Authorities Get Wires Crossed

Evidently the Washington authori- ties have gotton their wires crossed somewhere along the line" said Paul Barnett, for Dr. P. B. Wells, pastor of the Highlands Methodist church, an- nounces a mothers day programme for the day. and his request to do so came from the woman's headquarters of the Victory Loan at Atlanta working un- der the federal reserve bank.

Strenuous Week Needed
 For the Victory Loan

7H HE drive for the Victory Loan U must be intensive this week if the country is to reach the goal four and half billion dollars. Increased activity in the campaign has been shown within the last two days, but there must be still greater activity tomorrow and every day un- til the amount sought is fully sub scrihed.
 Jefferson county is making good progress. Let's make this strenuous week. Birmingham has an overtime top record. We will surely not fail 1 in this Victory Loan. If you cannot invest thousand dollars, subscribe for five hundred dollars worth of the governments securities. If that is too large an amount, invest fifty or a hundred dol lars even though you have to prac- tice self denial to do so. Your pa triotism is put to the test. Monday should be red letter day throughout Alabama. x T # Wives of Germanys peace delegates lost no time in filling up on pastry and sweets when they reached Versailles.

k * * Duty of Voters To Go To the Polls Tuesday

1T PETERSON county on Tuesday O will elect member of the state legislature to succeed Representative Huey, who has become member of the board of revenue, and it is the duty of every voter in the county to participate in this special election.
 No obligation is more important to the citizen than the selection of the men who make the laws under which he lives. There are four candidates in the field and no doubt every man has a preference among them. He therefore should make this preference felt.
 Too many voters have the habit of criticizing public officials after they are elected when such voters did not even show enough interest on election day to go to the polls and vote their choice.
 This should not be so Tuesday. Whoever wins, let the victor be able to say that he was selected after a full, fair and representative vote of the county had been cast.
 The candidates from whom choice will be made are J. A. Estis, L. J. Ha- ley, w. H. Harrison and Roy E. Per kins.

 Appeal Popular

E oLLoW1NG the Victory Loan 4 campaign there will be nation wide appeal for funds for the Salva- tion army. This organization has al- ways been held in high esteem, but it's war work has brought it forward more prominently than ever. The good it accomplished in France can never be overestimated.
 It's unostentatious methods and it's 5 service among the poor and neglected in the United States are known every where. It labors unselfishly and earn estly in behalf of humanity and it's activities are presently to be extended. Community houses are to be estab- Eshed by the Salvationists in all pop uIous centers and it is to develop and maintain this work that millions of dollars will be needed.
 No benevolent cause will come closer x6 the heart than this. The appeal I'll bring generous response. The Ffyation Army is Christian body, b6ts every right-minded citizen, re- eSrdless of creed, will be cheerful eiver when the campaign begins. r
