WANTS SCARLET RIDERS BACK
Canada in Worldwide Search for
Members of Northwest Mounted
Police.

Vancouver, B. C.-The world is to
be searched by officers of the royal
northwest mounted police to locate for
mer members of the Scarlet Riders and
bring them back to the fold.
When the European war broke out
the mounted police were not permitted
to enlist as unit. Some of the men
disappeared" and were not heard from
until they distinguished themselves on
the battlefeIds. Later unit of the
"mounties" was accepted for service.
Investigation has disclosed that some
of the best known Scarlet Riders are
in the Holy land, others in Africa, Aus
tralia and the Orient. The government
wants it's Scarlet Riders back, and will
do it's share to bring them home.

LAST BIG LOAN IN
FIVE-YEAR NOTES
Secretary Glass Calls for Widest Dis
tribution by Intensive Campaign in
Victory Liberty Drive from April
21-May 10.

The Liberty Loan organization Of
New England, following the instruc-
tons of Carter Glass, Secretary of the
Treasury, Is completing arrangements
and Strengthening lines in every city
and town in the six states for the Vic
tory Liberty Loan which opens Mon
day, April 81 and ends May 10.
Secretary Glass announces that this
will be the last loan campaign under
taken by the Government and that the
same kind OF intensive campaign for
the widest possible distribution is the
aim and need of the Government.
The Secretary says: THE new issue
will be one of short term notes run
ming not over five years, which will
serve the interests of the United
States at this time better than by the
issuance of longer term bonds which
would have to bear the limited rate Of
interest of Az o." The exact interest
rate will be made known April 10.
The notes will be, as were the Lib
erty Loan bonds, a direct promise to
pay of the United States and will
have interest coupons attached COW
ering the entire life Of the note. Sec
rotary Glass expects the engraved
notes will be ready for delivery April
81.
He says: 81 am led to adopt the
plan issuing short term notes rather
than long term bonds mainly because
l believe short term issue will main
tain price at about par after the
campaign is over, more readily than
would longer term issue.
THE Treasury Department will
carry on the same intensive campaign
distribution as heretofore. It will be
unfortunate If the people fail to take
these notes, placing the burden of
subscription on the banks. The bust
ness of the country looks to the banks
for credit to carry on its operations,
and if that credit is absorbed largely
by buving Government securities,
there will be many limitations in
supplying credit for business purposes
81 therefore ask the American PEG
pie to give their support again to the
Government that this loan may be
made an Overwhelming success by the
widest possible distribution"

ARMY SWEETS TOO RICH
German Children Ate So Many Amer

Became III.

Paris.-A carload of chocolate billed
to the American army of occupation
in Germany was wrecked near Trier.
Before the American salvage crew got
to work German children of families
living near by ate quantities of the
sweets and started homeward with all
they could carry.
Many of the children had never
tasted chocolate before, this form of
candy being among the Injuries which
Germany was virtually unable to sup
ply during the war. The result was
that the boys and girls, became ill and
had to be treated by physician.

Statement to the Public
We, the Board of Supervisors of
Grenada County desire to make the
following statement to the public.
In answer to certain complaints the
board ordered the books of the Coun-
ty Agent to be audited to ascertain
whether Or not there was any ground
for dissatisfaction or complaint. The
audit has been completed and the
Auditors Report shows that every
thing is absolutely on the square.
In view 0 fthe above facts we hope
that Grenada County will line up with
our farm demOnstrtor and furnish
him all possible advice and support.
His management of the business af-
fairs Of the office is not only clean
and open but far sighted as well. His
books show that the net saving which
he has affected on the things which
he has purchased for the farmers is
greater than the salary which is paid
him by the county.
1t also to the knowledge Of
the board through the head of dem
o%nstratiOn work for the State of Mis-
sissippi that Grenada County has as
many hogs on feed as any other three
counties in the State and also the fact
'that Grenada is the only county
where farmers can market their live
charges for local expense.
AS Supervisors, we feel proud of
the work of u demonstration and
what he is doing and we sincerely
hope that every citizen of the county
will give him their undivided and I'M
stinted support.
Ordered that the clerk advertise for
fids for furnishing steel joints for
Bogue Bridge just east of Grenada
also for bids for furnishing steel or
concrete posts for the approaches of
said bridge according to plans and
specifications on file in the chan
Gerry clerks office; open bids to be
submitted at the September term, the
board reserving the right to reject
any and all bids to adopt either the
steel or concrete posts.
1t appearing that only three mem
bers of the board were present and
participated in the condemnation of
rights of way for new Graysport
road in District One and new john
son rOa din District Two, and that
one of these three members is absent
