Thrift Stamps arc on saU* in every business bouse in the town ; when you make a purchase, do not forget to help the hoys "ovi r there " Buy a Thrift Stamp liet'K remember in this sugar light that tlie motto of Koch is "Attack", and the method of our boy a. "Fight as long as the lighting in good and than some more." So "Up and nt 'em!" No doubt, there are many peo ple who want to buy Thrift Stamps, and tliev can find tk-in right at the store where they purchase goods. You can buy Stamps, do it now. Turkey is starving, (jermany pinched and Austria rioting for food Th« Allies are well fed and full of fight, thanks to Uncle Sain who invited them to sit down to his table a year ago -he has been passing around the vie tuuls ever since. "The American people will gladly make any sacrifice in con* sumption and in tin production of foodstuffs that will maintain the health, comfort and the courage of the people of the Al lied countries. Wo are in fact eating at the common table with them." President's Message to thfe t oi Allied Fond Controllers n I, mdon Joe Daniels and Religion In the Elizabeth City Indepen dent of last week. Editor Saun ders. in answer to"an* inquiry as to the church relations of Secre tary of the Navy .losephus Daniels, made the statement that the Secretary was a Itaptist. Is it true that since he has had so much to do with water, oceans of it that he has left the Methodist Church of which he was for so long a most prominent" member? No doubt, the Secre tary believes in water, plenty of it, but at the present time lie is evidently opposed feocertain kind* I of The church atliliations of those in the administration of govern I nient affairs seem to he giving some people lots of coti'-ern, when j the truth is a man's religion has nothing to do with Ins oMieiency in carrying on-the work winch iias been assigned nun ♦ ■ I he Fourth Liberty Loan The campaign for the Fourth) Liberty Loan will begin Septem-! ber 2S and close ()ctol»er 1!> The j result of the loan will be watch ed with keen, interest in Europe, j not only by our associates in the ! wa r against the Teutonic powers I but by our enemies It will be j regarded by them as u measure : of the American people's support ot the war. The Germans know (full well the tremendous weight and sig nificance of the popular support of the war, or of the people at home backing up the Army in the field. As the loan succeeds our enemies will sorrow; as it falls short they will rejoice. Every dollar subscribed will help and encourage the American soldiers and hurt and depress the enemies of America The loan w'll be a test of the loyalty and willingness of the people of the United States to! make sacrifices compared with the willingness of our soldiers to do their part. There must be and will be no failure by the people to measure up to the courage and devotion lof our men in Europe Many of 'them have given up lives; shall j we at home withhold our money? 'Shall we spare our dollars while j they spare not their very lives? Market Your Tabacco j j-- The tobacco season is on; and ,it behooves every raiser of the weed to take stock of what he I has to place on the mar | ket, and carefully handle the leaf to the best ad vantage. It is I the season of high prices and the j farmer should get every cent I in his crop; he should grade and put it wn the floors himself and I receive thw checks from the | book-keepers The cost of rais ing was greatly increased this i verr. and the farmer needs every dollar in the business. There ! fore, he should, if possible, I grade and ijjarket the crop him self on the Williamston ware-, house lb>ors: this is the market for high inces, courteous treat ment and every convenience that the times demand So many farm ers have the hal it. of selling their cr |is in the rough state, there- Iby losing hundreds of dollars. The man who works all through thw months to grow the weed, then sits up night after night at the barns, should reap the full reward of his labors, and this cull only he done when he sells every pile on the warehouse floors himself. Carefnlly grade and pack your tobacco and bring it to Williamston and bank your money. German View of Christianity Fredorich Wilheim Nietchej was one of the most noted of modern (iernian philosophers. How much has his philosophy nflected the views and character of the tiermans of to-day? Is not the answer written in the blood of thw women and children, the old men of occupied France and lielgium? Are not the Lusitania victims witnesses to (lerman adoption of"Nietzche's faith? Here is his indictment of Chris tianity : "With this I conclude, and pro nounce my sentence: I condemn Christianity To ine it, is the i ; o 1 all imaginablecorrup- I lioi.s The church is the" great parasite; with its anemic idea of holiness it drains life of all its strength, its lovw, and its hope. The other world is the motive for the denial of every reality 1 call Christianity tihe one groat curse, the one great intrinsic de pravity, the one great instinct of -revenge, for which no expedient is sufficiently poisonous, secret, underhand, to gain tts ends I call it the one immortal shame and blemish upon the human race" Active Campaign Against Typhoid August is the worst month in the year for the prevalence of typhoid fever. During July there were 822 cases reported in the state If past experience is re pented August will show a total much larger, September will be only slightly better. A large number of the cases result fatally. Last year (128 peo ple ir North Carolina died from this cause alone. It is estimated | that typhoid fever entails a mon jey cost of n2,0(M1,(M)0 each year ! upon the people of the State. | The prevalence of tin- disease ! this surntnc! has been the occas i ion of grave concern to officers iof the United States Army as I well as the State authorities, and energetic steps have been deter mined upon to combat the rava j ges of the disease. Typhoid fever is the most easi ly prevented of all preventable | diseases Anti typhoid vaccina | lion gives immunity for a period of at least three years, and may be taken without inconvenience or ill effects.
