Americans Will Support Liberty Loan to Protect Their Homes
 and Country.

It has been often said that the wom- an always pays Do you, MT Farmer, MT. Town Man and MT. City Man. want your wife to pay the price of Prussian barbarism and martyrdom?
 Since the war started the Prussian has blushed at nothing. To type O. man capable of making joke of the most horrible crimes. such acts as a baby crucified on a barn door, mur- dering mothers and outraging young girls is a mere matter of amusement.
 The United States government IS about to launch it's Third Liberty Loan. Does this mean anything to you? It means everything to the men, women and children of America, Your son and all the nations sons are rely ing on the United States Treasury to furnish the sinews of war Their lives are lost if the Treasury fails.
 The American farmer will not le. the cruel, piratical and ruthless poe. of Teutonie militarism reign iu th land of the free and the home of the brave. We will not yield up our birtl right as Americans
 The Third Liberty Loan will~be oyer subscribed.

PRESS IF AMERICA Is
 M0jT POTENT AID
All Newspapers Prove Loyal and Aid
 Government

IL has been sad that the biggest he front, in rendering the government aid Is the loyal press of the United States.
 Not only has the metropolitan daily given Of it's news and editorial space 10 help in tue great struggle being waged on the Western front. but the hometown paper has gone direct to the hearts of it's readers in telling the story or the war.
 Every country paper throughout the Eighth Federal Reserve District has pledged itself to assist the Third Lib er1y Loan. which wlll be started Tn April 1t is good for the coun ; that We nave a united and loyal press And Il has been thus from the begnning Even when public opinion was waver ing and doubtful, al the time of the declaration of war, the American press stood by the government with fine, fearless and splendid loyalty.
 Popular opinion is made up largely of what the people read-the facts they read This loyal and fearless publicity has made plain to all the atrocious conduct of Germany in bring lng this frightful calamity upon the world and the terrible abominations she has committed in the course Ot our progress toward victory The press is one of the most potent forces to Aold our people steadfast to the winning of the war.
 But if the Third Liberty Loan and the other war measures of the United States government ale defeated, the the press will be forced to tell dif- ferent story.
 It will then be forced to tell about the murder of American women anl children by the Germans; the murders that the enemy will commit in order that we might be enslayed If the treasury fails or finds itself unable 10 respond to every call made upon Il the war is lost. Your son and all of the nations sons are relying on the United States Treasury to furnish things with which they may fight.

Devastation and Cruelty in Cuba Out done in Belgium and France.

All America shuddered with shame and contempt when heartless Span iard drove 400, ,009 peaceful inhabi tants of Cuba from their homes anu forced them into reconcentrado camps to suffer, to starve and to die
 But 40 one ever accused the Madrid government of such brutality as marks the cruelty inflicted upon chl- dren, or the uncomfortable barbarity shown to women by the heartless Ger mans in invaded lands.
 What the Prussian has done in Bel gium, n Russia, in Roumania and the other European countries he would do in America if the Kaiser wins the war.
 Buy Liberty Bond and register protest against the saber-rattling, bloodthirsty Prussian war lord
 America must win the war or civi- lization Is doomed. Uncle Sam can and he will win, but he must have the loyal support of the men who stay at home as well as the soldier who goes to France.
 Billions must be raised to supply the guns, the food, the thousand-and- one things that are necessary to sup port the army.
 The free citizens of the United States must supply the money with which to feed, clothe and intuition the army. The best way to do this is to buy Liberty Bond-the safest in vestment in the world
