Liberty Ponds or German bombs?
take your choice.
Bonds or bombs?which? Let your
patriotism answ'er in unmistakable
words?LIBERTY BONDS!
Come on! Buy bonds! Buy all you
can, then some more just to show what
a man can do when be is in dead earnest.
"I did not start the war!" Quite
true. Nor did we. The Germans
thrust it upon us by the violation of
every code in the book?murder,
rapine, brutality, beastiality. No, you
did not start it. What we are trying
to do is to stop it! We are buyinp:
bonds to back up our boys and help
them to crush the monster that, if let
alone, will destroy you!
Union is to have a hip Liberty Loan
, parade and speakinp on Friday (tomorrow),
bepinninp at 1 o'clock shaTp.
Jonesville is to have a like bip parade
and speakinp tomorrow bepinninp at
i 3:30 o'clock. We would have been
prlad to see these demonstrations held
( on different days, but it could not
i conveniently be so arranped. One can
| attend here, then pet up to Jonesville
1? j on the Carolina Special, which leaves
1 for Jonesville at 3:12 o'clock. We
j hope to be able to pet to both parades
j and both speakinps. It is a time for
!all people, patriots and faithful citizens,
to show their colors. True, it
| now seems that there is prospect of
' a pood day for plowinp tomorrow.
! However, we feel that it is even more
v important than plowinp?this manifestation
of patriotism. Let everyi
body come! >
i THE ONE REMEDY?BETTER PAY
FOR TEACHERS.
Tho attention of school trustees and
patrons of city and rural schools is directed
to the letter, in tips issue, of
David R. Coker, chairman of the State
, Council of Defense, in which a timely
plea is made, foj- the pake of the
, future of democratic citizenship, that
adequate salaries he paid school
i teachers, which appears to be the one
I
' remedy for existing conditions and to
, obviate embarrassment of the school
, authorities and the schools themselves
. in the near future.
Mr. Coker calls attention to the fact
that salaries of school teachers have
not kept pace with the rising prices
of life's necessities and, as a warning,
speaks of the tremondous demand for
young women, thousands of whom are
entering upon government work at
good salaries as thousands more are
taking the places of men in mercantile
offices and establishments. It is
reasoned logically that unless salaries
of school teachers are increased for
the next school year, another year will j
find thousands ninm e/?Vi/\rd I
more remunerative work. They arc
capable, and it would he unreasonable
not to expect them to prepare themselves
during the approaching summer
vacation for the places open and
waiting for them unless the schools
they are now serving lake iheir needs!
into consideration.
The remedy, as suggested by Mr.
Coker, if adenuat funds are not avail-;
able from taxation to provide hotter'
pay for school teachers, would be for
school trustees to raise by private'
f subscription from the school patron i
jr. sufficient additional funds for this
purpose.
x J No school should remain closed and j
no school should be taught by other
than competent teachers. The war
does not change the situation, except
to intensify the vital necessity o?
proper educational facilities for the
children of today who will be the men
and women of tomorrow, and who, in
the years to come, must bear some
of the burdens thrust upon the world
by this w*ar.
