WHITE COAL VS.
BLACK COAL
A campaign is on by the Coun
cil of National Defense
coal. 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

Hons of horsepower are now

not apply the same reasoning to ather

of these, goods are doing a largely In
creased volume of business.
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.

Dear father:
I received vnur letter to-flav
as we just got in from the sea
last nignt at xu o ciock. we leit
nere on tne zutn ror tne Ha
waiian Inlands When wn were
within 2 days of the Islands we
met the German shin which wn
went after and brought it Into
port nere. 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. If you
see iiawKins you can tell him
about it and you let me know.
I am very glad to hear that
Frank is having his eyes cured.
I WOUld like to cpa Arrhlo nn thiu
ship. 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.
I have heard It said that we're
going to San Diego next for tar.
get practice but am not sure.
Well I will close for this time
hoping to hear from you soon,
Your son, Al.
o
Frank Priest was up from
Newport Tuesday.
"Cured!
Mrs. Gus Griffith, of
Everton, Mo., writes: "I
suffered for three years
with various female
troubles. My life was a
misery. I was not able
to do anything . . . bear
ing down pains In my
back and limbs, and head
ache . . . weak and nerv
ous. Dr. recom
mended tardui to me."

"When I wa3 on the
sixth bottle", she contin
ues, "1 began feeling like
a new woman . .. 1 am
now a well woman . . .
1 know my cure is per
manent for it has been
three yeais since I took
Cardui." Thousands of
women, now strong and
healthy, who once suf
fered Irom women's ail
ments, give Card-u-i the
credit tor their good
health. Try it, for your
troubles.
