Our Country Right or Wrong f- * THERE ISN'T MUCH TIME :There isn't much time in which to conclude the Victory Loan, put Gulf county over the top and make it the great success we all wish the drilke to become. But there is enough time. for us to get down to business and put this. final campaign oyer the top in.a manner fit- ting to the public-spirited and patriotic citi- zens of Port St. Joe and Gulf county. The Victory Loan should have the undi- vided attenition.and support of all bur citizens. It does not, matter if we are running ahead of the quota or behind. For us there can be no limit. 6r point at which- we can say: "Well, that's that." We must continue to drive on until the final day with no thought of the money paid in for Victory. Bonds. Let us set for ourselves the task that was assigned to our boys. They kept on. Accom- plishment of one objective only leads to an- other, and harder, objective. They continued on and on until the final victory. This we' must do in the Victory Loan. There is no al- ternative: . Then, too, the Victory Loan is needed to. provide education, retraining. and,. rehabilita- tion of our wounded now. There is a more personal side, of course.,The Victory Bonds, Series E, at maturity, for example, pay then owners back $4 for every $3 invested. So put aside those plans to purchase un- essentials. Instead buy Victory Bonds. They are essentials-essentials for our wounded and for our own futures. HUNTERS PIQUE LANDLORDS There seems to be an unusual hostility de- veloping between the hunters and the farm- ers. Ppsting is becoming increasingly com- mon, and farmers are findisg much fault with the sportsmanship of the so-called sportsmen who throng the fields during the hunting season. Many farmers are heard to complain about the impudende and recklessness of hunters who invade fenced land and proceed to scat- ter shot recklessly about. This glaring disre- gard of the right of property is quite inexcus- able. The .fields belong to the owner and should be secure from molestation. The birds, too, in a sense belong to the owner or tiller THESCTAR.PO~RTST .IJOE.GULF C.OUNTY.FLORIDA 1 **- 0 1 Ar, -V % 1 0 1. vr., %-s --- 1 .1 of the land, since he harbored and fed them and feels that he has a prior right to them. Real sportsmen will ask permission to go into fenced fields for game, and will respect the privacy of the home and farmstead; Scattering of fire is a sore spot with many farmers and foresters. It is not too much to expect that hunters shall observe the areas hunted over Anld keep them under view until it is sure that there is no fire left. But the most grievous feature of the prob- lem is the matter of shells. Imagine the indig- nation of a farmer who went to town last summer to get shells to shoot hawks and other pests, but found none. Then as the hunt- ing' season nears he goes to get a few shells to shoot some of his own birds for Thanks- giving dinner and finds "no shells." But lo, when the hunting season opens his fields are overrun with hunters with shells to burn. How do they get them? The obvious ex- planation is that dealers have favored then friends-naturally town people for the most part. Or a set of "semi-loafers" who frequent the streets see the shells first and raid the supply, so that the farmer again finds them, "fresh out." The result is a growing tendency to post land against hunters. If these gentlemen find themselves hampered in their sport by posted notices, it would be well for them to look for the cause near home. In some communities sportsmen are organized, i ot to. combine against the landowner and farmer but to corr- trol their own members and keep them;, and the whole field of sports, within the bounds, or fair play to all.-Holfhes County Advertis.er. ON THE FENCE Among the mildly' offensive, if harmless, species of human life are those who aire conf tinually twixtt will and will not.", They .are in an intellectual state that Lowell. once de- scribed as "kin o' hangin' ioun' an' setting' oni a fence." This intellectual: fuzziness grows greatly in the period iimmediatclv before an election; Life then is a. ceaseless process oi matching however with on-the-other-hands. Particularly adept practitioners can carry water on both shoulders without spilling a drop. But when the cat has jumped and the win- ning candidates emerge, there is an electrify- ing change. Judicial detachment becomes glee. Ponderous counterbalancing statements are abandoned as the fence-sitters let it be known that their heart was with the success- ful candidate all the time. These Monday morning cheer leaders never completely lose their heads, however. Comes another decision and the fence is still handy. There they sit until the issue is decided. There is no particular harm in these fence-sitters, except in their noisier moments, when they climb on the band wagon that others have started rolling.-Hartford Courant.

A F-TAMA42 One of the brightest facts of the war effort is that many billions of dollars have been saved and are now in pjdssession of the people. EigIty-"" five million Americans have bought War Bonds and are hanging on to them and have seventy-five million bank accounts, too. These savings can mean much to the future welfare of our country and ourselves. They will permit us to spend more of our current in- come once goods become plentiful again. The savings themselves can be used to tide us over emergencies and for such things as new homes. Thus the savings of the war years and the months immediately ahead can contribute to demand for goods, busy factories and jobs later on. Save now while goods are scarce and the threat of rising prices continues. Buy Victory Bonds.
