time and pay interest on it at
} regular intervals until it is re-
} paid.
The government borrows
money in this way only after it
has been given the rig hit to do
so by act of congress approved
by the President, and the terms
of the loan are set out in the
act.
Back of the promise of the
government stands the honor
of the government and all it's
taxing resources. Really the
whole wealth of the Nation
stands behind this solemn
promise of the government to
pay.
This makes a United States
government bond the safest in
vestment in the W orld. If the
bond of the United States gov
eminent is not safe, no pro-
perty in the United States is
safe. If the United States can
not pay its bonds, it is hardly
probable that it will be able
to protect the citizens in their
other rights.
The Liberty Loan Bonds of
1917 are especially attractive
investments. Not only have
they this absolute safety char
acteristic of all United States
bonds but they are tax free not
only from all existing taxes
but from any war tax that may
subsequently be levied. No
state, city, nor county may tax
them. The inheritance tax of
the United States and of soma
states may affect them, or,
rather their transfer after
death of the owner by will or
by inheritance.
Another advantage these
Liberty Loan Bonds possess is
that if the government issues
bonds later on during this war
at a higher rate of interest the
holders of Liberty Loan Bonds
will be allowed to exchange at
par their bonds for bonds bear
the higher rate of interest.
Since the auto licenses will
entirely pay for the road bonds
and auto owners are united in
of having good road
work done why should anyone
object?
There is but one desirable
place for anyone starting pro-
against the compuls-
cry service law and that place
is in jail.

home in the saddle.

Dr.. Hyde, President
Of Bowdoin, Dies
Became Head of College in
1885 at Age of 27-Author
of Religious Works

Brunswick, Ne. June 29.-The Rev.
DR.. William De Witt Hyde, president
of Bowdon College since 1885. died
here to-day after months illness.
He was fifty-nine years old.
His health had been failing for some
time. A few weeks ago he relinquished
his academic duties. Kenneth c. VI.
Sills, the dean, was appointed acting
head of the institution For the first
time since he became president, DR..
Hyde was unable to take any part in
the commencement exercises last week.
Dr. Hyde was only twenty-seven
years old when he became head Of
Bowdoin. For years thereafter he was
known as the boy college president"
His youth proved TO be no handicap,
however. for he instllled new life into
the institution. The growth and de-
velopment OF Bowdoin in recent years
are due almost entirely to him.
Born in Winchendon. Mass. IN 1893.
Dr. Hyde was graduated from Harvard
in 1879 and from Andover Theological
Seminary in 1882. He was ordained as
a Congregational minister IN 1888, and
for two years thereafter was pastor Of
A church in Paterson, y. j.
In 1855 he went to Bowdoin as presi-
dent and professor of mental and moral
philosophy. His appointment caused a
stir in New England. for it had been
the custom to choose men of ripe years
as college presidents.
DR.. Hyde wrote several books on re-
ligious and sociological subjects.
Among these are The New Ethics, -
Abba Father" "Self-Measurement,"
The Five Great PHILOSOPHERS Of Life
and "The Quest of the Best" He was
a fellow OF the American Academy Of
Arfs and Sciences.
