Statements of Gorman prisoners havo convinced French military critics that tho roal ubjoctiro of tho great German offensive was Paris, and that so far from expecting checks which would make Amiens tho goal of bloody and mudeclslvo battles, tho Teutonic high command sont Its forces forwnrd propared for rapid advances In open1 warfare. These plans wero, however. . badly upset, nnd after fifteen days! fighting tho Germans have not opened tho road to Paris, are not llkoly to succeed, and have suffered a trem endous loss of men.

THE American boy who goes to war gives up the position which means so much to Kis future, or the littUT business which has just begun to show promise of success. He severs home ties; gives up home comforts; leaves behind parents, friends, wife or sweetheart. He faces the probability of being obliged to take up life anew when he returns; of losing all the advantages whicli years of hard work have won for him. " 1 He faces the possibility of coming back in capacitated for earning a living, and of being dependent upon his friends or upon charity. He faces the possibility of never coming home at all. Facing these thing3, he goes to France to fight for us who remain safely at home -and when the 'moment 'comes for him to go over the top he GOES! - What will he think, how will he feel, if we complain because we are asked to make a few sacri-. fices for him sacrifices so insig- ' m'ficant when compared with his? Show him that to invest in Liberty 4 Bonds is not a SACRIFICE but a PRIVILEGE an appre ciation of his sacrifice! And When You Buy Buy! t ST This Space Paid For and Contributed By th Business Men of North'PIatte whose Names ap pear under other Liberty Bond advertisements.
