that mo better or safer investment
can be made in the world today.
"Of course no one but wishes this

getting around the fact that the farmer
is reaping richer harvests than ever
before in the history of this country,
and should be moro than willing to
give financial aid to the allies, who
are freeing the people Of Europe from
autocratic land owners.
"As an Investment, none better can
be offered. The bonds are tax free

Liquor and Automobile Accidents.

Lima-During the recent street car

for a number of days. The thirsty

saying these liquor pilgrims were re-

these wet towns.

perintendent R. J. Condor, of the Gin

"As l ride across Ohio, and see the
results of the splendid response of the
farmers of this state to the call of the
government for greater food supplies,
l am convinced that they will meas

may come to them.
"Now the call comes again, and this
time it is for funds with an appeal that
is as strong and necessary as the call
for food. This demand must be met,
and every man must do his part. The
government asks US not for q gift, but
for loan, with ample security and a
good rate of interest. And to this
latest appeal the farmers will, am
certain, respond as rapidly IS they did

Congress has inserted provision
in the food control law prohibiting
the manufacture of whisky for bever-
age purposes and given the President
the power to restrict or prohibit the
manufacture of beer or wine, if neces-
sary, to conserve foodstuffs, and also
empowering him to commander all
whisky in stock and bond for war
purposes if he deems such a step
necessary.
The Senate has voted three TO one
to submit national Proaibition to the
states.
These are a few OF the important
happenings in this country in the
drive against the liquor traffic since
Ohio voted two years ago.
This is some record for two yca"s.
In other countries the battle with
liquor has been vigorously prosecuted
and the great war has stirred the
world to realization of the waatcful-
ness and destruction Of the traEic.
This trend towards Prohibition
everywhere has been most marked
since the Ohio election in 1915. These
tremendous dry victories will arouse
the fighting spirit of the Prohibition
forces here in Ohio and there is moth
ing in them to encourage the wet
camp.

Of Them Due to Drink.

Youngstown-At the present rate of
arrests in this city, the total for 1917
will reach 10000, breaking all rec.
ords. Of these, $1,000 will be due di-
rectly or indirectly to drink, accord
ing to the Telegram Of that city, which
goes on to say:
"Manifestly, the saloon is growing
worse, in Youngstown and every
where else. To talk of its reforma-
tion is childish and absurd. 1t is es-
sentially evil and its results on So
ciety are demoralizing and crime
inspiring. 1t is high time the who:
business should be prohibited and the
public at large are more thoroughly
convinced of that necessity than ever
before. This is the reason why
Youngstown, Mahoning county, and

Gloves and Shoes.

There are rumors that shoes are
to cost less in the near future,
but there is little indication Of
this in fashionable footwear seer
in the shops here. The best so.
luton of smart shoe economy so
far lies in the use of spat-pumps
worn with spats. The first cost
is less and the wear obtained rath-
er greater than from gh-priced
high cut street boots.
Patent leather is favored this
season, whole high cut shoes of
it being the novelty of the new
showings. Cloth tops with leath
er foxings ccme in medium pric-
es. Leather tops remain tn e
choice of people who can afford
them, though colored cloth spats
are still considered very smart.
Gloves also soar in price, and it
is prophesied that we shall, by
another year, depend principally
on fabric gloves in silk and cot,
ton. Women are buying ahead
of their present needs in kid to
be sure of having the gloves they
like later. However, if all the
world wears woven hand cover
ings, we shall no doubt come to
like them as we'll in writer as we
do now at other seasons.
