While the supply in the u. o. is not lacking, it is now a question of digging and delivery. For esveral years past the ag gitatlon for legislation conduc ive to the development of the na tions watemowers ha a fore congress. belf styled "conservationists" have blocked every move and as a result, millions of horsepower on federal reserves in the west is running 10 waste either for lack of legislation permitting develop ment ur uecause sucn legislation as we have is not inviting to the investment of capital. ine present crisis illustrates the folly of policies that force the use of coal, whlh ia forever when once it is mined, mm wunnoia from use, water powers which are absolutely wasted unless used. used are injured in no way what ever. We should back 11 Ti iha nmin)l1 of national defense in its cam paign to save coal and put forth every argument for legislation permitting development of our wonderful waterpowers. Electricity ls the modern method of ODeratliii? trninn tat.. tories, farms, and heating house:.. aim u is used in numberless other ways. in addition to theR uses electricity will play a most important part in the defense of Our countrv and fnr that iaa son alone its development must ue encouraged. Let us all unit tn bain Do.,., ."black coal" and at the same ume aavocate policies which will permit utilization of our HmitleBb "white COal" nilnpn whniio mil. uvav UJU Hons of horsepower are now wasting to tne sea.

THE FIFTY DOLLAR BOND In issuine Liberty Loan Honda in a denomination as small as $50 the Secretary of the United States Treasury has mit it in th 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 service in other ways, but those who are denied the privilege of serving their I country in person have the privi lege of serving her by lending .their money to win her victories. But it is not patriotism alone that urges the buying of Liberty Loan I5ond3. Thrift and a wise ; economy in invest ing small sav ings commend these Liberty Loan Bonds to small investors. They nre safe,, and considering their tax-free qualily free from all Federal, State and local taxes (Inheritance taxes excepted' are free from any war tax thai may hereafter be levied, afford ing and abso'site net income of 3V2 percent, they constitute an Ideal investment for savings. Nor is there anv reason tnf waiting for a later bond Issue In the expectation of a higher rate of Interest being obtained, for the law provides that annnM such bonds be issued later, Lib erty ix)an .bonds may be ex changed for them at par.

I hey surely have nice warm climate around the Islands. I am getting along fine on tnis snip, i get along pretty well with the officers. I expect to be raised in rate soon. We have not had any pay day since the 5th of this month. I am going to try to send some money to tne uanK every month If I can. I Euess the Lincoln Cnnntv Bank would be alright.

What is he a fireman or a seaman, u ne's a seaman he's got my sympathy. But a fire man is alright. The engineer officer treats the firemen fine. I don't know where we go to next. But you can use the same address and I will get the letter alright. The mall is the first thing they send a mad after when we reach port. I will have a picture taken one of these days when in town. We coaled our ship this P. M. and most of us are going to town to night in a launch. There are 4 warships here now. We had a couple of days of rough weather at sea. The waves rolled clear over our main deck. I am no, in town and have a room for the night. I am with a friend of mine who works with me on tlj ship. He was a traveling sales man before enlisting. I would unite to see Arcnie get on the Marblehead although we now have a full crew. We walked around town to night until we got tired then went to a theatre, then to our hotel. I was pretty glad to get to walk around on land again after being out for 9 days. Our shlD Can'B Stav a WAV from nnrt very long, about two weeks, then it runs snort or supplies.
