HOPEFUL SIGN

When the British, French and Amer
leans decide that time to give no more
ground, in the great battle they seem
| thoroughly capable of handling the
| situation as they desire In the most
determined and most deliberate effort
yet made by the Germans they used
possibly more than $4,000 men on
less than ten-mile front at the begin
ming of the present week, trying with
all might and main to develop their
success at KENNEL Hill. If one must
Judge from news accounts, this was a
struggle of intense spirit and deter
mination. but still, when II came time
to hold, the allies literally stalled the
Germans in their tracks No allied
line swerved another particle
This is the second, third and fourth
time this has occurred In the present
battle. It has occurred now often
enough that 1t seems quite the allied
plan to lead out the enemy and lose
no time working on his poor bones,
Hindenburg may be losing one of the
most gigantic struggles in all the
worlds history, all according to a pre-
arranged French plan that apparently
is being carried out to magnificent
finish.
1t could not be worked out with any
sort of good results were the allies to
refuse to give ground. The allied pro
gram, all must admit, IL to kill the
largest number of Germang on the
smallest plot of ground in the shortest
possible time The thing has been 60
ing on so long and so inyessantly that
some one of the elements in the
struggle is going to weaken. How long
it will be will have little to do with
the problems that are engaging the
great leaders, so long as the fight con
tinues
So long as the allied armies seem 10
be able to hold when they decide that
they so desire 1t, there is not much
danger of any great losses.

Don't keep tab on your neighbor's
work; you cannot run his job and
your own at the same time.
Don't laugh at another mans weak
ness or stupidity. If you hunt care
fully you may find some of your own.
Don't worry if you are not ad-
vanced quickly-the man who goes,
up like sky-rocket often falls like
a crash of thunder.
Don't apologize for your mistakes,
and don't make the same mistake a
second time.
Don't tell man what you can do,
but show him, for it saves both his
time and yours.
Don't carry your troubles on your
face, for it is only laugh and "a
smile that improves work.
Don't try to succeed by schemes:
they are too full of snares-hard
work is slower but surer road.
Don't neglect the small things
about your work, for one small thing
usually mars the whole.-Santa Fe,

LEND-NOT SPENY-YOUR
MONEY.

If you lend your money to the
Government, you may be quite sure
that it is going to be used for some
national purpose-to prosecute the
war successfully, to care for, equip,
arm and supply our soldiers in
France, to be used by our Navy in
ridding the seas of the murderous
U boats.
But if you spend your money even
with the belief that by putting it
into the channels Of trade others in
to whose hands it comes will lend
it to the Government, you will have
done something the patriotism Of
which may be very questionable.
First, you have withdrawn from
the supply of material of the Nation
something to replace which in the
market will require labor and ma
terial which should be devoted to
war purposes.
Second, the person to whom you
pay your money may also use it to
purchase things requiring material
and labor which should be devoted

men, women, and little children
who can no longer raise their
hands in defense of their country.
We say we live in free land. But
our freedom today stands or falls with
the success or failure of our boys who
are fighting for us.
That we may halt the Huns in their
mad war of conquest, our Government
needs Billions of Dollars in the Third
Liberty Loan. Every hand in the land
must give. Every dollar which is not
being used for necessities, must ring the
Liberty Bell. The man or woman who
does not buy his or her share of Third
Liberty Loan Bonds has no right to the

whom he pays it may repeat the
operation.
But when you lend your money to
the Government instead of spending
it, you will at once lessen the drain
to a certain extent on our country s
resources, it's material, it's labor, and
it's transportation facilities, and in
addition you supply your Govern
ment with money to be used in win
ming the war.
Every purchase of Liberty Loan
Bond is an individual act toward
bringing victory to America and her
allies.

Some time during Sstl day night
burglars broke in througl the back
door of the lumber Office and after
some unnecessary labor pried open

office, is working his Irish wit to ut
most capacity in an e!ldeavor to 10

in making substitute bread, it is
somewhat embarrassing to our dainty
cooks that the travelling gentry Of

however to hear the report prevalent
