HOW WAR BONDS CROW IN VALUE YEARLY *1 tk mm L Mil PI will WBtmS* J American Legion Calls Off Armistice Day B arbecue and Dance Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are compelled to postopone indefinitely the barbe¬ cue and dance planned for Nov. 12. Doug Thomas, the man we picked to do the barbecue job has been, and still is, very sick. We are afraid it woul overtax his strength, and we can’t seem to get meat in sufficient quanti¬ ties. We, hope all our friends will bear with us and look for a good barbecue later when the right time comes. The dance is also called off. Several attempts to contact music have met with failure- We want good country music with “fiddles,” etc- We can get good music from Chattanooga, but it costs too much. These benefits we are having from time to time are for the Flag Fund, and we can’t afford to give half the proceeds for music. Our membership is growing by leaps and bounds. Veterans of World War II are coming in so fast the adjutant can’t keep up with them. Hence the delay in getting out membership cards- But we are glad to see these young men of World War II. We want to see them take an active part in Legion affairs and as¬ sume some or all of the offices. “Every member get a new member or members” is an ex¬ cellent slogan. We have a ot of work to do- Work of national importance, and which entails sacrifice and outlay of both labor and money. For instance, the Legion is sponsoring the “Thanks to the Yanks Who Gave” program. This is a project to give a Christmas gift to every wounded man or woman in a hospital either here in the United Stattes or abroad. Wherever these may be, the Legion will find them. Anyone may subscribe. If you have a gift or want to buy a gift, leave them with members of the Legion throughout the county. They will be collectetd and sent tin to help give some wounded man or wo¬ man a joyous Christmas. —WM. NICOLL. Davis Carnival a Big Financial Success The carnival at Davis High School on October 31, was a big success. In fact it was the best carnival ever put on at Davis. Every booth was conveniently arranged so as to meet the de¬ mands of all- The basket-ball throw, arrow-throw, and the loop throw, brought in the most money, but the large roomy cafe did wonders. Short skits and plays were given in the audito¬ rium, and many sought this as a resting place from the noise- ome crowd. All in all, the carnival was an event which we are proud of. The Davis School realized a grand total of oved four hun¬ dred and fifty dollars from the two hours of entertainment. The parents, teachers, and the school thank each of you that helped to make our carnival possible. Trenton Seaman Helps Bring Prisoners Home Aaron Surber Hubble, water- tender, second class, Trenton. Ga., is serving with the “magic carpet” unit of the Naval Air Transport Service’s Pacific wing which is engaged in returning RAMP’S (recovered Allied mil¬ itary prisoners) back to the States from the Pacific.

C- Adams told Dade farmers this week “Every cow should have all the grown grazing and hay will eat.” There is good demand for milk cream but underfed cows the purchase of large a- of feed that could be on the farm should be Mr. Adams said. A few fed cows generally produce milk than a larger number poorly fed cows. “Each milk cow needs one to acres of good permanent one half acre of other grazing, one half acre temporary grazing for the and spring months and to two tons of hay for the supply of roughage,” the agent pointed out. “Pro¬ this feed on the farm to reduce costs and incre¬ the labor income and profit the dairy enterprise. “Part of the concentrates, es¬ winter cereal grains, can produced on the farm,” he “The cereal grains usually yield more feed per with less labor than sum¬ row crops. Cne acre of oats provides as much digest¬ feed as two acres of corn, requires less labor to grow.” Because cf the il’ness of his S. J- Hale, Atty. Maddox J. Hale, who has or the past months been practicing law in Kno::vill2, Tenn., has re- utrned to Trenton and. for the time being at least, will resume the practice of law here. Mad¬ dox will welcome a visit from any and all of his old friends and acquaintances at any time. The Times is glad to welcome him back to Trenton. -□-- Buy Victory Bonds Published Weekly — Since 1901. IT’S SURPRISING—how War Bonds grow in valua each year. If held until maturity they earn S3H per cent and they have a yearly added value. The chart tell* it* own story for a 8100 Series E Bond. The scale to the left show* how a $1,000 Series E Bond grow*. The chart shows that the increase in value is greatest in the later years of the bond’s life. Note how the rate of interest goes up in the second three years of the bond’s life. Study the increase in the $1,000 bond. Holders of bonds the last few years, considering the above, would literally be throwing money away to cash them prior to maturity. The New York Stock Exchange in the more than .150 years of its existence has neveV recommended other bonds than those of the United States.
