WHAT TORNADOES ARE

Eighty one tornadoes have careercd
across Illinois within the last 10 years.
They keep happening, but a town in
the way of tornado happens rarely.
Only when it hits a town does a tor
nado become deadly and famous. ana
here in the middle west towns lie con-
veniently wide apart.
4 tornado is a sign OF spring.
Warmth and cold struggle for supre,n-
acy. Dampness adds to the instability
of the air. \ warm wind brushes past

CRISIS IN CORK INDUSTRY,

The cork industry OF the Barcelona

per cent of cork goods Is exported. and
the exports are valued at some $4,000

Since the war this industry has suf-

and storage taxes In France high.
With much OF the export trade para

with difficulties in securing raw ma :

such an extent that cork forest owners

YOUR DUTY TO BUY A BOND.

No better reasons for the purchas
Of Liberty bonds have been offere'
than those given by Colonel Roosevelt
in letter to the Liberty Loan com
mittee Of New York. He wrote il
part:
THE highest human service is
that Of the man who offers his life
to his country. Next to that come
the services in factory and farm
and office which help to keep the
great national war machinery eff
ficiently working. And the out
standing and fundamental need.
without which nothing can be ac-
complished. is the need for money;
money from rich and poor; money
in large sums and small. The
motto you have adopted is excel
lent. II you can't enlist--invest.
Buy Liberty bonds
Il myself have invested in these
bonds. There Is every reason for
buying them. The patriotic reason
is enough. But here in addition
there is offered the best security
in the world, an investment backed
by all the credit OF the government
and people OF the United States.
We ourselves, we the people. are
behind every promise our govern
ment makes. because In the last
analysis ii is we who are the gov
eminent. If the security of the
government should fail it would be
because VIC, the people, were in
such plight as no longer to be in
tcrestcd in any security.
I'VE have joined the war on the
side of liberty. OF liberty for all
mankind, to be obtained through
the forms of orderly democracy.
Long after this war is over we
shall continue in the struggle to
achieve liberty and order for all
the brotherhood of mankind. To
do it effectively we must bind our
selves together as nation, and
there is no surcr bond between "A
man and his country than that he
shall be a bondholder of his conn

racy. Let us make the bond

THE CAMERA IN WAR.

when war broke out the British soon
found themselves short of German
lenses for Photographic purposes; but.
thanks to the aid Of French and
American lens makers. they have
aerial cameras today which arc equal
to those OF the Germans, and can take
an accurate photograph at a height OF
5000 to 10000 feet-far above the ira
