Letter to All Township Chairmen. July 23rd, 1917. Mr. J. L. Napier, Jordan, S. C. Dear Sir: When Germany began preparation for this great war she provided for every contingency and for means by which all of the resources of the Em pire could be utilized to the fullest against her foes. She had vast quan ities of food stored, and means of :lirecting and controlling the produc bion, distribution and conservation of the necessary food stuff. It is to the credit of this Nation that we are unprepared and that all :f the industries of the Nation can not be handled and autocratically con trolled to the whims and ideal of one muan, because such a condition, al though necessary in war, is inconsist ent with the liberty of which we boast in time of peace. To supply this lack and provide for a mobilization of the industrial re sources of the Nation there has been formed a Voluntary Association of patriots under the name of the Coun il of Public Defense. The idea upon Drives Out Malaria, Builds Up System The Old Standard general strengthening tonic. GROVR'S TASTJISS chill TONIC, drives out Malaria,enriches the lsloodand builds up the sys tem.

You have been appointed Chairman f this Council of Public Defense for your Township. This is an acknowl ,dgement of, and an appeal to your patriotism, and you have been ap pointed because of the feeling that you can be trusted to combine your afforts with those of :others for the :ommon good. The first thing that we have been requested to do is to urge planting )f food stuffs. America is now the ;ranary of the world. If famine ;trikes and cripples any of our Allies t means that more American blood nust be shed. Second: Our wasteful habits must e changed. We must realize that it s not fashionable to waste food, and ;hat a public service is rendered by hose who save when they are rich ough to waste. Those who conserve losely every particle of food (because food means more than money as sol Hers cannot eat money) are serving heir country. Third: There are various other mat ers in which the Council has helped md will co-operate with the Govern= rnent, such as the Liberty Loan, The Red Cross, the urging of enlistment, the detection of Slackers, the report ing of spies. But the most pressing matters at present are those relating to food stuffs. Will you not organize your Town ship and endeavor publicly and pri vately to cultivate a sentiment for the production and conservation of food stuffs, the need of which may be hereafter communicated to us?

M. deeply deplore the loss to our selves and his bereaved family, yet, we bow to the will of our Heavenly Father. Now be it resolved by Sum merton Lodge No. 105, That, in the death of Brother Har vin the lodge has lOSL a most loyal brother, and the community and state a most worthy and valued citizen, who dying in mature life leaves a long record embracing the record of a valient soldier defending his coun try, a business career of rigid hon esty, and active support of every cause looking to the uplift of his community. That, the lodge extends to the be reaved family its fullest sympathy, and joins with them in sorrow for the irreparable loss that has come to them, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family of our de ceased brother, and shat the same be spread upon the minutes of our lodge and a copy sent to our county paper.
