HALE SOUNDS WARNING
on WAR LOAN DANGER

the Pilgrims dinner given to the
Anglo-French bankers at Sherry's, q
remarkable demonstration was made
by the leading men OF the Equitable
Life Assurance Society. Joseph II.
Choate, the most influential of the
three trustees who hold in their hands
the destinies of that great society
subject to the will of General du Pont
in a public address, in which the
venerable man displayed extraordi-
nary feeling, said:
Constantly, daily and nightly, am
sympathizing with the allies. Lord
Reading 10 going back home with
$500, 100000 In his pocket. He has
dealt spiendidly with the American
people. And now ! hope that every
man, woman and child Of the United
States who has got hundred dollars
will invest It in this loan, and, what's
more, hope that this is only the first
instaiiment."
George T. Wilson, for forty years
employed by the Equitable, and now
director and second vice-president,
jumped to his feet at this juncture
and led an extravagant three cheers
for the King OF England and the
President OF France. Other officers
and directors of the company took
part in these demonstrations.
At the secret conference held In the
Morgan library on the night OF
September IL, the Mutual Life was
represented by it's president, Charles
A. Peabody. and its most influential
trustee, George F. Baker, chairman
of the First National Bank +"
On October II, Mrs. Olga H. s.
Walsh, In Chicago, filed suit for an
Injunction to restrain the Mutual from
investing it's trust funds in the Anglo
French loan. Mr.. Peabody, when
questioned about this, said: ~
1T would be entirely lawful for
use to invest $1O,00O,0OO, or any other
sum in the bonds within reason, il we
saw fit to do so. There is nothing
in the law to prevent our doing SO
without limit. The matter is under
consideration and it might be that we
would decide to take 100000 or
100000 of the bonds, as they are
doubtless a good investment"
Mr.. Peabody did not state whether
he had consulted his fellow trustees

below her knees. She will show the
top of her boots this season and some
of the boots are very high.
eff she wants to join in the latest
fad she will have to buy a rainbow
pigeon and carry it on her wrist
This viii mean that, since it would b.
rather awkard to ask the pigeon t
move every time she wanted to con
suit her wrist watch, she will have t
dispense with this ornament. In
stead she will wear an ankle watch

Birch Run Would Incorporate

A well attended mass meeting was
held at Birch Run, Tuesday evening,
the purpose of which was to crystalline
sentiment which has been growing in
the village for some time in favor of in
corporation under the state law. The
matter was quite thoroughly discussed
and another, meeting was set for Thurs
day, April 22, when further develop
ments are expected. The two thirst
parlors, which fill their appointed mis-
sion so thoughly, are at present source
of revenue to the township to the ex-
tent of $3.50. apiece, and if incorpora-
tion is accomplished this sum, or what
ever might be derived from that source,
would go to defray the expenses of the
village government. On the other hand,
many of the residents claim their town
is made the dumping ground for the
moral filth of other towns in dry terri
tory, and they feel that they ought to
have more adequate means of dealing
with the situation and enforcing order.
There are also public improvements
which could be secured under corporate
government which are not now obtain
able. OF course, there are those who
oppose the measure, so that the out
come is problematic.
