By saving food save human life.
W. S.
Do you want to save the life of the
children of Europe ? Then save food.
V .. w.!s. S.

Ifi you haven't boiight your allot
ment of War Savings Stamps, why
not.?
W. 8. S
Between a food profiteer and a Bol
sheviki there's not much room left for
choice.
w. s. s.
Don't you want our boys brought
home? If jou uo buy War Savings
Stamps to help do it.
W. S. S
President Wilson is in Europe, but
Teddy and Congress are still with us,
so there's ho reason for a dull mo
ment. W. S. S.
Bill Hohenzollern says he did not
start the war. We suppose some
German will rise up and claim there
has been no war.
w. s. s
A crowd of Luxemburg tore
down' some stores because the shop
keeper had overcharged the Ameri
cans, i fetter import a few thousand
of them to the United States.
t i jyy. s. s.--
Dicf Bill take 'the late King of
Greece with him? Seems to us that
Bill agreed to restore the throne oi
Greece to his brother-in-law. But
lost thrones are common in Europe
just now.
W. S.
State Food Administrator Page
says the food profiteers will not be al
lowed to escape punishment by Red
Cross donations in the future. Then
why not make a donation of them to
the penitentiary.
w. s. s.
It is predicted that eggs will be
selling for one dollar per dozen by
February first. Well, we don't care.
Ham has been too high for our pocket
book for many months, and what are
e?gs without ham?
W. SL
H.voull not be to North Carolina's
creiit to fall cwn or buying her
share of War Savings Stamps.
We have done so extraordinarily well
on everything else, let's not leave un
undone this one thing.
w. S. s.-
Democratic newspapers keep ham
mering at the unfitness of Postmastr
General Burleson for the position.
There are many men in the United
States who could do worse, but we
are from Missouri.
W. S. S.
Monday's dispatches tell us that our
boys have crossed the Rhine and are
on German soil. That was their in
tention when they left the United
States, and they would have been a
sadly disappointed crowd unless they
had. Hope they reach Berlin before
ordered home.
W. S. S
Both Republican and Democratis
U. S. Senators are heaving-bricks at
the President's head, because he
didn't appoint one on the peace com
mission. As much scrapping as they
have Jone in the United States Sen
ate for thepast year ..we presume the
Prsident hiwily thought that a good

into thinking that we have nothing to
