Economy by the Square Yard
The most economical paint is the one
which spreads farthest, covers moat thor
oughly,and lasts the longest. It costs least
per square yard and per year.
Dutch Boy white-lead, mixed with pur*
linseed oil, is unsurpassed in spreading
and covering qualities. It will not bliater
or crack; it defies snow, rain, and sun.
Our stock of painting materials is com

satisfied with what you buy of us, no

SELECTIVE DRAFT W
EFFECT IN MOSES TIME
B«ck«M is Hi*
April IS.—Governor Bick
«tt in his speech Iwr* Udty attar an
alyiinf the selective draft law «M:
"But after all this law U imply
another illustration of tka saying of
Solomon that 'there la nothing now
under tho sun.' I «u born and,
brought up hore in Union county, and
I know ita people. I know you arc
a working poople. Everybody works,:
including father. You are a frugal
poople. You believe In denying your-]
aelf something today for tie protec- j
tion of tomorrow. You are a God
; fearing people. You read your Bible
and you go to church.
"Being Bible readers you have
doubtless already discovered thai the
first selective draft service law was
| given by God Himself to Mooes in
' the Wilderness of Sinai on Uie first
1 day of the second month of the second
! year after the Israelites left the land
of Egypt.
"Under thin law Moses wn directed
to register for military service every
male person in Israel 20 yearn old and
' upwards who wan physically fit to go
to war. Numliers 1:1-3.
"The heads of the Eleven Tribes
were designated to assist Mmes, the
commander-in-chief, in the adminis
tration of thia selective draft law.
' N-'m^.era 1:4-16. This is identiral
with the plan of the present law,
which require* the governors of the
several states to assist the President.
"The Le/ites (the ministers of th«?
Gonpel) were excepted from the oper
ation of the law. and no one from the
tribe of I>evi was called. Numbers
' 1 '
"The quota of each tribe I -.tale»
was determined by the numl>er of
Imnle- in the tribe over "0 yeyrs of
age nnd physically fit for »'«■. Ni:m
! bers 1: 18-45.
"The total registration under this
selective draft law in Israel amounted
' to B03.550 soldiers. Nunbers 1:46.
"Men who had jnst married were
given a deferred classification Deut.
24:5.
I "Every tribe was called to serve
under its own standards. Numbers,
chapter 2.
"Th. if who stayed at home wire re
quired to pay money (buy liberty
bond). Numbers 111:45-49.
"Thus were the armies of Israel
raised to make good their escape from
the house of bondage (autocracy) nnd
to secure them a dwelling place in the
land of promise (a world safe for de
, mocracy.)
"Of course there are some differen
ces in details, but the principle of the
present selective draft law ia identi
ral with the law given to Moses by
Jehovah in the wilderness of Sinai."
Disloyalist Ready to Eat
Flag After being Flogged.
Birmingham, Ala. April 20.—Placed
•cross a barrel, an Ensley peddler
named Holzclaw was severely whip
ped with straps at Ilessie Mines in
this county this afternoon in the pre
sence of nearly 1,000 people, forced
to kiss the American flag and ordered
to leave the town immediately and
never return. He has not been seen
since.
"I cannot stand this; take me out
and shoot me," he cried as the lashes
fell upon him.
When told to kiss the flag he said
"yes, I will eat it if necessary."
He was taken from en officer who
had arrested him this morning. He
wa< charged with telling negroes that
Germany was sure to win the war;
that the Germans would finally take
America just as they took Belgium
and that men were foolish to join the
army.

Notice to
Timber Men
We have orders for 20,000 No. 1. cross ties from
White Oak, Post, and Chestnut oak, standard specifica
tions of 7"X8"X8 feet and 6 inches long, when sawed and
7"X7" hewed, same length as sawed.
We also have order for 5,000 No. 2 cross ties, to be
any size under the above sizes, down to 6"X7" and length
to be the same as for No. ones, also to be from above
kinds of oak timber.
Almost all timber haulers already know the speci
fication and we mention this for those who will be getting
out timber this year who have not made ties before.
Also all this timber must be sound, all knots smoothed
off with the tie and all bark peeled off when either sawed
or hewed.
A great many haulers lose their grade by measuring
with their axe handles and we would ask that you cut a
pole exactly eight and one half feet long and make all
ties according to this length, and notch it for 7 Inchea to
get face and thickness.
At this time we also wish to thank the hundreds of
people who sold their timber to us last year and beg to
assure them of the same fair and courteous treatment for
the coming season.
The price, effective February 1st is (*0 cent* each for
No. 1 ties and 50 cents for second class.
For Red Oak, Spanish Oak, and all other kinds of
oak (except the above mentioned kinds,) also Hickory
and Ash we will pay 50 cents for No. l's, and 40 cents for
No. 2's, same specifications aa above.
