WHO SAYS IT?
Slogging through the mad of
France,
Camping in tbe rain;
Hiking in a frozen trance
Down some German plain:
“Fall in!"—hear the sergeant yell.
Far from home and clover;
Tell me. who the bally bell
Said the war "was over?”
Chow
for breakfast—slum
for
noon—
Who says men are free
While the bugler’s foolish tune
Pipes the reveille?
“Right dress!”—hear tbe sergeant
buzz
From Mainz across to Dover;
Tell me who the bell it wuz
Said the war "was over?"
Cleaning up a mass of wire.
Stained with clotted blood
Where the big trucks bog and mire
In the winter mud;
Full of filth and fleas and fuzz—
Cannoneer and drover.
Tell me who the fat-head wuz
Said the war "was over?”
—Oran tland Rice.
THINK STRAIGHT
Thia is a time for straight thinking.
Make sure the other fellow is not talk­
ing drivel. Analyze his thought, don’t
follow it. He may be suffering with
phraséologie hemorrhage. It is epi
demie now-a-days like influenza and
much more serious.
For instance in regard to the Vie-
tory Liberty Loan and these fellows
who thumb their vests, frown wisely,
and say "Let the banks do it. They
are bursting with money ” They are
talking drivel. It Bounds fine but ft
isn't good sense
Nor is it good
economics, which amounts to the same
thing.
If the government thought it was
wise to "let the banks do it,” the gov
ernment would let them do H. There
would be no Victory Liberty Loan in
the popular sense, But the govern
ment knows better than to let the
banks do ft.
This is the period of reconstruction
right now. It is a period of many
possibilities economically. One possi­
bility Is Industrial depression. One
preventative of industrial depression
is plenty of money at favorable rates
of interest to stimulate private enter­
prise. That means our banks must
not be clogged with government se­
curities. It means that we can't af­
ford to "let the banks do It." The
people must do it—do It from their
earnings. present and future.
Think straight.
Support the Victory Liberty Loan.
The banks used to buy United States
bonds bearing 2 per cent interest be­
fore the war. That's how good the
credit of the United States is.
The 1100 you put into a Victory lib­
erty Bond will be worth *125 plus in­
terest when prices settle down. A dol­
lar 1* worth what you can buy with It.
Better have the bonds of the United
States in the hands of 30.000,000
ordinary citizens than concentrated In
the hands of a few rich men. Think
of that when Uncle Sam offers you
a Victory Liberty Bond.
Don't think you have sacrificed be­
cause you may be paying for your in-
tarast-bearing Fourth Liberty Loan
Bonds These fellows back from France
legless, armless or sightless don't think
they have sacrificed. They simply
think they did their duty.
The Victory Loan coming in April
is the last Liberty Loan. Then tbe
war la over for yor. It will be still
going on for 1,000.000 Americans in
France.

MR. MOTORIST
WHY YOU SHOULD DEMAND
SCIENTIFIC LUBRICATION
NOT MERELY OILS AND GREASES
one thing is to vitally important to the life of your car as correct
lubrication.
Ninety per cent, of all engine trouble is due to faulty lubrication.
The engineers who designed and constructed your motor are fully
awsre of this fact.
In the instruction books, as issued by the leading automobile manu­
facturers, they insist and demand that proper attention be given to lubri­
cation.
Should the owner fail to heed this advice, he is bound to encounter
motor trouble of a serious nature.
Motoring will cease to be a pleasure.
Proper lubrication means mechanical vitality.
