Liberty Bonds and Savings.

The habit of thrift has been so greatly
encouraged in America by the Liberty
loan bonds which appealed strongly to
patriotism and at the same time fur
nished such a splendid opportunity for
saving, that it is believed that an era of
economy and saving has been we'll begun
in this nation.
The American people are now thor
oughly informed in the matter Of govern
ment bonds, and it seems the consensus
of opinion of authorities on such matters
that the next Liberty bond issue will
sell more readily than the two billion
dollar issue which has just been over
subscribed 80 per cent. Thrift joins with
patriotism and humanity to make the
next bond issue a success.
The opinion is also expressed that the
savings banks deposits in this country
win grow as this habit of thrift grows.
The small purchasers of Liberty loan
bonds did not pay for their bonds with
money drawn from savings banks, but
are now paying Tor them out Of new
savings, and the habit Of thrift thus
brought about will increase savings
banks deposits.
This has been the experience of Eng
land; Great Britain has sold since the
war began over ten billion dollars in
war bonds to her citizens. vet the saw

Wales also increased sixty million dol.

OLD THREE LEAGUE
GIVES UP THE GHOST

Chicago, July War has forced the
Three I league. one Of the Oldest minor
,eaSues OF the country, to close its
parks. The organization will suspend
its season next sunday, President A. Il.
Tcarney announced tonight The eight
clubs have lost approximately $4,000
since the start of the season eight
weeks ago.
Although the league faced unplecc-
denied weather conditions early in the
season, President Tcarney safd thai
subscriptions of the Liberty loan and
the Red Cross and the general lack Of
interest in the game owing to the war
contributed largely to the leagues
failure.
The closing of the Three I makes the
fourth league to suspend since the
opening of the season two months ago.
The Virginia league was the first to
fail. Then the North Carolina league
suspended after less than six weeks Of
operations. The Northern league gave
up yesterday because of heavy finan-
eial losses. Several other leagues are
reported to be near collapse.
