Senator Ollie Nj. James has
received his first rundown by
the administration in the APP
pointment of Percy Haly to the
position of Collector, held by his
friend Ben Marshall, of Frank
fort. Senaor Beckham s faction
of the Democratic party has been
managed by Percy Haly for sew
enteen years, and it is quite nat
ural that he should want to re-
ward him and incidently have
him in a position to play poll
ties Senator Beckham claimed
the right to remove Marshall as
an obnoxious political enemy and
handed Senator James one by
providing him with the same kind
of handicap.

Buy n Bond To-Day.

. edmond need not rest under any mis-
~ apprehension about the sale of Liberty
loan bonds in this city. The bonds are not
being sold In sufficient numbers or in suf-
fcient amount TO meet the city's obligation
or the governments need, and Richmond, in
common with the rest of the country must
rise to this opportunity OF high patriotic
service The time for investment passes
fast. 1t ends on Friday. Buy bond
to-day!
This war Is not to be won unless the
people Of America enlist all their energies
In the nations cause. Fighting is not every
thing. Not blood only but money in
ceaseless stream, must be poured out, II the
right is to prevail For ships, for food, for
munitions for uniforms, for hospital sup
plies. for the pay of our soldiers and the
assistance of our allies, must provide.
The Liberty loan is exactly what its name
implies-a loan made to Liberty which
Liberty will restore. We have but one real
choice. We may pay for winning the war
or pay for losing it, and the latter cost will
be infinitely heavier than the former. If
democracy is defeated on the battle fields Of
Europe, 1t is likely to be defeated also on the
battle fields OF America. Certainly, we
shall be able to keep war away from our
shores only by yielding q crushing indemnity
to victorious autocracy.
The purchase of Liberty loan bonds is the
easiest service any of US can render and the
easiest we are asked to render. 1t involves
sacrifice. OF some luxury without
which we are better off, The bonds, free
of all taxes save inheritance taxes, have be-
hind them tie wealth OF the nation The
security is perfect. They are interchange
able at par for any bonds bearing a higher
rate OF interest the country hereafter may
issue. The interest now paid is as good as
or better than that Of the savings banks
The bonds will be readily salable, as q matter
OF course. Should an emergency arise in
the life of any purchaser his bond holdings
will be accepted by the banks as collateral
for loan, or the bonds may be turned into
cash.
They may be used to answer the call of
charity The Red Cross for example, has
announced its willingness to accept them in
lieu of money contributions to its treasury.
To-day is Red Cross Day, when the people
Of Richmond will be asked to open their
pockets to this invaluable agency Of mercy.
Those who desire may give to the Red Cross
bonds instead of cash-and be certain of
fcrvent gratitude.
Most of us cannot afford to give to the
Red Cross $50 bond, but there are
few Of who cannot afford to buy such
bond. The banks make easy the way. En-
ployers are expressing their willingness to
assist their employees. He who answers the
call of patriotism answers also the call OF
thrift and, while serving his country. as
sures his own future and makes himself
larger figure In his own community. Buy
a bond to-day.

Restoring the Academy

IT HAT is noble and patriotic work the

of the Academy OF Sciences and Fine Arts
of Richmond. founded here in 1885, when
France and America, in an earlier alliance,

tinguished service in the Revolution, who
established the Academy. There is ad-

provide funds for the Academy's restoration
by inviting gifts OF Liberty loan bonds.
The influence of French art, and particular
