Celebrating.
Monday was given over in large
measure to celebrating—celebrating
the ending of the war. Big towns
and little ones celebrated. Faces
cast off the expression of tense care
and in its place there came a gleam
of joy and pleasure. Everywhere,
throughout the land, the people cele
brated. Bells pealed, whistles tooted,
guns were fired, fire crackers made
big noises, the people quit business
and went forth. Rejoicing was
broadcast.

love-story runs through this power
ful narrative. _____

Farmers' National Congress at Jack
sonville, Florida, Dec. 3 -6.
Jacksonville, Fla., Nov. 11. —
The City Council at a recent meet
ing strongly endorsed the Farm
ers' National Congress, which
meets December 3-6 inclusive,
and is enthusiastioally co-operat
ing with the Chamber of Com
merce and other organizations to
make the coming event a big suc
cess.
Under the auspices of the Cham
ber of Commerce an Information
Bureau has been established, con
ducted by prominent men and
women, whe will perfect arrange
ments for the comfort of all visi
tors. The Florida State Fair will
be open while the Congress is in
session. While Jacksonville ex
pects an enormous the
system being perfected guarantees
there will be no congestion, or
any other difficulties, which
usually characterize such events.
The entertainment committees
have planned unique and distinc
tive features, which will delight
all.
Undoubtedly the coming Con
gress is the most important gather
ing affecting farming interests
that has ever been held in this
country, and hundreds of the most
progressive men of the Nation
allied in these enterprises will be
present to actively participate in
the deliberations. Special enter
tainments are being arranged by
prominent men and women for
women visitors, who will attend
the National Farm Women's Con
gress, to be held in conjunction
with the Farmers' Nat ional Con
gress.
Side trips have been arranged
and will iuclude a visit to St.
Augustine, the oldast and most
intensely interesting and historic
town in the country. Specinl rates
on all railroads and the occasion
gives an opportunity to see Jack
sonville and Florida at their best.
Jacksonville, a city of 125,000,
now has seven xhipbuildlng plants
and various other war industries.
It also has an army camp, modern
in every particulary, housing 25,-
000 soldier boys. This camp is
beautifully located on the St.
Johns River, a few miles south of
the city, easily reached by hard
surfaced roads, and furnishing
within itself a most interesting
sight.
Another Liberty Loan Coming-
Secretary of the Treasury Mc-
Adoo, has announced that, no mat
ter what the result of the pending
overtures for peace may be, there
will be another Liberty Loan. To
use his expression, ''We are going
.to have to finance peace for awhile
just as we have had to finance
war."
There are over 2,000,000 United
States soldiers abroad. If we trans
port these men back to the Unites
States at the rate of 300,000 a month
it will be over half a vear be/or?
before they are all returned. Our
Army, therefore, must be maint lin
ed, victualed and clothed for many
months after peace is an actuality.
The American people, therefore,
having supported the Liberty Loan
with a patriotism that future his
torians will love to extol, will hive
an opportunity to show the same
patriotism in financing the Just ani
conclusive victorious peace when
ever it comes.
Not for a moment however, i*
the Treasury acting on any as
sumption that peace is to come
soon. Until peace is actually as
sured the attitude of the Treasury
and the attitude of the whol" Un t
ed States Government is for the
most vigorous prosecution of the
war, ana the motto of force » (ainst
Oermany without stint or limit will
be acted up to until neac? is an ab
solute accomo'ished fact.
One more Liberty Loin, at I 'ast,
certain. The fourth loin was popu
larly called the 'Fi rhtinf Linn;'
the next loan miy be a fi ;htin-;
loan, too, or it mny be a peace 10-«n.
Whatever the conditions h" loan
must be prepare! for and its suc
cess rendered certain and abs"l ite.
Begin now to prepare to support it.
The schools in Greensboro re
opened Monday after being closed
five weeks on account of influ
enza.
Readjustment of Labor Cottle* With
Ending o. .T^.
Charlotte Observer.
With endinggf the war there'
is going to be an enforced read
justment of labor conditions of
the country. It is bound to be so,
and we are likely quite soqn to see
a shaking in the independent dis
position which has so long pre
vailed oti part of labor in all
lines The day is coming when
the merchant may pick up p man
for a job of hauling; when the
'hbuseholder may secure a service
about tho house; when people who
want odd jobs done; when the
farmer cau setfire an extra hand
or have his cotton picked without
being held up for three or four
times the value ot the service.
Relief is coining to tho manage
ments of factories and machine
shops and to the promoters of all
lines of industry as well as to the
farming class of the country, and
this relief will come through the
returu of over two million men
from France, most of whoin went
there without a professional occu
pation, but who are coiniug home
fully equipped in some particular
line of work. They will make ap
plication not for clerkships or for
kid glove occupations of any kind,
but they will turn to the factories
and the mills and to the farms,
and to these occupations they will
bring intelligent and efficient
service. __The Army cainps have
acted as~great. educational factors
"in the lives of the young men ot
the country and a large per cent
of the'se will never returu to their
former occupations. They will
apply themselves to the pursuit"
of new endeavors to which their
minds have been directed and for
which they are particularly adapt
ed by reason of the techuical train
ing they have been given. It was
an Army of drones that was sent
to the camps.
It is an energetic Army of train
ed and intelligent workers in use
ful and profitable avocations that
have gone forth and are to go
forth from these camps. Tho sol
dier comes home a laborer in the
finest sense of the word and with
new visions of life. He is going
to give dignity to labor aud it is
through this dignity that the de
mocracy of the world iss-to be
hastened. The people are destin
ed to see a complete revolution in
labor conditions following the re
adjustment of the country to
peace, end it will be a readjust
ment that will operate to the bet
terment of all social and economic
life. It will be' through this in
flux of trained labor that the in
dustries are to secure a supply of
efficient labor, and it is through
efficiency in the industrial and
general laboring world that a
proper balance is going to be
struok between skilled and un
skilled work and the abnorm
alities which have prevailed in
wages for the ordinary run of la
bor are going to be removed.
Don't Sell Your Liberty Bonds; To
Hold Them is Patriotic, to
Keep Them is Wise.
The wide distribution- among
millions of Americat) citizens of
Liberty loan bonds makes our
Liberty loans, according to Secre
tary of the Treasury McAdoo's
expressed opinion, the soundest of
national finauciug. That these
bonds be kept widely distributed
amongst the American people is
of gr at importance to the Nation
and to the individual holders of
the bonds.
United States Government
bonds in the past have gone above
par, as high as $l3O for a SIOO 4
per cent bond. That Liberty
bonds will go well above par when
peace comes is very probable.
Holding one's Liberty bonds,
therefore, is wise as well as pa
triotic.
Every holder of a Liberty loau
bond should heed the caution to
.hold to his or her bonds, becitUM
there are going to bo great ottogto
by shrewd Mid. unscrupulous pM*
pie to bay or MBbre at inadequate
prices these bonds from holder#
who are not well ijoilruied as to
stock and bond v>ilues.
Worthless or near-worthless
stock or stock of only speculative
value—"wildcat stocks" they are
called -are going to be offered for
Liberty bonds. Some will b«
urged not to sell or exchange their
Liberty bonds, but to buy the
stock and give the Liberty bonds
HS security for the purchase price.
This is a camouflaged attempt to
get Liberty bonds in exchange for
the stock of their companies.
It.every holder of a Liberty
bona will consu't u bank before
he disposes of it, the get-rich
quick concerns will not prosper,
but the individual bond-holders
will, and the American {teople as
a whole will be benefited.
ROBUSTNESS
Nature has not been prodigal
with everybody in the matter
of robustness. Many, all
through life, must stand guard
and combat colds, coughs,
bronchitis or perhaps more
serious pulmonary ailments.
For nearly five decades
SCOTTS
EMULSION
has been helping to turn
weakness into strength. For
those who are delicate, with
tender lungs, weak throats and
a proneneM to debility and
anemia, the definite nourish- jft

l Scott'a are of special value. kW
