-
gate Morrow's charge and that if
they proved true restitution would be

RAMPANT RADlCALISM
WOULD RUIN AND RULE

When Germany's army Of barba-
rans we're almost IN sight OF Paris
and America and the Allies held
their breath under the fearful ten
sion Of whether that great city would
be looted by this horde Of ravagers
and ravishers, the civilization Of this
country was not in greater danger,
probably not 80 great, a. it is today,
when the same Hell-inspired forces
Of evil are at work throughout our
land to ravage, to ravish and TO loot
the country and utterly destroy our
government.
The threat Of revolution Is heard
everywhere. The Radicals and Soci-
alists in high places and in low, twin
children Of Satin himself, are seek
ing TO destroy the government Of this
republic and revel in the wild orgies
Of murder and crime which have
brought Russia down into the mire
Of woe and unspeakable misery. The
influences which are at work there
were largely vomited from Germany
and from Hell, synonymous terms
then, for the present and for all time
TO come, unless Germany shall be
redeemed from the Satanic power
which its people have gladly and joy
ously taken unto their bosom.
tbs is the spirit back of the
strikes which are sweeping over the
land. Innocent men are being made
to do the bidding of the vilest Radi-
Gals, Socialists and Bolshevists that
this or any other country has ever
known. Such labor unions, as are
now controlled By Radicalsm, are
endangering the nation, and il be-
hooyes every patriotic man, and
there are thousands Of them in labor
unions, either TO control these or
CARNATIONS for good, or else to come
out from among them and stand for
the safety Of civilization.
The time has come for the teacher
and the preacher, the business man
and the newspaper, and for every

made to those overcharged. He said:
The contract provides that the
books are TO be sold in Kentucky
as eheaply as in any oIner State,
and if investigation bears out his
charge that the difference in the
books Is but subterfuge, a penalty
and reimbursement Will follow.
I'VE assume at the outset that
contractors will live up to their
contracts, and everything cannot be
lone at once, but / will say that if
MorrOw's charges are correct Ken
lucky schol children will not lose:
for there is bond, and restitution
can be had at any time"

Dear Lucy:

good dinner at sea. As rule,
one never gets one of those more
than twice year, but today the
cook simply outdid himself, and
We had real feast. Instead of
turkey. we had fresh pork. AT
the last minute in Texas, we
brought nine hogs along with US,
and consequently, have had fresh
meat all the way. We also had a
correct imitation of an Xmas

and numerous odds and ends and
whatnots as fillers-in. For once

ton to scofing everything he

more nor less than the ocean.

No Time For Idleness.

The production of food is a
prime factor in giving freedom to
the world. All abIe-bodied persons
should contribute their full energy
and service at all times. Idlers
are a reboarch upon and a menace
to the safety of any locality.
Now, as perhaps never before,
the world food needs are going
to call upon the United States.
We must do what we have been
expected to do all a long feed
others and ourselves too. This
is the only safe farming program,
and will be the safe program as
long as the world stands.
With this fact in mind let every.
one buckle down to hard work
that will be productive. Dest-
ruction has long enough taken
the time of the peoples of the
countries. A much greater work
lies ahead in construction, and a
much harder work.

Why Pay Subscription To The
Sentinel In Advance.

You ask the question, why
pay subscriptions ih~advance i?
Here is the explanation.
Let a farmer place himself in
a similar position and see if he
would not do likewise. Suppose
ne raises a thousand bushels of
corn, and his neighbor should
come and buy, and the price was
one dollar, or less, and says, 81
will pay the amount in a few
weeks" AS the farmer does
not want to be small about the
matter, he says, '.All right. ;"
Another comes, and so on, unit,
the thousand bushels of corn is
trusted to a thousand different
people and no one of them con-
Germs himself about it, for il is
a small amount they owe the far
mer, and of course will not help
any. He don't realize that the
farmer has frittered away his
entire crop of corn. and that it's
value is due in a thousand little
driblets. and that he is seriously
embarrassed in his business, be-
cause debtors treat it as a little
matter. But if all would paw
him promptly. which they could
as well as not. it would be a
large sum to the farmer and en-
able him to carry on his business
difficulty. Isn't it true?

Soldiers and Sailors Urged To
Hold On To Uncle Sans
Insurance.

approximately 1our mllll0
officers and men of the Arm,
and Navy are now insured wit
the United States Government
for grand total of almos
thirty-seven billion dollars.
You owe it to yourself and t.
your family to hold on to Uncle
Sam S insurance. 1t is the stron.
; gest, safest, and cheapest life in.
surance ever written.
For your protection Uncle Sam
has established the greatest life
insurance company in the world
a company as mighty, as generous
and as democratic as the United
States Government itself.
Just as Uncle Sam protected you
and your loved ones during the
war, so he stands ready to con-
tlnue this protection through the
days of readjustment and peace.
The privilege of continuing
your Government insurance is a
valuable right given to you as
part of the compensation. for
your heroic and triumphant SER
vices. If you permit the insur-
ance to lapse, you lose that right,
and you will never be able to re-
gain it. But if yon keep up your
present lnsurance-by the reg
ular payment of premiums you
will be able to change it into a |
standard Government policy with |
out medical examination. Mean
time yon can keep up your pres
ent insurance at substantially
the same low rate. The Govern
ment will write ordinary life in
surance, twenty-payment life,
endowment maturing at age 62,
and other usual sforms of insur-
ance. This will be Government
insurance-at Government rates
The United States Government
through the Bureau of War Risk
Insurance Of the Treasury De-
partment-wilf safegard you and
your loved ones with the spirit
and purpose of a Republic CRATE
full to its gallant defenders. To
avail yourself of this protection,
you must keep up your present in
surance. Carry back with you
to civil life, as an aid and an
asset, the continued insurance
protection of the United States /
Government.
Hold on to Uncle Sans insur- ,
ance.
