"Our bank will take its full quota
of the Treasury Certificates"
Thirty-three more banks subscrib.
ed for the second issue than for the
first. The subscriptions totaled
$31, 26O,5OO.
John M. Herbert, of the First Ma
tional Bank of Murphysboro, ILL.,,
says that it is the duty Of every bank
er to subscribe for his quota. He
says that all broad guaged banking
officers will comply with this request
Of the Secretary of the Treasury,
and that this is no time to let George
do it." He adds that the small bank
that will refuse to carry small pro-
portion of these certificates cannot
expect the large banks to carry an
additional large proportion.

ment as cheerfully with their re-
sources as the individuals did in the
last Liberty Loan.
TT is not happy thought for a
bank to extend its bills payable, but
| would have you believe it is fash
ionable one and it will be more so as
the war goes on. War is but an ex-
pansion of credit, so far as it applies
to the financial resources of our
country annd we must all face it and
face it cheerfully.
81 am sorry that your burden is a

realize how cheerfuly you are meet
ing your duty"
, The following letter from the
president Of the old state national
DdIlk VI LNdHSNHlS, liu', 10 SolllllCil-
ded by Chairman Compton as show
ing the right spirit:
i "The time has come again for the
bankers of the Eighth Federal Re
serve District to buy their quota of
Treasury Certificates. That they
will do this admits of no doubt. Our
past record is the best evidence that
we will again cheerfully do our du-
ty.
"The success of our armies on the
western and Italian fronts is an in
spiration, if this were necessary, to
urge every bank to take its full share
lof the Treasury Certificates. The
Government needs the money for
America to win the war, and the BAN
kers regard it as a privilege to do
their part.

JUDGE EVERETT TO
RESUME PRACTICE

Judge S. J, Everett will retire from
the bench on Sept. and resume the
practice of law in Jackson. He has
been judge of the Sixteenth circEit
for the past eight years, and declineess
to stand for reelection, preferring
the practice of law to the duties of
judge. After he reached this con-
clusion he became a candidate for
congress from the eighth district and
was defeated in the late primary by
Congressman Sims. He gracefully
accepts the situation, and will open
law office and re-enter the prac-
tice, which is fully congenial with
him, and in which he was successful
at the time he was elected judge.

.PERSH|NGS CRUSADERS
FIRST YEAR OF WAR

The United States Government
through George Creel's committee
on public information, Division of
films, of which Charles H. Hart is
director, is offering to the public the
first of it's official war films, "Per-
shing's Crusaders" There are eight
reels of this film, which graphically
shows how every able bodied Ameri-
can is helping to win the war. These
pictures which show the grim ear
nestness of the United States Govern
ment in its war time annd its deter
mination to stamp out Kaiserism,
were taken by the U. S. Signal Corps
and Navy Photographers and Cam
eramen of the French General staff
at home and abroad. In addition to
this, Pershing's Crusaders will show
interesting scenes photographed by
the cameramen of the Allies. Each
week as important things happen
over there, they will be shown as a
sort of curtain raiser to the big fea-
ture.
"Pershing's Crusaders" will be
shown at the Dixie theatre for two
days, starting September 18th. In
order that every one may see and thus
realize the result of American effort
in this war, it has been decided to
show this film at popular war time
prices within the reach of all.
In this comprehensive picture one
will see Uncle Sans soldiers in the
making; the work at the cantonment;
the activities of the great war char
tiles, the Red Cross; Knights of Co.
lumbus, Masons and Y. M. C. A., how
the army is fed and clothed; the max
ing of arms and ammunition, farmers
in the field doing their part and
working men in factories, each and
all giving his best effort for his
country; the building of ships on a
scale such as the world has never
seen; the navy in action, American
aviators in the air somewhere in
France and the boys in Khaki with
General Pershing on the Western
front.
1t is a revelation of a nation arous.
ed in all its might. When you see
what your government is doing to in.

shoulder to the wheel with new Wig

when called upon to do so, to the linz

ty is imperative. Uncle Sam expects
one to do his or her duty.

Extending The Draft.
GOVERNOR A. o. STANLEY

ALL things considered, thanks to
the allied navies, the loss of life in
ocean transportation are not larger
than those sustained in ordinary
Report comes from Washington that
sentiment in the wa r department is
constantly growlng'ir favor of ex-
tending in each direction the age
limits for drafted men to include
those of IS and AZ years as minimum
and maximum. It Is remarked that
Secretary Baker has for some time
favored lowering the draft age to
include men OF IS years, though he
has MOI pressed the point.
IN view of the secretary lor e
continued opposition to universal
military training, it is little diff
cult to understand his present ati-
tude as thus described. For the
immediate effect OF extending the
draft age and OF establishing unIver-
sal military training would be vir-
tually identical, with one important
exception. In the measures for
universal training which have been
given the most thoughtful attention
by congress provision Is made for
such training at the age of IS or 70
years, but the young men so trained
would not be called for military
service until they bad reached their
msjortY, Presumably, if the select
i've conscriptlon system were applied
to young men of IS years they would
be subject to call at once upon the
compIe;i n of their military instruc-
ton. And in these days OF urgent
demand for men and yet more men
to fight the nations battles the Pc
Rod of training is Comparatively
short.

necessity for quantity production O

WALSH FOR WHEELER,
ferrous County Arous.

Senator Walsh stands by Wheeler
for the reason that Wheeler delivered
the senator some very valuable votes
when the latter needed them and tho
honorable senator seems to think that
this political debt has not yet been fully
discharged He defends Wheeler's ap-
parent apathy in bringing to punish
mcnt members Of the l. ". W. and
other disloyalists on the ground that
the judge of the court he serv.s is APP
parently not in sympathy with the laws
relating to such offenses, thereby
handing Judge Bourquin left handler.
People of Montana generally think
that Wheeler is very glad that he is
a prosecuting officer in a court which
Is imbued with ideas and opinions
such as Senator Walsh attributes to
Judge Bourquin. and they want no
more of Wheeler.
If il were left to a vote of the peo-
pie Of the state to make the selection

lengthy editorial comes out in defense
or the position taken by Senator Walsh
III upholding and insisting upon recon-
mendins Il. X. Wheeler for the office
or United States district attorney for
the state OF Montana. Analysing the
long article II amounts to the simple
statement of fact that Senator Walsh
Is under political obligations to Wheel
err and that he proposes to pay the
uept IN manner most agreeable to
that gentleman. despite tho voiced
protest OF a great majority Of the peo-
pie OF Montana. Honesty in any walk
of life Is commentaries. Payment of
debt whether financial. political or So
cial Is the very foundation OF honesty.
But to pay. or attempt to pay personal
obligations especially political, at the
expense of great commonwealth is
entirely a horse OF another color. The
worthy senator will find this true to
his cost before the end OF his next cam
paign. The people of this or any other
state will stand for much. But there
comes "A time when the last straw is
added to the load and then trouble en-
sues. To fcist Wheeler again upon the

that turns the trick. The mere fact
that suspicion has been aroused regard L.
