90 --that Day Is
Germany's Doom"

There is one simple easy way by which every family
in the United States stand and be counted-by
which every man. woman and child enlist in the hun
dred million, al-American army which the Germans
dread.
One of the most significant utterances made during
the entire made by prominent German olclal
when America cast her lot with the allies:
eve do not fear the American soldiers because they
cannot arrive in time what fear is the intelligence and
devotion of one hundred million Americans trained to
faith in individual initiative. The day that those hundred
millions act one, that day is Germany's DOOM"
Today Germany is fighting with a and more
desperate energy because she fears that the American SOL
diers will arriver in time
But Germany still refuses to believe that hundred
million people will "act one"
How can we prove it to her? How can we strike to
the heart of the Hun? How convince the kaiser
that the day of his doom approaches?
That way is to lend our money to country.
By War Saving Stamp; costing you until February
l, 1918, $4.12, worth $5 on January l, 1923
If you cannot pay for it in immediate cash buy u.
S. Thrift Stamp for 25 cents, and keep buying them
until you have It, Then add few cents in cash and
change them for the War Saving Stamp
Begin to do this now. Save every cent you can and
put it into these stamps.
The money will be used Immediately to provide guns,
ammunition, food clothing and other supplies for sol
ders and sailors.
This will be bad news for the kaiser-he worst he has
heard-for it will prove to him that ready to
"act one" It will prove that not only men, but
every dollar have is behind country 1t will prove
that in the to win and that we shall stay in
it until we do win. 1t will prove that thoroughly
unanimously determined, that country our homes and
loved shall longer lie under the dark menace
OF German domination and enslavement.

a few plutocratic patriots to tho pcniten.

that, but we wonder II the peppery sens

penditure of thirty or forty millions In the
space Of few months and not waste a
dime or two. There is an old adage to the
effect that haste makes waste. It has

THE NEWEST AMENDMENTS
Additions to the United States Constitu-
tion Since 1870

n TosT current history books have not been
lyl revised recently enough to contain the
latest amendments to the Constitution Of the
United States. Several readers point out
that these are not readily accessible and ask
for the oiIicial text, which we herewith re-
print.
The Sixteenth Amendment. the first to be
passed since 1870. was declared in force
February rs, 1918, as follows
The Congress shall have power to lay and
collect taxes incomes, from whatever source
derived, without apportonment among the sew
erai States. and without regard to any census
or enumeration.
The Seventeenth Amendment, declared in
force May 81. 1918. is as follows;
First The Senate of the United States shall bs
COMPOSED Of two Senators from each State elected
BY the spS have one The aectorn.n nnG a each
state shall have the qualifications requisite Tor
electors Of the most numerous branch OF the
s'ssss Second When vacancies happen in the ,.nr..
snthority Of such state shall Issue Writs ~
10 MI q sa' any STATE may 5GvSs That
sxecutiye thereto to make temporary appontmene
until the people MI the vacancies BY election. az
Third This amendment shall not be No CON.
.,rued as to AFFECT. the election or term ~, Smr
Senator chosen before It becomes valid a. part
Of the Constitution
One other amendment is before the statss
that providing for nationwide prohibition
which II accepted by three-fourths OF the SOW
