WDMfcN Of WEST AGAIN CALLED TO THE COLORS By MRS. A. S. BALDWIN. Chairman Woman'« Liberty Loan Commute* of the Twelfth Reserve District. We have at the present time about two million men in Europe who must be provided with all that is »->.-es»ary to keep them in good spirits and eon dltton; and when their work shall have been finished, they must be brought home and Alemobiltzed The Govern ment must make good the contracts it has entered Into for toe construction of all war munitions, and for*food sup plies already bought. Having responded to the Govern ment's calls In the past, and having loaned our money ungrudgingly to hurry forward the men and supplies, and victory having come to us because /£= 4 * -s % On the Old Glauser place now owned by H.

All of the following w as bid in at foreclosure sale and will be sold to highest bidder on . MRS. A. S. BALDWIN of this, shall we hesitate for a moment to respond to the last call—the Victory Liberty Loan— when we can do so by pledging our credit, perhaps with some little personal inconvenience, sacrifice or small discomfort? The blcod of the young manhood of America is not now required. That was generously given before the arrni stice was sigoed. and now we may give thanks that no more will be taken. The credit and good faith of. our country is at stake. We bave won the war, and the cost Is small compared with what has been won. The men of the West with red blood In their veins vrlll not need to be appealed to. because they will subscribe to this last call of the Government as ungrudgingly as they did in the past. There are others, however, who may not be so keenly and conscientiously alive to the duty of re sponding to the Nation's call, and it Is to those that the women must direct their most untiring efforts. This last call is truly a Victory Loan What greater pride can men and wo men experience than in contributing to It? A Victory Bond will be worth more than Its price expressed in dol lars. Every one will oe a Badge testi fying that the holder has helped his country to fulfill its pledge to those who have been spared as well as those who have made the supreme sacrifice , MAR » The Following Described Personal Property THINK STRAIGHT This is a time for straight thinking. Make sure the other fellow is not talk ing drivel. Analyze his thought, don't follow i t He may be suffering with phraséologie hemorrhage. It is epi demic now adays like influenza and much more serious. For instance in regard to the Vic tory Liberty Ix>an and these fellows who thumb their vests, frown wisely, and say "L et the banks do it. They are bursting with money.” They are talking drivel. It sounds fine but It 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 it. There would, be no Victory Liberty Loan in the popular sense. But the govern ment knows be!t<»r than to let the banks do It. This Is the period of reconstruction right now. It is a period of many possibilities economically. One |>o*sl blllty Is Industrial depression. /)ne preventative of Industrial depression Is plenty of money at favorable rates 3f Interest to stimulate private enter prise. That means our banks m ist not be clogged with government se- îurities. It means that we can't af ford to "let the banks do It.” The people must do It—do it from their tamings, present and future. Think straight. Support the Victory Liberty Loan. 7 Hemp Raised by Convicts. Penitentiary officials at Lansing con ducted an interesting experiment or: an island In the Missouri river by planting 50 acres of hemp. The Leaven- ' worth Times reports a bumper crop was raised. Experts declare it may b*. used in making binder twine at the penitentiary plant. The hemp may be substituted for the slsnl import* d from Yucatan, in making twine. The result , would be a big saving In cost to the wheat fanners.—Kansas City Star. Try a Tricorn. Stop to think how- often a certain ^ erk in the bakery department of n i certain downtown store helps you to decide on a round marshmallow cake • or a square chocolate In preference to a three-cornered devil's food. “ Look at the tricorns left again” snickered the white-aproned diplomat. “ Never catch me rootin' for trl's; too ^ a m to wrap.”— Indianapolis News 28 Head of Cattle Consisting of 10 head of Milch cows giving milk, alfgood grade cows.
