Why You Should
Buy Thrift Stamps
las an investment.

las an investment
U. S. War-Savings Stamps are in
reality baby bonds issued by the
government, and represent the best
security in the world today.
Pit is in the reach of every man,
woman and child.
3-Never before, and possibly not
for long time to come, will such at
tractive investments, payable in such
small amounts, be available.
ITO buy War Savings Stamps, is
to evince patriotism.
The nation is in the greatest war Of
the worlds history, and must win this
war. The people of America can and
will win, if they mean it, feel it, and
live it, as the people of '76 lived, and
felt and helped.

tractively planned announcement par
ty given on Wednesday morning of

wrote wish for the bride, on the
other valuable recipe for her cook
book. Later delicious salad course
was served.
Friday Miss Leonora Mayberry was
the hostess of an elegantly appointed
luncheon at which Miss Terrell was
again the guest of honor. A patri-
otto color scheme was carried out,
the lovely luncheon table having for
its central ornament. large red
heart filled with red and white car
nations.

were very appropriate. An elaborate
menu of five courses was served.
Two unique contests furnished
much amusement. In heart-shaped
diary each guest shared in writing
something of the brides young lady
hood Miss Josephine Eggleston won
the prize for the best contribution.
In another contest the hostess made a
profile of the silholette of each guest,
and Miss Kitty McLemore made the
greatest number of correct guesses.

himself where he had seen that face
before. and what there was about the
man that Irritated him.
"Confound the band!" Guy muttersd,
as he threaded his way around among
revolving couples, who now and again
collided with him, and then cursed or
laughed, according to their disposi-
tion. "I wish II would stop. Then !
shall get a chance OF seeing for my
self"
He had hardly expressed the wish
when a sharp cry went up-a sudden
cry OF pain. The dancers stopped,

The band ceased playing; It was like

cried.
A hand was laid on his shoulder,
and he turned abruptly to face Twee-
dledum. who. half drunk. and with
Lofty still hanging on his arm, had
just emerged from the supper room.
What Brings You Here!
'what on earth brings you here,
Guy?' he cried jovially. his square
shoulders shaking. '"Where did you

He moved of in the direction OF the
bar. and Guy followed him.
Tweedledum ordered champagne.
Then, when he was about to pay for
It, he withdrew his hand from his
pocket with a loud and brutal oath.
"Tve been robbed, 1! The bills
won on you, Hooking, had them
here in my pocket And they're gene,
the whole lot of them" A ready fiow
OF foul language burst from his lips.

That's where they've done me-done

TO be that he should have been robbed
1T was a more deadly offense than
the actual thieving OF the money.
Refrained From Laughter.
Guy could have laughed aloud at
this retributive Justice, but he wisely
refrained from doing so. Tweedle-
