THIS QUESTIONNAIRE MAY SOLVE PROBLEM ■ i The government already is exploit ing the Victory Liberty Loan, which will be floated in April, in order that the people may start saving for the purpose of investing in bonds of the “Victory issue.” The following brief Questionnaire should tend to clarify the mind of any reader regarding the Victory Loan: Q, The war being over, why is there need of another great popular war loan? A. The proceeds from the Fourth Loan, according to Secretary of the Treasury Glass, were exhausted last December, and the government must have billions more with which to maintain our forces overseas, bring the victors home and carry out its re construction plans. Q. If Uncle Sam’s strong-box Is empty, how iB he paying his after-war expenses? A. This is being done with money borrowed from the banks at the rate of 600,000,000 every two weeks, short term anticipation certificates of indebt edness being issued in return. Q. As long as the banks are ad vancing the money, why not let them continue to do so? A. Because in order to continue to extend credit to the business interests big and little of the country the banks must get back this money—amounting to 20 per cent of their entire re sources—when it falls due, as only thus can the prosperity we now enjoy be continued. Q. Will the Victory Loan be of fered to the people on a commercial basis, or will their patriotism again be appealed to? A. Secretary Glass says the pa triotism of the American people will be relied upon to send the loan trium phantly “over the top.” It, however, will be made particularly attractive as to rate of interest and period of ma turity. DOWN AND OUT—BUT HIS TONGUE STILL WAGS. THE HUN is still able to whisper. One of his favorite subjects is Liberty Bonds. The bonds are absolutely the best secured in the world, so he dare not attack them openly. He whispers to you to sell them, hoping to demoralize the market. And he has about as much chance of doing this as he had of winning the war. It is char acteristic Hun stupidity. Every time y9U are approach ed to sell your Liberty Bond or to trade it for stock in some unknown and unestablished project, remember it is the voice of the Hun speaking. Then take another grip on your Liberty Bonds and hold tight. Keep those you have and be ready to buy more when the Victory Liberty Loan is offered for sale in April.

STOMACH TROUBLE Mr. Marion Holcomb, of Nancy, Ky., says: “For quite a long while I suffered with stomach trouble. I would have pains and a heavy feeling after my meals, a most disagreeable taste in my mouth. If I ate anything with butter, oil or grease, I would spit it up. I began to have regular sick headache. 1 had used pills and tablets, but after a course of these, I would be constipated. It just seemed to tear my stomach all up. I found they were no good at all for my trouble. I heard THEDFORD’S Buck-Draught recommended very highly, so began to use it It cured me. I keep It in the house all the time.

AD Druggists J.O FOR THE BENEFIT OF ILLITERATES Bill Introduced In Senate and House In Their Behalf—The Church Organization Will Also Give Practical Aid. WILL PROMOTE EDUCATION The Significant Movement of the Times Is That of the Centenary of the Methodist Episcopal Church South—Will Spend Mil lions Among the Uneducated. The fact that several thousand sol diers were unable to understand the orders given them from their superiors and that many, many thousands could not sign their own names to their questionnaires brought to light a con dition so serious that two Southern Representatives at Washington are now Introducing bills to promote the education of illiterates throughout the length and breadth of America. Sena tor Hoke Smith, of Georgia, has intro duced a bill in the Senate “to promote the education of illiterates, of persons unable to understand and use the Eng lish language, and other resident per? sons of foreign birth,” and the same measure has been introduced in the House by Hon. William B. Bankhead, of Alabama. The Introduction of this Important hill means a great deal to the South, which, because of its negroes and mountain whites, has long borne a reputation for illiteracy out of propor tion to that of the rest of the coun try. Just what steps will be immedi ately taken as the result of the passage of the education of illiterates bill at Washington cannot be stated at this time, but, certainly, practical meas ures will be put into operation for the establishment of schools in both rural districts and cities. Other organizations besides that of the government are at work on the same problem —the establishment of schools in the heart of tenement dis triets and rural communities being a matter of first importance with all of them. One of the most significant movements of the times In this con nection is that of the Centenary of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, because that denomination will expend within the next five years over $3,665,000 among "Tfie uneducated classes in the Southern and Western States. The church is to raise a fund of $35,000,000 In an eight-day drive in April, the financial campaign being a part of the Centenary Celebration of the denomination. The money is be ing raised with a view to putting the work of the church on a business basis, the church considering Its duty to the illiterates here in America to be among the matters of first importance which it should undertake. A survey has been made and the result of the campaign will be the apportionment of $3,000,000 among the various illiterate population as follows: Mountain pop ulation, $750,000; Immigrant, $900,000; negroes, $600,000; Indians. $150,000; cotton mill population, $160,000; Chris tian literature for all of them, SIOO,OOO. With the definite step undertaken at Washington, with one denomination already completing its plans for fur thering the work among them, and with other churches and organizations getting ready to Join hands In their behalf, it is more than possible that the Illiterates of the South are In a fair way to soon become educated cltl iena of the United States. METHODIST LEADERS RETURN FROM FRANCE Three prominent leader* of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, have Just landed in America, after spending two months in Europe, whore they went for the purpose of investi gating actual conditions and deciding upon a program for the expenditure of 15,000,000, which sura will be allotted to European upbuilding by the Cente nary Commission of the denomination. The three returning church leaders are Bishop James Atkins, Chairman <A the Centenary Commission; Bishop Walter I>ambuth, who has been in Eu rope for nearly a year in the Interest of his church; and Dr. W. W. Pinson, General Secretary of the Mission Board Dr. Pinson and Bishop Atkins re turned to the headquarters of the de nomination at Nashville the latter part of the week, and Bishop Larabuth went directly to his home at Oakdale, Cali fornia While the plans for the European work have not been announced as yet, the returning members of the commis sion say that they have mapped out a very satisfactory program and that five million dollars of the Centenary fund will be expended in upbuilding schools and churches in the devastated lands of Belgium, Italy and France A SLEEPING GIANT. China is the world’s sleeping giant. A nation of nearly 400,- 000,000 souls there is the possi bility that China may become not only the leading power of the Far East, but of the world as well. China is looking to the peace conference for justice, and the sentiment in the Uni ted States is in favor of giving to her the same freedom -and rights enjoyed by other sover eignty powers. All the Entente Powers except Russia agreed to waive all payments of Boxer indemnity funds to their va rious governments far an indef inite time in considering Chi na's declaration of war against tin* central powers Years ago tin* United States proved her friendship for China by return ing the Boxer indemnity.
