SAFE AS GIBRALTAR
Rv RAY STANNARD BAKER.

l look upon the Liberty loan not so much as duty, although it is a duty, nor as a favor to the govern mcnt-an investment as safe as Gl- braltar at good interest rate is sure lv no favor to anybody but the in- vestor-I look. upon it rather as an opportunity for us to get together all of us-in a great and noble under taking.
 MT. Wilson has asked us to help make the world "safe for democracy" Net all of us can fight. In my town of Amherst only about 60 men 50 far out of a population of 5. 300 have ac- tuallv gone into the army. That leaves 5.44O of us at home. The same proposition holds good in every town in America.
 The Liberty lean supplies us the great mass of us who must remain be- hind-the opportunity of doing some thing vital, something really impor-, tant. in helping tc win. We can lend a little of our money to the Nation that the Nation may send our boys 0 the front to fight the battles of lib- ery and democracy. If these young men-the best national asset we have willingly offer their blood for the great cause, I for one welcome the opportunity of supporting them to the utmost.

BRITISH REG AIN GROUND.
Drive Germans From Neuye Eg,isc, and Hepuise Four
 Attacks

London, April 13.-The Germans were driven out of Neuve EgIise by the British this morning, according to the report from Field Marshal Haig's headquarters tonight. Four attacks against the British southwest of Bailsuive also were beaten off. The statement reads:
 "As the result of fighting last night in the neighborhood of Neuvc Eglise the enemy succeeded in forcing his way into the village. This morning he was furiously counter attacked by our troops, and driven out, leaving a mum Der of prisoners, including a battalion commander, in our hands. Another attack by the enemy later in the morn ing was repulsed.
 "1n the course of the morning a number of other attacks were made by the enemy at different points. Three separate attacks against our line southwest west and north of Merville WI in ach case repulsed after heavy fighting. South of Merterne the en- emy was successfully driven back, and four attacks launched against our po- sitions southeast of Bailieul were beaten off. Heavy casualties were in ficted on the enemy in these several unsuccessful attacks.
 This afternoon another attack de veloped between the -Becque river, southwest of Mettern, and severe fighting has taken place on the whole of this front.
 "On other parts of the British trout the day passed without any incident of importance"
 Achievements Reach Haig.
 Washington, April 13-"Both French and British re-inforcements are reach ing Sir Douglas Haig's army in Elan ders, which now is in strong posi- tion to meet further German attacks,' Mai Gen. James B. McLachland, Brit ish Military atache here, said tonight in reviewing the situation on the northern part of the western battle line. While the Germans have scored, they have not done as we'll as they had hoped, General MaI4achland said, and each hour their advance is delay ed makes victory for them less like ly. By failing to break thru, the Ger mans find themselves in an awkward barrow salient. and for that reason the battle is bound to continue with great ferOcity.

Like Being Hit
By Rattle Snake
Says that every time you cut
or pick at a corn you
invite lockjaw


You reckless men and women who are
pestered with corns and who have at
least once a week invited an awful death
from lockjaw or blood poison are now
told by a Cincinnati authority to use a
drug called freezone, which the moment
few drops are applied to any corn,
the soreness is relieved and soon the
entire corn, root and all, lifts right out
with the fingers, without one particle
of pain.
This freezone is a sticky substance
which dries the moment it Is applied
and just loosens the corn without in
flaming or even irritating the surround
ing tissue or skin. He says a quarter
of an ounce of freezone will cost very
little at any of the drug stores, but this
is sufficient~to rid ones feet Of every
hard or soft corn OF callus.
You are positively warned that cut
ting or picking at a corn is a suicidal
habit Advt)
