LIBERTY LGAn IMS WELL WORTH KNOWING New York banks are said by the New York Times to now hold very small blocks of Liberty Bonds. This is accounted for by the facts that most of these banks received only a rela tively small amount of the bonds they subscribed for, and that they have made sales to their customers of those they did receive under the allotment. The fact that the banks are not load ed down with these bonds is regarded by the Times as denoting a very healthy condition for the Liberty Loan bond market as it show’s that there is a popular demand for the bonds. The New York Sun says that the as tounding leap in the number of bond investors from the comparatively small number of bond holders previous to the Liberty Loan Bond sale to over four million subscribers to the Liberty Loan, has opened the eyes of the bank ing world to the enormous possibili ties which will undoubtedly he at their disposal for placing the second gov ernment loan. The people, it states, have been impressed with the advant age of saving and lending money to the government. Postal savings in New r York* have been mounting rapidly notwithstand ing numerous purchases by small in vestors of Liberty Loan Bonds. De posits at the New York Postoffice and branches increased nine million dol lars or forty-eight per cent for the current year, and the number of de positors now number one hundred thirty-five thousand. The Cleveland Plain-Dealer of July 20th is the authority for the statement that the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland has lately sold about five and a half million dollars worth of Liberty Ixian Bonds at par and ac crued interest. The New York financial corres pondent of the Philadelphia North American predicts that Liberty Loan Bonds will soon go to a little above par. The San Francisco Chronicle states that the withdrawals from banks to make the payments on the Liberty Loan subscriptions caused only a slight shrinkage in deposits, the de posits for the Federal Reserve Dis trict amounting to over three hundred million dollars and the shrinkage be ing only one hundred twenty-two thousand dollars. The shrinkage, stat ed as due solely to the Liberty Loan payments, will be more than made up almost immediately by the redeposit ing of the money in the banks. The Liberty Loan Cycle. Through the sale of Liberty Loan Bonds the United States is borrowing large sums of money from its citizens, its business men, farmers, bankers, wage earners, merchants, manufactur ers. The government collects this money and disburses it in two ways. Part it expends itself and part it loans our allies. The United States and these other governments spend it for American products and American la bor and it goes back directly into the hands of the people, the American business man, farmer, banker, wage earner, merchant and manufacturer. This is the cycle. John Smith the farmer and Thomas Brown the wage earner each has purchased a Liberty Loan Bond paying down the initial payment of 2 per cent. On June 28th they made the 18 per cent payment, depositing the amount in their banks and sending checks to the Federal Re- serve Bank of their district. The Fed eial Reserve Bank collects the check and redeposits the money with the lo cal banks. Later the Treasury Depart ment draws against it and the money is again lodged with the Federal Re serve Bank. It is almost immediately withdrawn from the Federal Reserve Bank either by the United States or by some foreign government engaged in war with Germany to which the United States has advanced money and is paid out for American products or labor. Some of it is spent for farm products and raw material and some of it for manufactured products, thus going back into the bands of Ameri can citizens, _ ITierefore the money paid lit Vy lh& above mentioned John Smith and Thomas Brown on June 28th in part payment of their Liberty Loan Bonds may have gotten back into their hands in time to make up part of their pay ments made July 30th. The Women's Campaign For Liberty Loan. The women of America did splendid v.ork for the first issue of Liberty Loan Bonds and are making prepara tions now for a rxi'e complete organ ization and more thorough woTk for the next issue of bonds which is to be announced later by Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo. The plan of cam paign for the next issue adopted by the Woman’s Liberty Loan Commit tee, with headquarters at Washington, makes the state the unit of organiz ation and provides for the utilization THE BARTOW TR I BUN STH E CARTERSVILLE f C ' S AUGUST 9. 1917 yj . AUiAUuU.ia in L)I Q* moling the sale of the bonds. The committee has appointed in each state and territorial division of the United States a chairman, who will have at her command the organ- I izations of women in her state who i have been banded by the state units of the Woman’s Committee of the Council of National Defense and the I Liberty Loan committees of women j which were established independently | during the first issue and remaining I intact for the second campaign. I Through these organizations each | state chairman will be able to organ ize every county, city, town or vil lage in her state. The general committee has also ap pointed chairmen in each of the twelve Federal Reserve banking dis tricts in the United States. These chairmen serve as delegates from the Woman’s Committee to the Liberty Loan committees of their various banking districts, co-operating with the latter on all matters pertaining to the relations of women to the Liberty Loan. They also act as intermediaries between the Liberty Loan committees of their districts and the state chair men whose territories lie within the Federal Reserve Districts. By means of constant communications with the state chairmen the district chairmen w ill keep the latter in touch with the Federal Reserve Liberty Loan work, supplementing the directive labors of the Woman’s Liberty Loan Commit tee at Washington. 1 OBITUARY | MRS. BERTA ELROD. Mrs. Berta Elrod, wife of J. M. El rod, was born near Pine Log, Bartow county, Georgia, October 13, 187.5 and departed this life July 14, 1917. She was the daughter of Mr. and .Mrs. J. W Stubbs; her mother's name before marriage was Savannah Stanford. In early life she was converted and united with the Presbyterian church Her devotion to her family and the church was inspired by faith in the word of God and the gospel of Jesus Christ. This fidelity was manifested by patience and love in the home cir cle and by active service in her church as far as strength and means would permit. Her love for the good and pure grew and increased as the days and years went by. Her devotion to her husband and children w r as intense. She loved her children as only a mother could love, and her hightest was for them to have noble characters and enoble the lives of others. I was intimately associated with Berta for three years in work and study, since that time she has seemed BACK WHERE IT WAS WHEN THE WAR STARTED. There has been such wonderful changes in everything since the war started that it is very unusual now to find anything like it was then, when it comes to prices of any kind of com modity. Cotton goods have advanced 35 to 50 per cent, metal 50 to 100 per cent, some provisions more than 100 ppr cent, just one thing at one place hits gone backwards and that is some 10 to 25c lawns and batiste that you can get in short pieces at 5c a yard at Hardaway’s while it lasts. Also about 100 pair of men’s, women’s and chil dren’s shoes at the old prices or little more than half the present price of such shoes which are odd sizes left over from the'regular stock since Hardaway quit buying shoes, as lie is I going out of the shoe business. He has | iust received a tot of counterpanes of $1.50 variety to go at $1.25 while they last and will, -for awhile, sell Simp son’s and other best brands of calico at 9 cents, one cent below the present wholesale price. Also has two cases of Jackson C. C. corsets at the old price of 50c and SI.OO each, the whole sale price of which has now gone to SI.OO and $12.00 a dozen. T two were bought before the two last advances in corsets. While Octagon soap and Sweetheart soap and Star Naptha washing powders have all gene up to seven cents Hardaway for awhile will sell Octagon soap at 6c a bftt* khd Sweetheart soap and Star Naptha washing powders at 5c and Sweetheart talcum powders at 5$ a nd S-4 and 10-4 bleached pepperel sheet ing 3 to 5c below the market price. Have just received a big lot of ladies’ under vests at the old and unusual price of 10c. Also men’s balbriggan 4>> cents undervests and drawers at SCe. You can reduce a part of your cost of high living by getting 4A roast coffee at 20 cents from Hardaway in stead of paying 30 cents for inferior coffee elsewhere. And also get 6 s]K>ols Coats thread for 2e like no one else sells It but Hardaway. There are several hundred other items you buy every day that you can save about £5 per cent on if you just as soon get it from a 1 horse store as to buy from a big store where heavy expense and credit sales necessitate high prices.— (advt.) 1 i „t H’-e a sister to me. Never have ~..* cnirft Her life I known a sweeter spirit, ne. p -nnQUiup made so by the was one of sunsnme uiauc u. living presence of the living Savior. Her friends were all that knew her. In even- condition of life she stood firmly as a model Christian. For near ly two years she was an invalid, but she never murmured or complained. Her life stands as an example of pa tience, love and virtue. Like a flower glvino out sweetness with its roots firmly planted and nourished in God’s holy soil, untainted by contact with the world of sin, and making the world better by having lived in it, she withered as she lingered in her sickness but retained her sweetness to the end. To husband and children she loved so tenderly, may heaven become sweeter because of her being there, and may her prayers be answered by the homecoming of each of them some sw’eet day. The funeral was conducted from the home, the Rev. Z. M. McGhee, her for mer pastor conducting it. She is survived by her husband and four children. REBECCA. FOR SALE —Two good milk cows. Apply to W.
