O'er the ram-parts we uatched, were so gal-lant-ly streaming? And the rock-ets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof that our flag was still there. Chorus. Oh! say, does that star-spangled ban-ner yet wave O 'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? On the shore dimly seen thro’ the mists of the aeep, Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes. What is that which the breeze, o’er the towenhg steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam, In full glory reflected now shines on the stream. Chorus. 'Tis the star-spangled banner: Oh, long may it wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave. And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion, A home and a country showld leave us no more? Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps ’ polution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave. From the terror of fight or the gloom of the grave. Chorus. And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave. Oh, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand, Between their loved home and wild war's desolation; Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav’n-rescued land Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust!” Chorus. And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

KREBS HOGUE NUPTIALS No. 27 . J If you wish to be patriotic on the Fourth of July this year, don’t drink lemonade or ether sweet drinks, or eat candy. This new way of celebrating the National holiday is suggested by the Food Administration, which is making an urgent appeal just now for the sav ing of sugar in all possible ways, to make up for the sugar losses resulting from submarine sinkings and to help build np the necessary reserve for do mestic and factory canning. In order to save the sugar that would otherwise be consumed at picnics and celebrations on July 4 through the me dium of lemonade, orangeade, etc., the Food Administration has decided to re fuse all permits for sugar to be used for such purposes on that day. CONVERSION Of LIBERTY BONDS Liberty bonds of the first and second i*>ne- and thoee obtained by converting tionds of the first issue into 4 per cent i>onds can i»e converted into 4l< per cent Liberty bonds during the six months’ period b> ginning May 9 and ending November 9. 1918. The new bonds will be dated May 9, 1918. After November 9, 191,8, no further rights of conversion will attach to the 4 per cent bonds, either the original bonds of the second loan or thoee ob tained by conversion of bonds of the first loan All of the 4Jt per cent bonds are nonconvertible. Bonds for conversion may be surren dered at any Federal reserve bank or at the Treasury Department. Registered bonds must be assigned to the Secretary ot the Treasury for conversion, but such assignment need not be witnessed. On conversion of registered bonds, I registered bonds only will be delivered, ! neither change of ownership nor change I into coupons being permitted Coupon bonds, however, may be con verted into registered bonds upon re- I quest. Coupon bonds must have the May 15 or June 15, 1918, coupons de tached and all subsequent coupons at- , tached. Coupon bonds issued from con- I version will have only fonr interest I coupons attached, and later must be exchanged for new bonds with the full I number of coupons attached. The government is minting several million dollars* worth of pennies every day. Tn time you won’t have to wait so long in front of the “How Many” windows for your change. The trouble with a lady socialist's contention for the right of the last word is that she never gets through i saying it An Eastern woman says that fat men make the best husbands. Some body ought to get even by announcing that fat women make the best wives. MT. SCOTT MEN ANSWER CALL TO THE COLORS The following men from Mt.
