ures won't push our boys across the Rhine. 1t is up
to us to buy bonds with every uninvested dollar we
own, plus every dollar we can save by careful frugal
living for six months to come.
You don't have to pay all cash for your bonds. You
can make your first payment from cash in the bank,
and take care of the balance out of your daily,
weekly or monthly savings.
The forced saving you do now will mean a nice nest
egg later, for the bonds you buy now and pay for as
you 90 along, will prove a splendid investment that
will pay YOU a good interest every six months. After
the war, the bondswill be worth more than you paid
for them. Don't hesitate to do your duty and do it
quickly. Don't let the SON 90 down."
The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1918-09-27

On these days everyone will be given an opportunity
to step up and buy bonds without being solicited to
do so, Places will be designated where volunteer
subscriptions will be received. These places will be
announced in the papers and by signs. Your card will
be on file there. Cards of those who do not volunteer
will be used for active solicitation, which will begin
Monday, Sept. 3Oth. No one will be overlooked.
Do not wait for some one to come after your sub
%scription. Show that you, too, can volunteer for your
Country'S service-iust as our boys over there did.

TOLL GATES THERE ABOLISHED

The following article on the pass
ing of toll gates from Popular Me-
chanics will be of interest to the peO-
pie of Boone County:
An instance of the abandonment of
toll gates, which is particularly graf
flying to motorists. is found on high
way extending across Franklin COun-
ty and into adjoining counties in
Southern Pennsylvania.
''0n the stretch of about forty miles
there were formerly eight toll gates,
which necessarily were a source of an
noyance to all person using this thor
oughfare-One of the main arteries
of travel from Baltimore and Philadel-
phia to the west. After persistent
agitation by motor club whose mem
bers frequently used this road the
state and county authorities were in
duced to purchase it, the price being
$4,000. As soon as the road became
public property the toll gates were
abolished"

on THE HOME STRETCH

Columbia entered upon the last
week of the Fourth Liberty Loan
campaign today with over a sixth of
the quota still to be subscribed. Boone
County has more than a fifth of its
quota still to be taken up.
With the campaign tagging as it
has been all along, the subscriptions
reported Saturday for the whole
county were about one-fourth of the
amount that will have to be subscrib-
ed each day before the goal can be
reached.
This is the critical moment. Ger
many is suing for peace now because
pie think that they have subscribed
and it wants to make the terms as
favorable as possible. If the Liberty
Loan is not subscribed, the kaiser will
be spurred onto more fighting or to
hold out for better peace terms. The
German government will be quick to
grasp any chance it has for raising
the morale of its citizens and soldiers
so that they will fight on.
This week is the last stretch for
the Liberty Loan-the home stretch
and the one that counts. Many peo-
pie thingk that they have subscribed
the most they can; but if they will
lookl over their shoulders and see the
vision of me kaiser and his army rae
ing along and about to pass them on
the way to victory, they will prove
themselves the thoroughbreds that
Boone Countians have proved them
selves in the past. they will put their
last bit of energy into the contest, |
and beat the enemy to the goal.

own borders. With a short line to de
fend, and her army partly recovered
from Foch's thrashing, the German
appetite for peace might be depend
ed upon to grow less keen.
The only commission necessary
to arrange for the evacuation is
already in existence. 1t consists
of Ludendorff for the Germans,
and Foch for the Allies. If Lu-
dendorff can't or won't arrange
the evacuation, FOch willard
when the operation is over the
German military position will be
weaker, not stronger, than it is
now. That is after all the chief
necessity for a speedy peace.
