MON|ED MEN
ARE HOLDING BACK
First Days Liberty Loan Drive
Shows Baxter Far Behind
With Towns Financial
Men Tagging

Statement by Liberty Loan Conn.,
The story of the first days Liberty
Loan drive in Baxter Springs Il best
told in figures. There were S54 citi-
zens notified toappear on the first day
to make their subscriptions. Of that
number 1853 did appear, leaving 196
who for some reason or other failed
to put in their appearance.
OF the 1853 who did appear and sub
scribe there were 100 of them labor
ing men or small salaried men who
subscribed $50 each, all that was al
lotted to them. There were q who
subscribed 500 each. This leaves only
81 men who subscribed over 800
each.
In other words the men who have
subscribed thus far and thereby shown
their patriotism are the: men who
must sacrifice to take the -bonds-the
small men financially-while the big
fellows financially are not toeing the
line. -
Nineteen men, to whom were allot-
ted $25, $500, refused to meet their ap-
portionment and thus help the labor
ing man raise the city's quota Of
1854 900.
Instead of raising S73,750, the am
cunt allotted to subscribers the first
day, only S25,SO0 was the first days
total!
The city executive committee aug
mented by numerous other citizens,
voted We'd. to make personal calls
upon the men who refuse to do their
portion, and voted also to have pub
lished the names of all men who do
not appear in answer to the summons
or who fail to subscribe their quota
after appearing.
This committee did make two calls
Thurs. morning. In each instance the
man was asked to subscribe $1,000,
which was believed to be his share.
Ono of these men volunteered to make
this subscription and the other has
promised to. report to the committee
again prior to the books being closed
tonight friday. The committee has
voted to make numerous calls and has
asked the Council of Defense to CO.
operate with it. The committee has
thus far made three calls, the first
call resulting in a 81 900 subscription.

BROTHERHOOD VS.. CLAN
Nv ]. NJ. Smither

BY j. NJ. Smither
When time was dark and man was
rude,
A clan was formed of every brood.
Then was war rife twiXt clan and
clan,
And savagly the world o'cr-ran.
But Eian at last began to think,
And thinking he invented ink,
Then books he wrote the world 10
light.
And so the day shonc DER the night.
Thereby the clan was broadened out,
And brotherhood began to sprout,
Then DER the world fraternal ties
Prevailed and man began to rise.
But here and there remained the clan
To hamper the progress of man.
So then arose the fight between.
Fraternal ties and clanish mcin.
And rs the fittest doth survive,
So brotherhood shall yet arrive.
And tho the world is war distressed,
BY brotherhood it shall he blessed,
For as We fight to quell the clan,
We prove the brotherhood of man.
And fight we must to down the Hun,
For he's fossil son-of-a-gun,
A relic of the savage clan,
And not q brother true to man.

of the way along the same road, down
which ambulances loaded with wound
ed Doughboys were passing.
The Scots never failed to give q
cheer at the ambulances dashed past,
and whenever the occupants were not
too badly hit they raised up on their
stretchers and gave an answering
wave to the Scotch.
The Scots were white with dust
from their long ride in motor trucks
from the British front, and the Amer
lean ambulance drivers were covered
with n veneer of grit from the roads,
owing 20 the tremendous amount OF
traffic that passed continually day and
night.
In VillerS Cottcrcts, where wounded

Many Of the men were hit in the
feet by the new type Of German
shrapnel which bursts on contact with
the ground and scatters the force of
the explosion straight out over the
surface of the surrounding terrain.
Those whose feet and lower legs
were hit removed their boots and put
tees and sox and walked barefooted.

vividly through the white bandages
which had been applied at the evacu-
alton hospitals.
