A FLAG POLE
Old Glory, patriotically donated last
spring by one of Warren's daughters,
has become tattered and torn nil be
cause it has been impossible to raise
and lower it from the Court House
Flag pole unless a ladder was procur
red; and it thus has been left out in
the weather night and day.
The flag donated would have lasted
for years with proper care, but with
conditions as they are every flag plac
ed on the Court House will go o
pieces in a short while.
It seams to us that a flag pole
could be very approprately erected on
the riht of the Court Square.
This would permit the raising of the
flag each morning and its lowering
each afternoon; it would also be mor'j
easily seen from all sections of thi
town. This flag pole mounted in a
cement base, would cost little, and it3
value at this time cannot be measured
in terms of cost of erection.
TRY YOUR HAND
Mr. J. B. Ivey, of Charlotte, Mer
chant Representative of U. S. Food
Administration, is offering a Fifty
dollar Liberty Bond prize for the best
article on Food Conservation.
We urge that Warren boys and girls
enter this contest. The question
of Conservation will be ever-present
until years after the end of the war,
and it is hoped that it is one of the
lessons America will learn for all time.
One new idea may come from yoa,
another from another source and a3
their wisdom is seen will be adopted
into a great organization.
We urge that school teachers let
Conservation be the subject for com
position work; and to also urge that
their pupils compete for this prize.
Certain it is that nothing is of more
value in composition work than con
tinued writing. Thi3 question is of
live interest and the Liberty Bond is
on incentive to a greater effort.
WAR Y. M. C. A.
We re;oice that Warren people gave
as they did in the War Y. M. C. A.
campaign fund of last week. It is
source of pleasure and of common re
joicing whenever a desired result, em
bodying such a philanthropic purpose,
is accomplished.
The fund was overscribd by over
two hundred dollars; and its oversub
scription reflects credit upon Warren.
The work is of utmost moment, and
every donor of time and money can
net help but feel pleasure by having
a hand, an interest, some stock, in the
War Y. M. C. A.

PAYMENT BY CHECK is simply a precaution by
which you INSURE yourself against loss of money,
inconvenience in making change, and the possibil
ity of being short-changed or receiving counterfeit
money,.
You are also absolutely protected against a
second presentation of the same bill, for the can
celed check, bearing the creditor's signature and
always available at the bank, constitues the very
best kind of a receipt, and there is no danger of its
being lost,. 1
These facts appeal to intelligent people.
