Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let ii be afraid" Emphasis
was put upon the need of a Divine
presence in this life to comfort and
strengthen the children of men.
After the sermon the holy commu-
MON was administered.
At the evening service the text was
Judges 1921, And they stood every
morn in his place round about the
camp" Men were urged to be so faith
full and true that men could trust them
and God could depend upon them to do
their whole duty.
After the benediction, the "One-to-
Win-One" workers were organized with
Rev. c. c. Wier. chairman: Mr.. H. H.
Gibson, vice chairman, and Miss Iona

MEETINGS.

The usual meetings Of the two con-
ferences took place on Monday evening,
with, of course, the usual members
present. 1t seems strange that some
people are always willing to let the
other party. get all the benefits OF good
works. A more meritoriOus work than
the work of the two st. Vincent de
Paul Conferences can hardly be found,
and yet only a handful are willing to
avail themselves of the wonderful OPP
pOrtunity. Well the few who are ac-
tive members make up for the want
of members by their devOtedness and
cheerfulness. Somebody's helping and
they are receiving their reward even
now, for happier people cannot be
found in Algiers.

II. N. G. c. NOTES.
by Mace

The II. y. G. c. boys met with
surprise last night when they were
defeated at the hands of the st. JOS
eph in their gymnasium. Ii was the
hardest game of the season, the score
being four to four in the seventh
round. They decided to go to nine
innings so the score would be decis-
i've. What made it a big surprise
was that last Thursday the same
teams met in Algiers and the local
boys gave them the worst beating
they received during their indoor ca
reer, the score turning out 81 to moth
ing. What made the feat so remark
able was that the same team that Op-
posed (the youngsters played off a
tie with the Boys High for the city
championship last season. This shows
the improving and get up spirit has
not left the team until now, and they
are in hopes of having the 1917 pen
nant framed up in their possession
next year. The confidence instilled
in the boys is due to the fact that they
have more candidates out to repres-
ent the club than ever before.

THE POPULAR-PRICED BOND.

pRIOR to the Liberty loan which the government has
so successfully handled, the number OF persons own
ing bonds was exceedingly small The funds
OF estates often invested in government bonds re-
tired business purchased such securities and banks
owned some OF them But individuals looked on gov
ernmcnt bonds with the cagerneSs that they viewed
savings accounts IN banks
The situation has changed The administration used
efforts to make the Liberty loan popular one the idea
having been to get the small investors interested Since
yera million people bought Liberty bonds the loan was
p popular success
Now that the people of this country are familiar with
the government bond savings institution ard as an
investment future loans will be made by the secretary Of
the treasury with much ease In this line the suggestion
has been made that the loan be denominations even
lower than the minimum of the Liberty bonds.
The smallest Liberty bond was $50; and If person
did not have that OF cash there was a general
plan by the banks to aid small investors in buying a
bond by the in'almcn method The results will be ,at-
ISiactory to both bank and investor
Yet there great many people who hc,itatei 10
obligatc themselves to make the weekly payments that
would give them ownership OF small bonds For such in
vestors way be found to get them aligned in the
next popular rally to absorb a bond issue
Early in the fall the government will likely cali for
more money; perhaps the next loan will be for only
SlOCOOOOOOO, ye it may be double that amount To give
the loan more popularity than the Liberty loan the frs,
ot that nature that the present generation knows ANYTHING
about would seem wise the part OF administration OF
oias to issue bonds low S. or $40 II this be done
then the number OF investors government bonds is quite
certain to be 100000 instead OF less than sOOOOOO the
number who bought Liberty bonds
The who would hesitate long time before buyinc
$50 Liberty bond would quickly buy one for IS or $40.
he would tuck it away in his pocket and be delighted
Then he would never be until he had bought
second bond, and third and on The process would
make him thrifty, and would bring the government lot
OF small subscriptions that would aggregate millions OF
dollars.
These baby bonds could be sold in department stores
at cigar stands in drug stores and at every other
camille establishment 1t would result in the most popular
loan the world ever has known
