Come In -and Talk It Over La Grande National Bank Whether order will be restored in Russia depends up on the soldiers and the workmen. Thcv have their council which is taking a decisive part in the affairs of govern ment. Tire calling of an international socialist confer ence in Stockholm on July 8 is part of the program of the Russian soldiers -workmens council. The Russian pro pagandists have definitely determined upon a program of peace without annexation. Thus Russia renounces its dream of expansion and abandons its threat of driving out the lurk Jroni Europe no doubt Russia s "attitude is a serious embarassmeut to the Allies. The only way that Germany can be weakened in Central Europe is to create an independent Poland, to restore Serbia to a strong position, to reestablish Roumania, to restore Alsace Lorraine to Prance and to reestablish Belgium. If Russia grants a separate peace .to Germany, she will be virtually joining Germany's cause and would be considered an ally of the Kaiser. The whole world is playing a gigantic and costly game of eliess. None of the players is moving fov peace, except Russia. The weakness of the latter may force the Allies to abandon their desires to obtain a huge indemnity from Germany. If this happens it will be a drawn battle and the present war will not accomplish much toward world peace. O Your country needs you. If you can't go as a soldier, vou can help with your money.

It seems as if the world has almost all the troubles that it can bear. Perhaps one of the duties of the Allies will be to establish a stable government in China. O America is in the war and only one outcome can be con sidered possible by Americans. That is victory. To achieve victory the country must furnish the sinews of war. With victory will come peace and therefore each purchaser of a Liberty Loan Bond may be considered an. agent of peace. O WHY "LIBERTY LOAN?" The $5,000,000,000 bond issue of ttiis year is named "The Liberty Loan of 1917" because it is to be a loan from a free' people to be used in freeing the world.- It is the loan of a liberty-loving people to be devoted to the establishment of liberty in Europe and on the high, seas. ' - ..... ... It is the loan of .the great democracy of the New World: to redress the wrongs and support the' cause of the democ racv of the Old. ' 0- Sarah Bernhardt is like a perennial flower.
