MANY FACES MISSING
FROM THE OLD TOWN;
SOME MAY NOT RETURN
The Folks at Home viii Remember
Them When Fourth Liberty Loan
Campaigns opens Sept. %.

Have you noticed that the old
town isn't altogether what 1t used to-
be? That somehow there is differ
ence when you go down the street?
That the old places are more sub
dued and quiet; less busy and noisy?
That 20 where you will, the club, the
bowling ally the billiard parlor, any
where, there is the same subtle sense
Of change!
The old voices no longer hail you
with such eager challenge, such roy.
al welcome, such whole souled good
fellowship; the old smiles no longer
greet you so warmly and the old
hand claps on the shoulder no longer
bring you the same old sense of CON-
radeship and friendly interest. Some.
thing seems to have slipped silently
out Of life.
For scores Of the old faces are
missing: faces that you knew and
loved the best.
They are "over there" in the khaki
clad ranks that are slowly pushing
the gray Hun line backward toward
the Rhine. They are taking up the
burden of civilization, of democracy
and freedom; the liberation Of half
world threatened with enslavement;
the perpetuation of our own national
liberty and safety. The overthrow
Of Kaiserdom.
And some of them are never to
come back!
None of US will ever forget these
missing faces; the faces of our
friends, our brothers, and sweet
hearts, our husbands and fathers. All
of us will hope to welcome them
home again, triumphant from the fir
Ing line. the jaws of death, the lit
sral mouth of the inferno.
Nor must any OF us forget then
In the coming Fourth Liberty Loa1
drive.
For 1t is to strengthen them anC
3 their fight. to hurry their ultimate
victory and to speed their return
= that these bonds are TO be offered
That and that alone.
= Remember these missing faces
these faces that we love.
And begin at once your saving 70

NEW SUGAR PRICES

The price established for sugar
by Sugar Equalization boards will
be found in the main satisfactory to
various branches of the industry.
The price is not one which will
stimulate production greatly but the
board felt that it would probably
be impossible to bring about large
INCREASE regardless of how high the
price might be set.
Farmers are receiving double for
their beets what they did before the
war, to offset added costs of produc-
ton, aid the present slight increase
in price will help the factories cover
the increased cost of manufacturing.
The sugar industry of the west
has been brought to the attention Of
the whole nation as life saver in
time of need and each section hav-
ing a sugar factory should strive to
maintain and increase its acreage in
an effort to build up the industry SO
