DON'T DO YOUR BIT

But do your two bits and do it
every day; it's as easy as rolling off
a log. Just go to the local postoffice
and ask one of the charming young
ladies who preside at the window for
a Thrift stamp. 1t will cost you 25
cents. A little coverlet accompanies
it and in this you paste your purchase.
When it is full (sixteen stamps fill it)
add IL cents in cash and exchange it
for one of Uncle Sans SIS war certi-
ficates. which bears interest at 1-2
per cent and are payable January l.
1923, though they can be redeemed
at any time for the money you have
paid in. After February 1st. next,
you add cent for each month to the
IL cents.
This process offers splendid op-
portunity for the individual to save
money besides adding to Uncle Sans
fund to prosecute the war.
Buy one of these stamps at once
and get the habit so firmly impressed
on you that you will buy one and
perhaps two or three every day. A
little self-denial in our practices is
the only essential necessary. And
then think of the good you are doing

Packers Cornered At Last

Tonopah Times: The packers who
often have taken ali the earnings of
thousands of stockmen for an entire
season, and put many others out of
business entirely, are kicking like
bay steers because the food admins
tration has cut their profits to 9 per
cent. But the people feel like giving
three cheers.
1t has always been understood by
their own account, that the packers
seldom or never made any money.
However, the food administration
discovers a reduction of a mere SO
per cent in their returns will leave
them something like 9 per cent still
to the good, and this must be suffi-
cient during the war.
The packers say they cannot bor-
row money on this beggarly per cent
with which to expand to meet war
needs and maintain their efficiency.
But Hoover suggests that as export
demand for packing products is far
beyond the supply. there can be no
lack of confidence in banking circles
in regard to the earning capacity of
the meat business. which seems to
end the conversation.

JUDGE TALBOT LOSES
CASE AGAINST MACK

The Supreme Court late Monday
afternoon handed down a decision
in the Talbot versus Mack case, on
appeal from the Washoe County dis
trict court.
The opinion, which upheld the ac-
tion of the lower court. was written
by Chief Justice McCarran. and con-
Cured in by Associate Justices Cole
man and Sanders.
This case grew out of letter writ
ten by Judge Mack of Reno to the
stockholders of the Nevada Fire In
surance Company in which he said
that the company was overloaded
with salary and travelling expenses.
Judge Talbot. who was manager of
the company, brought suit for libel.
alleging the language of the letter
to be false and defamatory and in
tended for the purpose of injuring
him in his business and profession.
and asking for $50. 900 damages.
In his opinion Chief Justice McCar-
ran, after lengthy and lucid analy-
sis of the question. concludes by hold
ing that the language used in the
letter written by Judge Mack was
not libelous per Sc. and hence, as no
special damages were alleged. the
complaint failed to state cause of
action.

Many of the horses were unbroken.
This will be the largest shipment OF

County Recorders must accept and
place on record any document given
to them for that purpose in case the

office holds in an opinion given to
District Attorney Kenny of Church
i'll County. 1t is considered that the
recorder has no judicial powers and
that the effect of recording instru-

erly formed or completed. is of nc
concern to the recording officer.
Announcement is made that A. Car.

HOW RELATIVES WILL
LEARN SOLDIERS FATE

The War and Navy departments
are urging relatives of enlisted men
not to lombard the department with
queries for details concerning men
mentioned in casualty lists.
Officials of both departments state
that every detail concerning men
killed, wounded. or taken prisoner.
will be wired their families the min
ute it is available. y is impossible
to get more than the bare announce
ment in less than from two to six
weeks.
The army casualty list is in charge
of Major j. S. Jones. Here is how
it works: In every regiment both in
this country and in Pershing's force
several enlisted men record each
casualty. They report these to their
commanders, who send the reports
Immediately to headquarters whence
they are cabled without delay to
Washington.
Major Jones at once telegraphs to
the person mentioned in the soldiers
emergency address onfile at the War
Department telling all he knows
about what happened to the soldier.
Later on detailed written reports as
to how the men were killed or wound
ed are mailed to the War Department.
This causes delay which will lengthen
as the casualty lists grow.
If a soldier is captured. Germany
under international law is required
to report to this Government through
diplomatic channels which takes
about six weeks.
The procedure is practically the
same in the navy.
