Whereas: Prof. Whitehead has be
come an indispensable factor in our
educational and patriotic life and pos
sesses unusual ability to serve in the
interests of the community in this
great war period and is giving so
much valuable service to tho patriotic
activities of the community, and,
Whereas: a change in the supern

the highest interests of our school;
Bo It Resolved: That we, tho citi
zens and taxpayers of Red Cloud, most
heartily denounce all elForts made to
prevent tho election of Prof. I M.
Whitehead as superintendent of our
city schools as a most unjust and un
patriotic thing.
We therefore call upon the honor
able board of education to forthwith
elect Prof. P. M. Whitehead as super
intendent of schools for tho coming
year.
Moved and seconded that the meet

Come Across or
The Kaiser Will
Take your choice! Help Uncle Sam now or pay the kaiser lutor.
Wc haven't won this war yet, and if we lose it, you can imagine what
will happen. If it takes every single bpnre cent of our'nioncy. now to
win, it's tenfold cheaper than it will be if we lose.
Hut, investing your money in War Savings Stamps isn't giving
it's only Icndng your money to Uncle Sam lending it now when the
need is desperate nhen the money will hit kultiir the hardest.
Buy War Savings Stamps now for every .dollar Uncle Sam can
get now is worth ten next year.
You don't want our boys to face Germans with their bare fists
like the Russians did.
i
Money puts guns into our boys' hands bullets in their rifles
money saves lives, and stamp savers are surely life savers;
Tyv
Remember, you're giving Uncle Sam only the use of your money
for a while. That's letting you off mignty cheap. Others arc giving
their lives.
