QUE boys across the Rhine. It is up to us to buy bonds
with every uninvested dollar we own, plus every dollar
we can save by careful, frugal living for six months to
come.
You don't have to pay all cash for. your bonds. You
can make your first payment from cash in the bank,
and take care of the balance out of your daily, weekly
or monthly savings.
The forced saving you do now will mean a nice nest
egg later, for the bonds you buy now and pay for as you
go along, will prove a splendid investment that will pay
you a good interest every six months. After the war.
the bonds will be worth more than you paid for them.
Don't hesitate to do your duty and do it quickly.

FELLl6OOO FEET:

Miraculous Escape from Death of
Lieut.. Wilbur Davidson

Lieut.. Wilbur Davidson, son of the
late DR.. W. L. Davidson and Mrs.
Davidson of Mountain Lake Park, is at
his mothers home there after a har-
rowing experience at the battlefront in
France where he was an aviator.
Early IN MAY Lieut.. Davidson ascend
ed in his machine to give battle to an
enemy plane and when at the height of
10000 feet his machine was shot down,
but not before he had given good &C.
count of himself, however. In coming
to earth Lieut.. Davidson nose dived and
landed, he doesn't know how or when,
but fortunately he fell within the
American lines, the wind carrying him
from above the lines of enemy. where
he was gathered up and taken to hos
pital. suffering with broken wrist and
badly lacerated leg. Of course his ma
chine was wrecked.
Shortly after his accident he was in
valided home and placed in hospital in
New England. having arrived at the
Park last week where he will remain
until in October and then hopes to Join
the overseas forces for another try at
the worlds enemy.

A HEAP OF ASHES
Was Completely Consumed This
Morning at One O'clock

The splendid well appointed and pop
ular Loeb Lynn Heights Hotel, located
at Loeb Lynn, opposite Mountain Lake
Park, was consumed, along with its
contents, at one O'Clock this morning.
The building was erected number Of
years ago by some Fairmont people and
was purchased from them a few years
ago by Mrs. L. B. C. List, who success
fully operated 1t, as lessee while owned
by the Fairmonters and later as the
proprietor.
The hotel was closed for the season
yesterday and Mrs. List and her daugh-
ter, Miss Elizabeth, were the only oc.
cupants of the house when the fire was
discovered in the lobby by Mr.. W. L.
Reedy, night telegraph operator at the
Park. Through his efforts the occu-
pants of the hotel were aroused and as
the main stairway and front portions of
the building were burning they were
forced to descend by rear stairway.
1t is thought the fire originated from
an open fireplace in the lobby which was
located in the centre of the building,
and there being little or no fire protece
ton afforded at the high point where
the hotel was located, it was foregone
conclusion that the building was doomed
to destruction.

CHANDELIERS SPECIAL FEATURE
The Magnetic Delivers One From
Battery Troubles.

Government officials have told repre-
sentatives OF the National Automobile
Dealers Association that an effort should
be made by all automobile dealers to
give car owners a better knowledge of
their machines. so that certain service
requirements may be dispensed with dur
ing the war.
This suggestion is a good one" says
J. B. Hulett. president OF the Brady
Murray Motors Corporation. because
with a better knowledge OF his car the
owner will drive 1t more intelligently
and lengthen its life considerably.
Various special mechanical features
too will receive more careful consldera-
ton ard their value will be more thor
oushly appreciated. Take the Bosch
magnetic in our Chandler six. for in
stance. Here Is a piece Of mechanism
whose Importance in the operation OF a
Chandler cannot be overestirnated.
We'll say that on some rainy might
the battery goes dead OF course then
the starter is out OF commission too
This seems lilo an awkward predica-
ment. But here's where the magnetic
comes in and saves the situation. Ali
one has to do is to get out the starting
crank. start the engine on the magnetic
and drive nome comfortably because the
motor Is not dependent on the battery
for ignition"

THE action of the Interstate Com

THE increased express rates will force
many truck owners to employ their own

will allow a part of the hard pressed

in long haul work.
"a splendid example OF how trucks are
shouldering some OF the burden without

The many friends Of r. Fl. Johnston
will be pleased to hear that he has been
promoted from the position OF New York
manager Of the White Company TO be a
vce-president OF the company. Mr..
Johnston has been with the White inter
ests for fifteen years, during which pc
riod he has been an active figure in the
trade. He entered the White compary's
service in time to take part in the
memorable New York to Pttsburg en-
durance run In 1903.
From 1909 to 1910 Mr. Johnston had
charge of the advertising department of
the company. During that time he de-
voted much effort to searching out new
touring routes and was a frequent con-
tributor to the automobile press under
the pen name Of pathfinder" He laid
out several OF the early Glidden tour
routes and served as an official in many
of the automobile contests of that day.
From 1910 to the present time he has
been in charge of the New York branch
Of the White company. This has been
