carry supplies to the men at the
front. 1t is a patriot dollar.
Now, you can understand why ev-
erybody must save to help win the
war. We must save our pennies, our
nickels, our dimes and our dollars.
Many small savings will mean big
savings for the country. Think of
the boys cover there" who are fight
ing for US. The more we save here
now the more lives of boys we will
be able to save. The government
wants you to save even only at PEN
ny at a time, because it is only by
such saving that we can win the war.
In Germany the children are collect
ing all the copper and tin foil and
rubber for the army. There are a
hundred ways by which you or your
children can earn money to pay for
these war savings stamps.
In 1915, the first full year Europe
was at war, we collected $114,000,-
600 worth Of old metal. That, ac-
cording to the United States geolog-
ical department, was twice as much
as in 1914. We collected more, we
wasted less. There is an object lesson
for every one, and every time you
lick a stamp you help to lick the
kaiser. It's big war we are in, and
we're going to win. The way we're
going to win is in little things-by
everyone doing his part every day
every one and everybody.
The boy or girl who saves and
buys war savings stamps is getting
ready for peace time, when money
will be needed. You may succeed in
something which you desire very
much later by saving now.

WEDDING IS STAGED
In mo MANS LAND"
CEREMONY TAKES PLACE MID
WAY BETWEEN TRENCHES
OF OPPOSING ARMIES.

AMSTERDAM-A war wedding
which actually took place in No
Mans Land, between the fronts of
the Russian and German armies is
described in the German newspapers.
1t was solemnized in a shell-shatter-
ed farm house standing almost mid
way between the trench lines. This
building has been known as ''Cafe In
ternational'' since determination be-
gan between the Germans and Rus
slams, because it was a place where
the soldiers met for drinking bouts
and exchange of goods. Families
which had been separated through
out the war were also permitted to
hold reunions at this house.
The bridegroom of the No Mans
Land wedding was a Doctor Iluitz, an
Austrian police official. His parents
and the bride lived in small portion
of Austrian territory which was still
occupied by Russian armies, while he
lived behind the Austrian lines. AS
the Russian authorities would not
permit them to go into territory oc-
cupied by the Austrians, it was de-
cided to hold the wedding on the neu-
trail soil of the ramshackle farm
house.
The whole wedding company made
its way through openings in the barb
ed wire, and in the half-roofed sit
ting room of the "Cafe Information
aP' the young pair were married.
Afterward there was a wedding feast
and dancing.

9-Year-Old School Boy Tells Why
You Should Buy Thrifts Stamps

Eshton Hall, the nine-year-old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. S. B. Hall, was
awarded the blue ribbon in Pleasant
Hill high school for the best essay on
thrift stamps-why every person
should buy them. The little fellow
is in the grammar grade, and natur-
ally is elated over his success. His
paper follows:
Thrift and the Purchase of
Thrift Stamps.
Trift means saving. If we save
money we will help win the war.
There are three things you can 90
with dollar. You can hide it; you
can spend it, or you can invest it.
Now a dollar that is hidden away is
an idle dollar, and today, when the
government needs money, it is drag
on the community just as an idle
man is a drag on the community.
An idle dollar is a Stacker.
But there is something worse than
Stacker. A Stacker is not doing any
thing accurately to defeat the ma
tons purpose, but when you spend
money for things of no real use to
you, when you employ labor foolish
ly or use up material that you can
well do without, when it is material
that the government needs, then your
dollar is an ally of the enemy. 1t
is a traitor dollar. When you lend
your money to the government you
put it to work to help win the war,
for that dollar will help to buy the
clothes, the guns and the munitions
that our armies must have. 1t may
be used to buy the motor trucks, en-
gines and ships that are needed to

SENATE BEGINS HUNT FOR
SWIVEL-CHAIR WARRIORS
0Hoed Youths Are Said to Be Fighting The War From
Easy Berths In Washington Offices

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The SEN
ate today called upon the war de-
partment to furnish list of names
OF all the young officers between the
ages of twenty-one and thirty-one
who are fighting from the swivel
chairs In Washington. It has been
alleged that there is a large number
OF them, and that some are the sons
of wealthy men.
The information was asked in a
resolution introduced by Senator
Thomas, of Colorado, who objected
to the fact that his son, who is a
private in the regular fighting army,
and young men generally who face

the necessity of doing actual service
for their country, must salute other
young men who, for reasons not
clear, wear shoulder straps and
leather puttees and work in Wash
lngton.
The Thomas resolution originally
called for list of all non-combatant
officers in the army. 1t was discov-
cred, however, that this term includ-
ed many officers in such branches of
the service as the quartermaster's
department, the engineers, medical
corps, etc., so in committee the meas,
ure was amended to include only of
fcers located in Washington.
