In every home, on every street, in every place of business, it is the all absorbing topic. There never has been a death in Hickory more univer sally lamented. As one has said: "Death is an end less procession moving on towards one goal from the time when man was placed upon this foot stool to carry out a divine decree; and there is no turning back from this wa, No one is rich enough to purchase life and no one so poor that he hasn't a life to lose. No one is strong enough to resist the grim reaper death and no one so weak to excite his pity." Death comes to all ages and class es alike. It is no respecter of per sons. It fomes to the babe with nothing to offer in return but a smile. It comes to the aged with nothing to offer but a last weak quiver and all is over. It comes to a mother with only a child at her breast pleading for mercy, but all in vain. It comes to man in full strength of lMe bearing a double burden, dividing his work between the home and the state; and he too un der this load often staggers and falls, leaving as it were an unfinish ed work f$ be divided out among his friends, his loved ones. jSuch is the death of Henry Aik en. Henry, we all will miss you. Hickory has grown up with you. You were playmates together. At all times, day or night, you were at her assistance, willing to pour out your love, your means, year even your life's blood in her defense. As one who knew you, Henry, let us say that we love you, because you were ever our friend, our neighbor. Like all of us, God's creatures, you had the weakness of the flesh, Henry, but thank God you also had the di vine strength which won the victory in every battle, and kept you in daily touch with suffering humanity, and thereby with God. Peace be to your ashes. J. F. CLICK. NOTICE TO POSTOFFICE PATRONS On account of the funeral of Hon. J. H.

The national service department which has- un dertaken to place everybody in a po sition to nelp win the war has or ganized volunteer work for the sum mer vacation season. Throughout the war thousands of people the boys of the public schools, for instance have given up their holidays to some kind of war work, but ntral guidance has been wanting except in the case of agricul ture. Committees are being set up all over the country, and a varied list of important side activities of the war in want of helpers is being made, so that when volunteers are appeal ed for they can be" drafted at once to vacation tasks, such as the collec tion of waste-paper, which is wanted for shell-making, wool gathering in the hedges (wool from sheep), and a score more ways of satisfying the conscience of men and women who are doing nothing for the war.

War having ceased to be a matter of government and armies, and be come one for whole peoples, the United States found itself faced, when the war broke out, with the im perative necessity of bringing to gether its vast resources for the pre servation of the liberty of the world. America was willing; tremendous supplies in men, money and materials were not wanting. lo secure the coupling of willingness and ability was the gigantic task which presented itself to the American nation. The ordinary machinery of gov ernment, excellent though it be for times of peace, did not contain pro vision for any such assembling of powers. Something outside the pre scribed forms had to be called into being to furnish the channels through which American skill and bravery a Sanaa: Now shipment of the celebrated "Wirthmor" Waists $1.00 New shipment of the celebrated "Welhvorth" waists $1.00 New shipment of the Lonsdale M'iddys, worth $1.50 for $1.00 Low shoes for summer wear $2.50 to $5.00.

To meet this demand, when the war with Germany seemed a matter of weeks, the council of national defense was formed, and with it advisory committees composed of skilled men in every department of endeavor which could prove of assistance in the titanic task of winning the war. To most people, perhaps, it was only another committee or another of Geothals' boards f'long, narrow and wooden." To these the achieve ments of the council must sound like and patriotism could be made effec- a veritable fairy tale. Out of the inchoate mass of Amer ican industry and natural wealth the council of defense, through its va rious advisory boards, has welded at least the beginning of a gigantic or ganization for war That its work will be continued, with ever increas ing support and confidence from the people at 'lirge, is a foregone con clusion. That it will also meet willi opposition from some politicians in congress, from some grafters outside of it, from some very small minded folks in and out, is also inconte-tibie.
