North Carolina, as o state, has q rec
ord in the World War which will al
ways be the occasion of great and just
pride to her future generations. Every
call made of the Old North State, for
men, money, food, manufactured prod
ucts, was promptly and generously
met. The war record Of the boys in
the service, and none have better, has
been matched by the women and men
who at all times stood solidly back of
their fighting sons. Her boys were
in the thick of the battle and those at
home saw to it that the farms, facto-
ries, banks, business generally and eff
forts individually, were all lined up to
win the war. Every appeal for funds
was met and over. Liberty Bonds War
Savings Stamps, the Red Cross, 7. d.
C. A and other welfare agencies all
received generous support from the
people of North Carolina.
War Is Over.
!, The war is won and for the most
Of us 1t is over and done with. The
boys coming back from France cast
off their uniform with a feeling OF q
job well and completely done. It To
over for them. Theyr~1ave done all
that was asked or expected Of them
and better. + But there are few
phases Of the war in which the home
folks took part, that are not as yet
completed. In mind is the United
War Work Campaign which was held
November of last year. North Caro-
lima pledged q total Of $1,20S, 900. OF
this grand total there has only been
paid in up to this time the amount
of 1901, 900. All Of this money was
pledged in entire good faith by the cit
izenship of the state. The war il over
but only half of the boys have been
sent home from France. Those that
remain are impatient and restless
and chafing to get back. Put yourself
in a foreign country, with strange
faces and languages, bound by On iron
discipline and with your thoughts
turning ever to HOME. How would
you feel? The welfare agencies,
which co-operated in the United Waz
Work Campaign, are at the present
time doing one OF the biggest pieces
of work in their history. ~~g

SALE OF BEDS VERY GREAT DUR.
ING MAY.

w! A. Kunsman, manager of the M
cal branch of the Southern Rome Bed
Company, in comparing his sales dur
ing the month of May this year t6 the
month of May in 1918 found that his
sales in May of this year were 280 per
cent more than the sales for the COR
responding month in 1918.
This is thought to be merely an ex-
ample of the prosperity of the local
manufacturing plants and prediction
for a still greater business to come
later when things have been more
fully adjusted.
