FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN
CAMPAIGN is AT HAND

The Fourth Liberty Loan campaign,
to give every American an opportunity
to lend to his own government money
to win the war and drive the Hun
back over the Rhine is now at hand.
In every county in the state there 10
loyal, energetic citizens, who are sub
scribing literally themselves and en-
coUr~ o'ng others to subscribe.
1t is believed that the task Of OBJ
tanning subscriptions will be far cas-
Ter in this loan than in the past, de-
spite the greatly increased quotas
given every zone and county. For,
surely the American people have
learned by this time what Liberty
Loan means, what 1t wiz do for the
country and what it win do for the
man, whether he be farmer or mer-
chant or laborer, who saves his mon
ey and lends It, with interest, to
Uncle Sam. There is really no rea-
son why one loyal American should
have to chase another loyal American
all over a ten-acre field to ask him
to do his duty.
II is believed that in this campaign
a much greater proportion Of citizens
win go voluntarily to the banks or 70
the committee and make their sub
scription directly, obtaining g Liberty
Loan button and thus declaring they
have done their duty to their country.

This Girl is a "Lineman."

When the automatic telephone switchboard in santa Monica, CaL, sets out of order it is young woman, clad in overalls and jumper, that shoots the trouble"
 Before this hsh-school graduate of unusual accomplishments obtained her present position of indoor mechanic, she proved herself as efficient Gs the rlen in doing line work, cliinbing poles and replacing wires as readily as any of them, says Popular Mechanics, in describing her attachments.
 But for the war and the shortage of men having mechanical experience, she probably would not be filling mans place.
 However, being fond of mechanics and having a knowledge of electricity, she intends to remain at her post until peace comes, and then get q college education.

Cld-Time Barley Ere ead.

We find more entertainment than in struction in an editorial of the Hart ford Courant on the revised use Of barley. It refers to its use in Binlc times and finds this verse in the Book of Judges to give an idea of it's qual- ity:
 And when Gideon was come, be- hold there was a man that told | dream unto his fellow, and said, Be hold, I dreamed q dream, and b, q cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian and cane unto a tent and smote it that it fell and over turned it, that the tent lay along
 The Courant seems to approve of the use of barley flour, though admit ting some difficulties in preparing it for bread. But it takes this Bible verse as evidence that it's density would make it seryiccable as d pro jectile.-Watcrbury American.
