' WOMEN TRIUMPHANT, i The woman barber is on deck, today she dyed my sideboards blue, and brushed some talcum on my neck, as ?rtell as any man could do. Her lily fingers held my nose, she lathered me With queenly igralcie, and tinted up the brush that growa-around the borders tof my face. Today I (book a jitney tide; a. women driver held the wheel; 'she was as blooming as a bride and full of business as an eel. And when t offered her in pay a bogus seven collar bill, she threw me o'er a stack of hay with most surprising strength $md skill. I went to shock some sheaves of wheat, that all the nations may be free ; and, as I toiled on weary Jfeet, a husky dame worked ne,xt to me. jAs counsel for the James Pritchard ?Hose, in court I did my very best; a woman lawyer then arose, and knock ed my logic galley west. While I was Ifighting with my wife I fell down stairs and broke a thew; a woman Iserrreon brought a knife, and fixed me up as good as new. The men have IJjbne'to whip the Hun; their wives and fdaughtrs stay behind, to see that every duty's done, to carry on the ceaseless erind. Todav I thought. fwSth whoop and song, I'd celebrate a iHun defeat: a woman neeler came along, and pinched me, on Commercial j street. A woman jailer saw me kneel contritely on the prison stones; a wo pan cadi herd my spiel, and put me down for fifteen bones. - i W S S ON WITH THE WAR WITHOUT LET OR HINDRANCE. Let no American for one moment forget tihlat this war is not won, nor likely, any ways near won. Let every American remember that dt must be pushed wirtih. all the vigor of the combined allied nations, to the end that the enemy may be whipped and whipped once and for all (time, so thait never again can he de termine on the destruction of civilis i ation. It would be crimianl folly of the very worst sort to pause, to ihiesitiate, to delay for one moment now. The Huns are inert whipped nor near whip ped. Four yeaTS ago they were driven back from before Paris. Four years ago there iwas a battle of the Marne, and many optimistic ones thought that the war was at legist partially woe.' Since then the enemy has gone from one victory to another, eliminating op ponent after opponent and baking a terrible toll at the expense of break downs of nations. . America rraust become stronger and stronger. Her power must be felt by the beasts of Berlin and her power imtst deal m'ore powerful blows as the days pbss. If we will that this war end in dtefeat for Germany and her dastardly vassals Germany will suf fer a crushiing aind humiliating defeat. If we stqp now, God in Heaven only Idnows what will be the ultimate out come of this sitruggle. We must not stop, we will not step, let no man think it mii-cft less openly suggest it. A few reversals will not mean a whipped Germany. The Imperial rul ers of Germany will have to be smashed with a deldsive military vic tory till they are unable to further re sist the allied armies. To this end America must sternly set Iher face, almd to this end every American worth the name must clinch his teeth and fighting fists. Unless this is our an swer to this allied victory the war will drag on and on fear years and end in disaster for us as well as the re mainder of the world. If we rally stronger and stronger' after each suc cessful effort the end will come the sotoner, and the end will be marked by complete victory, and taott by a sham of a peace Which Would leave the Germany of today making ready for another outbreak. The war must be pushed with all the energy the American people are Capable of, putting forrtTrs. Flushed with a (victory north of the Marne this nation must prepare for more active platrt in the tfjgfolt, for a. more telling force in France, for the ending of the war and the bringing to earth of a real victory. In his Baltomore speedh in April I resident Wilson said: "Germany has once more said that Force, and force alone, shall decide whether Justice and Peace shall reign in the affairs of men, (whether Right l&is America conceives it or Dominion las she ' idonceives it shall , determine th destimes ,iof mankind. .

W S S ROWAN COUNTY'S RECORD AT STAKE. Rowan county's record is again at stake. Next week beginning Monday, August oth, and continuing through Saturday Augoast 10th, the ipeople of this county will again ibe given an op portunity to slay to the Government whether or not they cam be counted on to help win the war, particularly through the War Savings Campaign. This is the second time .tlhtat the Gov ernment has asked this county to de clare itself in regard to this work, to sav iwhptr or not it would Dleidee irtsplf to raise its auota of War Sav- i .St tfrrrW the vear. It ask- ed that this be done toy subscribing its entire quota in pledges, which was the iptrrpose of the War Savings drive of the week of June 23-28. As a result of .the first War Sav ings drive this county pledged only 64 per cent of its quota. This means that 36 per cent is yet to Ibe pledged. Tihiis is the task of next week. The county's entire quota of War Savings Starnps amounts to $825,460, or an average of $20 for every individual fn the county. Knowing as we do the size of the task 'that is before us next week, our , first duty is to set ourselves about to do it. Nothing should come before tfais call of the Government. Our pri vate and personal interests can be and should be set aside until we have re deemed our county from the unfavor able iposition it now holds in this work, aind placed it on record as 100 per cent patriotic. This will call for time, service and perhaps a little sacrifice on -the ipart of our citizens, but we will be a poor lot if we are not able to mpiVte at this period of our countryfs struggle whatever sacrifice and ser vice is necessary to save her rigihiteoius cause. ; We believe that this county's rec ord as a result of next week's War Savings drve will mme clear and clean. We believe that by Saturday night, August 10, Rowan county can i boast with pride that her people are jlOO iper cent patriotic, that they are i in to help wi(ni the war, and that their answer to their Government is that j they can, be counted1 on always to do their part in defending the flag and ifigthting for freedom and justice.

With Noted Guests of Latin America, Inspects Worldl Greatest Plant. By JUDSON C. WELLTVER. (Staff Correspondent of The Globe) (Copyright, 1918, by N. Y. Globe.) Washington, July 29. Chairman Hurley of the Shipping Board is giv ing a party today whose interna tional significance might possibly es cape observation. At 9 o'clock this morning as guests of Mr. Hurley, the shipping board emineces left for Philadelphia, with the diplomatic representatives of Latin-America as their guests. They were en route to Hog Island, to see the Worlds greatest shipbuilding. plant in operation. The aiplomatic guests included Ambassador Katgaima of Brazil, Ambassador Naon of Ar gentina, Ambassador Banillas of Mex ico, Senior Varola, charge d'affaires of Chili, Minister Calderdn of Bolivia, Minister Mendez of Guatemala, Min ister of Guatemala on special mis sion, Minister Menos of Haiti, Minis ter Caspedes of Cuba, Minister Do menici of Venezuelt, the charge d'affaires of Salvador, Senor Dr. Don Antonio Reyes Guerra, secretary of legation and charge d'affaires ad in terim; charge d'affaires of Panama, Sertor Don J. E. Lefevre, secretary of legation and charge d'affaires, Minis ter Elizalde of Ecuador, Minister Ureuata of Columbia, Minister San tandar of Peru, Minister Gutierezz of Honduras, Minister Galvan Of the Dominican republic, Senor D.'E. Pena, marge d'affairs of Urguay, and Senor Ramon Enrique, charge d'affairs of Nicaragua. . In addition to the members of the diplomatic corps the guests are Ed ward N. Hurley, ichariman of the Shipping Board; Charles M. Schwab, director general of the Emergency Corporation; Bernard . N. .'i.Btirftj. chairman of the War Inetyfirier. Board; Benedict Crowell, Assistant secretary of war; L. S. Rowe, assist ant secretary of the treasurer; John Barrett, director Pan-American Un "on; Franklin P. Adams, Pan-American Union, and Joseph P. Tumulty, secretary to the. President. Opportune Occasion. Opportunity will be afforded for the distinguished guests to see exactly what the United States is doing by way of fighting Germany's bid for control of the seas. The occasion is a peculiarly opportune one, because of the statement which the British Admiralty issued yesterday, showing .lecreased submarine losses for June and the quarter onded with June. The British Admiralty has been conceded the right to serve as chief statistican of the submarine warfare, which has been chiefly within its par ticular jurisdicton. lhr last month and a quarter have brought especially significant testimonies to the submarines' fail ure, which have made a deep interna tional impression. The form in which the statement of yesterday was issued from Lohdcn makes it the most un aerstanaaoie ana pointed summary since unrestricted submarining be gan. There is no missing the signifi cance of the statement that June saw less tonnage lost to British, allies, and neutrals by enemy action and marine risks than any month since Septem ber, 1916 This puts the matter in a form that makes equivocation impossible. The weekly statements that the British Admiralty used for about a year never conveyed so accurate an understand ing. It pretended to be no more tnap a statement of "British merchant shipping lost by mine or submarine." It did not include neutral or other bel ligcrehts; nor did it inculde anything except mine and submarine losses. Greater Confidence. "Ehemy acton and marine risk" in cludes several methods of loss that were not within the former statement The old form of statment was aften misleading, because in some weeks neutrals or other belligerents than the British sustained very heavy loss es in proportion to the British. The mere fact that the Admiraltv now in eludes a gre-vter measure of frankness confidence unrestricted submarihihg began February 1, 1917. Before that time Germany pretended to operate under . . . the restrictions regarding unarmed and neutral vessels. Yet it is now showh that, with all shipping as avail able -targets, sinkings are less than they were in October, November. De cember, or January, 1916, or January, 1917. Not only this, but it is also shown that unrestricted submarining got a smaller bag in the second quarter of this year than restricted sinking got in the last quarter of 1916 A Hun answer might be that fewer ship we::? sunk because there were iewer to be found and sunk, but the British statement rujles that oi4 with the observation that "the total sailings for the quarter ended June 30 were mudh (higlhter than the sail ing of; the two. preseding quarters.; i jH5 kbt5paHson. In June 1917; the' submarines got 532,295 tons of English shipping, it) June, 1918 only 161,002. In some ways this is the most striking com parison possible because for a year there has beeii strong belief that the submarines were making a dead set against British shipping, wishing to injure their great maritime rival as HOG ISLAND much as possible in the hope of get ting more nearly an even start in the after-war race. The figures now'show that a certain .measure of success has been achieved, for the British, pro ducing new tonnage at a rate some what oyer 2,000,000 tons a year, are ! still failing to make good their losses. The world, as a whole, thanks tothe great American effort is producing more tons than it is losing, but Britain is suffering a net loss, while America j has a big net gain The London Times naval corres pondent, commenting on these figures, refers to "the diminishing rate of j is carried out for a year the health sweater are not !to perform the rtat production in British yards." This j of the average man and woman com- ural fundtJon of a sweater, to ikieep is an authoritative admission that the combing out of British manpower for troubles has affected unfavorably the rate of British production, which it Was hoped would decisively increase this season. The Times expert re gards the situation as ominous, but he means it is ominous of & decline in British maritime pre-eminertce, not ominous of possible success in the submarine warfare. The Latin-American diplomats in clude a huniber of gentlemen Who a'rd sharps in shipping mutters, particu larly M. Naon of Argentina. They represent countries in which there its still interned a total of rather ovel 100,000 tons of the centeral empire'! shipping. Negotiations for Release. There have been negotiations for many months in the effort to secure the release of these ships on some basis that would add them to the working marine establishment, of the World. They would be a great- acces sion to the allies' forces if they could be put at work, but the diplomatic corps Will be shown today Why they are not necessary in beating the sub marine. Hog Islapd is only the biggest of 126 shipyads the country is operat ing. The national programme will De operating at full speed by the late au tumn, and it contemplates using 80f ways, each to produce an average of three ships annually, total 2,400 ships of .13,644,000 tons.. To put it another way this American programme looka to building in a year more than one- fourth the tonnage of the whole world's merchant marine. Add the tonnage England and the other countries can build, and it will be seen that the anti-Hun world is organizing to build ships fast enough to repro duce, in three years -the entire ton nage the world possessed when Wal started. Hog Islahd is the place that most impresses the spectator with assur ance that the Hun cannot win at sea. The visit of the diplomats is a step toward some of that practical prop'a ganada in which the Germans have been fertile and the entente, especial ly America, rather reticent. When I" was in Europe hardly a week passed 'without expeditions ol this kind to show the, country's mag nificent industrial organization fot war production. The diplomats and the correspondents of foreign new papers, belligerent and neutral alike, were constantly being impressed in this fashion. That it was exceeding ly useful to the entente cause, that it produced the most concerte and specific results cannot be doubted. America has today an immense show of this same sort to put on, and it will be a matter of congratulation of the excursion to Hog Island proves to be the inauguration of a policy of intelligent propaganda by object les- sons. wss FUNERAL OF MR.

Will Johnson, Colored, Mnst Serve Original term, and Sixty Days Ad ditional or Pay a Total of $150. In the county' court this morning Will Johnson, colored, who escaped from the Rowah chain gang more than a year ago and was apprehended this week at Hopewell, Va., was given a hearing on a charge of escape. The records showed that Johnson made his escape after serving only four days of a four months sentence imposed for having too much beer on hand. In that case a fine of $50 and costs was imposed but he was unable to pay Ihe fine and went to the roads for a term of four months. In the case of escape an additional sentence of sixty days was imposed. However, it was stipulated that if he pa $75 to cover the cost of reward and bringing him back from Hopewell this sentence would be remitted. Also that if he pay $75 to cover the costs and fine in the former beer case this sentence would be remitted. He said he thought he would be able to raise this $150 and was given until Saturday to do so before being taken out to the chain gang calmp. Two omen, one white and the other colored, were adjudged guilty of an affray and were taxed 5 and half the costs each.

In Mother's Magazine for August, Dr. Goudiss pays a remarkable trib ute to gelatine. He states that the nse Ox gelatine in American homes his almost doubled in a year, a.m is now a mil lion pounds a month. A million pounds of gelatine makes about 200 imiilion ' servings. Used as dessert it requires little su gar. Each million pounds of gelatine, used to displace other sorts of des serts, will save about ten million pounds of sugar and two and one-half million" pounds of flour. To sWeeten fresh fruit or to make preserved fruit requires from three to four times las mujdh sugar as to make an equal quantity of gelatine dessert. Other forms of desserts re quite both sugar and flour. But gelatine is also a great saver of left-overs. It (makes cakes and fresh vegetables of all kinds into ap petizing salads. It makes meat scraps into jellied meat loaves which everybody likes. All things consider ed,, gelatine must be regarded as our greatest food conserver. A leading gelatine expert now sup plies this -product ready-prepared in a most delightful form. The new type is called Jiffy-Jell. It comes ready sweetened, so one adds only boiling water to it. The unique feature lies in the fla vors. They are made from fresh, ripe fruit, then highly concentrated, thmi' seikled iiniglass fyialsr a bottle in each' package, The7result is des serts with a wealth of fruit flavor, made quickly and at a trifling cost. There am also lime-fruit and mint flavors for salads and meat loaves. . WSS r What is called temptation is 'only inclination's opportunity Albany Journal. ' '
