"SAVE AND PAY UP"
The war is over, but not paid for.
Some have subscribed for bonds and failed
to pay for them. Would the war have been
over if our boys at the front had been as
slack?
The Victory Loan will soon be called must
be subscribed and paid. .
The country and its people are too heavily
in debt to indulge in anything not essential.
Let's get out from under the load.

land which was not harrowed after
the drills. Where the"' ground was
harrowed it was left in a smoother
condition and there was less protec
tion against freezing.

painfully behind the mules,, tearful
ly beseeching them to "whoa," but
could never get quite near enough '
to grab the lines. He Anally head-'
ed them off by crawling out of
the drifts and making a detour.
