PERSHING DAY AUG. 6
Pay Up! Sign Up! Match Up!
War Savings Slogan
First Honor Day.

"Pay up! Sign up! Match up" is
the latest slogan of the War Savings
workers throughout the state of Wis
consin. 1t is included in govern
ment notice sent out, announcing
Aug. as Pershing Day, the first of a
series Of ''honor" days to be noted be-
fore the close of the War Savings
and Thrift period on Dec. 81.
The ''honor" days have been select
ed so that war savings pledges may
be promptly paid as they fall due, SO
that increased amounts may be
pledged and so that new opportuni-
ty will be given to every one TO make
pledge.
On Pershing Day it is urged that
every one go to their bank, post-of-
fee or other place of payment and pay
all sums then due, including August
payments, and, if possible, increase
their pledges to the best limit. 1t is
also urged under the "sign up" slo-
gan, that all those who have not al
ready pledged, do SO that day.
Match up" says John I'll. Puelich-
er, director of War Savings for Wis
consin, with our boys over there to
whom Gen. Pershing has said: Your
country is proud of you. am proud
to command such a body Of men.
You have fought splendidly.'
f'Our boys over there are making
good all their pledges. We must see
to it, here at home, that we do like
wise"
War Savings societies are asked to
present the matter of "honoJo days,
in full, to their members, SO that all
may be ready to pay their pledges on
Pershing Day the first Tuesday in
August. Each first Tuesday of the
month, thereafter, will be an ''honor
day." and it is expected that all will
take advantage of the opportunity to
pay their pledges on that day.

EAT BEANS TO SAVE BEEF.


The day when beans shall
take the first place has arrived
now that there is a shortage of
beef. No longer shall they he
relegated to ironing day, but be
served for Sunday dinner.
Beans are really the most pa
triotic food at present and
should be honored as such since
they furnish a splendid substi-
tute for meat. Hoover has
warned us of the urgent need
Of the army and Allies for beef.
we know that the present sup
ply is insufficient, and reasoning
proves that the only way to So
cure an adequate export until
more animals come to market is
to eliminate beef from our diet.

GERMANS RAID LIVE STOCK.

The Deutschland Ueber Allies" pol
icy has actuated the Germans to steal
the live stock of the Allies in order to
save their own and to increase their
food supply. Germany has not
slaughtered her home supply as rap
idly as otherwise would have beer
necessary.
AS result of this plundering, there
is now a practical exhaustion of ami
mails in Belgium, Serbia and Rouma.
MIA. Europe has already lost consid-
erably over half as many meat ami
mails as there are in the United
States today, and considering the
poor condition of the animals still
alive, it becomes an urgent necessity
for the United States to ship to her
all possible meat supplies.
