THE LIBERTY LOAN.

This week the work of securing Waldo
county's share of the second Liberty
Loan begins. 1t is great undertaking
which will test the patriotism of our citi-
zens. In considering the Loan from a
strictly practical standpoint it should ap-
peal to all because, all things being taken
into account. it is the best bond invest
ment now on the market. This great Re-
public will not fall but will pay its inter-
est and principal when due while many
other bonds will be defaulted We have
first mentioned the above because it is
basic in all credit transactions, but there
are other matters which touch the pres
ent situation which are only in a slight
degree secondary to the main proposition.
When one of our citizens buys Liberty
bond he not only helps to defeat Germany
but he fortifes and strengthens his other
investments against the eXigencies of the
future. Not only does he do that but he
does something to defend his home. If
by inertnesS we make defeat possible all
bonds will become ''mere scraps of paper.
We shall be doomed to pay a staggering
indemnity to the enemy and after we be-
come financially exhausted and Prussian-
lsm has become strong by preparedness
made possible by our tribute, our shores
will be invaded by cruel, revengeful
and insatiate foe. Now and in the next
few months is the time for the United
States to strike with all her power against
the Kaiser, to strike with her army, he1
ships, her money and her courage, tc
secure the perpetuation of the freedom
won by the sufferings and the sacrifices
of the Revolution. These are the days
for heroic financial duties and deeds.

THE FAIR.

Next week the New Belfast Fair will
make it's first bow to the public, and a
special effort will be made to please and
sati sly This youngster has progress
sive and energetic ancestry full of public
spirit and enthusiasm, and, with proper
nourishment ought to develop into an
honorable and a useful manhood The
cit of Belfast and the towns in this Sec
tt on of our county are able, if they will,
to make as creditable showing in agrl-
cultural products and articles of domes-
tic making or preparation as any local
fair in the State can make, Ii favorable
weather could be assured October is the
best month for fair. The apples are
then colored, the vegetables have ma
tured, the harvest is well nigh over, the
pigs and young stock are larger, the big
races are over and better racing can be
had and the hurry of farm. life has some
what slackened. On several occasions
we have attended the Sagadahoc County
Fair, held in Topsham. This fair is al
ways held in October, and sometimes late

into fierce battle, and the Germans were
disastrously beaten, driven back and lost
many important fortified hills. Nearly
5000 German prisoners were taken and
they all seemed pleased, as they found
safety behind the British lines This adj
vance brought Gen. Haig to within six
miles of the above mentioned line of rail-
way. AS we 60 to press the news comes
that the British and French have made a
successful Joint drive and the lines have
been further advanced. If the Allies can
cut the Lille-Ostend railway the subma-
rine menace will be lessened and the
Hindenburg line will be pierced and prob
ably broken. The Germans are making a
supreme effort to stop the advance of the
Allies, but if the ground taken in this
last drive can be held the superiority OF
the Allied forces will be established in the
minds of all. A dispatch from Amster-
dam, dated Tuesday of this week, states
that Germany is about ready to make a
real proposal for peace. The losses by
submarine sinkings for the past week
have not been published but no gain is
expected. In the Eastern and in the
Italian war sectors there is nothing of
great Importance to record.

THE BOARD OF TRADE MEETING

Last Friday night the Belfast Board of
Trade held a meeting at the Court House
for consultation and an exchange of IDEAS
Although the weather was threatening
and there were fitful dashes of rain, more
than 40 earnest men were present. The
pendulum of industrial life like that Of
the clock has had its periodic vibrations
ever since we began to do business. Bel
fast has several times felt the disagree
able sensation of the descent through the
do wnward arc, and the exhiliration of
the upward swing, and doubtless will
hereafter experience many similar ex-
periences. Perhaps we can best express
the feeling of those present at this meet
ing by saying that this is not the time to
lament nor reCrlmlnate, but to unite to
en- courage, to forecast, to plan, to work
and above all to cherish the good things
which we have, as enumerated on another
page of this issue of The Journal. On the
dial of progress time is marked by decades.
The efforts of an hour or day are not
recorded, but the mechanism behind the
dial must do it's work INCREASINGLY. The
Board of Trade is a part of that me-
,chanism but the motive power lies in the
strength of progressive, loyal and en-
ergetic citizenship. Without that the
Board of Trade can do little. Its efforts
TO enlarge our city's industrial growth
must be encouraged and aided. In times
of depression prepare for success. In
times of success prepare for more.

DANDRUFF SOON
RUINS THE HAIR

Girls-if you want plenty of
thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair,
do by all means get rid of dan
druff, for IL will starye your hair
and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try
to brush or wash it out. The
only sure way to get rid of dan
druff il to dissolve it, then you
destroy 1t entirely. To do this,
get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most, II not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications
will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all Itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop. and your hair will look and
feel a hundred times better. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. II is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no
mater how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never
fails. adv.

Woman is most artificial when

star part of her romance with a
talent practiced by Eve and i'm
proved by each of her descend
ants.
In the role of woman I'm

for gorgeous costumes, for no
fond lover cares what his
lady wears; nevertheless, she
persists i'm painting the lily
and in applying rouge to the
rose.
There is an unfit about love
which sustains a girl on a mental
plane high above her ordinary
level. She may not know the diff
ference between Maeterlinck,
Malachi and malachite, but she
will appear to be posted, should
her adorer have literary tastes;
but If he hates book, she will
only pose as milady artistic, know
ing that 1t flatters most men to
be approved by girl of tempera-
ment.
II he happens to be poor, the
girl In love will let him know what
a fascinating hat she can trim for
81; but IL he is rich, she will
reckon only golf and polo among
the useful arts.
And all the time her wooing is
progressing. her temper moves
smoothly and sweetly over all
life's little rifles. She work won
ders with her voice, causing It tn
