Strong Arm Methods
Upon One Man Who Had
Failed to Buy Bonds


Guy Matlock last evening drove
home his arguments as te why every
one should have Liberty Bonds or
Thrift Stamps. Said arguments con-
sisted of a bunch of knuckles and he
drove them right into the eye of Dave
Williams so that he couldn't help but
feel the weight and force of the ar
gument.
Williams. according to common re-
port has consistently refused to sup
port war work with his money and
last evening Matlocll encountered him
in front of the Welch cigar store on
Court street. He asked him point
blank whether he had purchased any
Liberty Bonds Williams answered in
the negative and gave as his reason
financial inability. Matlock is said
to have asked him then whether he
had any Thrift Stamps. Williams again
admitted he had not purchased any.
stating he could not afford it,
Couldn't you even buy one rs cent
stamp?" Matlock asked. ''Well. 1
might but l haven't the other is
said to have answered.
At this point Matlock is said to-
have expressed his, opinion with more
force than elegance, the opinion be-
ing that Williams was a no-good,
blankety, blank. pro-German. He
followed his verbal attack with a right
swing which laid Williams eye open
A second punch made williams think
of his feet and he got them in motion
without more ado.
