SMITH dOTHING STORE Clotbes that Satisfy Army Deserter Take* Hit Life u Pursued Durham Oct. 18.—News has been re ceived here to the effect that Bea man Pickard. who left Durham a* a member of company M of the national guard, and was later transferred toj the engineer corps of the rainbow di vision, had killed himself because he was under sentence for desertion. Pickard escaped the guards before i company M left Durham and had to! be apprehended. Later he deserted his company in training camp, and when he was transferred to the engineering division he left again, only to be ap- 1 prehended. His violations had been so flagrant that he was sentenced to be shot. The sentence caused the man to lose his mind, or at least he gave every ev- 1 idence of having become demented. On this account he was paroled and a guaid was detailed to watch him. He was being held in a building some where near the tarining quarters in New York state, according to the story that is reliably related here. In some manner he managed to escape the guards and jumped from the win dow of the building in which he was held a prisoner. The fall killed him. A Piece of Good Fortune.

Tile Youth's Companion, Common wealth A vs., Boston Mils i ill i—in mi nil in— Hi YOUR DOLLARS CANNOT BE NEUTRAL You muiit be either for or againat j the soldier boys now marching to the trenches in France. You must either be for or against your Conutry. Therr is no half-way station; no betwixt or I between. Your dollar* rannot be neutral. Unci* Stun needs your financial an distance. American success in this I war depends upon our sending: an j army fully equipped, efficiently train ed, amply supplied with every requis ite of the field. Every link in the mil-; itary chain must be strong. We darej not take chances. Germany'! tremendous aggressive- j ness in this conflict has been made pos sible only by the highest efficiency in every detail. The Geramns were pre pared at every point when they loosed the dogs of war and sent their armies hurling through Belgium on the way to Paria. Let's not send to France the pride of America's young manhood—the boys for whom in any other emergency we would make any sacrifice, any whit less prepared. Take care of your loyalty to the army, and your loyalty to the Conutry will take care of itaelf. There are numerous ways of serv ing the Kaiser. And withholding your support from the boys we have sent, and will yet send to the front, the boys whom the world at large ia watching closely and expectantly, ia by no means the least of these. You would bitterly and instantly re sent any other charge of disloyalty to your country. Probably you haven't considered this phase of the situation, but calmly think it over for a moment and you will get the point. You rannot afford, even uncon sciously, to leave open this wee loop hole for question. It will be far cheaper and more self-satisfying to buy a I.iherty Bond. Mr*. Louisia Prather Banner.
