ANSWER THE APPEAL

"The Hun is still watching is the
warning on one Of the posters for the
Victory Liberty Loan, and "Show him
we're in Earnest" is it's appeal.
This warning is a fact that every
American should bear in mind now.
Each individual should assume as
much responsibility as he can bear in
the way of a liberal subscription to
the present loan. It is the only way
the job can be finished in the proper
way.
If Germany in watching should no.
tice the slightest tagging of the Ameri-
can people during this campaign, it is
bound to arouse in her a certain
amount of hope. There must be no
tagging.
Answer the appeal. "Show the Hun
we're in earnest" by binding the
watching eyes with another victory.

AS AN AMERICAN

Your country is sill protecting
your rights, your liberties, your wei
fare. Still making it possible for you
to live as an American.
As an American you will always re-
ceive protection. The government
realizes it's duty to you and needs no
urging in the performance of this
duty.
AS an American you should not fail
to realize and appreciate what your
government is to you. You should be
awake to it's present situation. You
should know why billions of dollars
are needed.
AS an American you should render
the same help to the government that
it renders you. And as the govern
ment is constantly ready to protect
you regardless of the number of calls,
you should be ready and eager to re-
spond to its present appeal-the Vic
tory Liberty Loan.

MIR. BARROWS WITH HUSTLER.

Mr.. T. R. Barrows, for a long
time associate editor of this paper, is
with us again. Those who were priv
legged with a perusal of last weeks is
sue need not be told that Mr. Bar
rows had a hand in it's production,
That inimitable style of his carries a
personality that is readily recognized
in Hendersonville. When it m to
presenting news hat is news, in sucn
a way as to attract the most critical
reader, he stands in a class to him
self. This town never had a finer
booster in the newspaper game than
Tom BarOws and, although removed
from home environments for a con-
siderable period, his facile pen has
lost none of it's cunning; nor has his
faith in Hendersonville become the
least bit shaken. He still believes in
the old town and this paper CON
siders itself exceedingly fortunate IN
enlisting his valued services.
Mr.. Barrows succeeds to the pos.-
ton of managing editor and it is
needless to say that he will make this
album of song" a newspaper in fac:
as we'll as in name, with the kind OF
cooperation the progressive citizen
ship Of HendersonvilIe is capable OF
giving him. This paper has but one
outstanding purpose in existing-thac
of serving its constituency and having
a hand in the advancement Of Hen
Jacksonville. Anybody can knock, buc
that practice is generally employed by
those who happen to possess more
brass than brains. We would have
class take a back seat anC let the
boosters join with Mr.. Barrows and
paper in passing the word along:
Watch HendersonviIIe Crow"

FORGET WHEAT YOU HAVE DONE

Uncle Sam is no more able to pay
his present debts with money you lent
in previous loans than he was able
to meet a prevailing situation on the
battlefront in France with men who
had already given their lives in prey
ious drives.
Forget. what you have done.
When the American soldier was
called upon for another attacK, lie
didn't think of what he had done. but
OF what he had to do. The American
citizen is called upon TO prove him
self worthy of what the boys did in
France.
Even when victory was remote the
men on the batlefields went on with
enthusiasm. The people at home
were equally enthusiastic in contrf-
buting funds although they did not
know how many more times they
would be called upon. Victory was
their objective. They were, as deter
mined to reach it as we're the Ameri-
can soldiers.
How much more enthusiastic
should the nation be over this present
drive-the Victory Liberty Loan drive.
The objective has been reached soon
er than expected. This is the last
Liberty Loan.
The American army didn't fight and
fall back. It kept going ahead. The
American people are not going to fall
back either. They are going further
this time than ever before.

THE DEVIL QUITS.

The devil has resigned. No, not the
devil you are thinking ofAhe's still On
the job. The devil Of the Hustler
office has resigned. He said it was
getting too hot for him and he reck-
oned he would go out on Main stree.
for awhile and see if those benches
we're still there.
This little devil could, perspire, or
sweat, more perspiration or sweat
while contemplating a task than n
other person now upon earth. To
think of wrapping up a package Of
letterheads caused the sweat % break
out in great gobs upon his devilish
brow. To contemplate delivering
them gave him the appearance of hav-
ing taken a bath with all his clothes
on. When he swept the hardwood
floor of this Office he left pools of
moisture. in his tracks and it was
quite impossible for him to start a
fire during any of these charmingly
cool mornings we have had of late.
The atmosphere surrounding him was
altogether too, damp. So he said he
thought he would go to Ashevil1e,
where things were more quiet, by a
right-smart.
He leaned against, over and on top
the mahogany editorial desk while
handing in his resignation. He said
he was sorry, but he reckoned The
Hustler would have to get along
without him, if it could. So any III
usual shortcomings in this journal
this week may be charged up to the
devil. Most things are charged up to
him, anyway.

and others interests by staying in
that section of the country. The re-
| cent occurrence in Austin furnishes
ample evidence Of the fact that. Mr..
Shillady Is OF no Importance In
Texas, and that he Is not wanted in
that State.
Nor are Mr.. Shillady, Mary Owing
ton or others who think and act as
they do, wanted in Texas or else
where in the South. Let them conf1ne
their labors to their own sections.
II they want social equality, "amal.
gamation Of the races" etc., they
are welcome to 1t In their own HON es
but not in the South.
Events Of not very distant date
in Chicago, in New York and in other
sections where negroes have come
together in large numbers from tho
South have proven that "the South's
problem becomes 1.-The North's pro-
blem" in limited way. The North
at times, in various sections, at
tempts "social equality" and gener-
ally ends the attempt with liberal
use Of the bludgeon and hot bullets
The South abhors "social equality"
refuses to accept 1t or it's advocates,
but gives the negro u square DEAL
each race working in it's own way to
the common end Of living peaceably
together, yet separate and distinct,
as God intended 1t should be.
If the Shilladys and Ovingtons will
but get busy with their own affairs
and not interfere with "the South's
problem" the South and the other
sections Of our great country will be
better for the transfer Of their ener-
gies.

JUST ANOTHER WARNING.

Yes, we are ready to admit that
we are somewhat "o!d iogylah' and
probably bit oyer-careful about the
rights OF others, but we want to
give at least one more warning
against careless or thoughtless driv-
ing OF automobiles. We have been
warming against carelessness and
thoughtlcSsneS for long time. So
far no one has been killed in our
town or in the immediate vicinity,
but the fatal accident is going to
happen yet If auto drivers are not
more careful in their driving and
thoughtful in the matter Of giving
warning Of their approach.
An accident with q horse or mule
may be avoided by giving the driver
Of the animal warning of your cars
approach by use Of horn or other
signal. There are hundreds Of
short turns and sharp curves in the
roads Of this vicinity where an ac-
cident may happen at any moment,
yet there is no need Of accidents hap
pening at these places If automobile
drivers will give warning Of their
APPROACH and bring their cars down
to reasonable speed. Not one auto.
Mobile driver out Of ten in this sec
tion ever uses q warning signal. AND
1t is true that nine times out O
ten the signal is not needed. Blu
what about the fatal tenth tim,
that is apt TO come, when the use 0
the signal might prevent Il serious
even fatal, accident?
Better TO be safe than sorry. Sor
