The prosperity of a town is not

with which they pull together

A National Duty

The Treasury of the United
States has a great deal of money
TO raise and it can not be raised
by bankers alone, says Secretary
| McAdoo. The banks of this
country can not alone sustain
Americas needs in this war and
extend TO our allies the essential
aid which they must have to con-
tinue the war
The rich of this country can
not do it alone; the men of this
country cannot do it alone; the
women of this country can not do
It alone; but all of us, the people
of the United States, disregarding
partisanship, forgetting selfish in
terests, thinking only of the sup
remacy of right and determined
to vindicate the majesty of Amer
ican ideals and secure the safety
of America and civilization, can
do the great and splendid work
which God has called upon us TO do

YOUNGER MEN NOT YET
 RELEASED BY BOARD

The war is over, but all men from IS to 36, inclusive, must keep in touch with their local boards or become de- serters the Cochise local board an nounced yesterday. Men between the ages of 37 and 45, inclusive, are released from further obligation.
 The local board, acting under in- structions of the war department, makes this announcement to p1event men within the present military ages from becoming careless; for instance, in going away and not reporting to their local board before doing so. They must hold themselves in readi- ness and let their local board know of any changes in addresses.
 So far as the local boards infOrma- tion goes, information received only from the war department, there is an armistice in existence, to last for 15 days, ending November 26. The board is not officially aware of any diplo- matic procedure.
 Any orders that have been issued to date from the war department con- corning men between IS and 36, in elusive, are temporary; they were issued pending the final outcome in Europe, said the local board.
