Judge Ruppenthal says the language
continues to outrun the dictionaries.
In the judges own Kansas dictionary,
which he has compiled through many
years in shortgrass courts, there are
more than 1000 western words and
phrases which are not in any other die

The surprise element, in the Marine

Just ourselves to new conditions after
the war If all the people have invest
ed their savings In War Savings
Stamps and Liberty Bonds. They will
feel that they are stockholders in
that great corporation known as the
United States Government, and will
take more interest in its welfare and
In its development than ever before.
1t ID highly desirable that the CAM
paign for selling War Savings Stamps
and Liberty Bonds should ben gen
eral. 1t will be better to have a thou
sand citizens buy 81 worth Of War
Savings Stamps piece than to have
some one individual buy $1,000 worth.
1t will be better for the Government
to sell its bonds to many individuals
in small amounts than to have the
banks and the rich buy the securities
in large blocks.
Let US have a campaign that will
get everybody interested in buying
Government securities. Thus shall we
doubly help to win the victory over
the nations that seek to destroy de-
m0cracy throughout the world.

One of the greatest benefits that we
shall obtain from this war viii be the
lesson of economy and of self-sacri-
flee.
He that giveth from the abundance
that he has is doing well. And he
who makes sacrifices in order that
another may live is benefiting both
him that receiveth and him that
giyeth.
Another benefit from this war is
that it Is teaching us to think nation
ally and not locally Everywhere
throughout the United States today
men and women. boys and girls are
thinking and working for the Nation.
In addition to giving their time they
are giving their money and savings.
We shall have a more strong and
unified Nation at the end OF this war
than we had before it was begun. 1t
is Of enormous advantage to the Ma
tion to have the people buy the War
Savings Stamps out OF their savings
because it links their mind and heart
closer to the Nations welfare. It is
important and exceedingly beneficial
to have men and women buying Lib
crty Bonds. for this gives them a
direct interest in the welfare OF the
country and makes them properly
watchful as to how their money is
expended.
Through this method of financing
our national needs we are knitting
the people closer together and get
ting more compact national life.
