News and Observer. Wo are knee deep in war right now. - We are making every effort to con servo our resources so as to. make them count, for most in war. We are trying to shape the work of the nation to fit war conditions. We are trying to center everything on winning the war in the shortest possible time. In the midst of this there are cer tain Interests that cannot seem to remember we are at war. They see a good chance to piie up profits for themeslves at the expense oi tho nation. They are willing to block the war progress, willing to tangle up tne war machinery, if only they can make something by doing bo. Grain speculators are in this class. Food speculators are in this class. Coal magnates who juggle the market or restrict production are ir this class. Distillers who seek to pour the grain supply into their vats are in this class. Railroad magnates who try to balk plans for railroad effectiveness for war aro in this class. And along with these-are ?. lot of smaller fish who. though less power ful, lack none of tho intent to profit at the expense of the nation's need. Perhaps they don"t think this prof iteering is anti-patriotic, but it is. Aniericp. must crush this profiteer ing. America must stop thi:; stab bing from within. And no man who calls himself an American should . bo guilty or that kind of conduct. An American theso days is a man who puts America's interests ahead of everything. And nobody else is an American. CLIP THIS AXI) PIN OX WIFE'S DRKSSKK Cincinnati Man Tells How to Shrivel Up Corns or Calluses so They Lift Off With Fingers. Ouch !?!?!! This kind of rough talk will be beard less here in town if people troubled with corns will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a few. drops of a drug called freezone when applied to a tender, aching corn or hardened callus stops sore ness at once, and soon the corn or callus dries up and lifts riKht off without pain. He says freezone dries immediate ly and never Inflames or even irri tates the surrounding skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very litu at any drug store, bnt will positively remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet. Millions or American women will welcome this announcement since the Inaugura tion of the high heels. If your drug gist doesn't have freezone tell him to order a small, bottb you. , .. . ; ';w-';-. - . WHEN THE SOLDIER : BOY HAS "ARRIVED." By CAPTAIN GEORGE. I KILMER. Some day. suddenly perhaps. Bke a revelation. It will dawn upon tbe re cruit, after weeks and months of toll and setbacks, that he has "arrived" and Is a soldier. lie needn't be told. Among other lessons he has learned to be true and square at all times with officers above him and comrades his equals true and soon re to duty's Photo by American PreB Association.

Nerve and muscle need moral oacklng to endure. Tbe army must get at tbe enemy. Now. tbe enemy's firt play la to block that game.

Hill and roountalu climbing Is simpler in details, but harder on a man s powers. All good training of recruits from towns and cities includes mountain work. Bridge building calls for skill and courage. Mountain work ists endur ance and push.

Tbe self made officer is never a gen ius; simply a very practical man of native resource War is a succession of accidents and surprises. Seldom a campaign or battle goes through as planned. In the inidst of confusion quick shifts must be made. Then the born leader comes to the fore in tbe ranks. He sets himself to work, and then a suierior tells him to direct oth ers. Tbe others are glad to see order come out of confusion, follow the new lead, and all goes well. Tbe self made man may not be a scholar, but he will have a mind train ed to orderliness. Self disciplined, lie can discipline his fellows. If he can no$ write or keep accounts be can get some one to do it His reports to headquarters will be as well done as his trench digging and scouting enter prises. ' Some day tbe re "11 be a harry call for a lieutenant and none to spare. But the self trained leader can fill the role, and "promoted on the field" will be written opposite bis name on tbe company- records. It will all be due to the habit of doing well what he set his band to. tit If fl - . PLAXXIXO DIG TIME. ,.' Preparations Being Hade lo Enter tain Large Crowd at Filbert Picnic Aiignst 2nd.

Suffragettes or tbe State, and they are numerous. Lord bless 'em, will take notice ac cordingly. . Plans for the annual Filbert picnic are fast materializing. The program committee has heard from a number of invited speakers and It is practi cally certain that a number of big guns not only of the State, but of the Nation, are coming to Filbert, and from that little place deliver, all the people of South Carolina a mes sage. A letter from Congressman Ste venson received recently states that Miss Kankin is very much Interested in her proposed trip to Filbert, and that she will certainly be present Au gust -no ' unless something unfore-. seen arises.

Mclaurin and Congressman Ste venson replied in like manner. The good women up Filbertway are already looking the chickens over and the slaughter is going to be great on August 1 and greater still on picnic day which follows.

I'KGFS KIHCATOHS TO WATCH PIPILK' HEALTH. Hy International News Service.) PORTLA.VI:, ORE., .July 11. Horaco Ellis. State Superintendent of Public Instruction of Indiana, out lined a plan before Hie annual con vention of the Natlona' Editorial As sociation today whereby school chil dren might be niadn healthy and ro bust through the attention of their teachers. "Tcachert- should be advised to take particular charge of children from the titiio they arrivn in school until they leave.'' said Mi Ellis. "Far more important than conduct ing recitations h- this regard for tnn health and comfort of pupils of the school. The efficiency of the present day teacher is determined largely on thf. ahility to sen that her children get fresh air, plenty of water am! n diirtt." Mr. Ellis said that it is just as much the duty of the teacher to see that the pupils keep strong, in addi tion to warding off disease. In this connection he pointed out that the keeping In proper condition of tne four gVoups of organs for the elimin ation of waste products in th body was a cardinal essential to healtn. "Much nonsense and foolishness .have been indulged in over the mat ter of bathing." he said. "Promiscu ous bathing may be very dangerous. A bath is not so necessary as rub bing the body every morning with a coarse towel, to Insure a healthful condition of the skin. In regard to diet, it is better to eat a couple of apples as medicine rather than take the old nostrums, castor oil and such." A Resemblance. Chester Reporter. The exchange between ex-President Roosevelt and Labor Leader Gompers In New York Friday even ing had all of the ear-marks or a genuine South Carolina campaign meeting.

The world-crisis, as It effects the United State, and the part this country is playing in it, Is a test of the pubile school, according to Mrs. Mary C. C. Bradford, Superintendent of Public Instruction of Colorado, as express ed In an'address before the elemen tary section of the National Educa tion Association here today. Taking as her subject "The Pub lic School and the Nation In 1917," Mrs. Bradford declared that if the I'nited States carried into effect its avowed policy of "righteosness to all humanity" and "sacrifices for all nations" it will be "because the Am erican public school has. in some de gree at least, fulfilled the august task confided to it by the commands of democratic government." 'if. :Uter this great war to end war.-, sli.-il' bo over," sho continued. "Aii eric;' functions as the supreme idealistic force in the reorganization of the world, it will be because tne public schools have given to the na tion a higher vision than the world before bar, seen." 7 A yottnsj man :!4 years of age by the name of Jack Mitchell commit ted suicide at his home in Iredell county yesterday.

Raichford. oi route two, Gastonia, brought The Ga zette a valuable addition to its col lection of vegetable "freaks" yester day in tbe shape of a head of cab-i bage that was otherwise perfectly normal except that it had three or four well-formed heads attached to the roots, completely under the ground. After slicing off a large fine head for the table, Mr. Ratch ford pulled up the root of the plant and accidentally discovered this "un derground" cabbage. He claims this is slightly more of a vegetable won der than Mr. Sam Holland's . Irish potatoes growing on the vine above ' ground.' which were mentioned - In The Gazette of last Friday. These freaks are both on exhibition at The Gazette office for the benefit of tne Incredulous. . 7 A.- 3-
