Ask any wealthy man today how he became rich and he
will tell you that it all began with his little savings account.
“Luck” had nothing to do with it. He made his own luck by
“cutting out” all extravagances and “salting” his money in
the Bank.
Come in and open an account in our Bank. You will be
glad you did. We will be glad to take care of your money for
you.

GET LOT FROM LEE
Congressman Gordon has mail-
I t and from Washington a letter to each
! of the four thousand men of the Sev-
I enth Congressional District included
|ln the first draft for service in the
| United States army now being raised.
The recipients of this letter cannot
but be cheered upon receiving from
.Mr. Lee evidence of his intense inter
est in each and every one of his con
stituents, and it will be deemed by
those who have received these letters,
as well as by all others who know of
them having been sent, tha* it was
thoughtful as well as evidence of the
personal interest in those who are go
ing to war.
Mr Lee’s letter is as follows:
Washington, D. C„ August 4, 1917.
My Dear Friend:
Our country has been forced into
war by the cruel aggressions of an
enemy who has violated our rights,
murdered our citizens on the high
seas, and is seeking to overturn the
liberal governments of the world and
deprive us of our heritage of liberty.
The Selective Draft System was
chosen as the means to rise an army
to defend our rights. While there was
some difference of opinion as to how
the army should be raised—volunteer
or selective draft —congress by a large
majority chose the selective draft sys
tem since it favors no individual,
class or profession. It is now the law
of the land and we as patriotic Amer
icans should stand by our president
and our country.
I am thinking of the brave and
splendid young men of my district
who have been called to defend our
country’s freedom and safety, and I
write this letter to let you know that
whether your services be on land or
sea, guarding the Mexican border, or
cu the battlefields of Europe, my best
wishes and deepest concern for your
welfare will always he with you. A
grateful state and nation will applaud
your bravery and courage in the part
you take in this, the greatest of all
wars.
When away, your friends will often
think of you and wish for you a brief
absence and. a safe return to your
home.
Assuring you of my heartfelt good
wishes always, I am,
Your friend,
GORDON LEE.
THE RED CROSS.
Under the very shadow of the cross
of Calvary the ministrations of mercy
and help to the wounded and dying
were born. Born there, at that moment
in the heart of a rough Roman sol
dier, who, when he heard the cry
wrung from the lips of the dying
Christ, “I thirst,” ran and filled a
sponge with a cooling drink and fixed
it to the head of his soldier’s spear
and held it up to the parched lips of
Jesus. That was the first deed done
under the sign of the Red Cross. That
deed of mercy to the dying Christ has
been multiplied uncounted times by
the influence of the living Christ.
Today on battlefields and in camps
and hospitals the Red Cross brings re
lief from suffering and new hope of
life. It staunches the flowing of blood
and hushes the groans of the wound
ed. There are only two things in all
this agony which make it bearable.
One is the heroism with which men
go forth to die under the flag of their
country; the other is the service of
men and women, who, forgetting dan
ger, go forth to do deeds of mercy un
der the sign of the Red Cross.
A soldier falls tvounded upon the
field. The tide of assault passes on
and he is left alone and suffering. Af
ter the hours pass he hears voices and
he sees those who wear the Red Cross.
It bears to him the message that the
Red Cross on the door of his house
bore to the Hebrew bondman in
Egypt—a message of deliverance. It
bears to him the message that speaks
for all mankind from the cross of
Christ —the assurance of release from
suffering and death. —Rev. H. J. Mikell

THE SOUTH'S GIFT TO
THE FIGHTING WORLD.
As our "first ten thousand'’ sailed
I out of harbor for their unknown port
! in France, so the published story goes,
it was ‘ Dixie” that broke the tcare
ness of the final moments and stirred
the crowd to heart-ease and to cheers.
First there was "Tipperary,” raised
by a blithe young soldier voice as if
I tc break the heavy portent of drama
j tic understanding that threatened to
overwhelm the waiting crowd. But
■•Tipperary” would not do. It was the
marching song of English hoys too
! newly dead to he forgotten. It but art
j ded to the strain.
There was a silence, then a quiet
! note or two, with that breath-catching
| pause that we know so well, then a
i whirling uplift of quick melody, and
the ship’s band had burst into the
ringing strains of “Dixie!”
It was that same "Dixie” that
Lincoln proclaimed a national posses
sion when he had it played by the
government band in Washington on
the fateful day of Lee’s surrender. It
is loved by Americans, North and
South. It now bids fair to encircle the
earth.
It was the South's battle song of
the Sixties. It tells the story of heroic
armies long ago dissolved, and of

blood red banners pried these many
years. It stirs the heart to memory
and to tears.
Yet it is not martial air. We do not
stand to its strains, nor do we un
cover when it is played. It is intimate
and human, filled less with grandeur
than with joy. It is more than a war
song, it is the heart song of the south.
It is our song of childhood and soft
lullabies, of youth, and pride, and hap
piness. It holds the perfume of mag
nolia and of jessamine. It is tender
with the sound of the south wind
blowing through long moss. It is vi
brant with the rustle of palmetto
leaves, and sweet with the melody of
s’ave voices singing in the cotton and
the cane.
In the heart of its lightness, it car
ries the patriotism and sacrifice of
splendid youth, the eternal youngness
of our long-gone heroes. Its strains
defy regret and grief. They bring to
us, through many years, the suirit of
a generation that held to the joy of
life even in the midst of desolation
and defeat. In their melody, the daunt
less hope of such youth lives again.
“Dixie” is the home song of a brave
and lovely land. It holds no bitterness,
it makes no plea. It goes straight from
heart to heart.
And now, of this dear southern
song of ours, we make a gift to the
