SIMMONS IS FOR MORRISON
Some folks out-spoke tKcnisolves
when they started the rumor that
per.sonal differences have arisen be
tween Senator Simmons and Mr. Cam- cognition, but not yet ready to assume
ful conclusion. We are not at all sur-
orised to find him supporting Mr. Mor
rison for Governor. He might be
iubbod an ingrate if he had failed
to do so.
It is not s\irprising, either, to find
former Governor Craig supporting
Mr. Morrison. He, too, owes him
aiuch and should be commended for
ahowing a spirit of gratitude at the
first opportunity to repay in kind a
debt contracted years ago and not yet
liquidated according to the rules of
statesmanship.
Ingratitude is a species of cus-
sednecs that finds no place in a circle
compoi'ed of thorough-bred gentle
men.
THE PRESIDENT TO CONGRESS
In laying the peace convenant be
fore Congress on Thursday President
Wilson argued strongly the necessity
for linking with it the League of Na-
ticns. It means, the President said,
that people hitherto in utter darkness
were to be led out into the same light
and given, at last, the same helping
hand that is extended to the victors
of the war. He laid strong emphasis
upon the dav/n of a new era when
“undeveloped peoples ready for re-
eron Morrison, of Charlotte, one of
the a;jp!rants for the democratic nom
ination for governor. So persistent
ly has this talk been passed along,
since it started during the session of
the General Assembly, that the Sen
ator decided to put the yarn to rest
with a positive denial. He goes further
by “burning tiie brid.ues bL’hind him”
and declaring himself unequivocally
for the nomination of the Charlotte
man. The Senator’s po^jition is thus
outlined in a recent statement sent
out from Washington to a number of
North Carolina papers;
“From difiorent sources reports
the full responsibilities of statehood,
cheuid be given adequate guarantees
of friendly protection, guidance and
assistance.”
The necessity for the League had
become apparent as the work of the
Conference advanced day by day, the
President declared, until finally the
delegates became thoroughly convinc
ed ‘*that what they were seeking
would be little more than something
tvTltten upon paper, to be interpreted
and applied by such methods as the
chances of politics might make avail
able if they did not provide a means
of common counsel which ail were

Osborne and Band of the Brevard

kindness in giving 500 posters and
also making a great reduction in their

THEN AND NOW
LET W. S. S. BE YOUR CHAMPION
Recent events and present condi
tions in governmental affairs call to
mind some things written by John
Hay, President McKinley’s great Sec
retary of State. In his interesting
autobiography w’ill be found the fol
lowing, written on April 24, 1900, to
Richard Watson Gilder: “The fact
that a treaty gives to the country n
great lasting advantage seems to
weight nothing whatever in the minds
of about half the Senators. Per-'=onal i
interests, personal spites and a con
tingent chance of a petty poUticiil ad
vantage are the only motives that cut
any ice at present.”
Sometime later, when considering j
his retirement because of the Senate •
action, Mr. Hay wrote: “I shall be sor
ry to part with the President (Mr.
McKinley) v;ho has stood nobly by me
in everything, but there will always
be thirty-four per cent of the Senate
on the blackguard side of every ques
tion that comes before them.”

of
In buyincT Liberty Bonds, Victory
Bonds, Thrift and W’ar Savings
.'J.Lamps the people of the United
;^:tacc3 have done more than perform
a patriotic duty—they have invested
in the soundest securities in the
world, gold obligations of the Unit
ed States of America.
But the safeguarding of these se
curities has become a problem for
many folk. Only a few persons, rel-
r.tively, have either a safe in t’ne
hou33 or office, or a safe-deposit box
in the vaults of f’e bai’.’c. Fa^ v o
many patriotic citizens are koepinc;
bonds and stamps ai)out the houc-e, in
tl’.e bureau drawer, under the mat
tress, or on the shelf. And even if
the treasure is thus hidden from
thieves, there is the ever present dan
ger of fire, and the loss of the money
invested.
There may be no further call for
the people at large to subscribe to
huge bond issues, but the govern
ment needs the daily and weekly
sums which come in from the sale
of Thrift and War Savings Stamps
for taxes must be kept down. The
danger of loss has deterred some peo-
p.V' from gettii;; as many stamps! as
they might otherwise buy. Hence the
problem will be a future question as
well as a present one.
Steps have been taken, hovv'ever, to
meet this situation.
First, every bond or stamp certifi
cate may be registered with the
Trearury Department. Registration
means that the owner’s name and the
number of his security have beefi
“registered” by the government, and
that nobody but himself can pos
sibly get the money which the bond
f)r stamp certificate calls for. Cer
tificates may be registered through
the nearest postoffice; bonds through
the nearest bank.
And the second method for safe
guarding has been provided by the
banks themselves. Every bank—na
tional bank or savings bank—and ev
ery trust company has, of course,
ample and secure vaults. For the man
who does not feel that he can afford
to rent a safe deposit box to keep
Liberty Bonds and War Savings
Stamps in, rtiany of the banks and
trust companies have announced their
willingness to keep these securities
for him in their own vaults.
SUCCESSFUL DOLURS

WAR SAVINGS STAMPS
MADE HOME POSSIBLE
Man Who Suddenly Found Himself
Without Roof Over Head Was Able
to Buy Property.
This true story tells how War Sav
ings Stamps built a sure protection
around one Washington war worker
and his family.
Early in the war savings campaign
he began a small systematic invest
ment in Thrift Stamps, which ulti
mately gfev/ until he had an invest
ment of $100. He says hs acquired
his stamps without depriving him
self or family. The investment “just
grew” out of incidental savings.
Presently this incidental money
became scarce. The war worker and
his family felt the bui'den of the war-
tip;e high cost ;>f living, and rhe aj;x-
iety and expense of extraordinary ill
ness of the two children. Then an
other blow fell. He av/oke one morn
ing to find that he had no place to
live.
His residence had been sold and
he and his family were asked to va
cate. He could find no houses for
rent within his means, and v/as con
fronted with the necessity of leaving
the city or buying a home for his
family. He could not buy without
making a substantial initial pay
ment, and ready funds were seem
ingly beyond reach.
Then he thought of his War Sav
ings Stamps. He remembered they
were redeemable on ten days’ notice,
with accrued interest. With the pro
ceeds of these stamps and such small
sums as he could gather he made
first payment on a new home in the
suburbs.
Recently he refused to sell it for
$1,200 more than the purchase price.
This man is a War Savings Stamp
enthusiast—and he is on the straight
road to financial independence.

But the careless dollar goes off
