Guard, which every Young Soldier should promptly learn by heart, con- tribute, as has been said, more than anything else, perhaps, toward bring ing him to a realization of his re- sponsibility. The Orders, which. he should repeat to himself from time to time on post, are as follows:
 ITO take charge of this post and all Government property in view.
 To walk my post in a military manner, keeping always on the alert and observing everything that takes place within sight or hearing.
 ITO report all violations of orders T am instructed to enforce.
 'To repeat all calls from posts more distant from the guard house
 ITO quit my post only when proper Fly relieved
 ''To receive, obey and pass on to the Sentinel who relieves me all orders from the Commanding Officer. Officer of the Day, and officers and non-commissioned officers of the Guard only.
 ITO talk to no one except in line O. duty.
 "In case of fire or disorder to give the alarm.
 ITO allow no one to commit a nuis- ance on or near my post.
 "In any case not covered by in- structions to call the Corporal of the Guard
 ''To be especially watchful at night and, during the time for chal- lenging, to challenge all persons on or near my post, and to allow no one to pass without proper authority"

NEW BRrrAN,s- HELPING HAND.


 This is an excusable pride, the pride of New Britain in having over subscribed to the Liberty Loan of 1917. Having been allotted some $1,500,O00 worth of these bonds IS the amount approximately measuring our strength, the American Bankers Association must now revise its esti- mate by more than half a million dollars. New Britain was called and not found wanting.
 There is great satisfaction that belongs to all those who purchased Liberty bonds, no matter. of what denomination. For the most part those who purchased them could not buy them outright. These bonds will have to be paid for in weekly or monthly or quarterly in- stallments. Thus the men and wom- en who have responded to their coun- try's need will at the same time reap the benefit of saving. Dollars and cents that were formerly thrown away in foolish pastime and sport will now be saved and put away to go as payment toward the Liberty bonds Az the hours speed, this saving will become manifest until ono dne day each and every purcaiassr of ., Liberty ln.,~A .a~..A~y

posssssor, in full of tidy sum Of money. represented by the greatest security in the world. the United States government.
 It is not given to- every man to be able to fight for his country. It is not given to every woman to go forth on the battlefield and nurse the wounded, the sick. and the dying. At the same time everyone is not able to put away stated amount of money fly burdens, known by many, have prevented their, purchasing of IAb- erty bonds. Those who did so arc in- deed in the fortunate class. They have helped themselves while at the same time they have gdven material aid to the government in the conduct of this war.
 F That the people of New Britain have lived up to the traditions of the city, and the state, is a source of qualification to all those who take an interest in the growth and devel- opmeht of this community. Never yet has the call gone forth but what the people here have heartily re- sponded. And the calls have been many and frequent. Hardly has one request for money been issued then there follows on it's heels another. Because of our cosmopolitan popula- ton we have been asked to help al- most every people on the face of the earth. We have done so. and in good measure. When the call came for our own we could have done nothing more, nor less, than see this enterprise was subscribed to in mag nificent fashion.
 We may be pardoned then for feel ing the thriii and the joy that como with a good work we'll done. But the work is not over by any means. We have purchased our Liberty bonds. We have other duties to at tend to, and, in attending to them in just such spirit as we manifested in helping float this loan we will gain added joy. The Liberty Loan is a mutual benefit in that we shall reap the harvest we have sown in dollars and cents. Other gifts froln us will not carry . compounded in terest as formulated and prescribed by banking institutions. Charity is its own reward. and the return to the giver will be a spiritual oonso- lation realized in knowing that a duty has been done, and we'll done.
 Therefore. we start anew today ready for further calls that may be made upon us. In . world of misery and suffering we have been spared. We are in the midst of plenty while others in far distant countries <se starving. There is no famin9 6x dearth of food, clothing CT shelter here. In this thought weemaQ. ind deep consolation for our lot n nfc and thank a Divine Providence for being able to help where help is needed.

Independence Bell.

A There was tumult in the city.
 In the quaint old Quaker town, And the streets were rife with people Pacing restless up and down; People gathering at corners,
 Where they whispered each to each And the sweat stood on their temples. With the earnestness of speech. As the bleak Atlantic currents
 Lash the wild Newfoundland shore, So they beat against the state house, So they surged against the door, And the mingling of their voices
 Made a harmony profound Till the quiet street of Chestnuts
 Was all turbulent with sound. Twill they do it?" Dare they do it?" Who is speaking?" What's the news7' What of Adams?" What of sher- 70, God grant they won't refuse!" Make some way there!' Let mo
 nearer!"
 I am stifng!" stide then: When a nations life's at hazard
 We've no time to think of men!'' So they beat against the portal Man and woman, maid and child; And the July sun in heaven
 On the scene looked down and
 smiled;
 The same sun that saw the Spartan Shed his patriot blood in vain, Now beheld the soul of freedom
 All unconquered rise again. A1oft that high steeple
 Sat the bellman, old and gray; He was weary of the tyrant
 And his tron-sceptered sway; So he sat with one hand ready
 On the clapper of the bell. When his eye should catch the signal Very happy news to tell. See! see! the dense crowd Quivers
 Through all it's lengthy line, As the boy beside the portal
 Looks forth to give the sign! With his small hands upward lifted. Freezes dallying with his hair. Hark! with deep. clear information. Breaks his young voice on the air. Flushed the peoples swelling murmur. List the boys strong, joyous cry! "Ring!' he shouts aloud; "rtne!"
 grandpa!
 Ring! Oh. ring for Liberty!" And straightway, at the signal,
 The old bellman lifts hand. And sends the good news, making Iron music through the land. How they shoutedl What rejoicinRi How the old bell shook the air. Till the clang of freedom ruff1ed
 The calm gliding Delaware! How the bonflres and the torches Illumed the nights repose. And from the flames, like Phoenix, Fair Liberty arosei> That old bell now is silent,
 And hushed it's iron tongue, But the spirit is awakened Still lives-forever young. And while we greet the sunlight
 On the Fourth of each July, We'll ne'er forget the bellmn, Who. 'twixt the earth and sky, Rung out our Independence,
 Which pleace God, shall never die!
