less they get a move on and py 1
up before mailing day. We h iv.:
sent out letters and rmrko.l iln:
datos on the lnlel and yet some,
nre stayin I nwa'. The govern
ment says ttvat we must cease
sending such pcop'o the paper. It
is largely our fault that we have
allowed subscriptions to drag u
long overdue but it looks - like
people would see that we have
accommodated them and that
since the government is about to
get in between us that they would
come up now and set themsel
ves right Neglect- will not pay
the debt. If the paper is stopped
and you "owe us the account will
stand against you on the books
and if you never pay ft you will
go up to judgement with it
against you. We have put our
hard earned money and time
apd effort Into making" a paper
and sending it to you and we
shall not forget that you owe us
for it. Some folks seem to think
that if they quit the paper in
deU to it that the debt automati
cally cancels, itself. ' There are
doubtless people in "hell today,
who thought that if they, quit
their meanness they ruld be
saved whether they got forgive
ness for what was already against
them or not. Suppose you tell
your time merchant that you
h ve decided to pay cash here
a'ter and refuse to pay up what
you owe him what will he think
of youT Come on, now, be game.
- Pay up what you are behind and
renew for another year 8hd show
your faith in your government
by supporting and reading a
newspaper that stands four
square for the country you live in.

mout will offer another issue of government Umdtiij.'je known - as. ,
the Fourth Lilierty Bonds. The campaign foe selliug these bqnds will
continue through three weeks closing October J9th. Th placing of
these bonds will claim the attention of the-people of the nation for
the next three weeks with probably more absorbing interest than
anything else except the uctivities in the war vine. Th j money re
alized from this sale of bonds will be used as that obtained from other
issues, feeding, clothing and arming our soldiers who have gone to-
fight Jhe battles for humanity, civilization and Chflsllanity. Every
section of the United States is expected to rise to this call for a loan
io the government by the great sovereign people and to cast into her
coffers the gold that will secure for humanity a decent world to.
Jive in.
.The various committees have been appointed for the respective. .
communities and districts and plans are fast taking shape for the
liig drive that is to begin Saturday. Let Cleveland county and Kings.
Mountain be up early Saturday morning w five the war whooni
and start the baU to rolling t4 feerlin. Let the people who have (
he money to "buy "betas toste their subscriptions early and let our
good county a twn be the first over the top with drawn sword
and fixed bayonet. Let those who can buy bonds nd let those wlu
jeannot tmyjtit out end hooray and lend-their influence. Some of us
have money to lend, others have influence. We can afford to with
hold neither. Sometimes influence is a most valuable asset where
the cash is not available. If you cant buy bo'ndi dont be ' ashamed
to whoop up the campaign. Now is tne tima for every man to coma
to the aid of the country. Let us dt as well over here as our beys
are doing over there. Already they are listening across the briny
deep which separates them fro a home and loved ones with ear to
a ? . -a j ''. li
the ground if perchance they way hear their brethern in the flesh
pledging bmw their loyalty to the cause so .dear, toe very liberty lov
anghomm being. Let our boys over there read in the Herald that
Kings Mountain and Cleveland county have icsp ndsd with their
anraey as freely as they have don with their bodit-s which they
'Birve "cast "as a living sacrifice upj:i the dta of their country.
