The problem of being dressed just
right and at the same time cool and
comfortably on the hot summer days
has been solved by New York de-
signer. He, for twas man who did
it, utilized khaki kool cloth in this
distinctive Eton model that is suit
able for wear upon almost every oc-
casion. 1.-The material, the low neck
and the long, loose sleeves all tend
to make it a perfect summer cos
tune.

People Of Ninth District To Be
Given Opportunity to Pur-
chase "0ver he Counter"
. PATRIOTISM RELIED ON
Personal Solicitation and Salesman

Of Counties Adopt Method.

The quality of patriotism is so firm
ly intrenched in the hearts OF the peo-
pie Of the Ninth Federal Reserve Dis
trict that in nearly ninety per cent
Of the two hundred and Lightweight
counties constituting this district the
people Will have the opportunity to
step up to the counter and do their
bond buying without personal solicit
tatiOn.
In none of the other Federal Re-
serve Districts is such a plan being
attempted, but the executive commit
tee of the Ninth District feels conf

dccce it is reposilg in the people Of
this district when it invites them to
do their own bond buying over the
counter, ard dispensing thereby al
most entirely with personal solicita-
ton and craftsmanship.
Good morning, neighbor How
| much money does our Government
| need from me in this Fourth Liberty
Loan?"
That is the question fully million
residents Of this Ninth District are
expected to ask as they step into their
usual polling places or some other
centrally located headquarters on the
opening of the Fourth Liberty Loan
campaign.
And the man behind the counter
will say after consulting his card in
| dex:
well, Mr.. Jones, our Government
is looking to you this time for a loan
of about $1,000"
And the good American purchaser
is relied upon to reply:
Call right neighbor, that sounds
like a fair allotment to me. Just
hand over the necessary papers and
will sign up"
This method of bond selling is not
made compulsory throughout the dis
trict, but the district committee, hav-
ing had considerable experience, and
after much consideration decided to
recommend "over the counter" sales
to all county organizations and near
ly ninety per cent of the county
chairmen sent in word that they
would adopt this plan.
This unique development is regard
ed as probably the highest compli-
ment that could be paid to the practi-

A MAN OF ROYAL ASPECT.
The Word "Effort" Never Used in
Speaking of o'conneII, Said ="
Wendell Phillips.

Few orators have been so fortunate
i, as Daniel O'Connell in their physical
appeal to the senses, writes Claude
Bowers in his book. "The Irish Ora
tors" Grattan, Curran, Emmett. Shiel
and Meagher were small men, not the
least impressive to the eye. O'Connell
was man of royal aspect. His voice
was seductively musical-the most
musical, according to Disraeli ever
heard in the House of Commons.
1t was soft, of great compass, capa-
BILE of expressing every Imaginable
emotion. His eyes, light in color AMI
full, flashed or beamed or burned, ~
cording to the sentiment expressed.
His contemporaries all mention the ex-
pressibility of his mouth. His gestures
were free and bold, not in the least
suggestive of elocution and yet infinite
ly graceful and apt.
There was nothing in his manner
indicative Of preparation. His manner
was easy and without effort. Wendell
Phillips who heard him, says in his
lecture: I'VE used to say of Webster,
This Is great effort of Everett, IT
is a beautiful effort but you never
use the word effort in speaking of

would not make an effort"

ice of the church and following his
academic courses at st. Louis college
IN Menin, prepared for university at
Roulers seminary, where he gradual
ed with high honors in 1885 and then
entered the American college at Lou
vain, where he was student for
three years, taking his orders in Au-
gust, 1883. He left his homeland in
the following September, coming di-
rect to Montana, which has since been
his field of labor.
His first year in the priesthood was
spent in Helena, at the episcopal res
ldence, from which he gave his atten-
ton to the outlying parishes, preach
ing regularly at Bozeman, Livingston,
Great Falls and other places. 1t was
during this year that the foundation
of the first Catholic church in Great
Falls was laid. In 1889 he was trans
ferred to Bozeman, where he remained
eighteen months, during which time
church was erected in White SULPHUR
Springs. From Bozeman he went to
Miles City, where he had Park, yell
lowstone, Custer and Dawson counties
as his parish, and was later located in
Livingston.
In January, 1899, he took charge of
st. Peters parish in Anaconda. At
that time the church was unfinished
and debt of $4,000 burdened the con-
gregation. Under his leadership, the
building was completed and the debt
discharged and the church provided
with what is said to be the finest bell
in the state. He was pastor of St.
Peters for two and one-half years,
when he was transferred to St. Pauls,
where, through his efforts, the present
rectory was completed in 1902, and
st. Pauls school the following year
1t is due to his efforts more than any,
thing else that in numbers, working
organization and charitable efficiency,
that st. Paul's congregation has be-
come one of the strongest in Montana.
Father Coopman has been identi-
fed with Anaconda for nineteen years.
His energy as business administra-
tor is known to all, as are his efforts
toward the welfare of his people. His
observation-disclosures and impartial cor
diality have endeared him to all
classes, irrespective of creed In his

The Fighting
Sixty-ninth--A
Historic Regiment
What's the Use Of Naming It the
Hundred and Sixty-Fifth?
The People Will Al
ways Know It's
the Sixty-ninth

The regiment is historic regiment;
and it is not we'll to blot out history
says the Newark, N. j., Monitor.
1t is far better to build up history
and fame around regiment. This fills
the regiment with fighting spirit
with a driving morale. 1t inspires the
men and urges the officers to deeds
of daring and death. All nations have
found it profitable to nurse the glori-
Gus record of chosen body of troops.
There are names of regiments which
fill the pages upon which their record
is written with glory.
The Sixty-Ninth is an institution. 1t
has already glorious record. 1t is
writing still more glorious chapter
in that record. From the heart of the
great city of New York the Sixty
Ninth comes. 1t represents the Celtic
element Of the population of the metro
politan city-those exiled Irish who
came in the black year of the famine,
their sons and their daughters who
have grown up in free America, low
ing their country passionately. Their
love is voiced with gratitude-and it
is glorified in the fierce valor of the
race. With a heart and hand they
fight the battles of generous America.
America is their country!

Ninth District and is an outgrowth Of
the individual allotment plan genet
ally practiced in this district in Tho
third Liberty Loan campaign.
When the individual allotment plan
first was taken under consideration
there were suggestions and insinua-
tions that it savored - coercion but
1t was put into effect with such care
and diplomacy that these insinuations
were speedily dissipated as it was
seen that the individual allotment
plan had had its ambition only that
every individual should do his just
share. no more, no less. In each
community local committees met
weeks prior to the actual opening Of
the third campaign and checked over
the residents Of their respective COM
munitfes, seeking to gain an intel
ligent idea of what each individual In
the community should take in bonds
as his or her just share.
In some sixteen of the two hundred
and Lightweight counties the local
committees went even farther with
this plan and instead of merely arm
ing their statesmen with an intelligent
idea of the individuals buying power,
the committee sent notices to each
prospective bond purchaser asking
them to call ct certain centrally 10.

purchase the amount of bonds allotted

TO BUSINESS MEN

Realizing the District is tagging be-
hind in its subscriptions to the fourth
Liberty loan, A. Lisner, president OF
the PaIais Royal. has added 200 per
cent 10 his original subscription Of
$4,000. He states that he wishes TO
set a precedent for other Washing
ton business men to follow on Liberty
loan day.
Liberty loan day is a day for all Of
us to stop and consider our duty to
the Government" said Mr.. Lsner.
"Have I assisted the Government
to the limit of my ability? This
should be the thought in every mind
on this day" he continued.
"Right-thinking people cannot neg
Iect or escape this great moral obII-
cation and have a clear conscience. II
they will stop to realize how import
ant a duty this is.
'Tf we do our best on this loan, we
may save the lives of thousands OF
our soldiers, and many months-or
even yeaTs-Of war and its suffering
am today adding $4,000 for the
fourth loan, and hope that as many as
can do so will buy again and exert
every effort to assist the District Of
Columbia loan committee to drive the
District total above our quota"
