This parade was headed by the U. S. Flag carried by a man in the service wearing the regulation army uniform, just behind the national flag floated the Red Cross standard borne by the director of woman’s work for the county chap ter. In double file behind these were the mothers, sisters and other rela tives of men in the service holding proudly aloft their service flags, bright banners with their gleaming stars of blue, symbolic of the bearers’ sacrifice to the great cause. Next to these came the service flag of the Bap tist church carried by the President of the W. M. U. Then followed a line of patriotic women bearing the tional colors* and here and there could be seen figures dressed in the conven tional Red Cross costumes. In the rear of the line on foot was a line of decorated automobiles and trucks all carrying Liberty Loan Banners and flying the national colors. Conspic uous among these was a machine of the make that has become markedly conspicuous in the mechanical equip ment of war—a tractor of the Ford type, carrying a trailor, filled with a* precious cargo, a dozen or more lit tle girls whose bright faces looking out from beneath the floating banners dl of red, white and blue were a living, human tangible expression of the im portance of supporting the war loan— that they and all others of their kind may be protected from the brutal r^rages of war. The parade was un der thb command of Ensign U. V. Henderson, assisted by members of the Woman’s Committe of the Fourth Liberty Loan. Soon after the hour scheduled for . the train to arrive, it hove in sight, Its approach was heralded by the aim wltaneous sounding of all the whistles and gongs in the city. The cars were parked on D. B. Thompson’s side track and promptly: the program be gan. The director in charge made few announcements and introduced Lieut. Stevens, who briefly and with the characteristic pep of the Ameri can fighting man who has been in the thick of the fray, described the var- iuos instruments of war, presenting each one as he did so, showing the people what the money they are ask ed to lend is expended for. Others followed, giving thrilling accounts of their experiences in the trenches and making eloquent appeals for those present to give their support to the great undertaking. The actual sale of bonds was con ducted bv Dr. Harry McKeen, a mem ber of the train staff who handled the safe in a businesslike manner, nct- collection were French depth charges, brothers, Hugh Paul and Dave,■in this respect are lending aid to the shells, flying pigs, aeroplane bombs, gas projectiles, trench mortar guns, captured German aeroplane, camou flaged machine guns, Zeppelin bombs, the captured German war instruments having been taken in the big spring drive. When the sale was over apd the train closed, the train personnel was tendered a delightful dinner furnish ed by the Men's Committee and pre pared by the Woman’s Committee. The use of the spacious show room of the Ford Garage was tendered by the owner for this feature, which was greatly enjoyed by the honor guests.

DR KENNON MOTT & ASSO CIATES 428 Austell Building, Atlanta, Ga. The. little city of Pinehurst has un- deigone a series of improvements in the buildings of its residence and commercial sections recently. A number of attractive homes have been built others remodeled and modern ized with various improvements and alltogether the little town has taken on quite a spic and span air. The most recent addition to the commercial center is a handsome brick structure, the property of Mr. E. H. Pcavy, which will be used as a sales stable. Thcb uilding is ideally located for the purpose for which it was built—the exhibition and sale of live stock. Mr. Peovy the owner, hat enjoyed a splendid sale business there for several yenra and now that he is so much better prepared for a more extensive business he will doubtless have even greater success. PEOPLE OF COUNTY * URGED TO MEET AIRPLANES TO FLY OVER SCAT- TER1NC LIBERTY LOAN PRO PAGANDA AND OTHER BOMBS. HON. CHAS. R. CRISP TO SPEAK Vienna’s gates will be thrown op en Friday afternoon and every per son in the county is urgently re quested to be here for a Community Rally which will be held. Like ev erything else that is planned by the Red-blooded Americans now, this ral ly will be patriotic in nature and all who come can cooperate in making this spirit manifest by exhibiting on their person or automobiles or other vehicles the national colon. The squadron of airplanes "which according to the schedule will arrive about 2 o’clock for an air perform ance should prove a great attraction. Interest in these marvelous mechani cal birds has never waned, despite the fact that their appearance overhead has become quite frequent and the announcement that on this particular occasion they will come prepared to do some particularly fancy stunts,' will have a tendency to stimulate this in terest. Another highly interesting feature of the afternoon’s program will be an address by the Hon. Chas. R. Crisp, of Washington, D. C. Mr. Crisp needs no introduction or words of pralso from any individual to the people of Dooly, his record as a democrat and a loyal patriot stands like an open book with never a single unworthy act to mar its pages. The people of Dooly will count it a distinct privf- lege to hear Mr. Crisp on this occa sion. He is just from the capital city, where he has been in the midst of the government war activities and will bring a message that all should hear. The speaking will be at the court house at 3 o’clock. Everybody is invited-and everybody should come. — Am Enlist as our soldiers Liberty Bonds. do. Buy FOR SALE 204 seres of land known as the Thombley place 3 miles from Vienna on three main highways.
