LETTER SENT BY OUR
SECRETARY OF CHAPTER
i
The following letter was sent to
each of the Branches of the Cobb
County Chapter by Miss Cortelyou
last week:
My Dear Madam Chairman:
The Cobb County Chapter A. R. C.
will soon enter its second year of
work. Our past record is credita
ble ,seven branches with a total mem
bership of 1750. Much work is a
head of us this coming year; how
ever, with our boys now in the front
line in France, and with the civilian
population of the devastated dis
tricts of our Allies looking to us
for aid, we must increase our activ
ities this year. Another $100,000,00
drive will be put on May 27-27. Make
your plans now for your branch to
renew all memberships taken out last
May and June, also to secure every
new member possible.
Help with the Liberty Bond Loan
drive, which is now on in every way
that you can. Cobb County Chapter
will carry on all their lines of sup
ply work; hospital supplies, knitting
and surgical dressings. The Mari
etta Branch is the only one so far
that is doing this last important work
If your branch wishes information
along this line, write to Mrs. Howell
Trezevant, Supervisor for the Chap
ter. Teachers can be supplied from
the Marietta Branch. What ever you
decide to do in the way of supply
work, please write Mrs. John M. Gra
ham, director of Woman’s Work for
the Chapter.
With best wishes for success,
Sincerely yours,
MABEL C. CORTELYOU, Secty.
Cobb County Chapter, A. R. C.

ROSTER OF COBB COUNTY
VOLUNTEERS IS WANTED
An effort is being made to perfect
the list of our Volunteers of Cobb
County. The list of the soldiers of
the Selective Service is a matter of
Record, but as no complete list of the
Volunteers is on the County Records
the Daughters of the American Rev
olution of the Fielding Lewis Chap
ter of Marietta have undertaken this
Roster.
At the recent Sate Conference of
the Daughters of the American Revo
lution, held in Athens, an evening’s
entertainment was given to the Con
ference by the faculty of the State
I.lb v B
iberty Bonds
Dollars!
WHY IS A $lO BILL VALUABLE?
Only because the United States Government has prom
ised to “pay-on-demand” $lO in gold to the “bearer.” That
promise is backed by the whole wealth of the country.
Knowing the Government can keep its promise, you do not
hesitate to accept a $lO bill in payment for products or ser
vice rendered. The same promise that is behind your $lO
bill is behind every
[LIBERTY BOND
There is but ONE difference: Your bill does NOT
draw interest: Liberty Bonds do. Both are backed by the
same security. As long as the Government can pay “on
demand” the ten dollars in gold represented by your bill, its
promise on the Liberty Bond will be kept.
it is to vour advantage to exchange your dollars for
Bonds. You simply give vour Banker vour check and the
Government sends vou the interest on the date it is due.
Your money then is used to buy supplies from ycu and
vour neighbors for the men who are protecting you from
oppression by the German nobility.

HEALTH CONDITIONS
GOOD IN ARMY CAMPS
The health of troops in the United
States continues very good, according
to a recent report to the Surgeon
General of the Army by the Division
of Field Sanitation. Admission, non
effective . and death rates somewhat
higher than last report, due chiefly
to prevalence of influenza and bron
chitis with complicating puneumonia,
in many of our nothern camps.
National Guard camps, as a group,
continue with remarkably low rates.
Very few new cases of measles and
meningitis have occurred.
National Army camps continue to
have high sick rates as compared with
camps of other groups, though the
rates are lower than last report.
Scattering cases of measles are re
ported from all camps.
MISS BESSIE WILKIE |
BURIED LAST TUESDAY
Miss Bessie Wilkie, 16 years old,
died at the home of her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. F. B. Wilkie, at Oakdale
Station on Monday. The funeral
was held from the residence oun Tues
day afternoon, and the interment was
in Casey’s Cemetery.
Normal College, and in the address of
Prof. Jere M. Pound the attention of
the D. A. R. was directed to the fact
that no record was being kept in the
counties, and suggested that as a pa
triotic organization the Dauglhiterg
take the matter up in their own
counties. t
In pursuance of this suggestion,
and with the feeling that it was emi
nently fitting that this work be un
dertaken by the D. A. R., a committee
was appointed by Mrs. C. T. Nolan,
Acting Regent of the Fielding Lewis
Chapter, to secure a complete Roster
of the Selective Service men, and the
Volunteers and enlisted men from
Cobb County.
Where men have volunteered and
it has been found that from any dis
ability they could not serve, their
names are wanted and the reasons
for excuse.
The committee, consisting of Mrs.
John M. Graham, Miss Mable C. Cor
telyou, and Mrs. J. T. Anderson, urge
that these names, with addresses, de
partment of the service in which en
gaged, and names of parents, or
nearest relative be sent to the com
mittee (Marietta, Ga.) as soon as
possible.
MILL OWNER GETS NEW ~
Some of the owners of Southern
industral plants feel that they have
been made to carry their full share
of the burden of the war through the
income tax and excessive profits laws,
but one has been convinced that he
is being “let down” rather lightly
thus far,
The incident occurred in the diree.
tors’ room of a bank. The president
of a mill, in diecussing war finances
remarked: “I've paid the Government
845,000 income tax and I don’t see
how I can irvest very heavily in Gov
ernment bonds.”
‘i low much of the remaining 55
per cent of your income would have
acorued under business conditions
other than those now existing?” One
of his friends asked.
The mill owner seemed perplexed.
Ag all the men in the group were
friends the president of the bank
mentioned that the mill owner’s busi
ness had increased 35 per cent during
the past year, accordng to the bank
records.
“As a matter of fact,” his friend
remarked, “You have paid but ten per
cent on normal business. You haven’t
been hard hit at all.” i
The mill owner confessed this was
a new view point to him,
The owner of a large mercantile
house made a confession at this
point. He said his income tax had
amounted to $15,000° and he had
thought he had done a great deal, but
he realized now that he was doing
comparatively little.
The mill owner and the merchant
both pledged to invest heavily in the
Third Liberty Loan to keep their con
science clear toward the Government.
And the others enjoved a good
laugh.
The ecvele of morey invested in
Liberty Bonds is short and complete.
The people lend the money to the
Government: the Government lends
some to our allies: and our Govern
ment and our allies straightway
spend the money, or the greater por
tion of it, among the people of the
United ‘States. In some instances the
money paid in by wage earners on
one installment of Liberty Bonds is
paid by the Government to their em
ployers and by their employers paid
back to them in the way of wages
before the next bond installment is
due.
. .
The proceeds of the Liberty Loan,
including the greater part of that
loaned to our allies, are being spent
for American products—the products
of our factories, our farms, our mines
and other industries. In lending to
the United States the people are lend
fng to their best and largest customer.
