SUBSCRIPTIONS TO FOURTH
LOAN ARE COMING.
Is Proving More Popular Than Either
of the Other Three Loans. No Fig
ures Available. Encouraging Re
ports Are Coming from All Sections
of the Country.
Washington, Oct. 1.—Subscriptions
to tht fourth Liberty Loan have been
been more numerous and larger than
at ■ this stage of any previous loan
campaign. This was indicated today
in telegrams received from all sec
tions of the county. Actual totals in
the campaign to raise $6,000,000,000
in three weeks were not available, but
treasury officials believed that a re
port could be obtained from every
district by tomorrow night.
“From the reports now at hand ”
said a statement issued at loan head,
quarters tonight, “it can safely be as
serted that sales are moving much
faster in the early days of this cam
paign than they did during the third
liberty loan drive.
The twenty-four war exhibit trains
moving through the country are given
much of the credit for the enthusiasm
of first days. Thousands of people
daily are passing through these trains,
reports said, and staying after the
trains have gone to hear speeches and
enter their subscriptions. From many
districts today came reports that the
throngs were so great they could not
pass through the cars during the stay
of the trains.
In the New York district more than
$2,000,000 worth of bonds were sold
from the two trains yesterday.
Thirty-two communities in the
Cleveland district already have over
subscribed their quotas and more tha^i
$10,000,000 subscriptions have been
officially reported to Washington.
Subscriptions in New England for
the first two days were $67,000,000, of
which $45,000,000 came from Massa
chusetts.
The Pacific coast had sold $50,000,000
of bonds at the close of business last
night reports from San Francisco
said. Subscriptions from Hawaii on
the opening day were $3,461,000.
From Dallas tonight came this
word, “Depression due to bad business
conditions is giving way before a tidal
wave of patriotism, and drought
stricken districts are sending in very
encouraging reports.”
The Richmond and Atlanta districts
report more subscriptions than could
be tabulated. Negroes throughout the
South are reported to be subscribing
generously.
Admiral Cowie, in charge of the na
vy’s campaign, said tonight that an
proximately $3,500,000 had been sub
scribed by officers and men already.
One battleship in European waters has
furnished $113,000 in subscriptions
and another $401,000, Admiral Sims
cabled.

RAILWAY WORKERS RAISE FLAG
Items of Interest and Happenings
Around Selma.
Selma, N. C., Oct. 3.—The Liberty
Loan drive is making some headway
in and around Selma. The commit
tee of ladies who are presenting the
issue to the people are working faith
fully ,and they do not expect to give
up until the full quota is sold.
Last Friday at six o’clock in the af
ternoon the working men of the
Southern yard in Selma showed them
selves patriotic when a flag was rais
ed as an expression of their patriot
ism. Supt. E. H. Moser made a short
talk on the Pprt the Working Man is
Taking in This War. His talk struck
a popuar chord and aroused a feeling
of good will in the hearts of all who
heard him. The flag was raised bv
Julia Ashworth and Mabel Wilkinson,
both daughters of railroad men, and
two of the finest girls in Selma.
Last Saturday was Rally Day at the
Selma Mill Sunday-school. This is
one of the livest Sunday-schools in
the county. It has raised nearly a
hundred dollars this summer for the
relief of the Armenian children. How
many Sunday-schools in the county
have done better?
Rev. R. R. Lanier has returned home
after a stay out in the country con
ducting protracted meetings. Mrs.
Lanier's sister, Miss Stephens, has en
tered school at Selma.
Rev. C. K. Proctor is in Dunn this
week conducting a revival meeting at
the Dunn Methodist church.
Miss Ruth White, a friend of Miss
Virginia RodwelTs, spent Friday night
with Miss Rodwell in Selma.
The Selma graded school seems to
be a good clearing house for teachers
who desire clerical positions at fancy
prices. A few weeks ago Miss Har
low accepted a position at Washing
ton, D. C., at a fabulous price when
compared to a teacher’s salary. Now
Miss Alma Lee Currin is offered a po
sition in a bank in her home town at
a salary more than double what she
gets here. What can the school do?
Let her go, of course. And work as
the trustees are doing to get North
Carolina to see that if she expects to
keep her schools going at a respecta
ble pace she must place the salary of
a teacher on a living wage scale.
Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Moser spent
Saturday and Sunday with Mr. Mo
ser’s parents in Surry county. Mrs.
Moser and the children are spending
the week in Surry with her father.
Eula May Edgerton spent Tuesday
in Raleigh and Zilphia Fulghum spent
the same day in Goldsboro. Shopping
was the object of these young ladies’
visits to our neighboring towns.
Selma still gets a view occasionally
of her sanitary conditions. Regard
less of these reviews Selma is put
down by the State Health Department
as one of the healthiest towns in the
State. She is as free from contagious
diseases, and has the lowest death rate
of any town in the State. But there
is one spot in Selma that looks decent
and that is the school.
Our school has borne critical in
spection from cellar to garret, and
passed muster. The next time you are
in Selma go to the school building and
ask the superintendent to take you
around. You will see that the place
where Selma is making her future cit
izens is decent and kept clean. We
have other redeeming features that
you will hea rabout later on.
The writer spent the last wek-end
in a hill country thirty miles above
Winston-Salem. He found the finest
kind of patriotism in the township
(not a town) where he visited. Prac
tically every boy owns thrift and War
Savings stamps. That little township
with not a sign of a town anywhere
near has long since over subscribed
her quota of War Savings Stamps. It
is thrilling to see these country people
so wide awake to the war situation.
Their boys are gone to war, to be
sure. The folks back home are buy
ing stamps to feed, clothe, and pay
them. The home fires are burning in
Shoals Township, Surry county. The
reason, I think, is that the people can
ne gotten together. They will go to
i public place and then respond to the
.alls of the nation. If we could get
>ur people to come together at pub
lic meetings we could get our allot
ments of Liberty Bonds, W. S. S. and
Red Cross funds raised more easily.
These people that I have just told you
ibout are country people. They have
10 town to depend upon to do their
part. So every family has tried to
bake its share of the burden. Can not
ive wake up to the fact that every
Family should take a share in the bur
ien of war that is now on us ?

ilETTER SHOES TO COST LESS
Maximum and Minimum Retail Prices
to lie Fixed. War Industries Hoard
and the Shoe Industry Enter Into
Agreement.
American people will soon be able
to purchase shoes at fixed minimum
and maximum retail prices, lower
than those now prevailing and obtain
at the same time shoes of better qual
ity. This announcement was made
today by the War Industries Board
based on an agrement entered into
with the shoe industry.
Under the agreement shoes will be
standardized as to quality and styles
at prices ranging from $3 to $12 for
men and women groups as folows:
Class A, from $9 to 012; Class B G$ to
$8.50, and Class C, $3 to $5.50; pro
portionate prices for youths’ and
children’s shoes have been fixed in
each of the three classes.
The board will check up on the
quality of the shoes sold at each price
by means of a class number stamped
on it. Policing, officials explained,
will be done by the various State
councils of defense', and where the
public is in doubt as to what quality
it is getting according to the price
schedule, complaint may be made and
the cost of manufacture traced.
While it is possible to purchase a
shoe for $3 now, under the new sched
ule, the shoe at that price will be of
higher grade.
Officials also said that it will be
possible to buy better quality shoes
throughout the three classes at less
money than at present. Shoes now re
tailing for as high as $20, they said,
will retail for the maximum price of
$12 and be of at least equal quality.
Manufacturers, jobbers and retail
ers subscribed to the agreement and
retailers will be required to sign a
pledge containing the new price
scale and display it in their shops.
Failure to do so will mean the cut
ting off of supplies. The manufac
turers’ pledge provides for standards
of quality at the quoted prices.- —

GOOD WOMAN PASSES AWAY.
Death of Mrs. Ernest T. Mangum
(Nee Miss Floy C. Johnson.)
Benson, N. C., Sept. 30.—'The sad
intelligence announcing the death of
Mrs. Mangum, daughter of Mr. Esrom
Johnson, and Columbia Ann Johnson,
was received by the family Friday at
12:30 p. m. .
Her untimely death came as a shock
to her friends and loved ones. She
died at G o’clock Friday morning, at
her home in Union, Kentucky. She
was married to Rev. Ernest T Man
gum July 10, 1918, making only two
months and seventeen days of young
married life. Floy was 28 years of
age, was a faithful and consistent
member of the Misisonary Baptist
church, at Four Oaks, N. C.
A young woman of rare ability,
One Christian character and a lovely
disposition that endeared her to those
that came in touch with her.
She was sick only three weeks and
all that a true and loving husband,
klnd f,riends> Ph.vsicians and nurse
could do for her could not restore to
her the life we all loved so dearly.
When we think of Floy as gone
from us from the stage of action, from
her usefulness—we wonder within
ourselves, O, why should she be tak
en, when it seems to us that her life
work had reached the time and place
that she had planned for so many
years, just when she was so happy in
her new life.
Floy was striving to accomplish
greater things for her Heavenly Fath
er’ t0, c[)mPIet* her preparation in
school that she might be prepared to
do the greatest work possible to help
her fellow man to live for God, but
God saw best to take this sweet, un
selfish spirit unto Himself.
We cannot understand. This we
know “that God doeth all things well
for those that love and obey Him.”
Her greatest pleasure in life was
doing her duty and duty was a su
preme pleasure—her first duty was
to her God. We shall miss this sweet
girl her Christian influence was a
perfume of the rarest, shedding its
fragrance .
Those that knew her best loved her
most; her beautiful, unselfish life
should be an inspiration for us that
ere left behind. May the bereaved
ones only think of her as living the
™ , * ami (h;,t some day. we too,
shall be called and when the summons
comes to us, we can say as this sweet
life, ‘I surrender all to Thee.”
The casket, accompanied by her
husband, his brother an dsister, reach
, ^elma Sunday afternoon at 12-30
0 clock and was taken to her old home
in the country near Smithfield. Her
funeral was conducted out doors un
der the shade of the big oak trees.
Ihe day was a lovely, unclouded one.
1 he shadows, as they flitted, the birds
as they sang, seemed to say she is
gone. All nature seemed to be clothed
>n solemnity; the quietude of the oc
casion, the peace that reigned about
us bespoke her beautiful life. The
husband, father, brothers and sister
now in humble submission to our
Heavenly Father, may God comfort
.he hearts of her dear husband, aged
lather, brothers and sisters.
Her brother, Paul E. Johnson, re
sides with his father, Walton and Roy
Johnson are somewhere in France.
Her half brothers, John W. and David
H. Sanders, of F our Oaks, and sister
Mrs. E. F. Moore, Benson.
The funeral services were beauti
lully and impressively conducted by
Rev. A. T. Lassiter, assited by Re''.
G. W. Rollins, Benson, and Rev. S. A
Cotton, of Smithfield. The pall bear
ers were Dr. Utley, Dr. Stanly, Mr. R.
C. Cannaday, Mr. Will Barber, Mr.
Jones, Mr. J. C. Lassiter, and others.
The following Scripture lessons wei
read: Rev. 21:1-7; Psams 90:1-12; E<
elesiastes 12th chapter. Remarks wei
made based on the two passages <
Scripture Rev. 14:13, “Blessed are tl
dead which die in the Lord,” and Job
14:2: “In my Father’s house are mar
mansions.”
The choir sang softly and tenderl
“Nearer my God to Thee,” and “Sha
We Gather at the River.” Her r<
mains were laid to rest beside her d<
voted mother, who preceded her i.
the grave eight years. The floral oi
ferings were many and beautiful,
large crowd of friends and relativ:
were present to pay their last tribui
of love and esteem to our departe
loved one.
