SEARCHING THOUGHTS
There Is far greater equality be
tween men in sentiment than in
thought.
As soon as a sentiment becomes ex
aggerated tlie faculty or reasoning dis
appears.
Men of superior Intellectual power
are at times far below the suvugp In
sentiment.
A truth which Is opposed to feelings,
passions and beliefs, ceases to be a
truth to many persons.
We are not always worthy of the
love which we Inspire, but we gen
erally deserve the friendship which
we hold. —M. Le Ban.

The Very Stuff of Victory
The materialist has said buying Liberty Bonds signifies
nothing.
He looks upon each issue as representing an investment
which has no equal today in all the world.
Consequently, he views their purchase as involving no
sacrifice nor deserving of credit. As far as his vision lets
him see he is right. But unfortunate is he, indeed, who
cannot look beyond the simple action and recognize the full
power of the motive.
That these bonds are the greatest investment in the world
may rightly be laid at the feet of good fortune, because they are
the promise-to-pay-with-interest of the greatest government in the
world, backed by the most tremendous resources in the world.
Such, however, is not the great overwhelming and impel
ling reason that millions of red-white-and-blue menand women
now own billions of dollars of Liberty Bonds and in this Fourth
Liberty Loan are subscribing for billions more.
The motive is a far deeper one. It transcends all ma
terial considerations and its fabric is the very stuff of victory.
For Liberty Bonds to the great host of American men and
women represent work accomplished, thrift acquired, money
saved and devoted without stint or limit to that greatest pur
pose which shall finally achieve victory over organized force
inimical to the peace of the world.
So when your dollars are invested in United States Gov
ernment Bonds of the Fourth Liberty Loan, though they are
invested in the most wonderful investment in the world, they be
come more than ordinary dollars because they are then the
concrete expression of a hallowed purpose and dedicated to its
achievement, the very stuff of victory.
E>oaaSE>£ THIS SPACE SUBSCRIBED TO WINNING THE WAR
Gumming- Drug Store, T.. y 'cLdi
llozv About the Farmer ?
Tin- end of the fourtji Liberty Loan campaign is close at hand, and
tin- South has not fully met Its share of this national obligation.
There have been many sub . and many of them word large
There were some which re(sr . • nted merely the surplus money of wealthy
folk; there were many which meant real self-denial by the poor. But on the
whole, we have not mad< a sacri/ice. We have said to ourselves: "1 can
not spare any money ju. t now,” and turned the canvassers away with a
small subscription or with nothing at all.
Now, let us think this thing over, you and 1. This is our war. Our
boys are lighting in it, our country is hacking it. It is just as much our
war as though tlx- Germans were bombarding Charleston or Savannah or
Brunswick or New Orleans and threatening to march inland, burning and
destroying, and murdering innocent women und children. It isn’t a far-away
war in Europe. It is our war.
Let us consider this bond issue as a cold-blooded business proposition,
If you like. Suppose we were stockholders in a big business house which had
been waging a great and expensive light for success. Suppose our rivals
had fought us hard and hud almost won the victory. Suppose that wo
had poured every effort into the business and were gaining tiie advantage,
that we were right on tlio eve of permanent success—und our money ran
out!
Let us suppose that the president and directors you had elected to run
that business called on us as stockholders for more money to win this
light; that they assured us and proved to us that additional funds would
win. and pay up a handsome return. Would we button up our pocketbooks
nnd say: “No, it isn’t our business. We can’t spare the money?" No. We
would pour in all we had and mortgage our farms to borrow more, and
we’d pour that in, if we had faith in the business and the men who were
conducting it for us.
And we must not forget that tlie United States is our business, and the
greatest business of all. We have entered into a campaign to lick Ger
many and lick her so she can never raise her head again. And that takes
money. If we are not willing to pay our share, we prove we have no trust
in our own government.
The Southern farmer was worried a few weeks ago because he be
lieved the government was going to fix a low price on cotton. That was
not done, and we have assurances that it will not be done. President Wil
son heard the appeal of the cotton planter and was governed by it. Now
lie asks, in the name of the government, that the cotton planter and every
other farmer bear his share of the burden of the Liberty Loan and lend
the country every dollar he can save. Suppose the cotton planter of the
South shows up iu the last reports as having failed to do his fair share.
What position will he find himself in when he goes to Washington again
to ask that he be protected?
This fourth Liberty Loan is a big affair, but it Is not. a dollar too big
if every man will take tlfe lesson home to himself and do his full share,
without thinking of how big the amount of the national loan is. There
is not a man or woman in the United States who has a farm or a store or
a shop or a job who cannot buy a bond of large size or smatl. The banks
have made arrangements for small payments lasting six months. The man
who cannot save and invest SSO in six months is a mighty poor citizen. And
the average man who has two legs and two arms can do a great deal better
Ilian that.
And there’s something else—if you want to get back to the straight
business side of this Liberty Loan —a government bond, paying four and one
fourth per eent interest, better than gold or silver, which earn nothing—
Is a mighty good thing to have stuck away against that time of treble
which comes to alt of us some day.

Saving gugargaves Shipping
} lfK|
AMERICAN families would have less sugar than the
people of war torn France, if we depended entirely
on our home-grown sugar stocks.
Approximately 75 per cent, of our sugar is shipped
to our shores. We produce about 1,000,000 tons of sugar
a year. Our imports from abroad amount to over 3,000,-
000 tons a year in noripal times.
The United States Food Administration asks each
family to limit its use of sugar to two pounds per month
per person for household use. The military situation de
mands that every available ship be placed-at the disposal
of the Army or Navy. When we save sugar, we save
shipping.
