For this reason-among others
the bonds of the Second
Liberty Loan of 1917 are a
particularly attractive invest
ment for the business man who
desires to keep surplus capital
liquid. Liberty Loan Bonds
can be turned into cash readily,
a stable value being assured by
the privilege Of conversion into
any later war issues bearing a
higher interest rate. And they
are the best of collateral-the

eminent OF the United States is making
in this county widespread investiga-

c. H. e. Boardman, OF this city, has
been requested by the governments
alien property custodian to investigate

estate locally TO be investigated is tina
Of Mrs. Mary Grumme Turner, latt
wife of George A. Turner, and, before
her marriage to Mr.. Turner, the widow
Of Frederick Grumme.
Big Estate to German Heirs.
Mrs. Turner's estate was valued al
about $4,000, and was disposed of By
will, one-half being left to Mrs
Turner's heirs, and one-haf to the
heirs of Frederick Grumme. One-hal1
of the estate to the Grumme heirs went

quarter interest to the German heirs
amounts to over $4,000, and because
Of the war It has never been possible
to distribute the money to the heirs.
Altho much Of the Turner estate was
in real property at the time Of Mrs.
Turner's death, 1t was all converted
into cash thru sale conducted by the
executor, George A. Turner.
Money Now in Liberty Bonds.
When the first liberty loan was
noated portion of the German money
was invested In liberty bonds, and the
rest of it was placed into bonds OF Inc
second issue. An order Of the probate
court, on the authority Of the United
States, doubtless will be made soon
according to Mr.. Boardman, directing
the executor to turn over to the alien
property custodian the bonds repre-
senting the share of the German heirs
in the estate.
There will be no opposition whatever
on the part of the executor to the pro-
cedure. On his own motion Mr.. Turner
sought to invest the share of the Ger
man heirs in liberty bonds, and all he
will want under the seizure Of the
German estate will be the protection
for himself as executor by the court
and government.
Mr.. Boardman will continue his in
vestigation of other estates of Local
German american citizens who may
have left requests to German heirs
since the war began.

Central Church Meetings,

At the Central Chunch of Christ last
night a large congregation heard the
splendid sermon on Faith" by Mr
Boswell.
The evangelist showed that saving
faith was the belief into Jesus Christ
as the son Of God, including the COM
plete surrender of the life Of Jesus
The good confession is the all inclusive
acceptance Of Jesus as the Lord and
Saviour, what he is, what he COM
n1ands, and all his teaching for the
perfect spiritual life. He who disbe-
lieves rejects Jesus as the Son Of God
and thus casts aside all provisions God
has made for mans salvation thru
Christ his son.
The evangelist further explained
what faith had led the faithful servants
Of God and disciples Of Jesus to do
All the service rendered for the good
Of men, the SACRIFICES made by the dis
ciplAs Of Jesus are the result Of faith
The object of that faith being Christ
Gods son.

Will Set Aside.

Carrying out a promise Of contest
that was set out in the application for
the appointment Of special admin

Heinrich Oehlsen, Of the French Grove
neighborhood north of State Center,
Monday filed objections to the probat-
ing of the will. The contestants are
Mrs. Mary Gerke Parsons, Mrs Amelia
Hennis and Mrs. Louise Oehlsen.
Property Of an estimated value OF
about $4,000 is involved and the con-
testants ask that the will be set aside
and the estate divided as by statute
provided.
1t is alleged in the objections that the
will Is not the last will Of the decedent
and that he was unduly Influenced in
making 1t by H. F. Oehlson, an heir
and only son. 1t is further averred
that the decedent was incompetent of
knowing the value Of his estate or Of
beuueathing it.
