llae prMtioe of flour conservation In North Carolina has been so general, and
saving so great, thai a large number of the small mills which here here*
tafore been able only to supply the Immediate communities have accumulated
oomaiderabia quantities of flour which Is available for shipping to ol
It le the parpose of Mr. to 1q
xedflour from the larger mills
de the State, which, almost without exception, ara In position to pack
#bur lor eaport aad supply the demands of the Army and Navy and our AlUes
The Food Administration will asslet in bringing together those mills
wfeich have flour for sale and the dealers In other sections of the State who
4ealre to purchase it. Mr. Page's statement inaaguratlng the new plaa
la as follows: '
"Baaed on the total supply In the United States for home consumption,
and ooaeldertng the decreased consumption by oar people, there is within
the borders of North Carolina oar share and more of flour. This being trne, 1
ata calling on the Wholesale and retail merchants of North Carolina to refrain
trocn saadlng further ordera for floar to mis outside of North Carolina. The
larger mills which have beea accustomed to ship tremendous quantities of
Soar into North Carolina are most of them close to export points and all of
Ifcem are In position to pack flour for export. Where merchants in some
WM% of North Carolina could secure flour from outside mills cheaper than
?hay ean from North Carol in a mllla wbfteh kare flour available, 1 am going to
?ak them to take the home flour even at a higher price. t
"I do not pretend to say that there it sufficient flour In North Carolina to
?applet anything like the normal demand. What I do mean to say is that if
we axw to supply oar AlBaa with the Quantity they must have, we haye as
?uch flour in North Carolina aa we are entitled to and aa much la proportion
m the people of any other State or section?and we have no right to mor*"
Mr. Page's request to flour dealers to refrain from purchasing flour out
?14? the State is not an order but it la very clearly indloated in tke office of

Standing Buck of the Government.
Next to dishonor, war is the greatest
calamity that can befall a nation.. .We
are now beginning to realize how far
reaching its effects are. It is not too
much to affirm that the war affects to
some degree the condition of life for
every man. woman and child in the
country. From the loss of life itself
the sacrifice runs all the way down the
scale to a slight deprivation of com
fort or luxury.
But for every widespread disaster
there is usually a small modicum of
good to place in the other side of the
balance. It may not apparently make
a hair's weight of difference against
the 111, but it 13 there and perceptible
if we look for it. What have we of
good to set against the evils of war?
Our answer would be, Greater na
tional unity. A year ago we were for
the most part a country of individuals,
individual communities, individual sta
tes. Men were pursuing their own ob
jects, communities were not looking
beyond their own improvements, stat
es were caring for their own people.
Now all horizons are broadened.
When a man sees his son or his neigh
bor's son going forth to war, his
thought involuntarily goes out to the
'environment of that boy, the condi
tions he will meet, and the govern
ment which provides or regulates them
He realizes that the government will
have to provide these boys with the
simple necessities, food, clothing and
shelter. It will also have to provide
them with training, transportation,
tweapons. artillery and aircraft for
their protection, medical services and
hospitals for their care, and a hun
dred other essentials. And the man
also begins to realize that It is up to
him in his individual capacity to stand
back of the government, to take his
part in providing these absolutely nec
essary things in his own rightful pro
portion, either from his abundance or
from his bare oufficlency.^
And we need only to see the banners
of the Third Liberty Loan in the win
dows of homes throughout the land to
understand how magnificently the in
dividuals have risen to their duty and
of the poor alike the banners signal
proudly: "I have given as I can to the
'call of the nation. It is my nation and
I am witit it heart and soul In the hour
of its need."
I We cannot estimate the aggregate
1 sacrificcs wklcfr this splendid showing
has required. In many cases it meant
the giving *up of comforts, perhaps of
cherished plans. But each man who
has subcribed for his bond or bonds
I feels that he is a component part of
| his country, that he stands or falls
with it, and that it is a country worthy
of his racrifice. He is in harmony of
I feeling with his neighbor. hi3 commun
ity, his state and his nation.
An Old Tratil Revived.
K very day now the line is being I
mero sharply drawn between the real
self-sacrificing patriot, and the profi
teer hiding under a clock of blatant
loyalty.
Nineteen hundred years ago t!.e
Mar. of (iallilee quietly remarked to
a company of friends and followers
that "It Is more bleered to givo than
to receive." At the tir.:e It made lit
tle. impression upon his .heanra, and
in the centuries since tiiat day men
have grasped it merely an a theoreti
cal truth, v.ith no real thought of
making It a life principle.
L5ut the present v.crld cat a.! asm ha:*
put people to thinking seriously of
thir statement of the great Teacher.
People v/lth-no claims to religious
convictions are waking up to the fact
that underlying the Ltatement is found
the true secret of life. We are coin
ing to see more clearly every day that
the selfish life Is the miserable lifo.
stunting and dwarfing all the finer
qualities of our nature that have ele
vated us as a race so Immeasurably
above the human brutes with whom
v.'e now do battle.
When the final history of this war
is written, those whose names will go
down at the head of the honoi list
wiP not be the profiteers who grasped
millions from a suffering world; but
thofC who gave, and gave, and gave,
till they could give no more?who
stripped themselves of earthly pos
sets-Jons to gain a crown tha: all earth
mr*. *'ell can never deprive them of?
The proud consciousness that they
have "done what t hoy could" for hu
manity and the right.
No Worms in a Healthy Child
All children troubled with *form? have an un
healthy color, which Indicate? poor blood, and as a
rale, there la more or lew stomach disturbance.
GROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC given regularly
for two or three week* will enrich the blood, fm

throw ?.ff or dispel th^worms. and the Child will b?
