strongest stories Of business life that
Thomas FL. Ince has presented on the
Triangle program IN some time.
Dorothy Dalton is starred at the
head of cast that includes Charles

ingston and J. Barney Sherry. Back
of the Man" recounts the history of a
youth of brilliant prospects who let's

eyes opened to the real worth of the
woman he had neglected makes the
big thrills IN a cleverly constructed
plot.

PATRIOTISM AND THE PoCkErBooK.

IN OKLAHOMA CITY there are bank deposits represent
ing the huge sum of $JoOWO00 Just how many de-
posltos represented by that of money is not
known to the public but it is known that q good many
thousand persons of this city have funds local financial
institutions.
There in national banks alone in the United States
FIFTEEN MILLION, SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY
THOUSAND deposors.
In ALL THE BANKS. there must be TFIIRTY- FIVE
MILLION depositors
Over one-t third then of all the people in the United
States are depositors of some kind
This would constitute a vast army-arger than all the
fighting forces now in the great
1t is upon this army that the United States de-
pends to render the first great service which this country
can offer in the fight for civilization. 80
That service is the raising Of the funds Br the
first Liberty loan.
Every OF these 100000 depostors probably able
out OF future savings take of the $50 bonds
They must be paid for in any,considerable
that would weaken the banks.
II each OF the smaller depoStors took one Of the bonds
this with what the larger depositors have already sub
crbed would give the government many times the amount
called for.
II third of the number of depositors in the United
States each subscribed for the loan there would be about
100000 subscribers-the largest number ever subscrb
ing to any loan in the history OF the world
The number OF subscribers the last loan of Germany
with 100000 nhabants) was 100000
In England with 100000 nhabtants), the great
British loan Of $S00O0OOOO had 100000 subscribers
The United States with over l0O0O0O0O inhabitants
should have at least 100000 subscribers to the first Lib
erty loan
Every true American should take the greatest pride
IN being one OF the subscribers, ac, Of patriotism
It is the same spirit in which every man with muske
crowded to Lexington in the birth hours of the republic
