You may be too old to enlist for military service but age
is no barrier in subscribing for a Liberty Bond. Besides,
it is your patriotic duty as an American citizen. See
your banker today. He will explain.

THE FIFTY DOLLAR BOND.
In issuing Liberty Bonds in a denomination as small as
$50 the Secretary of the United States Treasury has put
it in the reach of almost every American citizen to do a
real and actual service to his country.
'. Not all can fight, not all can render personal services iu
other ways, but those who are denied the privilege of serv
ing their country in person have the privilege of serving
her by lending their money to win her victories.
. But it is not patriotism alone .that urges the buying of
Liberty Loan Bonds. Thrift and a wise economy in in
vesting small savings commend these Liberty Bonds to
small investors. They are safe, and considering their tax
free quality free from all federal, state and local taxes
(inheritance taxes excepted) and free from any war tax
that may hereafter be levied, affording an absolutely net
income 01 a l-z per cent, they constitute an ideal invest
ment tor savings, , , ;
Nor is there any reason for waitiner for a later bonri
issue in the expectation of a higher rate of interest being

Portland lias voted $3,000,000 for grain elevators.' The
state has voted $6,000,000 for good roads. This means
tlhlat public improvements 'will .continue in "spite of the
war. This is the proper policy to pursue in- public as well
as private business. The election is encouraging. Port
land is going ahead. Oregon is going ahead., Like' an
aeroplanes she will soon be flying with her own wings.-

The election of Georgo.L. Baker as mayor of Portland

thing that they ai'o using, has gone up in price. Wages'
have gone up, materials, supplies, etc. The United States
should grant the railroads what they ask for. -It is not
good policy in war times to cripple the railroads, which
are straining every nerve at the present time to be of ser
vice to the country. ;

these are the wise ones, .tliose who go for good advice to
persons who are really competent to. give it.
The Portland Election
There is to be industrial neace nnd rmblic. semiritv with
Mr. Baker as mayor. The public voted for him for that
reason and in that understanding. It voted ao-ainst. T
