Whitt Whtttlings.
Whftt, Texas, Jan. 1.—Christmas of
1918 has come and gone and many
were the sad hearts at this V time.
Our loved ones have been taken frotji
among us in variobs ways; some
mothers are grieving over the boys
who will never come again, who gave
their lives for their country and her
people; some of us are sorrowing for
the dear little children bereft of a
mother’s love and care; some are
heartbroken because the old compan-
ion has outdistanced them in the race
of life and gone on into the “sweet
bye and bye” to await the coming of
all the loved ones. Christmas has
surely this year been a time of heart-
ache and heart-break with many of
us. The vacant piace at the table,
the package that need not he sent this
year, the thought of the loving heart
and willing hands that had always
planned for us before, but cold and
silent in the city of the dead, is al-
most more than poor mortal can bear,
but with all the sadness, all the cloud
and bitterness, there is the right in
the mountain of sorrow that gives us
the rainbow of hope, in the peace
that has been declared between the
nations which stops the terrible de-
struction of life and spilling of pre-
cious human blood.
Prof. J. N. Johnson, J. N. Johnston
Jr. and wife and Ben Johnston of
Newcastle, came down’to spend part
of the holidays with friends and rel-
atives here and at Weatherford.
Mr. and Mrs. John A. Buster and
three children of Mt. Pleasant, spent
part of the week with their parents,
G. N. Buster and wife.
Prof. N. E. Buster, wife and daugh-
ter, Frances, of Fort. Worth, were vis-
itors at the home of their parents,
Mr. and Mrs. G. N. Buster.
Mrs. J. R. Reynolds and son, being
with her parents, and E. B. Buster,
wife and son living here, made a fam-
ily reunion of the Buster family, a
pleasant and happy ojie.
Claude Bradley, for several months
stationed at San Diego, Cal., came in
to visit his parents the past week.
Mrs. P. M. Johnston and daughter,
Miss Ethel, of Krum, visited relatives
here during the holidays.
1. N. Johnston and son, Clayton, of
Aledo, were Whitt visitors last week.
Miss Violet Heasley of T. W. C.,
Fort Worth, was the guest of her
grandmother, Mrs. Vick, during the
holidays.
Miss Gladys Martin of Paris visited
homefoiks last week.
D. W. Thomas had a brother and
family of Fort Worth as visitors dur-
ing the holidays.
H. E. Grantham of Dallas visited
his three sons at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. J. N. Johnston last week.
Mrs. E. C. Zellers and son of Au-
thon, visited her parents, Dr, and Mrs.
L. A. Lindsay, last week.
Our teachers, Miss Woolsey and
Miss Arterbum, after a visit to their
homes are in their school rooms
again.
Geo. Vestal is making considerable
improvements on his property in
south Whitt.
We understand Mr. Simpkins has
bought the Mrs. Beare property.
Mr. Bradley wijl soon have his new
home completed and it will be quite
an addition to the town.
I tvonder how many of us had a
white leaf in the twrelve pages of the
book of 1918 when it was finished,
closed and sealed so far as we are
concerned? 1 trust we may live bet-
ter lives, have purer thoughts, do
more g»od deeds in the year 1919 than
we did in this past year. I wish for
each and everyone a happy, prosper-
ous 1919.

THE WAR IS NOT OVER
THE COUNTRY NEEDS ITS PATRIOTS NOW
MORE THAN EVER BEFORE
Because several essential matters have yet to be attended to.
For one thing we have not yet made peace with Germany, and
there is no tel ing what amount of police work may have to be
done. Germany has no proper government, and revolution and
opposition mav be met with at any time. An armyof oyer two
million men and about a million men belonging to our sea forces
have to be paid, fed, transported and then returned home. Enor-
mous government contracts for supplies cannot be repudiated,
hut the goods must be paid for in full. Our great sihup-bui.lding
activities designed to make us at least the second greatest carry-
ing power in the world must be carried out at a cost of many
millions of dollars, to the ultimate advantage of every business
man in this country. Our allies, if they need money, must have
it.
To draw back now and to refuse to spend money would be
to place ourselves in the position of a business man who having
slink an enormous amount of capital and erlort in a business,
quits just at that moment when the business is on its feet and
is about to pay dividends.
HOW THE GOVERNMENT WORKS.
It is really not a question of whether or not we desire to
spend more money—we MUST do it. A word of explanation as to
the manner in which the United States Government collects and
spends money will make this matter perfectly clear. When the
war started, the Government contracted for goods to the value
of many hundreds of millions of dollars without having the
money to pay for the goods. The Government then borrowed
from the banks on Short Term Certificates of Indebtedness the
necessary money to keep matters going and then repaid the banks
out of the First Liberty Loan. This method of finance has been
maintained ever since; the Government always being in dt '*t. It
is a fact that nearly all of the Fourth Liberty Loan money has
already been spent and very soon the Government will be spend-
ing the money which you must supply in the shape of subscrip-
tions to the Fifth Liberty Loan.
GOOD TIMES COMING.
We hope, and with good reason, that after the close of the
war, we shall find ourselves with an enormous international bank
account, with the people of Europe owing us possibly five hundred
million dollars yearly in interest alone on our Loans to them,
that we shall find ourselves with a magnificent merchant fleet
which will carry our goods promptly and cheaply to every part
of the world, and that the demand for our manufactured products
will be so great that we shall have an era of prosperity unknown
in the history of the nation. It takes capital to conduct business
and now is the time for every sensible business man to put by
money for use during that period of activity and prosperity that
we look forward to in the near future.
“ PATRIOTISM AND GOOD SENSE.
There is no better way of taking care of this money than
by investing in Liberty Bonds. Every dollar so placed is a splendid
investment and the placing of it constitutes an act of the truest
patriotism.
THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT OF ALL
Is the fact that all of our sacrifices, including those of our
noble dead in France will have been in vain unless we finish the
task which we have undertaken. We have poured out our blood and
treasure in order that we may ensure to ourselves and the world
freedom, democracy and happiness. Having won the right to
institute these principles on a world wide basis, shall we now draw
back at the very moment when our object is within our grasp?
It is unthinkable.
READ WHAT THESE MEN SAY.
These men representative of what is best in the business
life of the community.
Hon. W. P. Hobby, '
Governor State of Texas.
“I am apprehensive that the citizens of this State might
overlook their present and future obligations to the Government
incident to victory. It is hoped that holders of Liberty Bonds
will not place them immediately on the market, but that they
wvl continue the conduct of their business affairs on a war basis
holding themselves in readiness to further finance the Govern-
ment and to refrain from doing any act which m'jght impair the
value of outstanding Government securities.”
Jas Callap’regident of e Cattle Raisers Association of Texas.
Menard, Texas.
“The country is not restored to normal conditions by the
signing of the Armistice, nor is the drouth-stricken area
restored to normal by reason of recent rains. The people should
be implored to preserve their patriotism, economy and industrial
endeavors to the end of supporting our Government and them-
selves.”
Hon. W. P. Hunt,
Governor of Arizona.
“The people of this State and elsewhere will speedily come
to a realization that the sacrifices the allies have made will be
unavailing unless the reconstruction is in accordance with true
democratic principles. Those principles necessitate a direct re-
sponsibility by every individual in the Government, a responsi-
bility which can only be met by continued retrenchment including
the holding of all war securities, foregoing luxuries until ever\
soldier has returned to his home and above all it is necessar>
to maintain production wherever possible and to convert wai
industries into normal peace activities. The sacrifices that have
been made must not be followed by domestic chaos.”
Hon. R. L. Williams,
Governor State of Oklahoma.
“Citizens must not make the mistake of thinking the war is
over. Remain,ng tasks of the war—demobilizing of armies ami re-
turning to normal industries of millions of soldiers and laborers iii
war factories—demand patriotic co-operation from every citizen
Additional Loans are to be. floated. It is unpatriotic now tc
throw bonds on the market needlessly. The next few months of
effort will be the real test of patriotism. Real patriots will obey tht
requests of their Government leaders just as cheerfully as the>
obeyed them a year ago.”
Senator Morris Sheppard,
Washington.
“Absolutely essential that it be everywhere understood that
sacrifices and restrictions are needed to keep the Government
properly financed and our soldiers clothed and fed. Any attempt
at this time to throw off all restrictions and resume normal con-
ditions might have serious effect on our entire economic and busi
ness foundations and fatally impair our ability to make certain
the glorious fruits of our great struggle for human Liberty.”
Hon. R. G. Pleasajit,
Governor of Louisiana.
“It is incumbent upon us as alert citizens and lovers of libertj
and nationals stability to uphold the Government financially anc
in every other way just as we did during the active period of the
war. There'should be no heavy dumping of Liberty Bonds upoi
the market nor plunging in any manner along business lines. Le
our people be conservative, careful and frugal, that we may b-
prepared to meet any eventualities.”

Are You
Open-Minded?
The average American
is open-minded.
American business is con-
ducted by true Americans of
vision, open-minded men who
believe in their country and strive
to meet their country's needs.
The men in the packing industry
are no exception to the rule.
The business of Swift &
Company has grown as the na-
tion has progressed. Its affairs
have been conducted honorably,
efficiently, and economically, re-
ducing the margin between the
cost of live stock and the selling
price of dressed meat, until today
the profit is only a fraction of a
cent a pound—tco small to have
any noticeable effect on prices.
The packing industry is a big,
