Avery large proportion of the coun
ties In the Southern States have adopt
ed the individual quota sjstem for the
Victory Loan, and expect thereby to
distribute the investments in securi
ties over wider ground. By this sys
tem, every citizen will be assigned a
definite quota which he is expected to
take, just as states and counties have
their quotas. This will be based on
his income and property, and will be
subject to change by a local appeals
committee if he feels his quota has
been fixed at too high a .figure.
In previous campaigns, counties
which used the individual quota plan
went over the top quickly and by a
large margin, without placing the bur
den of heavy investments on compar
atively few patriotic citizens. This
plan makes every man feel certain that
his neighbor also is carrying his share
' the obligation to his country.
Muscles of a Bird’s Wings.
It Is estimated that the muscles of
i bird’s wing are 20 times more pow
erful, proportionately speaking, than
hose of a man’s arm.
Stropping Razor on the Hand.
It Is claimed that the finest strop for
n razor Is the fleshy part of one’s hand
below the little finger. If It is a safety
razor blnde grnsp It between the thumb
and first finger of the right hand and
strike finger nail and blade at the
same time on the fleshy part of the left
hand. If you will do It slowly at first
the motion becomes automatic. A lit
tle vaseline on the cutting edge is said
to keep the blades constantly in first
class condition.
Keep Smiling.
Happiness of heart and soul can
be willed. It is psychologically true
that the laugh which Is at first forced
may later be made genuine. Try It.
Try rending the joy column of the pa
pers and magazines. Treasure the
good ones and pass them on to friends.
Don’t destroy a play because It Is for
laughing ipurposes only. Hunt such
comedies and toll others of them.
Start every day in good humor, with
a smile. It will help brighten the day
for others.
AN INTERESTING LETTER
FROM GERMANY.
Germany,
March 4th, 1919.
Dear Brother Lewis.
I will answer your letter that
I received a few days ago. \>4s
very glad to hear from you. I
am well and having a fine old
time. Hope these few lines will
find you the same.
Well Lewis we are having some
mighty fine spring-time weather
now, is coming to
life.
Say, I will tell you about some
of my experiences on the Muse-
Argonne front. One day last
October a patrol of 12 men, I in
the bunch, went out to find the
enemy’s position, the woods were
f>o had we couldn't move hardly
without making a noise. We had
to climb over and under large
.trees that were cut down by the
artillery fire, but we managed to
get through. We advanced with
in fifty yards of the enemy’s line
Jiefore we were fired on. They
pnade it pretty hot for us, but we
stuck for a few minutes and gave
them just as many bullets as they
gave us. I planted my automatic
rifle in a shell hole and fired three
clips, each clip holding twenty
rounds of ammunition. The Ger
mans being so good at the game,
they located my position at once
and chucked a hand grenade at
me. The grenade struck a small
tree in front of me which caused
the grenade to hit about three
yards to my left and exploded the
pressure, and I was knocked sense
less for a few minutes. After I
came to myself and found that I
was not hurt, I took my automa
tic and fell back a few yards and
got behind a large tree that was
lying on the ground and pounded
■the led into them until we got
orders to fall back to our old posi
