It is cleaner, newer, fresher and prettier than it has been for several years. The many new homes throughout the residence districts with new paint, and here and there a freshening up of older houses, have all added beauty to the town. In addition there has sprung into life a pride in beautifying premises. New lawns have been planted and older lawns re newed, shrubbery planted and trees trimmed and set in vacant places. And, not to be overlooked are the many Victory gardens showing up in rows and well prepared soil. And with all, as if in the nick of time, Spring bounded suddenly forth, with warm sun and frequent showers, to bring out quickly the leaves on the trees and to enliven the lawns and gardens. It is well worth mentioning in this space. Our human ef forts blessed with the kindly beneficence of nature encourages our spirits in these days of travail. Our hops are renewed by the display of energy all about us and we will go on to the great achievements set plain ly for our nation in the days to come. ECHO NEWS ITEMS By Mra. W. H.

GOOD CARE OF HATCHING EGGS IS PROFITABLE THE 2ND WAR LOAN DRIVE IS ON IN AMERICA! Sunday is Easter. It commemorates the res urrection of the Savior. May the day restore to greater life and force the teachings of the Great Teacher. In the earth encircling battle fronts the principles of the Christ | are being defended and fought for, and the lives of men are being consecrated to the simple truths of the Master. In these democracy j found its birth ; not tyranny and aggression. Temples and | shrines have fallen, men are I dying, and Sacrifices are be ing made at great cost for the Christian ways of life,. but our faith still stands as we bow at the foot of the Cross and wait for the stone to be rolled away. W inner T ake A ll 7 There is one stark and simple fact about war which you had better get straight... and quickly, too THERE IS NO SECOND PLACE IN A WAR—IT’S EITHER WIN OR LOSE! This war is being fought for tremendous stakes ... ... for your life and your liberty. ... for your church and your children. ... for your freedom and your future. Wendall Willkie has writ- | ten a book entitled “One World”. It is reported a best seller with 300,000 copies the first five days after pub lication. It contains his re flections of his trip around the world, filled with politi cal economic philosophy ap plicable to the varying phas es of life around the globe. It is very likely to be worth reading. And it's WINNER TAKE ALL. Don’t forget that for a minute. The winner will dictate whether tomorrow you shall be a free citizen of a free world, or a helpless serf to a ’’master race.” The winner will dictate whether you shall live and prosper under the Four Freedoms, or toil hopelessly in the darkness of a "New Order.” The winner will dictate . . . because the winner takes all. The winner takes all. All you own, all you hold dear. The winner is being decided right now .. . today ... this very minute ... on battlefields all over the world. Will you stand idly by ... or throw all your weight on our side? "THEY GIVE THEIR LIVES—YOU LEND YOUR MONEY" The weight of mighty tanks and planes. The weight of thousands of guns and millions of shells. The weight of billions of dollars... 13 billions which your country asks you to lend during this Drive. Buy Mora War Bond» Today Your country wants to borrow every idle dollar you have—every dollar except what you need for the barest necessities of life. You’ll have to give up some luxury or comfort which was dear to your heart. You’ll have to postpone some pleasure which you had been eagerly anticipating. But what of it? Your sons and brothers and husbands are dying out there — fighting your fight. Surely it is no sacrifice to lend your dollars while they are giving their lives. They need your help. They need the weapons your money can buy. If one of the War Loan volunteers calls on you...greet him with open pocket-book. Remember, Uncle Sam’s goal is 13 billion dollars in April. Don’t wait to be asked. Go to your nearest bank, in vestment dealer, broker, Post Office or issuing agency and lay your money on the line. Remember, it’s an in vestment you’re making — an investment that pays a good return and insures a happier future for you and your loved ones. So lend up to the limit. You’ll sleep better for it.
