WHAT A BASEBALL MAN THINKS
OF LIBERT YBONDS

Billy Evans, an American League
umpire, writes as follows:
Thrift in any crisis is great as
set The Liberty loan is teaching
most forcibly this lesson to the peo
pie Of the United States. The Lib
erty loan right now is doing a great
duty. 1t is enabling our government
to defend the very thing the word
liberty" implies. That is a great
service in itself The good effect of
the loan, however, will not be tempo
rary. 1t will tell a great story in the
future. 1t will have taught the
American people the real value of
economy.
"The purchase of Liberty bonds
by great many people meant the
sacrifice of many things, which at
the time seemed necessities. A few
months of denial have made what in
many cases seemed necessity to
be more of a luxury Most Of us
have learned it is not nearly so hard
to deny some of the things which
seemed to have come to be part OF
our lives. A sacrifice here and there
has been turned into a Liberty bond,
the most praiseworthy investment
any loyal American could make.

END COMES WITH VICTORY

From time to time we will make note of such
war protests as come to our attention, not because
we believe that any large number of Americans
are in sympathy with such professors, but be-
cause we think that these protests are launched
by enemies in our land and by them nourished and
fed to American citizens who do not mentally dig
to the root Of; their war protests.
Among these prof. German and entirely anti
American protests is this:
"As sodn,as we get through with one
Liberty loan drive they want money for the
Red Crossan war chests, and then they
start thrift stamp campaigns. Why don't
they give us a breathing spell in between?"
Without a5doubt some hellish Hun soul cooked
up that protest. And this is why: The less money
Americans can be persuaded to lend in bond and
stamp campaigns the fewer guns and soldiers we
can place against German aggressions "over
there" the less money we give to Red Cross the
more American, British and French soldiers will
die on battlefelds.
Of course tits true Americans are urged from
one money producing campaign to another, and
there is little time between them. They will come
faster and faster right along from now on until
the foe is vaYquished. Just as soon as we are
past this thrift stamp drive we must begin saw
ing our dollars, for the next Liberty bond cam
paign and again Red Cross and other win-the-
