William kilifer, Backstop

William Kilifer is of the greatest baseball catchers in the country It takes nerve to play De- hind the bat and MT. Kifer has nerve in abundance Otherwise he would have applied to his draft board for exemption, with such showing as he was able to make; that his wife, who had been earning s1200 year temporarily out of job and that he himself had been employed for F years the best period of his life, at the meager salary of s5,ooo of half year.
 If this application had been made at some other time than the present it might got Mr. Kilifer something. But circumstances against him. The allies especially the British, need him. They are making retrograde movement after another; they strengthening out their lines; they are taking kinks of it here and there all the time they moving back. They need backstop and Mr. Kilfer is the greatest back-stop living. He admits that himself. It would be a shame to keep him in this country in this exigency the western front

T0 BUY BONDS

 Buy a bond therefore has a par- ticular meaning to this small band or club women who are Jointly serving q patriotic cause and at the same time making a business investment with eye to the future club home

Take the Bonds

We hope that the tour of MT. McAdoo everywhere will be marked by sudden activity and outpouring of Liberty Loan subscriptions; that everywhere he can make clear to his hearers and through the press to the public the absolute necessity of the purchase of the bonds that it is the best thing the public do to take the bonds that the offering of them is really concession to the people who must, if not in this, in other less profitable way, let the gov have the money it needs to carry the
 The Third Liberty loan campaign according to the dispatches is considerably behind the schedule. In parts of the country it is amentably behind. It is notably in the larger cities where, in the two previous campaigns the greater part of the loan taken; where alone in fact the campaigns saved from failure.
 The people should understand that far this country is concerned the war is young We have not yet been called upon to do much not nearly as much as we will yet be called upon to do. There will be other loans voted by congress and offered to the people We will get used to buying bonds, or if we do not buy them to the unpleasant exactions of taxes. There is way escape our part in the war except by going to the poorhouse where can- not be taxed for anything; where the high cost of living in consequence of the cannot annoy us The poorhouse will be the only place in the whole country where any of be immune against the expense of carrying on a great
 The slackers will all eventually be hunted out gathered in in one way or another. Those who buy bonds and do not, will be subject to heavy taxes which they cannot evade. Those whose property is not taxable but who and save money to buy bonds and do not will be taxed indirectly heavily We can evade this taxation only by coming patriotic ally forward and taking these bonds which will yield us returns in interest and in increasing the whole country will do that there will be no need of any more taxes.

 Organized labor was represented by
 Thomas J. Croaff. president of the
 State Federation of Labor; Organizert
 II. s. McCluskey and J. D. Smith, sec retary of the Arizona Federation of Labor, and the federal immigration
 bureau was represented by Frank Brown.
 Reports, communications and letters concerning employment of labor in the mines were presented and discussed freely by the members of the commits tee and the persons named sitting in conference.
 No substantiated evidence was pre- scented that any mine operator in Arf- zona had knowingly transported any member of the organization known as | the I. W. W. into Arizona, or that he 1 had approved or abetted their employ~ | ment in the mines. l In addition to the above, the roHa
 resentatives of organized labor stated 1 that members of the I. W. w. are ex- | cluded from membership in unions af- l filiated with the Arizona State Federas l tion of Labor and the American Feds eration of Labor; and the representa> 1 tive of each of the mining properties
 present made categorical denial of any knowledge of employment of such practice, and an appeal for any infoca
 nation that would be helpful to Aeni;'
 in this purpose.
 1 Assurances were also given hy the mine managers present as % cempff-
 ance by them with the recommendas | tions of the presidents mediation com4
 mission in the employment of labor in | the mines.
 l The executive committee expresses
 its qualification in finding nothing but
 a sense of national obligation and pub
 lie duty, and an attitude of loyalty and
 patriotism on the part of operators and
 the labor element.
 1 In this matter, and in others affect- | ing the public welfare, the council acts within the clearly defined scope of its duties in cooperation with the Nationalt Council of Desense, and, in part, with l instructions communicated directly to it by the president of the United States. ! -O

LOYALTY

When all is done and peace has come again,
And all the gold and blood and tears spent,
And thru the streets our battleweared men
Come marching back they proudly went.
Can all of you who stayed perforce behind,
Quite safe from bullet, bayonet and shell
Show to these clear and guitess mind
Or must you cover thoughts you shame to tell?
Can you, then, say them who have quaed
At what the Hun could do on land and sea-
Gin all these months my faith has never failed
Nor ceased to speak of victory to be.
81 entertained thought of dread
Nor lost my trust in triumph over there,
Nor sighed, shrugged shook the hopeless head
Nor spoke the craven word Of black despair
Oh when they ask you you truly say,
With that calm gaze that them eye to eye
81 never feared that Wrong could win the day,
Nor dreamed that Right could ever die?'
Friend, in that holy hour when peace is here,
Can you, ask hold up your bameless head
And know your record clear your conscience clear,
Or must you shrink from what you have said?
In wars hard days our hearts understand,
And we learn the lesson, every one
That he who fears is traitor to his land
And he who doubts is partner to the Hun!
