It is cot suffi' dent to subscribe for a Liberty Bond, or such small amount as ia our Judgment our idle means . may seem to justify. It is neces sary for aa to pledge or mort gage our income and wealt-h ac cumulations for at heast a six months' period, buying the greatest amount of bonds which " we by any possible means can ' care for during this time. Many of os will be obliged to borrow as long long as the war lasts, but even that is a glorious op- portunity, and is not sacrifice, - but protection protection for . tiiose whose lives are at stake, protection for those who must stay at home, the sanctity of - their wives, their daughters, the 1 preservation of homes and prop ' crty. and the evasion of slavery , which would surely be our lor if we were a conquered nation by our brutal, cruel foe.

C OUTLOOK IS DARK FOR XHAS PARCELS But Chief Postmaster Has Given Up All Hope Yet Not Just what will be done about Christ mas packages for the A. E. F.? .That's the big Question the chief j.-ostmaster down at Tours is trying to thresh out. The chief likes Christ- t mat packages just as well -as anybody does, and he has used up xaany sheets of good bond paper trying to figure It out. If every man In the A. E. F. is al lowed a five-pound package for Christ mas from home, it would reauire 700 cars a day for ten days to tTanport the gifts from the base ports to tha ultimate consumers in the S. O. S. and the Z. of A. The railroads of Prance are doing their level hest these days to supply nd feed the allied armies, and a spare ear is almoBt a thing of the past. But if there is any way of delivering Christmas packages to the A. E. F the chief postmaster says he is going to find It. Under the prewnt conditions, horn ever, such prospects look dark.

Commanding General, Central Department, Chicago. 111. Following telegram nas oeen receiv ed : "There was never a more critical time in the history of the war than this present week overseas. American valor and efficiency are carrying the banner of triumphant democracy with resistless force toward German soiL The ardor of the fighting line must not he cooled and the wonderful initiative and spirit of our soldiers must not be dulted by any failure to carry the fourth Liberty Loan victoriously over the top. The people at home must f-bow that they are as resolute as the soldiers at the front are brave. No influence is so potent in its stimulat ing effect on the people of our coun try as the example of the men with the colors. Let every American sol dier and every' American officer do his duty not only by subscribing himself but by urging those at home to Kub scribe. Baker."

If you cannot go out to them, you can fight for them, over here. Smash open the way for them with howitzers and big guns. Send them am munition, tanks, airplanes, rifles, cloth ing, food Help to keep them victorious. You can lend as fearlessly, as unself ishly, as they fight. That is your job as a part of our war machine. OF COURSE you would "like to be there; They don't need you yet or you WOULD be there.
