ma Pierce, musical selections by a
Ladies' Quartet from Gray, vocal
solo by Mrs. Cook, of Gray.
Rev. Mr.. Cook in a few we'll
chosen words then introduced the
speaker of the evening, w. r. Orch
ard, of Council Bluffs. Mr.. Orchard
is a ready and pleasing speaker. He
is a Christian gentleman and a man
of high ideals. He is clear thinker
and has the happy faculty of ex-
pressing his thoughts so clearly that
everyone understands him thoroly.
The address he gave was filled with
patriotism and it brot message to
the young men who are soon to leave
for camp they will always remem-
Der. He spoke with much feeling as
he referred to his only son, who is
now in France. Mr.. Orchard de-
votes much of his time to war ac-
tivities and is everywhere considered
as a man of good, sound judgment.
He has spoken in this city num-
Der of times and those who went
from here to the Welch home were
pleased to hear his address.
The closing number on the pro-
gram was a song by Mrs. Scott,
Keep the Home Fires Burning"
with band accompaniment The drum
corps from Manning was present and
furnished music while refreshments
of ice cream. cakes and cookies were
being served to the guests.

MADE GENEROUS DONATION
TO THE RED CROSS

Mr.. and Mrs. John Butterton were
married % years ago last Friday, the
ceremony taking place at the home
of the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
w. c. Sheets, in Melville township.
Mr.. and Mrs. Butterton have for the
past few years looked forward to this
time, expecting to celebrate the
happy event should they be permitted
to live until then. However, during
the last year or two conditions have
changed and as they feel the great
need OF conservation and want to do
what they can for the comfort of the
boys who are fighting our battles,
they deprived themselves of the
pleasure of having a big celebration,
and instead donated $25 to the Red
Cross. The check was handed to the
treasurer of the society Friday aft
ernoon. f
This certainly was delightful
ching for Mr.. and Mrs. Butterton to
do. 1t shows they are willing to make
sacrifices in order that we might con-
serve food. They have also made
great sacrifice in not having a cele-
bration such as would have ordi-
narily taken place. for we pass this
way but once. and silver wedding
comes to couple but once in life
time. Mr.. and Mrs. Butterton are
to be commended for their action,
which is certainly worthy of emula-
ton.
The Red Cross Chapter feels very
grateful to them for the donation and
thru the columns Of The Republican
wishes to publicly thank them.

HUNDREDS ATTEND FAREWELL

Hundreds of persons from all sec
tions of Audubon county took ad-
vantage of the generous invitation Of
o. S. Welsh to a farewell party
given at his home in Lincoln town
ship last Friday evening. The party
was given in honor of his son, Clin-
ton, who leaves tomorrow with the
contingent from this county for
Camp Dodge. All of the young men
who were to leave at that time were
especially invited and many were
present and occupied seats OF honor
on the speakers platform.
John Shaw, of Gray, took light
ing plant to the WEIGH farm and had
the beautiful lawn well lighted,
which added so much to the pleas
ure of the outdoors event.
The Welch home was thrown open
to the public and they did everything
in their power to make their guests
feel at home. A stand had been
erected in the yard, which was
uniquely decorated in the national
colors and from this platform the ex
ercises of the evening took place.
Rev. Mr.. Cook, pastor of the Meth
odist Church of Gray, was the
spokesman OF the evening and had
charge of the diversified program,
which consisted of music by the Au-

Casey Won't Believe Us.

Casey of the Knoxville Express
has a poor opinion Of The Reporters
reputation for truth and veracity.
just read this from last weeks Ex-
press:
Just as we had begun to hope
that Ollie Hull had concluded to re-
form and be good, here comes Il
staggering blow in the latest issue of
his Leon Reporter:
Gas A. NJ. Pryor was coming down
town early Tuesday morning he saw
what he at first thought was a big
snake crawling across the walk in
front of the residence Of Jas. F. Hnr-
vey, all of two inches thick and over
five feet long. He kicked it and
broke it in two, and on looking at it
closely he found it was rope of
small worms, about half an inch long
which was moving from under the
cement walk and crawling across it.
There were millions of the tiny
worms in the rope.
isn't this just about the limit?
We had concluded to overlook Ollie's
story about the 4O-pound jack rabbit
and the other impossible Decatur
county products when here he comes
with a twO-inch worm rope, five feet
long, biff, bang! just like that. Iowa
will have to build a Chinese wall
along the southern boundary of the
state until such time as Missouri
has been purged of her famous squir-
rel whiskey. Millions of worms twist
ed into two-inch rope! How can
Ollie have the gall to tell such
stOries?"

Liberty Loans at a Higher Rate?

The 6,OOO,OOO,OO0 of treasury
certificates which the secretary of the
treasury is to sell from time to time
in anticipation of a Fourth Liberty
Loan next fall will beaE an interest
rate OF A per cent. 1T is ACCORD
ington dispatches that this rate fore
shadows a like rate for the bonds
which are to follow.
No such inference is justified, and
for several reasons. The issues of
certificates sold last winter in an
ticipation of the Third Liberty Loan
bore rate of Il per cent, while
the rate later fixed for the bonds
was 4 a per cent. But beyond this
is the following statement given out
at the time as from Secretary Nc
Adoo:
''In order to put an end to the ex-
pectation of higher interest rates. it
is proposed that the conversion privi-
lege shall be eliminated from the
new bonds, but the holders of Lib
eerty bonds of all existing issues will
their bonds into the new Az per
cent bonds"
The buyers of these Az per cent
bonds were thus given to understand
that further Liberty issues would
bear a rate no higher, and that .un-
derstanding remains, as an implied
and the bond-buyers. AS daily
witness to such an understanding we
have a market price for the Az per
cents we'll below par, which would
hardly be the case were the possibil-
ity open for a future conversion of
these bonds into issues of higher
rate.
It must be mere rumor with no
.el-
than 4 "A per cent for the next Lib
erty Loan,
