If you have not already made your plans accordingly, do it now. + The fact that you have done nothing against the winning of the war is not enough; you should do something for it. Those towns which have been ' visited during the past week by snowstorms have quit talking about THE climate. The British have always been accused of being slow to take a joke and that's as much as you can say against them. + If it takes polk-berry juice to i convince the people that they ought to buy Liberty bonds, we've got the gpolk-berry juice. Two billion dollars are to bo j raised by War Savings Stamps. Which ; Is to say they're somewhat bigger than they seem. ? ? j To one at this distance It would seem that those Cherokee farmers j who oppose Liberty bonds have already said too much. ? If you have ever had any doubt as to whether Liberty bonds are good j J you should realize that they're good ! j; only so long as your money is good. tteL.-.- . ... t A BIG DAY?SATURDAY. The News would not overestimate, ither In importance, number of eople attending, or the possibility f selling bonds, the day that is to e observed here?Saturday. The atural instincts of an American and toward patriotism and we are 11 Americans. Let it be said in the eginning that the purpose of the elebration is not to nrv looao monov rom any Individual, but to show im who procrastinates the evil of is way. The purpose of the meetlg is to set in motion human mabinory to conduct a campaign to nlighten the people as to conditions hlch face the nation you love so ell, the necessity of buying Liberty onds in order that your governlent may have the wherewithal to luip the men who are fighting to reserve your home and your liberty, nd the home and liberty of your eighbor and your neighbor's neigh>r. This is plain talk, but it is facts, merica and her associates in the ar are not fighting for moneytary iln or for the acquisition of terrlry, but for freedom for the Deo cs of the world. They must win! jould they fail, America as a najn, American ideals will be desoyed, and, therefore, it is a fight r life or death that we are in. Thus is the necessity for Liberty mds. The News could not gamble, vyere of a gambling inclination, on the jather for Saturday. Let us hope will be favorable. Certainly this ell of cold and rain cannot last forer. It will pass, and again let us pe, before Saturday, when all of incaster county is a-coming to I wn. .Let us believe that the weathwlll be fovorable; let us say that will be, and remember that the lciai prognostications are no more I aranteed than our own. r The day is going to be a big one? holiday. The stores will be closfrom 10 to four; there will be ominent speakers, men who will t only say things about your gov- ] iment and about Idberty bonds it you ought to know, but who are r>d speakers and you will be glad hear thein. It is going to be the ? y that we tell the Kaiser he can-1 t come over here and set up a donion, putting the red-blooded men this nation under his bondage. . t that is what will be unless we "k up the government and furnish j _ I > men and money necessary to win , ? wn r ?
