Committee Expresses Appreciation

The Finance Committee of the
Stevens County Chapter again wishes
to avail itself of the courtesy of 'The
Tribune ON this occasion not to
solicit but to extend thanks. The
generous, unquestioning response of
the people of this city to our effort
to place the chapter on a definite
monthly contribution basis has ex-
celled every expectation. 1t has
made the task of the committee and
of those ladies who so kindly assisted
in the campaign, both a pleasant one
and a light one. AS usual when
Morris sees a duty, she meets it with
sails squared to the wind. 1t is be-
cause of this ready response that it
is possible for us to announce at this
time that the 100000 per month re-
quired to meet our running expenses
has been met.
The March payments are now due
and will be paid directly to the chair
man of the committee, E. J. Jones, at
his Office in "the Jones Lumber Co"
building, 10 w. 9Th st. We wish to
take this occasion to urge all to as
sumo full responsibility for the regu-
lar payment of their dues, without
any reminder on the part of the COM
mittee, as such regularity will great
ly facilitate our work and result in
saving of both time and postage. We
also wish to say for the benefit of
any persons who may have been over
looked in this canvass that the mis-
take has been an unintentional one
and we hope that any such persons
will communicate with our chair
man directly. At the same time We
wish to urge all those who have not
yet signed the pledge cards left at
their homes, to do so. 1t is easily
understood small over subscription
is necessary to offset the failures,
which will occur naturally to some
extent, in the payment of the pledges
already secured.
With deep appreciation,
E. J. Jones, Chairman.

G., S, Burk in K. G. Work

C. S. Burk, formerly in the land
business here, will go into the K. G.
work at Fort Crook and Fort Omaha,
according to a letter recently received
from him by Chas. Vaughn. Mr..
Burke was an active member of st.
Edwards Council Knights of Colum-
bus while here, and is very much in
terested in the work of the order.
In his letter he says
Omaha and Nebraska conducted
a very successful campaign for the
X. C. war fund. They raised $751;
900 in Omaha and S225,000 in the
state. Their are two army posts here,
the Signal Corps training school at
FIT. Omaha and the regular army post
at Fl. Crook. We are preparing to
erect halls in both places and will
start this week. Tehy have drafted
me to supervise the construction and
the operation of them after they are
up. It is splendid work and I am
very glad to have part in it. Was
over at Camp Dodge at Des Moines
about ten days ago and had very
pleasant visit for couple of days
with Captain Neil Cronin, who is
we'll known to all the members at
Morris. He makes a splendid officer
and the army life has put him in
tip top shape. He is greatly inter-
ested in his work and you would
think he had never done anything
else.
Returning to Omaha was like go
ing home. We are very comfortably
settled here and anticipate a very
pleasant residence here. We hope,
too, that we will have an opportunity
of getting back to Morris from time
to time and renewing the very pleas
ant friendships we had there"

Morris People Should Eat Pie
DaiIv

Pie is wholesome, combining both
fruit and grain. Those who have
trouble digesting pie should take
ONE SPOONFUL simple buckthorn
bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in
Adler-i-ka. This fushes the ENTIRE
bowel tract, removes foul matter
which poisoned your stomach for
months and relieves ANY CASE sour
stomach, gas or constipation and
prevents appendicitis. Leaves stom-

US. COMPETITION FEAR
OF INSURANCE CHIEFS
Plan to Mold Opinions So Ma
tiCnalization of Life Busi-
ness May Not Come

That the United States Government
had applied the principle of life insur-
orcc TO the functions of national life
as no other nation had succeeded in
doing and that its achievement has been
almost a miracle was emphasized in an
address yesterday by NJ. Albert Linton,
vice president OF the Provdent Life and
Trust Company at the seventh annual
meeting of the company's general agents
al the home office. Commenting upon the
fact that the Government Bureau of
War Risk Insurance had written in six
months $4,000, 100000 of insurance on
A group Of 1.750,000 persons, Mr.. Linton
characterized the task as stupendous.
Fourteen billions" he said, "is the
total amount of ordinary insurance writ
ten by the companies I'm the last seven
years and is 20 per cent of the total
ordinary insurance now in force in old
lire companies. The average amount OF
Insurance for each person insured in
the companies is not far from $4,000 as
against $500 under the Government
pian. Will civilian life insurance some
day be nationalized and the Government
take over the writing of new business,
simply permitting the companies to ma
ture their outstanding polcies?"
Discussing this question, Mr.. Linton
expressed the belief that neither in eff
fciency nor low cost would Government
insurance for civilians ever measure up
TO what the companies have attained.
The principle of mutual life insurance,
he said. as developed in the United States
leaves little need for Government -owned
civilian insurance. our immediate
task" he said, "ls to nerform true serv-
!cc that will make II impossible for pub
lie opinion TO support any other organi-
cation that might, for political motives,
attempt to replace us"
