b0NDSMEAN WARM CLOTHING DUR

UNCLE sAM's CLOTHING BILL Is NEARLY HALF 4 BILLION

ONE OUTFIT WILL COST s91.63
~ Takes a Fifty Dollar Liberty Bond to Make Fighter Mere
 ly Comfortable.

Winter will be upon us almost be. comes much earlier, with its raw winds and chilling rains, in the trenches of Flanders fields.
 As thousands have made voluntary subscriptions for Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds they have said by their actions We cannot bear the thought of our boys shivering with cold in the winter winds and chilling ice that will come upon them in faraway France. That is one reason We are buying bonds to the limit"
 It costs the Government $91.63 to furnish a single equipment to one soldier, which includes one round of clothing and bedsacks to keep him warm in the winter when he can get the opportunity for a few winks of sleep. Two equipments only-and many man in America has more Is $tS326. # will take more than $200.000,000 10 equip the army in France alone and even this amount would be scant for their comfort.
 What Bonds Buy.
 Another s200,000,000 would be need. ed for the boys on the sea and at home-and still there would be more clothes tc buy to keep the forces warm through the coming winter
 If you have one boy in the army, a $50 Liberty Bond would buy him a warm shirt one pair of brooches. a woolen coat. cap, winter underwear. wool gloves. heavy socks, shoes and overcoat at cost of s46.71, with s329 to spare. This would not be all that he would need, but you would have the satisfaction of knowing that you had contributed to his warmth One hundred dollars invested in a Liberty Bond would equip two American sol. diers with one outfit each and leave margin to help in other ways.

DOING YOUR FULL DUTY
Little We Can Give, but Much We Can
 Do to Help Win War.

We can give little to the govern. ment, since we own little to give Ger tainly We cannot give our lives. for our title to life is only that of lease, and this is not even as stable as the rented house in which We live, for We can hold that specified time, while our lease on life may be terminated at any hour, day or night, and that with. out notice. The same Is true of a son whom we may send to the battle front
 We cannot give our property, for the government has not asked for this and is not receiving any gifts. In deed we really have no property, real estate or personal, since everything we call our own is subject to taxation which would utterly oblterate any claim We have upon it.
 Then what can We do to help win this war?
 We can contribute of our funds 10 benevolent auXiliaries of the govern ment, such as the Red Cross, Y. NJ C. country all the money we can spare and get in return Liberty Loan Bonds. This we can do with every assurance. however, that it is in no sense a gift. since it pays a liberal profit and is guaranteed as no other security in the world This security is as sound as any that possibly can be made. for every piece of property in the United States. even to the clothes we wear, is pledged to make good this bond.

IN MONTPELIER RESTAURANTS
The New Food Regulations Are Being
RigidIy Enforced

MONTPELIER. Oct 24-The new
food rules which went into effect Mon
day in the hotels are being rigidly OBJ
served and there is no better Judge of
this fact than the guests The menus
are limited to one meat, soup without
bread being served, and bread, butter
served if ordered and butter limited TO
half an ounce. A teaspoon of sugar Is
served in an envelope.
Patrons are taking kindly to the new
order as they realize that it must be
necessary or it would never be put into
force. One or two kicks have been reg
istered at local hotels. One man, after
spreading his butter allowance on his
potatoes and working it in. called for
another batch to complete the job and
to furnish covering for his bread and
when he was told about the food ad-
illustrators order he threw down his
napkin and left the dining room. He
said he would go where he could get
something to eat. He left town the next
