THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM

AND SDN-TELEGRAM

Put Your, Dollar In Uniform The call of the president to mobilize the sinews of war is the real martial trumpetting, but the soldier

is omy a cipner without the dollar back of him.

Even as another home is asked to put . the stalwart son . in, uniform, so your home is asked to put the dollar in uniform and to enlist it in the cause of Liberty. A dollar volunteered to Uncle Same in the War for democracy is more shrewdly conceived than a dollar levied upon defeated ' America by a vic- ' torious Kaiser. . It is. not necessary that the Cen t r a 1 Powers , should actually .overrun this country. It will suffice if ' they 'make a separate peace with disor- " dered ' Russia, starve the Eng-

, lish with the submarine and crush France' thus isolated. Then victorious Germany would make peace with us only on terms of an enormous indemnity which we must pay to redeem the trade of the world and prevent the further crushing of our allies. . t You did not invent this war. ' Nevertheless the United States is in thi3 war up to the neck. There is no turning back. You must win or lose. - The subscription of this $2,000,000,000 Liberty Loan is in the hands of the people. The-resources of the nation spring from the small units of wealth. It is idle to expect the wealthy men, or the banks to make this enormous loan, for this would mean merely the conversion of the people's bank deposits already in the commercial service. This loan is vital and must come from the hands of the people themselves, perferably from savings other than bank deposits, preferably from new savings, from new economies, from new earnings, and from hiding places. The soldier must 'be equipped. Your dollar is needed to put food in his stomach.' uniforms on "his back, and guns in his hands and to maintain him fit on the firing line. If you are not of the age and of the fitness to do your bit at the front, you can at least help support one -soldier by buying a Liberty Bond. Not less important is' it that the business life ofthe nation continue, the industry and the food production. Not less important is it that there should be empleyment and means of livelihood for the workers behind the soldiers. Not less important ii it that you should continue to have an income from which to save. Be shrewd; be thrifty. Buy a $50 or a $100 Liberty Loan bond. Learn a new chapter in thrift from the European nations, and be a backer of your threatened country, while getting the 3 per cent, interest. Take a $50 or a $100 mortgage on the United States and help to keep the flag flying.

er's theory of an absolute control of charity work in the Whitewater district. Both Melpolder and Giles have this in common they are autocrats and will not tolerate opposition to their plans. , The man that crosses Melpolder or. Giles is marked. Ramsey had to pay the price for his independent attitude toward Melpolder. When the paid agent of public philanthropy last winter tried to bulldoze this principal he met with a rebuff that sent him scurrying to Giles for support.

The citizens of Richmond are not so dull that they cannot see why Giles fired Ramsey. The principal was too big a man to fit into the organization which Giles is building up. Ramsey did not fear the Czar of the Richmond schools, and so the Czar used Russian methods to get rid of him. ' r It is a crying shame that a man who has done the noble work Ramsey has done in one of the hardest sections of Richmond must fall before the machinations of Giles and Melpolder. It is a disgrace to our community that a sterling man cannot be retained because a superintendent of schools, who last winter opposed the giving of free lunches to hungry children, wants to vent his spite on a defenseless man.

. Compare Giles and Ramsey if you want to see

a glaring contrast. Ramsey saw distress and suffering among his pupils. He saw little boys and girls coming to school hungry, with insufficient clothing to keep out the blasts -of winter, unable to keep up their school work because of the poverty of their parents. What did he do? He did what a MAN would do. He tried to remedy conditions. Giles saw these very same little children going into the Whitewater school. What did he do? Tried to keep a band of noble women in this community from giving them sufficient food, tried to check the philanthropic work of a principal who had love and sympathy in his heart. Giles has never answered the charge made against him on this score last winter.

Giles Dismisses Ramsey - Principaf Ramsey of the Whitewater school must leave his school because the Giles-Melpolder faction does not like his independent attitude. Ramsey refused to bow down before the dictatorial mandates of Giles, who espoused Melpold-

This is the kind of man that is superintendent of the schools of Richmond. Only this type of man would crucify a principal whose heart went out in sympathy to little children. . Not Ramsey but Giles ought to be kicked out of the Richmond schools. The patrons of the Richmond schools ought to rise in revolt against a condition that permits a

man of the Giles type to preside over the destinies of the system. He has forfeited every claim to the job he holds. His presence in this city as school superintendent is not desired.

If Giles fired Ramsey sO that the school teachers who depend on him for their jobs will be frightened into tame submission to his plans and will not dare to enter a voice of protest, the city of Richmond is perpetuating a tyrannical autocracy that ought to be crushed. Every, teacher may ponder the fate of Ramsey. It means that they must bow in humble submission to Giles, or be made to walk the plank.

We never could understand this man Giles. His opposition to the efforts of good women to provide nourishing food for little children and his close relationship with Melpolder are facts that no one in this community can understand. His letter to Ramsey is one of the most drastic and curt dismissals that a teacher could receive. We hope that the school board will hand him his walking papers in terms equally to the point. He deserves no consideration.

OXFORD FARMER INJURED

Diet, Exercise or Death! An eminent medical authority writes that most of our city folks die of a tbickeuing of the arteries or of kidney disease. The kidneys become clogged and do not filter the poisons from the blood, and one trouble follows another, high blood pressure damages the heart, arteries and kidneys. Usually its danger signals are backache, pain here or there, swollen feet or ankles, rheumatic twinges or spots appearing before the eyes. "The very best remedy 'is this: Eat meat but once a day or not at all. Plenty of outdoor exercise, and drink pure water frequently. . Before meals lake a lit tie An uric, the great uric acid neuA trali zer that is easily obtained at the drug store. When you have dizziness, chills or sweating, worry, or dragging pains in back, try this wonderful enemy to uric arid, which Dr. Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y., discovered and named Anuric.

Everywhere under the sun

wherever roofs are laid Certain-teed stands for these two things: Efficiency Economy

CERTAIN-TEED roofing is the most efficient and economical type of roof for factories, office buildings, farm buildings, garages, etc, because the first cost is less than that of metal, wood shingles, or tar and gravel This is particularly so now, because of the present high prices of some of the materials. CERTAIN-TEED costs less to lay than any other kind of roof. It will not rust, is not affected by fumes, gases and acids, coal smoke, etc ; it is light weight and fire retardant. Every rain washes it clean ; and it does not melt or run under the hot raj's of the sun, nor can it clog gutters and down spouts. Certain-teed Roofing is the best quality of prepared roofing. It pays to ret the best. The only difference between the first cost of a good roof and a poor one is in the materials the labor, freight, etc. costs the same in both. As CERTAINTEED Roofing is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 1$ years according to thickness (1, 2 or 3 ply) it will be in splendid condition years after a poor quality roof has to be replaced. Tor residences. Slate Surfaced Asphalt Shingles hare all the advantages of CERTAIN-TEED Roofing, plus artistic beauty; not bulky, and are uniform in weight, quality and appearance. They need no paint, are pliable, eliminate waste and misfits, cannot curl, buckle, rot or crack. Guaranteed for ten years. Investigate CERTAIN-Tf ED before deciding on any type of roof.

fflE LATEST STYLE CHALMERS JUST RECEIVED; Every Inch a Quality Car This Chalmers of today is a car any man millionaire or miner proudly may own. For it not only acts quality, but looks quality. 8500 more buys no more quality than you can get in this Chalmers. Possibly more car yes, but more quality no. And why should anyone want a heavier car? These are days to be sensible in purchasing. Remember a heavier car costs more to run.

It is well, to bear in mind that $500 less E laces you in the dangerous position ot uying a skimped or "starved" automobile. To pay $500 less is to postpone the day when you will own a quality car. Just let us punctuate a few remarks about the Chalmers. Take the wheelbase 117 inches. Plenty of size there. Then the 5-inch frame. No weaving of body or frame now in crossing car tracks or turning a corner. Instead, severe rigidity so severe that squeaks, rattles or chassis noises are not audible. Underneath the rear seai a heavy, formid able rear axle. Overhead a Pantasote top that comes close to finality and with four bows; not three. A tilted windshield with plate glass. A front seat that is only 13'i inches from the floor. A rear seat that is only 14 inches. Tell that to the women of your home. Better brakes 2 inches larger, if you please. And when you push down with your right foot you get results.

A larger steering wheel, dustproof bearings in the front wheels, all wiring encased in flexible armored tubing so that a short circuit in your ignition, or lighting, or start ing is well-nigh impossible.

All Chalmers cars are six-cylinder cars

And each lamp now controlled by an individual fuse. Then, too, the automatic lubrication of the engine controlled by the carburetor throttle so that the engine is getting oil directly in proportion to its load. Any car that can do a mile in 38.1 seconds or at the rate of 94'a miles per hour as the Chalmers did on the beach at Jacksonville, Florida, which set a new time for cars of the 230 cubic inch class answers the question of speed even for the worst '"fan on the subject. This time was made on May 4, 1917, by a Chalmers. It was of course stripped for racing purposes. As for flexibility one need look no further. A car that traveled the highest traffic mileage ever reported in twenty-four hours through the heart of Chicago on high, or a car that webbed its way through Detroit's busy traffic at the rare low speed of 2.9 miles per houi for twenty-four hours without stopping the engine but once is a real performer. This is just what this Chalmers did. Come down to our show rooms and view the beauty they have drawn into this ear. And then get behind the wheel for a little spin. You'll want your initials on the door inside of a mile.
