 Buy a Liberty Bond.
 But twelve more days are left in which residents of the town will have chance to subscribe to the second Liberty Loan, thus helping to make the world safe for democracy. At present $33,000, one third of the town of Plainville has been raised through efforts of the general com mittee and popular subscription.
 In a speech made last week by sec- retary of the treasury McAdoo, he de- clared that failure to subscribe the full $5,000, 100000 to the second Lib- erty Loan would be worse than losing five battles in Europe to the Germans. He further stated that some people look upon the bonds as a matter of speculation. As the bonds draw inter- est at the rate of per cent. and are untaxable, and can be sold at any time for the amount for which they were bought, this is not so, he de- clared.
 This town has yet to raise $66,OO0 to complete it's minimum allotment and members of the general commit tee although realizing the tremend- ous task which is before them are hopeful that citizens of the town will feel the importance at this time of untying their purse strings.
 The $50 bonds seem to be the favorite buy, especially with the work ingman. Nearly all the workingmen who have been approached have con- sented to buy one or more of the bonds of the smaller denomination
 As yet the house to house canvass has not been finished and several sec tions of the town have not been can- vassed.
 So far the canvas has shown prom ising results. The committee of women have shown their ability as bond saleswomen and have sold in the neighborhood of $2O,OOO worth of bonds.
 The committee appointed to make plans for the Liberty Bond rally day will hold meeting this week at which time date will be set on which to hold the celebration. J. H. Trumbull, who at present is out of town will preside as chairman of the meeting. Speakers will also be engaged and music hired to Even things up. As result of the rally day which was held when the first Liberty Loan was in progress $22,OOO was subscribed and members of the general committee are in hopes that they will meet with as good for tune this time.
