ALL BANKS TO HELP.

The report that only banking in
situations qualified as United States
government depOsitaries would be
allowed to take subscriptions for
the Fourth Liberty loan has been
emphatically denied.
The treasury department" says
Secretary McAdOO, desires that all
banking institutions shall continue
in the future as they have in the
past periodically to assist and Co

paigns for the sale of government
securities
Secretary McAdoo's often ex-
pressed gratitude and appreciation
of the patriotism and the wonder
full effectiveness of the work of the
banks of the. country in the past
Liberty loan campaigns would seem
absolutely to negative any idea that
he would refuse to avail himself OF
their assistance in future cam

SOLDIER NEEDS WOOL.

A campaign to conserve the wool

instituted by many women's organ

commission of public safety and
council OF national defense This
group Of women issued the follow =

Marian Weller, chairman of the
commission on war dress, a profess
sor of the University of Minnesota:
"A soldier uses 13 times as
much wool as a civilian. 1t re-
quires log pounds to equip a SOL

NO fiber will replace wool. The
soldiers uniform to be of the
greatest service must be all wool

use a substitute in many places. .
Can you afford an extra sweat

the New Jersey division. "One

GIVE ITALY CREDIT.

Philadelphia. - William Potter,
former ambassador to Italy and
now federal fuel administrator for

give the Italian nation credit for
the great part she has played in
the war.
Just consider" said Mr.. Potter.
what might have been the fate Of
the allies had Italy with her army
and navy, gone with the central
powers. France at the outbreak of
the war would have had to divide
her army to protect her Italian
frontier.
The small, but brave little Brit
ish army would have been power
less to assist France both on the
western and Italian fronts. Italy
remained neutral until her weaken
eG army was strengthened, cast ler
lot with the allies and helped to
hold the Huns until America came
into the war
Let the American people show
their gratitude to Italy by placing
everywhere the Italian flag among
cid glory, the union Jack, the tri-
color of France and the flag CT

In the present major operations
on the western front the Germans
have not so far assaulted the
northern portion of the line held
by the British-American forces
Nor have these allied forces made
any general offensive. There have
though. been many minor attacks
and local engagements, and it is
possible that the Moline and Rosa

OF these Only as recently as last
night British and American raiding

Or do you think l am too old for
him?

If you love each other when the
