PENRoD STORIES
One of the Many Features We Are
Offering to Our Patrons.

Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer,
creatures of the wholesome humor OF that
favorite of American authors, Mark Twain,
will live in the memory of men until their
days are done. Years cannot obliterate the
recollection of the real "kid" stories Of these
youngsters read long, long ago.
But Huck and Tom are destined to have
rivals for the affections Of those who like
stories of real, American boys. Penrod
Schofeld, Sam Williams and the rest OF
their gang" kids of a later day are intro
duced to us by Booth Harrington.
It is not necessary to tell you of the class
of Harrington as an author, nor after read
ing any Of Penrod stories to tell you that as
a boy he was regular, full-blooded, full
of-the-dickens youngster One must have
lived the things he writes of to tell them as
he does
IF you read one of these stories, you will
read them all, and ask for more. One of
these stories is printed in this issue. Read
it.

Buy War Saving Stamps
From Marietta Business Men
Marietta Business Men to Sell to All Corners;
Everybody should Buy Literally

Marietta business men have agreed
to sell war-savings stamps and you
may buy them almost anywhere in
Marietta. The war must be won with
men, money and means: Do your
part, and at the same time lay away
something for '.the rainy day that
is coming" by buying war-saving
stamps. When you buy them you
are loaning to the government at
interest and have the best security
in the world.
When the great war is over and
our triumphant soldiers come troop
ing home from the land Of blood and
pillage, what will you have in the
sight to give you pride for the part
you have taken? viii you have
brave son, father, brother among
the list? If not, will you have the
satisfaction of knowing that you help
ed Uncle Sam by loaning him your
dollars to fight with--to feed his
hosts of men at the front, to clothe
the boys in the trenches, or to feed
his allies?
Spend twenty five cents or doll
lar per week of your wages, and
thus help fight our battles, encourage
thrift, and lay up some interest-bear-
ing funds for the "rainy day"
You will find stamps at the fol-
lowing places of business in Mari
