IEND-NOT sPEND-YOUR MONEY

If you lend your money to the gov
eminent, you may be quite sure that
it is going to be used for some ma
tional purpose-to prosecute the war
successfully, to care for, equip, arm
acd supply our soldiers in France, to
bc used by our navy in Kidding the
seas of the murderous U-boats.
But if you spend your money even
with the belief that by putting it into
the channels of trade others into
whose hands it comes will lend it to
tie government, you will have done
something the patriotism of which may
be very questionable.
First, you have withdrawn from the
supply of material of the nation some
thing to replace which in the market
will require labor and material which
should be devoted to war purposes.
Second, the person to whom you pay
your money may also use it to pur-
chase things requiring material and
labor which should be devoted to war
purposes. An the person to whom he
pays it may repeat the operation.
But when you lend your money to
the government instead of spending il.
you will at once lessen the drain II
{; certain extent on Our country's re-
sources, its material, its labor, and
as transportation facilities, and in ad.
dition you supply your government
with money to be used in winning the
war.
Every purchase of a Liberty Loan
Bond is an individual act toward bring

The defendants of the compatriots
of Washington and Paul Jones are

the defendants of the compatriots OF
LAFAYETTE and Rochambeau. The time
and opportunity have come for ma
ton to pay a great debt of gratitude
for service rendered in great national
need and America is paying France
the debt she long has owed.
In the Revolutionary War for the
freedom of America the French fought
on American soil under the command
of an American. Today in the war for
the freedom of France and for the
preservation of liberty to America, and
indeed to all the world, Americans
fight on French soil under the supreme
Command of a Frenchman. The honors

GERMANY FURNISHES THE PROOF

Every development since our entry
into the war has justified and proved
the wisdom, the imperative necessity
Of Americas participation Every
German success and every German
failure have shown how necessary to
the safety and peace of the world
the defeat of Germany is Every foot
OF ground Germany has been forced
to give us, every foot of land she has
seized, have demonstrated the abso-
Lutte necessity of defeating that sinister
and intolerable thing called German

EVERY AMERICANS DUTY.

To work, economic, and lend money
to the government is the duty of ev-
cry American.
Hundreds OF thousands of our men
have been called to arms and taken
away from the productive forces of the
country.
Hundreds of thousands of others
have been diverted from producing
things used in peace to producing
things used in war.
In the face of this lessened produc-
tive force and production a great and
unusual drain upon our resources is
made by our army and navy and our
allies.
Work and speed-up production to
make up for the lessened production;
economic in consumption to lessen as
much as possible the drain upon our
resources; lend your money to your
government to prosecute this war sue
cessfully and make our soldiers DOW
erful, effective and victorious.
Every American can do an individ-
ual service to his country by working.
saving and buying Liberty Bonds.

THE DOUBLE EFFECT OF
ECONOMY.


When an American citizen, instead
of spending $500 for something he
wants, denies himself and lends the
money to the government he performs
a double service.
First, he furnishes the government
with 500 to use in the prosecution OF
the war.
Second, he has relieved to the extern
of 500 the drain on our goods and
services" that is materials and labor
10 make the article or articles he
would have bought, or to manufac-
-ture others to take their place in the
markets would require materials and
labor. In addition, to get the article
to him labor and freight space would
be required By doing without the ar
ticle, he has left free a certain amour.
of material to be used for war pur-
poses, a certain amount of labor to
be used in the same way, and he has
also relieved to a certain extent the
TRANSFORMATION facilities of the conn
try.
This may not be much in the indi.
vidual case, but when hundreds OF
thousands and millions of Americans
pursue this course it means millions
and millions of dollars loaned the gov
eminent, tremendous quantities of ma
t"rials left for uses of the nation in
this war, millions of hours of labor
free to do war work, and vast
amount of freight space free for ma
tional uses.
These sacrifices are easy to make:
are small and trivial compared to the
sacrifices that our soldiers and sail
ors make daily while they offer con-
stantly their lives for their country,
the greatest sacrifice Of all.

AN AMERICAN PEACE.

There can be no peace with honor
or safety to ourselves or to posterity,
except a just peace. and there can and
VII be no other peace. Work for
peace accomplishes nothing but the
hampering of our effort, the delay OF
the real peace, and a greater toll. OF
death of Americas fighting men, Our
duty Is to war for q just and right
eous peace; to work or speak for am
other peace is aid and comfort to
Germany-iniury and disloyalty to our
boys in France.

employees, who have sought greater
immunity from military service in
more essential war industries, II is
well to ask just how essential the
press is in winning the war, says
Leslies Weekly. The War Industries
Board puts newspapers and periodi'
calls in class 1 in the priority list
which furnishes the basis for in
dustrial exemption from the draft
Industries grouped in class l are OF
exceptional importance in connection
with the prosecution Of the war
Those grouped in ,. 8 and will
have precedence over all industries
not appearing in the priority list,
but the board says distinctly that
"as between these three classes,
however. there shall be no complete
or absolute preference" This means
that newspapers and periodicals are
practically on the same footing as
the industries and plants of classes
and 3 in demonstrating the essen
tial quality of their product.
What service has the press al
ready rendered in this war? The
national publications broke down so
effectually all sectional barriers that
when the time came TO declare wal
upon Germany it was the act OF a
united nation. Newspapers and
periodicals have been the most pow
erful single force in popularizing
support of the Liberty loans, anC
Secretary McAdoo has testified Il

They have so educated the publ
mind on the issues of the war ant

no opposition. Had the newspaper

task of the press in preparing II
