Aside from the natural tendency
to become more or less excited be
cause of the mobilization of the na
tional guard, it would seem that
there is every reason to believe that
war with Mexico is inevitable, is
only a matter of a few days—even
hours, perhaps. To be sure, Sec
retary Baker offlcally announces
that the troops are being mobilized
only to patrol the border, but this
is patently an effort to offset in
Mexico the news of our mobiliza
tion. Looked at from the outside
without knowledge of just what the
war and state departments have in
mind, it seems as though war is in
evitable.
Wilson and his advisers have
borne with Mexico and her mis
deeds long and patiently—longer
and more patiently than any other
government has ever before done.
To Carranza and his commanders
they have appealed in vain. Prom
ises have been given by Mexico
which Mexico had no intention of
kcepng. American lives have been
lost on American soil. Officers in
Carranza’s army have taken part in
border raids, escaping back cross the
line to safety hidden away by other
parts of Carranza’s armies. Amer
ican life and American property
along the border lias become unsaf
The administration has done every
thing it was humanly possible to do
to remedy conditions without a re
sort to arms. Now, it seems, this is
inevitable.
To have lo fight Mexico will be a
calamity, and—none the less so
even though there can be but one
outcome—the triumph of American
arms. Subduing (he Mexicans is not
a job to be taken lightly. It means
war and war in all its grimness and
horror. It means more years than
one of fighting, millions of money
and thousands of lives of America’s
best young men given to uphold the
country’s honor. It means what
war has always meant everywhere
and will always mean—privations,
wounds, death.
Even so, no American worthy of
the name would have it otherwise,
To longer hold back would be to
place a blot upon our nation’s hon
or. The president has spoken and
there can be no turning back.
What transpires from this time
forth depends on Caranza and his
men. There can he no question
hut that Washington has determin
ed to see the matter through along
Ihe line indicated by the mobiliza
tion of the country’s citizen soldiery.
If Caranza sees lit to attack our
troops in Mexico, he thereby seals
his own deatji warrant and makes
nil invasion of Mexico an assured
fact.
And even now, before it is known
whether or not this will really come
to pass, opportunities for display of
real patriotism begin to resent them
selves.
This morning four hundred young
men of Macon will be taken from
their places of employment to answer
the country’s call. They may be
absent for a week, a month, a year.
fio one knows, no one can guess
Certain it is, though, they will go
at a great personal sacrifice, a sac
rifice which will strike their fami
lies as well as themselves. Many of
them will receve $15 per month
where they have been drawing
more than this wekly. In addition
unless employers are patriotic
enouah to hold their places open
for them, they mav be free to re
turn to work within thirty days
only to find that they have given
not only their time but their jobs
to serve their country.
Does not the occasion warrant
employers doing THIS much for the
country when their men are ready
to do so much more?—Macon News

How America's largest cigarette manufac
turer accomplished “the Impossible” by
producing a MILD cigarette that SATISFIES.
It is the Chesterfield Cigarette :
ALMOST anybody can make a cup
/A of coffee. But there are said to
be not over a half-dozen restau
rants in the United States where they
know how to make it right.
Similarly, almost anyone can make a
cigarette. Just roll up some tobacco in a
piece of pure paper—and there you are.
There are, perhaps, over 800 brands
of cigarettes sold in this country today.
But not one of them does wlmt Chester
fields do—for Chesterfields are MILD ;
and yet they SATISFY.
Some cigarettes may he mild, hut they
don’t satisfy. Only one cigurette does
BOTH—Chesterfield!
This truly unique cigarette lias all
of that refreshing taste - delicacy (or
mildness) which any good cigarette must
have. Yet, without sacrificing any of
this delightful mildness, Chesterfields go
one step further — they do more than
merely “ please your taste”—they let
you know you’ve been smoking. They
satisfy !
And yet they’re mild-!
A Step Forward
in Cigarette - Making
ARE proud to be the firm that
T ’ brought about this important
development in cigarette enjoyment—
lor that is exactly what the Chesterfield
blend is.
This cigarette is an outgrowth of
long, earnest effort on the part of this,
the largest cigarette manufacturing con
cern in the United SLutes.
The mild, yet satisfying Chesterfield
blend is not the result of happy chance.
It is one of the results of our many years
of cigarette experience—of the heavy
volume of our purchases of cigarette to
bacco — of the prestige and advantage
these enormous purchases give us in se
curing the choicest leaf from the tobacco
fields of the world.
Chesterfields are an achievement.
A New Thing
for a Cigarette to Do
CHESTERFIELDS do the one thing
you have always wished a cigarette
would do—they satisfy !
Smoke them and we believe you will
find that ordinary cigarettes seem by
cumpariron almost flat.
Give Chesterfields a trial. We
believe you will be glad to learn
what they can teach you about
cigarette enjoyment.
★ ★ ★
You have been reading here some
rather unusual, almost daring, state
ments about a cigarette. If Chesterfields
were an untried cigarette — if we hud
not been observing their behavior in
other cities—if we did not KNOW that
they make good with smokers, we could
not afford to make these statements to
you over our signature.
But these statements, strong as they
nre, can mean little or nothing to you
until you have actually smoked your first
Chesterfield.
You will find that your own dealer
has Chesterfields waiting for you.
