IF YOUR PAPER
FAILS TO ARRIVE

Again we urge our readers to noti-
fly. us if they do not receive their
copies of the paper twice a week.
Itsis mailed on Mondays and Thurs
days in the evening, and If your ad-
dress Is defective or If your copies
are delivered by mistake to other
people, we want to overcome the diff
ficulty.
We sometimes have inquiries as to
whether the Monday edition adds to
the cost of subscription. Ordinarily
it would double the cost, but until
further notice the publisher considers
it his treat.
As announced a few weeks ago,
the price of print paper has nearly
trebled during the war, and the cost
of other printing materials have ad-
vanced. The price of subscription for
the semi-weekly Republican will be
advanced to four dollars year, but
the date for the advance price to
take effect has not yet been set. Most
of those who are in easy circum-
stances have paid their subscriptions
to January, 1918, and we are giving
time for the others who are not so
we'll off to take advantage of the
same low rate, We do not want the
burden of high price to affect the
poorer people first. For the present
we are still issuing receipts for the
year at the two-dallar rate and rend-
ering the double servcie of the twice.
a-week. For anything we know The
Republican may be a tri-weekly be-
fore your year Is out.

HAD A GENERAL IDEA

1t is interesting to see how peo-
ple's regulations travel or develop
outside of the sphere of their activi-
ties and the following inquiry from
a man with whom the editor Of The
Republican is not personally ac-
uuainted, throws an amusing splash
of sunlight in the direction of The
Republican office:
"Salt Lake City, Utah,
May 10, 1917.
Southern Idaho Republican,
"Blackfoot, Idaho.
Gentlemen:
Send me a copy Of your paper;
| want to see what 1t looks like. |
advertise in papers sometimes, and

the right paper, but you can tell me.
Is this the paper that is edited by
that live wire, Byrd Somebody? Tre-
go, or something else that goes?
Kindly tell us, also send copy OF
the paper.

WHAT is A LIBERTY BOND?

A Liberty loan bond Is solemn
promise of the United States to pay
at maturity the amount OF the BOND
to the holder thereof, and to pay in
terest semi-ahnually each year from
the date of the issuance of the bond
until it is fully and finally paid.
The security behind these bonds
is the faith and honor of the United
States. A Liberty loan bond Is a
mortgage on all the resources and
taxing powers of the government and
all the resources of the American
people.
The Terms
The first issue of bonds to the
amount of $2,000,OOO,OOO are to
bear the date of June Is, 1917, and
to run for 80 years; but the gov
ernment reserves the right to pay
them off Is years from date. They
bear interest at the rate OF 3K per
cent per annum. The interest IS
PAYABLE semi-annually on the tif-
teenth of December and June or
every year.
Special Advantage
If the United States should issue
other bonds during the continuance
of this war at higher rate or IN
terest, the holders Of the Liberty
bonds may exchange for the newer
ones, dollar for dollar.
These Bonds are Non-taxable
No federal tax which war condi-
tions may later make necessary VIII
affect these bonds. The only TAX
they are subject to is the inheritance
tax. and that does not affect the orig
inal holder.
In war times such government
bond is the safest thing there Is to
have money in.
Blank forms for application for
bonds are kept at the banks IN
Blackfoot, at the First National bank
and d. W. Standrod & Co.'s bank.
Why Advertise?
It is not desired merely to raise
this amount of money. 1t Is the
prime feature of this loan that the
people shall have an active interest
| in it and all that 1t means. 1t ls
their opportunity to compete with
financiers in supporting the govern
ment with money.
Subscribing to the Liberty loan Is
as much as to give a pledge of moral
accord with the acts of our govern
ment in time of stress-it is proof OF
patriotism-it is to vigorously aid
and abet the United States.
The speed with which this money
can be obtained by popular subscrip'
tion is our first and best immediate
! blow at Prussianism.

IOUSE PETERS
 FEATURE AT EAGLE

In a gripping, tense drama of broth erly love, House Peters, the splendid Pallas-P Paramount star, will be seen at the Eagle theatre today only in the production, The Heir of the Ages" unusual story by William Addison La throp.
 House Peters has long been a great favorite of the photo-dramatic patrons -sinos his first appearance on the Paramount program in The Girl of the Golden Vest With years of training on the speaking stage in all parts of the world, traveller and sol dier of fortune himself, House Peters has brought to the screen the expert ence and study of an artist
 In 'The Heir of the Ages" he is seen as a primitive man in the days of cave life and shows the human instincts of unselfishness and love. Later the sit uations which confronted him years ago come again when he is superin- tendent of a mine in a small western town. He falls in love with an igno- rant little mountain girl. only to lose her to his worthless brother in the east, and then nearly loses his life in an effort to save theirs.
 How he finally wins the object of his heart is brought about in a man ner which must be seen to be en- joyed.
 House Peters as the cave man, clad in the furs of the beasts he has killed with his club, was a surprise to his many friends around the studio who knew he was a well-built man. but they did not expec: to see the young Hercules who with matted hair and bearing a club. with his brawny breast exposed to the breeze, stroll out of his dressing room on the day those scenes were filmed
 In the cast supporting House Peters are included Eugene Palette, Nina By ron. Henry Barrows and Adele Far rington.
