made hole into the abdomen and

the intestine was forced UP into the
lung cavity, plugging the hole in the
diaphragm temporarily.
Today, Brown was resting easily
and his temperature was normal. and
his condition indicated that he has
an excellent chance for complete re-
covery, as an example of the triumphs
of modern surgery.

PRIVILEGE OF
CONVERTING BONDS
OF Third Liberty Loan Expires Nov.
8. Holders should Not Wait Tn
til Last Moment For Privilege

The privilege of conversion which
arose in consequence of the issue of
4 per cent bonds of the third Liberty
loan will expire on November 8 and
under existing law can not be ex-
tended or renewed. Holders of these
4 per cent bonds lost nothing by ex-
ercising the privilege of conversion
terest per annum. Holders of 4 per
cent bonds should not wait until the
last moment to exercise the privilege
of conversion. but proceed TO do so
promptly. Delay will result in over
burdening the banking institutions OF
the country and the Treasury Depart
ment by making it necessary TO han
die all conversions at the last mo-
ment. and may result in the loss of
the privilege of conversion altogether.
Holders of coupon bonds are
strongly advised to request issue of
registered bonds in order to protect
themselves against the risk or loss,
theft, and destruction of their bonds.
Official Department Circular No.
ia, with forms of application, has
been distributed to Federal Reserve
banks and banks and trust companies
throughout the United States These
institutions are asked, as a matter of
patriotic service, to assist bond hold
ers in exchanging per cent bonds
for AZ per cent bonds and in regis
tering their bonds.

THE DOOM OF ALCOHOL

The long-threatened day of doom for
King Alcohol is now fixed. BY the re-
cent action of the United States Sen
ate, that once potent monarch is def
nitely sentenced TO lose his head on
July /, 1919. A Congressional or
Presidential reprieve seems unlikely.
The doom was certain anyhow 1t
would not have taken more than a
year or two to secure the ratification
of the federal prohibition amendment
by the requisite number of States. Ac-
ton by Congress merely hastens the
matter a little.
The measure approved by the SEN
ate and awaiting concurrence by the
House does not provide for unqualified
prohibition 1t merely bans the liquor
traffic until the rehabilitation of our
army after the war. That process, at
best, will probably not be completed
until a couple of years hence, and in
the meantime the federal amendment
will doubtless become effective.

AN ARTIFICIAL HAND

A young Italian school teacher,
Signorina Rint Paltrinieri, has in
vented an artificial hand that has had
the full approval of the Italian Gov
eminent and which will be used to
help the Italian soldiers who have
suffered the amputation of one or both
hands. There are two different con-
trivances. the first to be adjusted over
the bandages for use Immediately
after the amputation, so that the
mutilated person can eat, write, dress
himself and grasp any object with
the greatest facility. The second con-
trivance is little heavier and the
mechanism is concealed in plastic
hand.

MARCH on, AMERICA
Ode to Our Country

(By Grace Hawthorne, Member
American Defense Society
America, The Land of Youth,
Few are the pages of thy records yet,
But every page
With glorious deeds and lofty aims is
set;
The tale of men who fought
For Freedom, Home and Country
not for Fame.
When honor came
1t came unsought
And nations stood apart and thought,
And watched the mastering defiant
fate;
Foremost in peace, triumphant in war.
They, wondering, gazed, then cried,
All Hail, Earth's youngest nation;
thou art great.
America! The land of Truth!
Whose sons proclaimed the vault of
heaven
All men are free and all belong to
God
No man so lowly but to him is given
The chance of greatness. All shall
know the right,
And to do their duty in their coun-
try's sight!
Then hail, thou noble band,
Spreading progress throughout every
land,
Teaching the children of our Saxon
race
So manfully the storms of life to face,
That all men say
Whatever ills betide,
No dangers can America
dismay.
Her children meet them calm and
firm and brave,
And win or suffer with unfiinching
pride.
March on, America! and march
alone,
Though corrupt nations sink to bit
ter end,
Where faith and chivalry are dead
gone,
Where lust of gain and treachery con-
tend,
And men to all the baser passions
bend.
Go thou, my country on,
Thy banner set with stars shall tell
the world
Those stars with hope and truth and
honor beam.
Wherever freedoms banner is un-
furled,
Wherever Stars and Stripes triumph
ant wave,
There hearts are true and men are
bold and brave.
March on. America, and march alone:
THE GREATEST OF THY FUTURE
IS THINE OWN.

SUBSTITUTES FOR
ANTHRACITE COAL
Bitnminous Coal, Coke And Wood
Should BE Used When
Possible

What the e. S. Quartermaster's
Corps has shown as being accomA
pIished in anthracite fuel saving at
81 posts. camps, cantonments and sta
tions in the territory south OF Wash
ington and west OF Pittsburgh, can
be done by all fuel users in the "a
States not barred to anthracite use
It is Appropriated that 100000
tons of anthracite were saved by the
above efforts by the substitution OF
bituminous, coke and wood This
idea has been generally accepted by
all State and city Fuel Administra-
tors where it is found that a COM
munity's location naturally lends it
self to such saving of anthracite.
When the Anthracite Committee of
the U. S. Fuel Administration an
nounced the 191S-19 coal year allot-
ment figures of 54,345.7S3 tons of
domestic sizes for "a States and Can
ada which included railroad supplies,
miscellaneous exports and fuel for
army and navy environments and
camps, it did so taking into consid-
Grafton the help which all Fuel Ad-
ministrators would give by their con-
servation methods. These figures are
a per cent increase over the 1916
IL total distribution of anthracite
tonnage. but differently allotted to
meet war conditions.
Residents of each community should
take war conditions into considera-
ton Every locality is situated more
or less differently and every fuel
economy practiced by the house
holder is that much more gained by
the Nation for the tremendous fuel
supplies needed to bring the war to a
successful end.
All economics should be practiced
with patriotic ferver. Coal conserva-
ton should be studied with eternal
vigilance. Wherever possible, btu
minous, wood and coke should be
substituted for anthracite. The plan
of conservation, as applied in the dis
tribution to communities. in the vari-
Gus States by the Anthracite Commit
tee under the State allotments, will
work out to the greater fuel satisfac-
ton of the general public next
winter
