AMERICAN G|F I TO ENGLISH
 WAR WAR FUND l ........

LIVERPOOL, May 21. - An Ameri- can citizen now living in New Orleans but formerly a British citizen in LiV- erpool, has sent the Liverpool Cham Der of Commerce check for $2,5OO to be sent to Premier David Lloyd George as a gift to the British nation. In an accompanying letter he says: "l should like in return letter signed by MT. Lloyd George, stating that l have made this gift. to put in my safe, so that my children may know that their father was also willing to make a sacrifice for his country"
 In acknowledging the gift. MT. Lloyd George says: 'I am deeply touched by the patriotic spirit which prompted you to make this sacrifice at a time when the mother country is so vitally in need of all support. l can assure you that we at home are thrilled at the way our friends across the sea have come forward to give us their best in our hour of trial. It Is not only soldiers and sailors to whom our thanks are due, but also to those non combatants who have so generously given of their assistance"

LIBERTY BONDS SUBSCRIBED BY
 CORDOVA BANK

The First Bank of Cordova has
 needed the call and subscribed for
 $5O,OOO worth of Liberty bonds, which are gilt-edge securities, and over 5000
 banks of the United States have made application for these bonds. Backed as they are by Uncle Sam and draw ing three and one-half per cent. they will be negotiable at any time.
 People who have money cached away in safe deposit vaults or other hiding places, should not fail to take this opportunity of putting their money to work for the government. thereby helping to restore peace as quickly as possible.
 Even with only hundred dollars Tor two hundred dollars to spare, any. one may help out to that extent. No loan of one hundred dollars will be considered too low. provided the de- nominations are found to be as low as that, and persons with these small amounts should register at once as to |the amount of bonds they desire.
 For those who are too old to offer their services to the government for military service. or for women who have few hundred dollars saved up, this is the grand opportunity to show patriotism.

PU UbL|C PARKS NOT ID CLOSE
 ACCOUNT WAR

WASHINGTON, May 21~- When asked today whether the national parks are to be closed to visitors dur ing the season of 1917, Secretary Lane stated that the persistent rumors which have been current for the past few days, particularly in the middle west, that such action was to be taken by the interior department, have abso- lutely no foundation--in fact. All of the parks are to be opened at the usual time.
 The secretary believes that the en- trance of the United States into the war will not materially affect western tourist travel. and expressed the con- viction that the national parks will be quite as we'll patronized this year as they have been during each of the past two years, when upwards of 400,- 900 people visited them. He pointed out that it is even more important now than in times of peace that the health and vitality of the nations citizenship be conserved, that rest and recreation must materially assist in this conser- vation of human tissue and energy, and that the mountainous regions of the national parks offer opportunities in abundance for thoroughly enjoying a vacation of long or short duration
