THE GOOD SHIP LIBERTY LOAN

Germans submarines have taken
tremendous toll of the allied ocean
shipping during the last two years,
Merchantmen, armored crusier or
fishing smack, they have all looked
alike to the Huns. Red Cross ships
have been sent to the bottom; women
and children have been shelled in life
boats. With them nothing has been
sacred; nothing has been respected,
All that come their way has been fair
game; it has been open season ever
on the high seas for every variety of
craft.
But no German U-bOat will be able
to stay the progress of the good ship

MANKIND'S DEBT TO INSECTS
Their Work May Be Said to Be In.
dispensable to Human Existence
on the Earth.

According to Professor Pinder,
the losses in this country each year
due to insect activities amount to
$500, 100000, which is about six
times greater than the annual fire
loss in the entire United States.
These enemy insects by their habit
of carrying disease germs are instru-
mental in causing $4,000 deaths a
year from malarial and intestinal
diseases.
But the great mass of insects are
really blessing in disguise, so far
as man is concerned, for they keep
up, a continual warfare on those
wicked insects that. prey upon man
and his food. 1t is easy enough to
estimate the damage done by insects,
but it would be impossible to calcu-
late the benefits that useful insects
confer upon humanity. The losses
incurred at present would be per-
haps hundred times greater if the
helpful insects were not on hand to
give battle to the parasitic creatures
that wage war on man and his food.

Have you noticed that the old
town isn't altogether what it used to
be- That somehow there is differ
ence when you go down street, That
the old places are more subdued and
quiet; less busy and noisy7 That go
where you will, the club, the bowling
alley, the billiard parlor, anywhere,
there is the same subtle sense of
changed
The old voices no longer hail you
with such eager challenge, such roy
al welcome, such whole souled good
fellowship; the old smiles no longer
greet you so warmly and the old
hand claps on the shoulder no longer
bring you the same old sense of
comradeship and friendly interest
Something seems to have slipped
silently out Of life.
For scores of the old faces are
missing: faces that you knew and
loved the best.
They are cover there" in the kha-
ki-clad ranks that are slowly push
ing the gray Hun line backward to-
ward the Rhine. They are taking up
the burden of civilization, of democ
racy and freedom; the liberation of
q half world threatened with enslave-
ment; the perpetuation of our own
national liberty and safety. The
overthrow of Kaiserdom.
