To the Citizens of Cleveland,

ally designated

gia, All loyal citizens of this com¬

J. E. NORTON, Mayor.
Speakers Chosen For War Sayings Day.
Recause of the scarcity of pro¬
curable speakers to deliver address¬
es at the school houses in White
county on War Savings Day, it
has been found necessary in some
instances to consolidate two school
communities where they are most
conveniently located. In instances
where consolidation has been an¬
nounced patrons and pupils of all
schools concerned ase especially
urged to meet at the school-house
designated and thereby prove their
willingness to loan the government
their money and show their sym¬
pathy for the cause in every way
possible. So far as possible there
will be held on that day a meeting
at 2 o’clock in every school house
in America. This will be a great
“get together’’ day, and let every
person who possibly can assemble
together in unity on that day that
the fact that this country is united¬
ly and determinedly grappling at
the throat of the the tyrant who
seeks by force to enslave the world
may he made the sooner to realize
the error of his inexcusable way.

This community was shocked on
last Wednesday evening when they
learned of the death of Master
Saul Pardue during the electrical
storm that passed over this section,.
This young man was born Oct. 4,
1905, and was just entering young
manhood. Saul was liked by all.
He was one of Loudsvill’s most
faithful Sunday School scholars.
He was brought up in one of the
best Christian homes in this com¬
munity—in the home of that grand
old man, Mr. J. L. Pardue—where
he was taught the Christian side of
life. Nothing but good advice was
entwined around his young li^s,
yet the Giver of life has touched
him and he has passed over the
great river—his soul has gone back
to the God who gave him life.
While the family is bowed down in
grief they all have placed their
trust in a higher power, and look
to the time when they hope to meet
him in the beautiful city above,
lie was laid to rest in Loudsville
cemetery on last Thursday to be
awakened by the Master’s voice.
The funeral service was conducted
by Rev. S. 1 ). Cherry, followed by
a host of relatives and friends.
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to return our heartfelt
thanks to tlie good people of the
entire community for the service
rendered us in the sad hour of
trouble that came to our home in
the death of our loved one. We
will ever cherish their kindness and
may God’s richest blessings ever
keep them is our prayer.
Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Pardue.

A very unique plan has been di -
cided on by the Georgia War Sav¬
ings Committee for the purpose of
the purpose of waking up the state
of Georgia in the forthcoming in¬
tensive W. S. S drive in June.
From June 14 until June 28 it is
planned to have all church and fire
bells, factory whistles, and other
mediums of noise, ring and blow
as loudly as they know how, every¬
day at 12 o’clock noon. Every¬
man, woman and child in every
community, on hearing the noisy
demonstration, will interpret it as
follows :
“Wake up. Georgia ! Sign the
pledge to save and buy all the War
Savings Stamps you can. Wake
up!”
The state wide concert will be a
clarion call to duty, and won’t dis¬
turb andbody except Bill Kaiser—
and no loyal American is very so
lictuous about Bill Kaiser’s welfare.

EVERYONE MUST HELP.
Wars cannot be fought without money, and upon the Treasury centers
every financial demand upon the Nation.
The rich of this country cannot alone meet the needs of the Nation;
the men of the country cannot do It alone; the women of the country
cannot do it alone; but all of us, the people of the United States, disre¬
garding partizanship, forgetting selfish interests, thinking only of the
supremacy of right and determining to vindicate the majesty of American
Ideals and secure the safety of Amerlc^and civilization, can do the great
and splendid work which God has called upon us to do.

Owing to the fact that the Leg¬
islature will be in session on the
28th day of June, it w.ili be im¬
possible for me to speak on that
date at Alexander school house I
would he glad to he there, and if it
were not for the fact that duty calls
me elsewhere 1 would be there.
Hon. A. L. Dorsey, sheriff, has
very kindly consented to be there
on that date and discuss war ques¬
tions ot vital importance with the
people. Air. Dorsey is a member
of tlie lwcnl Board, and knows
more about the machinery that is
used in running the present war
than most any of us.
1 would say, however, that we
are now engaged in one of the
most destructive wars that the
world iias ever known, and in my
opinion more depends on the re¬
sults of this war than we might
amafcine—our future freedom and
liberty and the desliny of our
wives, mothers and daughters.
Therefore we should stand by our
rulers with our lives, money and
property. It is only a pleasure to
me as well as a privilege to do iny
part. I am proud to be able to say
I have two hoys and one son-in
law now in the service. Someone
may he able to say more than this,
but to say the least of it few can
say as much. Now lets all pledge
our support to the government on
the grand 28th and as we meet
amid scenes of profound peace, let
