The loan will be three billion doll

reserving the right to allot bonds up
to the full amount of any oversubscrip-
ton.
Ninth Federal Reserve district to sub
scribe minimum Of sos, 100000. But
A. R. ROGERS, district director has
apportioned the loan by states so as
to insure $125,000,O00.
The bonds will bear interest at IA
per cent per annum. They will be dat
ed and will bear interest from May 9,
1918 and will mature September Is,
1928. The interest dates will be Sept
Is and March IS, the first coupon bear
ing interest for 129 days.
The bonds are not convertible and
are not subject to call for redemption
before matured. The fact that the
Government has made these ten year
bonds is taken by many as an indica-
ton that the officials at Washington
are not looking for the war to last
many years.
The bonds carry the same exemp-
ton from taxation as those in the Sec
ond Liberty loan. Third Liberty Loan
bonds which have been owned by a
person for six months prior to the date
Of his death will be accepted at par
and accrued interest in payment of
federal Inheritance taxes. The cam
paign opened thruout the Nation Apr.
3, and closes May 4, but this is not
adhered to in the Ninth district. In
this district no selling of bonds is sup
posed to be permitted prior to April
IS. The actual selling campaign op-
ems at dawn next Monday and by mid
night Wednesday the organization ex-
ecutives expect that the Ninth district
will have subscribed its full $125,000,-
900 allotment.
The Government has provided that
the bonds may be paid for in the fol-
lowing installments:
per cent on application. 20 per
cent on May %. IS per cent on July
lS, and 40 per cent on August Is. Pay
ment in full may be made with the ap-
plication or before May 4, but bonds
will not be delivered before May 9, on
| any subscription for an amount ex.
ceeding $4,000.

Columbia, Pa, Dec. Mrs. Clara
Waller, of Marietta, who recently de-
livered an address before a public
meeting of the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' Association, and the Wom-
ans Club, of Columbia, enjoys the
distinction of being the first woman
to publicly espouse the cause of Sus-
quehanna river navigation and pre-
sent the subject before a public au-
dience.
Mrs. Waller has spent some years
in the study of the navigation prob
lem as it relates to the SuSquehanna
river and in her Investigations has
reached the conclusion that the
proposition is not visionary nor i'm
practicable. She has visited several
towns along the river and endeavor-
ed to interest the citizens in the pro-
ject, and now rejoices in the fact
that her efforts are being recognized.
She is thoroughly conversant with
the Susquehanna river and the many
distractions that are met with in
pursuing the subject, but having be-
come thoroughly convinced that the
scheme is not merely a dream, she
has kept up the agitation in the face
of ridicule and opposition from diff
ferent sources.
Now that the proposition has been
revived, Mrs. Waller is discussing
and urging the subject before pub
lie assemblies. Her address at CO.
lumbia awakened considerable inter-
est among some of the leading busi-
nessmen and plans are being made
for u mass meeting in the future,
when Mrs. Waller will be among
the speakers to advance the project.
At this meeting there will be rep
resentatives from neighboring cities
and Harrisburg has promised to send
a big delegation.
Congressman j. Hampton Moore,
president of the Atlantic Deeper
Waterways Association, has signified
his intention to be present at this
meeting and will be one of the
speakers.

She did not remind him that he
had started to come into the house.

saying good-by to Mildred and her
companion, he went out of the gate.

When do you start for Canada?"
Honora inquired of young Hilton,
as he strolled up the front path to
the house with her and Mildred.
Tomorrow, probably" he said.
II meant to leave before this-but
was detained.
81 am glad you didn't" Mildred
declared, looking up at him admir-
! ingly. For if you had, L would
not have had that spin uptown with
you. You are a wonderful driver"
II am a fast driver" he acknowl-
edged. IF l am doing anything, l
It's a way L have about every
thing"
He gaZed down meaningly into
her eyes. II WISH" he murmured,
that 1 could spend even three days
more in Fairlands."
The girl dimpled with pleasure.
There was no mistaking the mean
ing he wished his words to convey.
But you can write to Fairlands,
can't you?" she challenged.
II can-and WILL" he replied with
a bow. Thanks for the blissful
suggestion"
When he had gone and the sisters
entered the house together, Mildred
spoke impulsively.
Isn't he a genuine man of the
world? Can't you see what diff
ference there is between him and
Arthur"
"Ies," Honora agreed, promptly,
Il see a great difference between
them"
He's lots of fun to fiirt with"
Mildred said, with reminiscent
sigh. II wish there were more men
like that Life would be much
more interesting"

"Anne, dear. snatched the phone
from Wee because l wanted to hear
from the bride herself, how our Jim
mie is getting on" said Betty in her
clear vibrating voice.
But even while I was assuring
her that Jim was almost as well as
he thought himself, my lips were
trembling with the hurt of Virgin
las snub and the clever twist Betty
had given to facts in order to save
me from being hurt.
You'll come to see Jim to-mor-
row, won't you, Betty?" I asked
hopefully, "Fd like chat with you,
myself"
Maybe I'll run in and take you
out for a breath of air while Vir-
ginia is visiting with JIM" suggest
ed Betty.
Then we said good-by, and I set
my face into smile before L turned
to face my boy. But there wasn't
a smile in my heart-for in the very
way Betty was standing between
Virginia and me, l recognized the
intimacy and understanding between
them.
which shall we move, Jim-your
throne or the table?" l asked in a
voice 1 hoped was light and casual.
Meal and I will give Jimmie a
ride" laughed Phoebe, answering for
him. "Say. Anne, you're lucky that
you didn't get to speak with Wee.

Darling infant" murmured Neal
as he managed to lay his left hand
| very close to Phoebe's right for their
joint talks of swinging Jim's couch
alongside the table.
Phoebe hung her head for a mo-
ment, but that didn't hide the swirl
! of pink that rode triumphantly from
the tip of her little pointed chin
| right up to the shadows of her long
eyelashes. Then she flashed out with
an idea she considered so daring
that it left her almost breathless:
Meal, let's do every smidgin of
the work. Well wait on Anne and
Jimmie and play we're the butler and
maid. Want to?"
II want to do everything you
want" declared Neal softly-so soft
ly that again his words escaped Jim,

his own.
entered into the spirit of their
play, and dressed Phoebe up in my
best rufiled sewing apron, with
tiny twist of lace and black velvet
for a cap to crown the soft fluffiness
of her hair.
Then l devoted myself to my boy,
who had to be coaXed to eat even
his delicious little steak and mealy,
baked potato. He seemed sunk in
gloom and when / nestled against
him on the couch his response was
functory-absent-m minded.
Suddenly. when our maid" and
butler" had gone to fetch in the
sweets. Jim turned to me with an eX-
preston of what was in his heart:
"Oh, little sweetheart-if only I
really could give you servants to
wait on you. It's wonderful to see
you sit quiet and actually enjoy your
dinner. And to think I'm down-and-
out-haven't even a job"
Jim, darling-please, please! For
my sake don't think about a thing
in the world but getting WELL Next
week We'll do the third Haldane ar
ticle, and that's another hundred
dollars to add to our fat bank bal
ance-"
"It is fat" mused Jim, thanks
to my haul at the automobile race
the other day. A few winnings like
that and I wouldn't have to eat my
heart out because 1 can't find
work"
And on that terrifying reminder
of his betting and of his joy in the
gambling for stakes, the phone
sounded once more.

Advice to the LOvelorn
AN UNHAPPY GIRL-WIFE

DEAR MISS FAlRFAX:
l am 10 and married and have a
child. But l am not happy as others
are. Since the day L married life
has gone wrong with me. My hus-
band never takes me out, and he hard
ly ever works, and l am tired of him.
What made me marry young was that
my parents insisted. Everybody says
I'm nice and l could have a good
chance in life yet. Please advise me
what to do.

You are very young. my poor child.
to be facing these problems and re-
sponsibilties. There should certain
ly be limit of endurance in a wife's
dealings with her husband but ! urge
you not to be hasty in assuming that
yours cannot mend his ways. Since
you cannot at present depend on him
for companionship, why not try to
build up a life of your own? Reach
out for many friends and as many
interests as possible. Perhaps this
will make your husband more eager
to gain your respect and he Will
therefore change his course.
is THIS MOTHER TOO STRICT.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
| am II and l see a young man two
nights a week He has asked me to
objects. On Sunday nights l go to
the movies with him and do not reach
home until quarter of II. On other
evenings that l go out with him 1 get
back by $3.50 or 10. But my mother
expects me. even when l go to the
movies, to be back by 10 o'clock.
Please tell me, is my mother too
strict with me? work-if that
makes any difference.
WAITING.
No. I do not think your mother is
too strict. She might even be consid-
cred indulgent, considering your age.
For II is very young. indeed, even
though your working outside your
home doubtless makes you feel grown
up. At your age a girl still needs
regular hours and plenty OF sleep.

I answered and turned with
humping heart to Jim:

answered and turned with
humping heart to Jim:
Its for Neal-I'll go call him."
Unsteadily l made my way to the
kitchenette, so intent on my own
thoughts that until 1 was full upon
them. I didn't perceive Neal and
Phoebe. Then 1 stopped in fear, for
the sweet trusting youth of little
Phoebe as a flashing memory came
back to me of the day when Neal
and Envy had come out of the
kitchen-her hair filing and on his
face the same look of smiling trl-
umph it wore now. Neal was lean
ing back against the icechest, and
close in his arms with her head tilt
ed up and her lips softly parted for
lis kiss stood Phoebe. They didn't
see me-and as part Of the merci-
full deception L was to practice all
that evening, 1 slipped behind the
screening door and called:
'Neal-wanted at the phone"
Then-with mastery east at the
game of eyasion-east that made me
tremble anew for Phoebe-Neal be-
gan doing his part in the play Terry
had outlined to us. AS he approach
ed the point where it was his cue to
say that the job was too big for
him, but that maybe with coaching
on the accountant and bookkeeping
end of it. Jim would help out at
least till they could get another man,
l was hard put to it to keep my
teeth from chattering-Neal did it
all so well-with such JOY in his
play acting.
His concluding words rang out
nonchalantly:
IT'S like-this, Captain Winston.
I'm darn proud you thought of me,
and I'd be a bit prouder yet If were
capable of handling a job like that
of your friend. Now, 1 can't speak
for Jim, but I'll bank on him to help
you out If there's any way he can
see to do it. Let me talk to him,
and in half an hour I'll call you
with good news, l hope"
Then he turned from the phone,
but before he could say one syllable
my Jim did precisely what Terry
had counted on his loyalty to prompt.
Say, lad, is there actually some
thing | can do for Terry? Call him
back at once and say I'm on"
There was no question as to what
was required, no thought of pay;
but at the mere suggestion that he
might be able to help his friend my
generous sick boy fell neatly into
the trap Terry's affection and un-
derstanding had set for him.

War Aid First Duty,
Says r. |. Governor

PROVIDENCE, Jan. 1.-Governor R.
Livingston Beeckman, in his annual
message to the Rhode Island General
Assembly, which opened its session to-
day, urged upon the legislators that
their "frst consideration should be the
support of the nation at war" The
Governor, who returned a short time
ago from visit to the war front in Eu-
rope, devoted the greater part of his
message to this theme.
ut is," he said, "to defeat forever the
common enemy against the freedom of
democracy that we are sending to the
front the best blood and strength Of the
nation. AS I have seen our soldiers in
the many camps and forts in this coun-
try. as recently met with them on
the battlefronts in France, where they,
with our allies, face the enemy, I am
sure that Columbia is equipping great
and valiant fighting army In inteli-
gence, education. courage, physical fit
ness and moral character the soldiers
and sailors Of the United States will
be unequalled In the nations of mankind,
What we can do in their support, even
to our utmost, is small compared to
tnelr TASK and their sacrifices.
Therefore, as lawmakers of the
state, your first and chiefest considera-
tion should be the support of the nation
at war. Business is not as usual and
legislation ought not to be as usual
Conservation and necessary restraints
should be applied to it. Food, fuel, war
munitions and transportation are the
important problems which the stay-at-
homes must solve. 1t is a solemn duty
OF each state to DO its full share in the
greatest task of the nation"
AS specific war measures Governor
Beeckman recommended a continuing
appropriation which would adequately
provide for dependent families of men

service; legislation to protect soldiers
and sailors from loss or injury in lega
