McCord, head of the district war loan organization. He succeeds W. C. Wardlaw, chairman for four successful campaigns, who has been made associate director and as sistant to Governor McCord in the war loan work. Mr. McFadden has b?en active in former campaigns, and was vice chairman in the fourth Liberty Loan drive. ft; v jv&nZ&t _;<:• / V-gwR? HS&' , ’fciMiiiiriiti W iv v ' ' JBBW Haynes McFadden 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 -4 tion.
