The True Patriots OF America.

The editor of this paper at
tended a conference of the edi-
tors of seven states, called to-
gether at St. Louis TO discuss the
floating of the six billion dollar
Victory Loan that will be offered
TO the people of America in a
drive that begins April 81. 1919.
Something like 900 editors at
tended and the general opinion
was that while the project is pro-
digious it could and would be
accomplished.
The people of America can
not afford TO get cold feet when
the war has been won and vic
tory is at hand. Our country
must have this money 10 finish
this job. Our patriotism must
not falter. We must hold up
Uncle Sans hands until victory
is complete, and our honor has
been liQuidated. This can be
done only by literally subscrIb-
ing for bonds, the proceeds of
which 60 TO pay the debts in
CURED in the accomplishment of
our liberties.
Patriotism never falters-it en-
dures until the country is safe
and its ideals have been eStab-
lished.
BY this sign we are TO know
who are the true patriots of
America.

schedule OF hours and hxed wages,
have been inaugurated by the Young
Womens Christian Association as a
means for meeting the problem Of do

The object of this course, now being
tried out in New York City is to place
domestic service on the same dignified
basis as clerical work, trained nursing
or other professions open to women
The home assistant will work eight
hours a day for salary of SIS week.
She will not live in the home OF her
employer or take her meals there. She
will have an hour for luncheon, when
she can go to restaurant or eat 4
lunch which she has brought with her
just as she would were she employed
in factory. The employer will not
address the home worker by her hrst
name. She will be Miss Smith or Mrs
Brown as the case may be-
Applicants for the course are care

pearing in large numbers. With the
same independence as to recreation

The Young Women,s Christian AssO-
citation has been interested In the prob
lem of domestic service both from the
standpoint of the employee and from
that of the employer for some years.
The first commission on Household
Employment made its report at the
fifth national convention OF the Young
Women's Christian Association held In
Los Angeles, Cal. in May. 1915.
The difficulties OF attracting capable
women in this field of work We're laid
TO the long hours, lack OF independence
in arranging recreation hours. lack Of
opportunities for growth and progress
and lack of social standing.
Girls have acquired de aste for
the conditions which govern household
work since the freedom they have ex-
perienced in working in munit1on fac

We commend ii TO the careful
consideration of every grower Of
cotton and enterprising business
man of this section.
The constitution proposes a
league of cotton growers for the
purpose of making cotton a sta

just recognition as an agricult
ural product and leave ii no

Allen, of the Smithville neigh
bOrhood.
The parent local associations
will be at Aberdeen, Amory and
Tupelo and from these Centers
will radiate until the entire cot
ton growing section is dotted
with locals. The organization
of the first parent association
was scheduled TO have taken
place at Amory yesterday. The
date for organizing at Aberdeen
and Tupelo has not yet been an
nOunced.
The time is now here when
cotton growers are compelled 10
act in united effort or else suffer
a loss in the principal product of
their toll. The sooner they CO
operate together in some such
association as is proposed, the
sooner will they be delivered
from the sharks of speculation
and realize the full profit Of grow
ing cotton. which is among the
needed materials of the world.

Mississippi received a deserved
compliment at the Southern Cat
tlemen's Convention in New Or
leans. as being one OF the first
Southern states to eradicate the
cattle tick. When tick free Missis-
sippi cattle arrive at the stockyards,
they are always in demand. Blooded
cattle brought into a tick-infested
section always die. as they cannot
be made immune to tick fever.
Mississippi is fast forging to the

beef cattle, and hogs that bring the
highest prices in the markets OF the

Ever since the armistice was

has fallen far below the tonnage
necessary to maintain if the coun-
try's normal needs are to be met. Of

January 1 to May 10 the output of
all mines in the country dropped 25
per cent below production during
the corresponding period last year.

President Montgomery, domestic

Favoritism Denounced

There is considerable discussion on
Capitol Hill of the several bills cut
ting out the favoritism shown the Ger
man element of the population in Of
fetal advertising. Provisions in exist
ing laws at the beginning of the pres
ent session of the Legislature the SEN
timent among the members was strong
ly in favor of repeating the common
clause so frequently appearing in many
acts to wit: "One of which shall be
in the German language" But as the
session draws to a close the German
interests have managed to pickle in
committee one or more of these re-
pealers and it is boasted in certain
quartres that the German clause will
be retained through political influence
All that is contemplated by the pend

datory provisions in favor of German
