(By BOOTH TARKINGTON.)
When wo Intrust our Having to
Lank, we like tu know tliul If u sound
Imnk. We feel safe thru to leave our
niiMiey In charge of (hat bank mid Its
otticera. They will use It lu vartoui
ways which seem good to them, but we
will set It nil hack, If the bank I
sound. Yet no hunk In the United
States of America cau be as Bound at
the United States Itself. Therefore,
when the United States government
turns banker, the safest place for our
money to be put Is In the hands of
this government. Anybody con sea
that, without bothering to look twice,
Uncle Sam himself will take cure of
our mouev. and we'll tret It back. We
know that. Ills word Is so good that
we can get the money back whenever
we need It, because his bonds will sell,
any time, for just ubout what we pay
for them. A few years hence, of
course, they will sell for more thuu we
pay for them.
During the time that we leave our
money with Uncle Sum what e call
the Liberty Loan he pays us Interest.
Well, I've had a higher per cent than
he pays not for a loan, because I
had to pay taxes that reduced the per
cent to 3U but on Investments. Ouee
I made an Investment that puid 19
per cent, but It only paid It once, and
then the fellow who talked ine Into
It left town without telling anybody
good-by. I've found, since then, that
I can't get much better than Uncle
Sam's rate In the long run. When I
think I can, usually the factory has to
have new boilers, after my first divi
dend comes In, or the ore "Isn't quite
the quality we had reason to expect,"
and I begin the long squirm to get
out with something reasonably near
what I put in. No ; nowadays I think
the government rate is about all I'm
going to get from any Investment
which I place with regard to the In
vestment's margin of safety. There
fore I get all I can of Uncle Sam's
Liberty bonds because they are to
day, of all the possible Investments
In the whole world, absolutely the
safest. Nobody except Uncle Sam will
or can give us his rate and the same
absolute certainty that we'll get our
Interest paid promptly and the princi
pal when it is due.
That's the selfish side of it; we can't
do better with the money for our self
ish selves. The other side of It Is that
Uncle Sam uses the money for our own
V)ys In France and our boys on the
seas--our boys whose hard and ter
rible dally work Is done so gayly ; and
death always with them dropping
from the air above them, ready to
strike up at them from the grouud. or
from the water beneath them. They
bear this for us, that our Ideal of free
dom may not be lost forever and that
we shall not become the Prussian's
servant. A good Interest rate and
safety for the money, and aafcty for
our Ideals, and for our liberty that's
what we get when we Invest in the
Liberty loan !
WORDS AND DEEDS
(By WALT MASON.)
I may use language till I make De
mosthenes look like a fake. I may rear
up some nine feet high, and tell how I
would bleed and die, If I were not so
old and gray and crippled up and full
of hay. I may denounce the foreign
foe and tell how gladly I would go to
wield a shotgun in the 6crap and shoo
the kaiser off the map; but If I think
more of my wad than of' u. country
and my God, the things I say won't cut
much grass; my words are merely
sounding bruss. Our Uncle Sam is
needing men; he's needing rhino by
the ton; he can't conduct a high-class
ecrap without a lot of dough on tap.
To raise thti dust he asks all lads to
lend him all their surplus scads, to buy
his bonds security the safest ever
man will see. And if I do not gambol
up, as gay and frisky as a pup, and
buy the bonds till I go broke, my loyal
spiels are merely smoke. Oh, boys,
most any tin-horn skate can work his
Jawbones and orate; most any hick
can chew the rag and say nice things
about the flag; but when we come
right down to tacks, the patriot who's
smooth as wax Is he who comes, co
ardent soul, for Liberty bonds to blow
his roll.
They Bayoneted the Wounded.
A returned Canadian officer, lo tell
ing of an engagement In which he had
taken part said: "We retook the
trench from which we had been driven
and found the linns hnd bayoneted all
our wounded when they had to get
out" Those are the fellows your by
has to fight over there. Give him your

Twenty-Eve, "years "ago the General
Electric Company was founded
Since then, electricity has sent its thrill
.through.the whole structure, of Jife.
Eager to turn wheels, to lift and carry;
to banish dark, to gather heat, to hurl
voices and thoughts across space,, to
give the world new tools for its work
electricity has bent to man's wilL,
Throughout this period the General
Electric Company has held the great
responsibihtiesand. high ideals of
leadership..
It has set .freecpurolresearch.
It has given tangible form tolihven'
tion, in apparatus of infinite precision
and gigantic power:
.And it has gone forth, co-operating with
every industry, to command this unseen;
force and fetch it far to serve all people..
By the achievements which this com',
pany has already recorded may best",
be judged the greater ends its future;
shall attain, the deeper mysteries it
yet shall solve in electrifying more
and. more. of the world's work.
