The children, if they are alive today, should range in ages from 14 to years When the youngest child was an infant in arms, it was m such unfortunate condition physically that an operation. which it was believed th4t only the famous pr. Lovenz could perform, became necessary.
 Mfr: Wasser took his wife and four children and went to Austria Here hs took his child to Dr. Lorenz. who ssnd that the child was too young for ftse operation to be performed, and that he must wait a few years Then came the war, followed soon by the invaSionN of the part Of Austria where Mr.Wasser and his family were Iiv- ing, on1a little farm he had bought, he having decided to bide his time and work and wait. until his child could come under the treatment of the great surgeon

A great war is the supreme test OF

The resources OF the United States are
greater than those of any other
nation. Who is there TO say that the
supreme test will find America I'M
able to meet it?
How much greater should be the
response when the government in
calling upon a portion Of the nations
wealth. not alone gives the assurance
that the money so borrowed is TO be
turned back into the hands of the
American people but in addition gives
a solemn piedge that the Liberty
bonds OF 1917 shall be paid In fuh

The government stands back OF the

honor of the nation and with all OF
