SAVINGS STAMPS
SHOULD Be HELD
State Director Warns Owners
Not to Sell Them for
Bond Reinvestment.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, April 25.
(Spl)-While the people of every COM
munity in Tennessee are in the midst
! Of the great drive for sale Of Victory
Liberty bonds, the value of investments
IN war savings stamps Is not to be for
gotten, j. W. Bishop, state director for
the savings division of the war loan
organization for this state, today is
sued a statement emphasizing the fool
ishness Of selling war savings stamps
= NE purpose OF investing in bonds.
No Profit in Change.
Il am influenced to remind our peo-
pie OF the war savings campaign in the
midst of the Victory loan drive by rea-
son o. reports from various sections Of
the state that holders of war savings
stamps are surrendering them and re.
investing their money in the Victory
bonds, he said. at should he evident
TO anybody that nobody can l'rofit from
any such process. The gov rnment is
clearly, the loser and the ii lividual Is
none the gamer. What good comes to
the government treasury when a man
draws therefrom $500, say, and then
invests that same $500 in Victory
nonds! The government must take
care OF the clerical work Of this trans
fer, the cost Of which is obviously a
net loss to the treasury. 1t is no wi
denoe of patriotism TO pursue any such
a practice. even ones neighbors not
being fooled by a supposedly liberal act.
On the other hand the holder Of the
stamps gives up a security Of known
value that draws interest at the rate
OF ~ per cent compounded quarterly.
Hold Savings Stamps.
"I am informed that such a with
drawal of funds has been frequent in
some localities in this state, and /
would appeal to all our war savers to
hold on to their savings stamps, at the
SAINT tim investing to their limit In
the Victory bonds so as to have a hand
In finishing the job 80 well undertaken
and so successfully executed by our
soldiers. War savings represent a pol
Icy OF economy and thrift that Is to be
encouraged for all the years to come.
Investment in Victory bonds Ia a patri-
clal theory of investment through
which money Is loaned to the govern
ment at a time Of serious need, but
which Is represented by a security hat
la Of a purely commercial character and
worth the money. The two are not in
conflict In any particular, We want
the people to Invest In the bonds, but
certainly they should not surrender
their savings stamps In order to seem
to be patriotic In buying the Victory
securities. Wal savings stamps are
err finds 1t necessary for him to secure
all or a part of the money he has in
vested, but they were not made re-
deemable for the purpose Of encourage
ing n change in the character Of gov
eminent securities owned or for the
purpose OF helping individuals seem
more patriotic than they really are"

GIVES SOUTH AMERICAN
TRADE TIPS TO u. S.

NEW YORK, April 25,-Robert s
Barrett, commercial attache at the
American embassy at Buenos Aires, has
arrived here to tell manufacturers and
exporters Of this country the condition
Of trade affairs in South America.
THE Argentine is prosperous" said
Mr., Barrett, but Is virtually isolated
because OF labor troubles. The root Of
the trouble lies In the fact that while
all over the world the war conditions
improved the position Of labor, In Ar
gentina the cost Of living advanced
100 per cent, while labor got only about
20 per cent advance In wages.
THE workmen were compelled to
strike, and now that they have pro-
duced agitators the situation Ia far
more difficult for the government to
contend with than before. They are
fighting for the right to boycott, They
contend that they have the right 10

MUNICH SPARTACANS
GET TRAINED OFFICERS

BERLIN, April %. (By the Associated
Press.)-The Munich SpartaCans have
secured the services Of six trained
military officers as leaders of the red
guard. They are Coils. Staubwasser,
Langloss and Baron Won Zoller, who led
%brigades during the war; Maj. Para
Din, who Joined the majority socialists
after the revolution and led the revo-
lutionary student body of Munich uni
versity and worked for the transition
OF the university into a peoples high
school; Capt, Hwehl, a eil-known Ba-
varian cavalry officer, and the prince
OF Wied. a well-known gentleman rider.
The adherence of these men to the
Spartacan ranks is the first indication
that other persons than Of the lowest
classes were participating IN the up
rising against law and order. SPARTA
cans under their command have forth
fled the Krupp works at Fireman.,
north of Munich. and attacked the gov
eminent troops near Pfaffenhofen, with
a loss of several killed and so men
made prisoners,
The red guard newspaper Ia appear
ing regularly in Munich with reports
from the front. These resemble the
old regime German war reports and
are said to tell Of Victories and often
mention battles which are declared by
the loyal government forces to have
occurred only in the imagination OF
their authors,
The fate OF the hostages in Munich
Is still a matter Of doubt.

A SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY
CONCENTRATED CASTOR OIL.
It's In Jelly Form

After many years of experimentation,
u chemists have discovered a means
of concentrating CASTOR OIL into
jelly form and then favoring it. ,
This new product is called CASTOR
JELL and is replacing CASTOR OIL
wherever introduced.
The only difference between CASTOR
JELL and CASTOR OIL is that one Is
a jelly agreeably favored, the other a
liquid with the old familiar taste. A
35c. jar contains ten doses and costs less
than Castor Oil. Doctors recommend
Castor-Jel when Castor Oil is needed.
Take home a 35c. jar today. Your
druggist will give you your money back

ST. VALENTINE

The st. Valentine who Uttered mar
tyrdom on the 14th of February was
one of fifty-two saints Of that name
but nothing has ever been found in
his life or in the lives of any OF them,
that would give occasion for the sin
gular observance Of the day. 1t has
been maintained that it was an an
cient custom among Romans during
the Lupercaha celebrated in the
month of February, for the boys and
men todraw the names of their future
wives in honor of their goddess, Feb
ruate Juno, and that the Christian
clergy finding it absolutely impossible
to abolish this heather practice
changed it to religious ceremony
by writing on the slips of paper in
stead of the names of women those
of particular saints whom they were
to follow and initiate during the
years.

Why Is 1t?

Why is it that some of our farmers
only receive $125 per acre for their
tobacco while others receive from
$500 to $4,000 per acre?
This is caused by negligence and
failure in the one important point of
having plenty of early plants so that
you can get your crop set early, Civ
ing it plenty of time to mature by the
last week in August. She early cut
ting never fails to give the desired
colors, which is required to bring the
high price.
No farmer can afford to neglect
these points, as it takes just as much
labor and expense to handle a late,
dark, mean crop as it does to grow
an early one, that will bring you
about four times the amount of mon
ey.
