Second Liberty Bond
OpentFOr Subscribers
What WiH COuntyDo?

The first Liberty Loan, offered May
IA, 1917, consisted Of two billion 3 IL
per cent United States Government
bonds maturing in so years.
The second Liberty Loan, offered
October l, 1917, consists Of three bill
lion or more 4 per cent United States
Government bonds in 25 years. but
.ealIable by the Government on any in
terest late after the tenth year.
That is the story in a nutshell. By
keeping in mind the simple facts re-
garding the Liberty Loan as given
above we avoid confusion.
Other War Loans Explained.
However. as the newspapers have
contained a good many articles about
seven billion and eleven billion dollar
loans, we append for the furtherinfor-
nation of speakers the following:
C12 first act authorized a total
issue OF $o,o03, S4J $50 N 3'1-2 per cent
bonds. It also authorized the issue of
two billion short-time Treasury cert1-
ficates of Indebtedness, the character
of these being quite distinct from the
bonds.
The second act authorizes a total
issue of $7,538, 945, 400 in 4 per cent
bonds and cancels all unissued 3 IL
per cent bonds authorized by the first
act. Hence this act authorizes in a c
four billion bonds over and above
those authorized by the first act. The
second act also authorizes the issue
of four billion certificates. Provision
is also made for twd billion warsaw
ings certificates, but regarding these
plans have not yet been perfected.
Details OF Selling Plan
The bonds are sold direct from the
United States Treasury to the people.
There is an appropriation of one-1fth
of / per cent for expenses for rent,
clerk hire, postage, printing, ETC.. and
the engraving of bonds; but no com
M .ssion brokerage, or profits are al
lowed. Bankers are contributing
service gratis.
On all bonds Of the first issue de-
liyeries began in September.
Provisions ReVarding Delivery.
It is fully expected that definite
bonds of this new loan In denomina-
tions up to and including $1,000 will
be ready for delivery beginning Octo-
her IA or earlier and definite bonds
will be ready for delivery against all
subscriptions as soon as aHotments
n final payments have been made.
IA IOan-You lend your money at

average man. All patriots must help
May We add some of the thoughts
which have been impressed upon us
here and which we believe it import
ant to bear in mind?
The men who will buy bonds to the
amount of So 900 or more represent an
extremely small percentage of any au-
dience; and they will all be reached
by bankers and bond statesmen. There
fore, we Four Minute Men must phrase
eur appeal to reach the massse.
This, means that We can hardly ex>
aggregate the need of simple language
for the average man, wen the average
business man, has only the vaguest
concepts of economics and govern
ment; while ur most important class,
those who will buy small bonds from
future savings. harbor ideas almost
unbelieveably erroneous.
Furthermore, the lesser the 1nteIli-
the greater the skepticism; ig-
norance and suspicion are twin broth
ers.
Hence facts seemingly obvious must
be explained, sometimes emphasized,
and before many audiences the speak
er will gain by calculating simple facts
by means of almost ~childlike pictuf-
esque illustrations.

The campaign from October 8 to

are safe; that investors lend. do not

general discussion of the dangers Of
the war and the need of help. Arouse

COLU M N


college athletes are much sought for. Athletes are in physical condition to stand the wear and tear of a hard campaign. Their minds are in such formative state that they grasp instructions quickly and have the strength to execute orders.
 "I wish I had more hardened ath- letes at the station," Commandant Moffett of the naval training station at Great Lakes said recently when asked who made his best sailors Give me the man who has done something in athletics and we will do the rest. That is the reason l nm in favor of staging boxing bouts at the station. There is no easier way to find out what man is made of putting him in the eighteen foot ring with game and rugged opponent. I hope the war will not interfere with intercollegiate ath- letics"
 Hundreds of athletes already are in service. Some are in France. Others are at various camps, eager to go to the front. Pat Page of the University of Chicago. who was drawn in the draft wants to see some action. Pat is an able-b bodied man, and although Coach Stagg would hate to lose his able assist ant, the "Old Man would not tsand in the way despite the fact Page has a family dependent upon him.

Christy Mathewson was calleo the "Old Master, when he pitched championship ball for the Giants. When he becane manager of the Reds the wise men shook their heads and declared that nobody ever could develop a winner in the Cln- cinnati.

Massive Spectacular
 Production at Coliseum.

Don't imagine that you are going to see eight reels of sea life and don't think that you are going to be bored. If you do you are wrong.
 Many times it has been said that there is nothing new-but go to the Coliseum and you will see something that is new
 Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea-" is stupendous production, a new plot new action and new scenes Here and there through the eight reels are glimpses of sea life and sea scenes where but the plot. interesting and startling at times, something new hap penng when one least expects it-and the exquisite scenery and bits of extra ordinary photography-it is that which makes this great production. The story gradually unfods and it never lags. Many unexpected turns occur and new angle is shown to a play of mysterious ness. Not a scene has been slipped over -4they have all been staged true and massive. There is no shoddiness ev erything is all wool and a yard wide. When young. perhaps you read Jules We're clever and absorbing story. It is now on the screen, more clever and more absorbing than the book.
 Owing to the production being eight reels and all being full reels the first show starts propmtly at 7:10 and not at 715 and the story starts right off.
 Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea-" is on only for two nights, tonight and tomorrow and it is a pie ture well worth seeing for many req sons.

DEMAND A HEAVY BAIL FOR TWO MEN
 WHO BOUND OVER

M O. Thorensen and John Oker- berg. two members of the crew of the steamer Firwood. arrested re- gently and charged with furnishing whiskey to natives were given hearing this morning before Commits sioner N. L. Burton and were bound over to the Grand Jury under $5,000 cash bail each.
 This is the heaviest bail ever as- sessed against any man in Alaska to insure his appearance before the Grand Jury on a charge of this kind. but since one of the women engaged in debauch. which occurred at Fun ter Bay, was found dead later by other natives, Commissioner Burton thought himself justified in making the bail heavy.
 No evidence was introduced tend ing to show the cause of the wo- mans death as it was not admissible under the charge for which the men were being examined. This matter will come up before the Grand Jury for investigation.
 The witnesses against the two men were brought from Funter Bay last night on the cannery tender Buster by Deputy Marshal H. F, Morton. who made special trip for that purpose.

PADDOCK TOO LIGHT, SAYS FRANK GOTCH.

Frank Gotch, former wrestling champion, has some new aspirations. He no sooner sees new champion created than he wants to knock him down and build up new one.
 He likes Earl Caddock, present champion, and believes the Anita man is a wonder; but because of the ,ightness in poundage of the new star he fears he will not last long as
 After looking over the field carefully I am convinced there are three men who have grand chance of becoming champion within the next two or three years" Gotch said recently "Of these men, I believe Ed Lewis, the Kentucky strong boy, has the best chance of being turned into something that would be un- beatabIe.
 Do you know that I would like nothing better than to get Lewis for time and train him? Now, here's a fellow that has a lot of good wrestling concealed about him, but for one reason or another he is never willing to display all of his wares. never could quite figure 1t. Perhaps 1t is the remarkably cautious manner in which his man ager handles him.
 I've seen him in matches which ie could have won easily had he been willing to display the least bit of aggressiveness. But he is all ways holding off afraid or unwilling to take a chance. And his manager encourages him in this stand It is safety first all the time with them. can not understand it at all
 "In wrestling, as in other games, aggressiveness counts great deal. especially when it is displayed at the right time. There are times when a waiting game is excellent judg- ment, but not always. Why wait when you know you have the other fellow beaten?
 "Zbyxko, the young Pole, is an other great ma1, they tell me. I haven't seen much of him. but from what they tell me he is the chap who is showing real improvement If they mastered two holds-the crotch and the half nelson-the way did, they would be wonderful.
