War Savings.

Thrift Stamps and War Savings
Stamps are the most democratic OF
investments and America expects ev-
cry American to show love OF repub-
lican institutions by investing in this
democratic security. The aggregate
amount OF the investments and the
number of inve stors in these War
Savings securities are in way the
answer OF the people of this great
Democracy to the call of the cause OF
democracy thruout the world and the
vindication of civilization and hu-
manity.
They afford every person, however
humble and however small his means,
the opportunity to contribute his part,
to do his bit, in this gre at struggle
against the military masters OF Ger
many who seek to dominate the world
in contempt of justice and right and
freedom and without conscience and
without mercy.
Surely every American desires to
have a part in the defeat of autocracy
and the success Of liberty and right.

War Gardens Worth 100000
900 Last Year.

The nation. wide survey located
nearly 3 900. 900 gardens. aggregating
10000 acres of city and town land
under cultivation.
As these gardens were titled inten-
sively, and the products had relative
ly high value, being figured in terms
of retail prices which would have
otherwise been paid for food purchas-
ed, it is estimated that their yield
was valued at $3.50, 900, 900, or 81. so
per family.
The glass-iar manufacturers sold
about 100000 canning jars this
year, and a survey of the household
canning in 20 typical towns thruout
the country showed that housewives
used but one new jar to over 81 old
jars already on hand.
On this basis the housewives of the
country put up nearly 100000, 900
quart jars OF fruits and vegetables,
which is believed to be three times
as much as was ever packed before.

Never Saw Snakes.

U. U. Marine Training Camp
That St. Patrick never saw any snakes
in Ireland. let alone drive then. out,
is the claim of Patrick Murphy, ma
tive of Ireland and sergeant in the
Marine Corps here.
Snakes. declares Murphy, were un-
known to the sons of Erin until one
DR.. Guithers in 1773 imported two
small reptiles, then considered a ca
riosity.
The first man to really see snakes
in Ireland" says Sergeant Murphy,
was friend OF DR.. Guithers. This
occurred one night when the man,
a habitual drinker, awakened out OF
a drunken sleep and saw the DOCTORS
pets crawling over the floor of his
home. DR.. Guithers, after that.
claimed snakes to be positive cure
for drunkenness, but St. Patrick?why
he never even saw one."

glect in preserving and increasing the
quantity of farm manures has result
ed in a great drain upon the natural
resources of the American farmer.
The lack OF intelligent care OF waste

been responsible for the neglect OF

Fairbanks a Hero
Even to His Valet

Dumas son once remarked
of Guyde Maupassant, the cele-
brated 0. Henry, of Paris, that
he was a hero even to his valet,
and thereby created an immor-
tai phrase. Triangle hasn't
much to say about this, beyond
remalking that Dumas should
have seen Douglas Fairbanks,
starring in Reggie Mixes In. -
In this play, Fairbanks, who
already is hero to two-thirds
of America with the other third
on the way, plays character
wealthy enough to support a
valet in addition to himself.
To this valet, played by Joseph
Singleton, he is a hero. But
the circumstance lends a new
complexion to the casual re-
mark of Dumas.
To begin with, Fairbanks
knows his valet by the affec-
tionate nickname of "old pickle
face" Hekicks him down
stairs with a bundle of grips
he mocks him when he weepS
he torments him when the poor
old fellow falls asleep on strenu.
Gus duty; he makes him dress
liNe a gangster to accompany
him down into the slums; he
teaches him to chew tobacco; he
gets rid of a glass of whiskey
by pouring it into the old mans
pocket. And yet the old boy
loves him. Yea, verify, he wor-
ships the ground his young
master walks on.
