THE COUNTY RECORD.
THURSDAY YPRIL 10, 1919. j
In another column is published a
letter to the Liberty Loan workers
of the county from E. C. Lpps, the
County Chairman, which has been
mailed to each member of the Liberty
Loan Organization.
This organization has a record
second to none in the State and although
the drive for the sale of Victor}'
Bonds is looked upon by a few
~ IfA OllVA
Willi Millie nthat
the loyal spirit of the people of
Williamsburg will respond to this
call of duty in a measure commensurate
with the results of former campaigns.
In fact, we believe that the '
biggest results yet attained by lib- <
erty loan workers will be the outcome
of this effort if the working
members of the organization pull together
in this drive as they have
done in the past. They may not sell
as many dollars worth of Bonds as
on other occasions, in fact they are
not expected to. but in this drive lies
an opportunity greater than that of
raising revenue. Of course the bonds
will be sold for they are the most attractive
of all absolutely safe investments
and their terms arc easy.
But aside from their intrinsic value
it is. in these Victory Bonds that are
found "the ties that bind".
? The most of our Boys are home i
again while others are on the way, !
still amid the deafening cheer of
, welcome is the echo of many a sad
farewell, the last good-bye of the
heroc." who will focrver remain
"overthere". To their memory we
owe a "Victory Bond", to the principle
for which they died we owe a
personal sacrifice which a> yet. has
not been paid. i
It should be the highest ambition
of every citizen of Williamsburg ;
County to own a Victory Bond, but
especially to the heads of every family
and to the prospective heads of
every family should this sentiment
appeal. At least one bond should be
bought, not as an investment, not
merely a* an act of patriotism, not
for social, religious, business or political
purpose, but purely because .
of that inate American spirit which (
always rings true to the tune of pure
and unalloyed love for human liberty. ,
This is a duty which we owe to ,
the wonderful achievment of the <
Boys who are coming back, and to
i those who will not return from over
there. This is our last installment on i
the best debt that our Government i
ever contracted. Let us pay it up in
full and thank God that we were
permitted to take a part in settling. i
an obligation which means much to j j
Us and to posteritv. 1\

It is not the woman who is forever j

in her frantic attempts to always;
keen the hearth tidy and the wood-j <
work polished, and the carpets free;.,

There is more virtue in one sunbeam j
than in a whole hemisphere of clouds j
and gloom. j
:
Once upon a time, not long ago.
there was a man. who suffered from
cold feet while the "devildogs."
"doughboys" and "gobs" were hunting
the huns. the glow of patriotic
warmth kept his toes from being
frost bitten, but when the hun had
been run to earth and the bill for
guns, cartridges and bayonets had
to be paid, he became a regular
Gloomy Gus.
The above lines were sent us in
i 'Jt _
connection with victory loan pub'.icity
matter, by the organization of
the fifth -federal reserve district.
Xo'.\. what we want to know is:
''hov many of our citizens?men of
Williamsburg county have this!
"Gloomy Gussinc.-s" feeling, or cold
foot over the success of the next and
!a>t great Victory Loan Drive?
Really and truly we don't believe,
there is one. v. hite or colored. We are j
a!i too proud of the glorious work,
done by our hoys oversea.-*: we are:
too proud of the w ork so nobly be-1
gun not to stand by and see it prop-1
of y an-1 justly finished.
In the previous bond campaigns
Williamsburg citizens did nobly, and
for the sake of her sons who played
an important part in the greatest
victory ever accomplished by mankind.
and for the share of glory,
purchased for us bv their .-acrifices
on -ii; field of battle and victory wei
.- houM <io our utmost to make this
campaign the greatest success of J
them ui!, because it is the finishing J
touch to the greatest achievement
in the history of our people arid the
nation.
In this countv the organization
for the victory bond campaign is,
the same as in the last Liberty bond
campaign. Mr. K. C. Epps is county
chai rman.
The work among the colored people
in this victory loan campaign
will be in charge of Dr. Jas. A. Mason,
who so ably and acceptibly conducted
the Liberty Bond drives
among the colored people.
It is the wish of every patriotic
parent that his child shall stand in
the front ranks of the business worm.
To get these results, the teacher, the
narent and the child must work together.
Open mutiny with the school'
means hindrance to the child to attain
this high standing. There should
lie close unity. Consult freely on
these subjects which will largely determine
the welfare of the future of
the child. If your child is not doing
well in school it is your duty to see
the teacher and help her devise
olans which will remedy the evil.
Don't, don't, pour your wrath on
the teacher at the supper table in the
presence of the children.- It only
means that your children will reap
what you sow for them. They will
have no confidence in the teacher,
-ause trouble in school, and lose all
interest in learning. If the evil exists
in school see the teacher and it
will be made right.

I consideration in a musical
JL instrument is its ttnt. On its
tone-quality alone it can rise to preeminence,
or remain on the level

The phonograph is not one
musical instrument, it is a thtusand.
The myriad different instruments
and voices it is asked to reproduce
call for a tone quality and versatility
infinitely beyond the requirements
of other instruments.
