Listen, Al, Get a Liberty Bond
Before Wise Alexis Hog Them
if You Had Took My Advice You Would Have Sank the
Whole 500 in Them Last FALL and Be
Drawing Int. To-day
By Ring W. Lardner

Friend Al:
Well, Al, am sorry to hear about
you getting MIXED out Of that money,
but still and ali, you ought to be
thankful they didn't get you for the
whole 500 instead of just $50, and |
don't see how anybody only half wit
could invest one-half of their savings
in gag like that, and if man really
did invest maggot that would draw
u-boats up on top of the water they
Frank Daniels for a trillion dollars,
cash money, and they wouldn't have to
hot-foot from house to house like they
was trying to pedal a ball-bearing po-
tato peeler or something.
But listen, AL. If was YOU I
wouldn't go hireiag no atty and try
to get your money back, because that
would be just Aike throwing good
money after bad money, as they say,
because by this time the guy is prob
ably hideing in Russia somewheres and
has growed beard so as he will look
like everybody else, and even if you
wouldn't know for sure if it was him
or kerensky or this here Don Cossack.
But instead of that, AL, l would
just forget it and if you want to keep
the U-boat elevator stock or whatever
you call it, for souvenir, why 0 X,
but you better do something with
that other $50 before somebody else
comes along and sells you a season
ticket to the Postoffice. and if I was
you, Al, l would do what 1 told you
to do last fall, and that is buy on~
of these Liberty Bonds with the $50
and if you had of took my advice you
would of sank the whole 500 in them
last fall and now you wouldn't be
crying over sour milk as they say, but
you would have safe investment
that you don't only have to think
about it twice per annum, and that's
when you go to the bank and collect
the int. money, and the int. money is
money you can spend on something
you want and not something you got
to have. because it comes like kind
of a bonus from the govt for helping
them out wher they needed it,
Buying Liberty Bond, All, is some
thing like buying a ticket to the bal!
game, only there's whole lot Of differ
ence. When a man buys a ticket to the
ball game he is helping to pay the ball
players their salary. but he don't get no
pleasure out of thinking about that,
but all the pleasure he gets is setting
up there and watching the game, and

Drive Begun Against
Income AK Slackers

WASHINGTON, April 12.-All tax
payers were called upon to-day by In
tcrnal Revenue Commissioner Roper to
help round up 'tax slackers" who have
not made returns to revenue collectors.
In a nation wide drive against delin-
quents ttc Commissioner expects to
gather millions of dollars taxes.
"All delinguents will be promptly
and vigorously prosecuted" said the
Comm issoner in statement: "There
is no difference between the Stacker in
military service and the Stacker from
tax duty Both in effect are disloyal
to. their government"
At the same time the Commissioner
suggested That persons who neglected
10 file re.urns by April and hasten to
fulfil their duty now may avoid the
usual penalties and danger Of prosecu
ton He added:
'If n taxpayer has reason to believe
that any person known to him is a tax
Stacker he should report his name to
the collector of his district or to the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
This kind Of cooperation constitutes
real war service. 1t will make for the
equalization Of the tax burden"

tain specimens of the physical lmple-
ments With which the American. Brit

nation in order to inspire the pubic

cation at the opening, which is to
be graphic representation OF the
tools with which democracy fights.

jefferson Day dinner at the national
Democratic Club, will visit the exhibit
during the evening and make an ad-
dress. Governor Whitman has prom

will be met. Colonel Phelan has as
signed full company to guard Lib
erty Land during the display
The placing of the exhibit in the
home of the old 69th--now the 165th-
gives a special touch of realism to the
war display. Many of the implements
shown are such as are now actually
being used on 1.-The frontier of free
dom" by the men of the 69th.

II his team has a bad day and he is
disgusted with them ne can't go down
to the box office and get his money back
and if he even asked for it he would
be lucky if they didn't bust him in
the Jaw. And, of course, if its a good
game and he enjoys it he don't want
his money back and wouldn't get it
if he did.
But when you buy Liberty Bond.
AL. you feel good, because you know
you are helping to keep Uncle Sans
players from starving to death and YOU
also know they will be up on their
toes all the while and doing their best
and you know your team is going to
win, and then after the game is over
no matter how much you enjoyed
watching your team win, Uncle Sam re-
funds your money, besides giving you
int. on it all the time he has got it.
Can you beat that, al? I'll say you
can't
So don't be a sucker. AL, but take my
advice this time and get hold of one
of these bonds before the wise alexis
hogs them all and don't throw away
that other $50 on a patent electric flee
chaser or something. Your Pal,

Credited to Banks

man of the Liberty Loan Committee,
yesterday explained that it is possible
for one to subscribed bonds in booths
anywhere and yet have the purchase
credited to the quota of any bank de-
sired He said:
'Mv attention has been drawn
to the fact that many persons are
still under a misapprehension as
to the effect of subscriptions filed at
the various booths throughout the
city.
"In order to make the situation en-
tirely clear. wish to say that all
subscriptions made at any of the
Liberty Loan booths. whether re-
ported by the Women's Committee
or by other organizations, will count

TICKETS IN
{. CHICAGO

Voters appeared at the polls Of the
various precincts in East Chicago and
Indiana Harbor with easy regularity
during the forenoon, The rush is antici-
pated between 4 and o'clock.
No trouble is being experienced in the
precincts where the voting machines are
in use. The manipulation for voting IS
simple and there seems TO be as full OPP
portunity for the spit vote as under the
printed ballot plan. The fact remains,
however. that appearances indicate that
a large percentage of voters are voting
straight party tickets.
There are several election boards In
the city at which upon organization no
democrats appeared and which are filled
By erstwhile republicans.
Even in the larger precincts II IS be-
lieved that where machines are lin use
the votes will be tabulated and recorded
within an hour after the machines are
opened. In other. words. all precincts
using machines Will without doubt be
all through with their work by 8
o'clock.
In nearly all precincts the tubercular

ton and workers say that the per cent
