EVERY WOMAN
 CAN HELP NEXT
 LIBERTY LOAN
WOman's s Committee for Twelfth Federal Reserve District to Form an
 Organization
By MRS. A. S. BALDWIN Chairman Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, Twelfth Federal
 Reserve District)

Now that we are actively in the war and our men are in the front line trenches; are being killed; are being 9assed; are being maimed for life. it would seem that every woman in the land should be in the front ranks oi the civilian workers to help the men win the war.
 Each of us has her part to play, however small 1t may be, and whether 1t be great or small it is of importance that each shall perform her part to the utmost of her ability.
 Some can buy Liberty Bonds, some can influence others to buy. Perhaps home can only help by conserving the luse of food and clothing and by econ hpmizing in household expenditures Thus hberating and augmenting the lessentials which must be sent lover there" for the use of our army and flor the destitute civilian population oi Jour allies.
 In whatever way each woman oi lthis Twelfth Federal Reserve District lean help, let her do her utmost thai I've who are farthest from the front may sustain our part of the struggle and keep for ourselves and our chfl idren the blessings and privileges we have inherited, and thus make it pos sible to win like blessings for the mil Hons who are now in actual bondage
 We should not only save to help but the great lesson to be learned also ts to do now without non-essentials and to make sacrifices SO that the labor which produces what we consider tc be even essentials may be used to produce those things which are actu ally essential for the support and safety of those who are carrying the burden of this unprecedented struggle for freedom and democracy.
 The aim of the Woman's Liberty Loan Committee is to form an organt zation which shall make the woman in every home in the land realize these conditions and her responst bility, that the message shall not reach her only from one direction, but from many, so that she shall bs brought to a full realization of her responsibility.

A BADGE OF HONOR

A Liberty Loan button is a badge of honor. RightfuIly obtained it marks tho wearer as one who has performed . distinct, definite service to the country.
 Not all can fight, not all can work directly for the Government; but in buying Liberty Loan Bond, or War Savings Stamps, every American rem deFs some service to the nation. It has been put witkin the reach and power of every citizen to aid the United States financially; it is a poor American who withholds support from tho Government, from our soldiers and sailors fronting death on battlef1elds and oceans.
 Iron crosses to German soldiers, and diamond orders exchanged be- tween Turkish and German sovereigns nGy be but the honors of atrocity. But a Liberty Loan button, simple as It iG, signifies a patriotic duty dora and is an insignia of honor.

THREE SONS ON
 THE TUSCANIA
San Francisco Woman Gave Country Three SOIdierS--One Lost With TOrpedOed
 Transport.
TWO SONS SENT TO
 FRENCH FRONT

Mrs Louise Moore of 13s First ave nue. San Francisco. knows the mean ing of war. In the front window Of her home a service flag shows three stars. Three of her sons answered the call to colors.
 And when the Tuscania was torpe- doed, with the loss Of more than one hundred American lives. her eldest son, William Moore, made the great sacrifice for his country. On the rocky coast of Ireland he lies buried in the grave which enfolds others Of his com rades in arms.
 The other two sons of Mrs. Moore who were also on the Tuscania, are listed among those saved. The Joy over their safety has been tempered only by the grief which followed the word of Williams passing
 q told those boys was sorry that there Was occasion to go to war" said Mrs. Moore, smiling through the an- guish that was her portion in the days following the Tuscania disaster. ~But I told them also," she added with a triumphant smile, that if our country was worth living in and enjoying when things were going along smoothly. it was certainly worth fighting for when it was in trouble"
 That is the spirit of American motherhood in these days of trial and sacrifice. Our country has not asked much of its young people in the way of sacrifice" said Mrs. Moore. Things have been fairly easy for most of the boys and girls of this generation Now it Is their time to show how they have appreciated all that has been given to them"
 Mrs. Moore has two other sons. one of draft age. and the other old enough to enlist but not old enough to be drafted
 Now they're crazy to go." said the brave little mother whose service flag already has one haloed star.
 Do you know the last thing the three boys did before they left?" she asked with motherly pride. They all bought Liberty Bonds, and said they would leave the rest of that work to US. Now We know what we can do.-
 Private William Moore and his brothers have left a message for the stay-at-homes in America to heed 'The rest of you buy Liberty Bonds that can be your work
 Have you planned to buy your next one, now that the Third Liberty Loan is called for?

PAY THAT DEBT,
 SAYS BILL HART

William s. Hart, of moving picture fame, is one of the enthusiastic ad. Vocates for a general response to the Governments appeal for subscrip tions to its Liberty Loans. Here il what Hart says:
 Every American who has accepted the great blessing that God has given, and has lived the large and free life bought by the blood of many brave and devoted men, and passed on to ua a priceless heritage, has a chance now to repay.
 Tt iS for him at this instant te testify to the world what he knows he owes his country.
 He should at once, and cheertully give 8 little of his goods that his country has secured to him.
 'He should promptly say to the world, which is listening, and perhaps cynically crit1cising: When my coun, try asks me for life or for money ] cheerfully offer both.'
 He should demonstrate that pa. triotiGm is something greater and more sacred than an idle sentiment.
 And in contributing according to bis means for the high purpose placed before him by his President, he should appreciate that in reality he is mak- Ing no gift, but is investing in the greatest security in the world-THB PLEDGE OF THE UNITED STATES or AMERICA"

 2. To provide such dairy le- gislation as is necessary to pre- serve and increase that industry to meet the necessities of the war.
 There are a few other matters not strictly of a war nature but of such general and timely ap- peal that I am convinced the le- gistature would not wish them overlooked:
 1. The ratification Of the Prohibition Amendment to the

 2, To extend protection to the civil rights of Arizonans in the military and naval establish ments of the United States dur ing the period of the present war; to protect the civil rights of the families and dependents of Arizonans engaged in the pre- sent war, and to otherwise pro- vide for these families and de pendents so they may not suffer want or privation by reason of the participation of any number of their household in the present struggle for liberty.

Where the Allied Loans

More people than you would believe are under the impression that the money which Uncle Sam is lending to the Allies leaves America for er- penditure in Europe and other for eign countries
 This Is mistaken idea
 Virtually all of it is expended right here at home for American produced goods, munitions, and food stuffs.
 Since the declaration of war against Germany on April 6, 1917. Congress has authorized the lending of S7,0OO.- 100000 to the Allies, to be paid over before July 1, 1918. Up to November l, the Allies had received adEances aggregating $S,691, 400, ,OOO. They had expended in America for supplies $2,75s,9Oo .0OO, and had remaining 10 their credit in the United States treasury a balance of s932. .5OO, 900.
 From April to November the Allies had been borrowing from Uncle sam at the rate of approximately $500, ,OOO.- 900 a month
 And they had been spending St with us almost as rapidly as they got it,
 So the money which you put into  Liberty Bonds in the two preceding campaigns has been trickling back through channels of commerce fin an uninterrupted stream What the AL Hes are not spending Is being scat tered by Uncle Sam, who is con- fronted with the task of supplying and caring for a developing army of nearly 2,OOO,OOO men.
 And so it will continue as long as the war lasts. The men afield must be supplied with munitions, clothing and food. Every line of American endeavor will profit. The larger the bond sales, the greater the growth of the Allied armies and their require ments; the more tremendous the ex- penditures.
 Every dollar you put into Liberty Bonds is an added stimulus to Amer ican industry and American pros perity.
 Besides making more and more certain the defeat of the Kaiser's ambition to rule the world with his mailed fist.
