What Slavs Will Need.
But the slavs will need railroads
and they will need railroad builders"
said the general. They will also
need capital. America has become
the banker of the civilized world. at
least for the period of the war. and
there is no reason why, after the war,
she will not be able to finance sound
enterprises. especially those. enter
prises which give fair promise Of in

Although the slavonic race is az old

minister said, it was just entering

American enterprise and organizing
0snfus will find a fruitful field for
effort in the Balkans at the close OF
the present war, Gen. Gvosdeno-
witch, minister from Montenegro to
the United States! said yesterday. The
minister declared that many indus
tries destroyed by the Germans must
be rebuilt and the great resources of
the small countries associated against
Germany ought to be developed.
If there ever was any distrust in
the Balkans of Americans 1t has given
place to a sense of trusting gratitude
since the delivery Of the Slavs from
the beaks Of the Austrian eagles, the
minister declared. The people OF
those little states know that America
entered the war to assure freedom for
all who want to be free and to allow
all nations. unhindered. to carve for
themselves a place in the sun, the
general said.

the needle thru the first hole in the

For the four-hole button the thread
may be carried parallel on both the

Remove the pin, pull the button away

MlCHAELSON GIVES INDUCE. E.
MENT TO CHANGERS

In this issue will be found the en-
iarged advertisement of Michaelson
brothers, whose popularity with the
farmers in this vicinity is well estab-
lished. The Niicaelsons have been
regular advertisers with the Enter
prise for more than half the past
year, and have found it to their ad-
vantage to enlarge their space to
double its former size in order that
they may say more to their friends
than they have heretofore been able
to do. An innovation has been in
naugurated in their business methods
which should appeal to the farmers
who havebecn in the habit of patron
izing the grange. All you have to do
is to present your Grange card at
Michaelson's and you will receive n
discount on any article you purchase
of ten per cent. There is no chance
for you to get anything but square
deal in this very generous offer, for
each article is marked with the price
on it in plain figures, so there can be
no mistakes. The beauty about trad
ing mt Michaclson's is that there you
find such a splendid assortment to
select from us compared to the other
place. Michaelson is not the ordin-
ary Cheap John" store, but you will
find up-to-date styles and values thnt
will surprise you.
