The bonds are not convertible and
are not subject to call for redemp-
ton before matured. The fact that
the government has made these ten
year bonds is taken by many as an
indication that the officials at Wash
ington are not looking for the war to
last many years.
The bonds carry the same exemp-
ton from taxation as those in the Sec
ond Liberty loan. Third Liberty Loan
bonds which have been owned by a
person for six months prior to the
date Of his death will be accepted at
par and accrued interest in payment
of federal inheritance taxes. The
campaign opened throughout the ma
ton April 6, and closes May 4, but
This is not adhered to in the Ninth
district. In this district no selling of
bonds is supposed to be permitted
prior to April Is. The actual selling
campaign opens at dawn next Mon
day and by midnight Wednesday the
examination executives expect that
the Ninth district will have subscribed
it+ full $125,000, 900 allotment.
The government has provided that
the bonds may be paid for in the fol.
lowing installments: 5R on applica-
ton; 20% on May 20. $3.50 on July
IS, and 400 on August Is. Payment
in full may be made with the appli-
cation or before May 4, but bonds will
not be delivered before May 9, on any

PEOPLES VIEWS

= y y y = = = = I =
Whenever a farmer registers a COM
plant he generally has a good reason
for it. My attention has been called
to an altogether too common an ex-
hibition Of spite work by auto drivers
on country roads. If the driver of a
wagon or other vehicle chances to be
a little hard of hearing or has a load
that happens to rattle or heavy enough
to make the wheels c%latter, it is often
difficult to hear the turning out sig
nal of an o%vertaking auto. He men
toned the fact that he had often failed
to hear a signal and some ~autoists
have tried tt take their spite out by
rushing by and turning in so short in
front of hin that the car tenders
would Craze the near horses fore legs,
endangering team and wagon. Driv-
ers should have proper consideration
for the rights of others who are not
at fault. The trying to crowd a team
Off the road caused a sever accident
in the county recently and perhaps a
damage suit.
Another thing. the law in regard to
the age limit of auto drivers is vio-
lated too often. A twelve or thirteen
old boy with younger children in the
front seat with him was observed driv-
ing a big car along Main street a few
days ago. A father in one of our
large cities has to put up money to
defend his small son against the
charge of manslaughter for running
over a man and killing him last week.
Stop children from running cars else
there may be a frightful accident on
our streets some day. 80"
