Thomas f. Lykins, of Mansfield,

his home after a very pleasant visit
TO relatives and friends IN Morgan
county. Mr.. Lykins is a son of the
late w. B. Lykins, and grandson of
Judge william Lykins, both of Nor

companied by his sister, Mrs. A. X.

kins, and will visit Mrs. Asa Pieratt
and returning home from here he
hopes to stop over in Lexington and
visit his uncle, Joe Lykins. Mr.. Ly-
kins had time TO tell us of things
political and agricultural. There is
quite a Kentucky settlement in and
around Mansfield. When Mr.. Lykins
first went TO Mansfield he found the

that the campaign Of publicity has

From the Savings Herald. Official
Paper Of the War Savings
Organizafion)
One of the gratifying features of
the War Savings Campaign in the
Eighth Federal Reserve District is
the magnificent support that has been
accorded the movement by the press
Of Missouri, Arkansas and Kentucky.
In practically every community in
these three states the newspapers
have gladly contributed space to
carry the message of the United
States Treasury Department to the
four corners of each state. To this
splendid support, may, in large
measure, be attributed the excep-
tional standing of the Eighth Federal
Reserve District IA the volume of
sales Of the Government Securities.
The articles which newspapers
have printed have been of an educa-
tional character setting forth the de-

individual acquiring the. saving and

Practically all Of the news matter
carried by the Kentucky, Arkansas
and Missouri newspapers touching
on the Thrift Campaign has been
prepared in the Press Bureau Of the
Eighth Federal Reserve District at
ST. Louis under the supervision OF
Mr.. L. A. Wilson, the Government
Director. Many Of the articles have
been written by eminent .financiers
and experts in other lines of endeav-
or and have been rewritten, con-
densed and made clear to the lay
man by force of trained newspaper
workers who have given their best
efforts to the task.

control the destinies of the War Saw

article leaves the Bureau that does

to high standard of literary merit.

Not pausiug an instant, dashed Peter
Mcclure.
Oh those terrible moments of anxious
suspense!
How eager their watching, their feals
how intense.
And how great WAS their joy, which
was madly expressed
When Peter appeared with the child
Oh his breast.
A shout rent the air when the darling
he laid
In the arms of her mother, so pale
and dismayed.
And as Alice looked up and most
gratefully smiled,
He bowed down his head and he wept
like a child.
Oh those tears of brave manhood
that raincd down his face
Showed the true grace of nature and
the nature of grace.
Consider such natures, and then if
you can,
Preach total depravity, mate in man!
Talk of blasphemy, why, tits profan-
ity wild
To think that the Father thus cursed
his own child!
Go learn of the clouds and the dew
spangled sod
That all things rejoice in the good
ness Of God;
And that each thing created is good
in its place,
And nature is but the expression Of
grace.
