WORKING OVERTIME
By Mrs. G. T. Smith

By Mrs. G. T. Smith
 There was a cartoon in the Literary Digest last month that ought to get to us strong if we only stop to study it. Under meath were these words: "Am- ong the fellows working and fighting for us over there, it's not a question of hours and ov- ertime."
 Once we realize we are in this war, how can one stop to argue about immaterial con- ditions? We are in to win and the only thing we've got on our mind from then on, is to win. Hours and Overtime If we can produce more by working longer, remember about the producing not the working. It's the friction that wears out the working parts not the number of hours they work. Ii we live by enthusiasm, we can keep the friction down to the minimum and the amount of work will be forgotten in the glory of the amount produced.
 We have entered the third big Liberty Loan Drive. Can we afford to figure the hours and overtime that success in this Drive will mean throughout the nation?
 The Big Folks won't do it; they'll be so keen for results that they'll forget their person. al load. They are doing that everywhere and they are doing it here.
 The bonds being offered in this loan will be oversold easily. Everyone will think mainly of the result and forget self and self interest. Sometimes, most times, little unselfish effort is the best investment in reach.
 Get down to facts. Among the fellows working and fight ing for us over there, it's not a question of hours and overtime | Why should you only buy en- ough bonds to get your name in the paper, but never cause you an extra hours work or strug- gle?

FARMERS! THIS IS YOUR WAR. BUY
 LIBERTY BONDS
Success of Teutonic Arms Spells Despoliation for Ameri- | can Producers

Let us think for while how the war concerns the farmer
 We went to war with Germany partly because the rulers of that country refused to let us send to Europe our ships laden with grain and cotton. They sunk the ships and cruelty murdered our sailors Now suppose we allowed them to stop all our shipping, where would you be? None of your goods would be sold in foreign countries, with the result that you would get nothing like the prices which you get today. This war is being waged partly that you may obtain fair prices for your goods.
 What is going to happen if we lose this war? Prices of farm pro- duce will drop; the Germans will impose taxation upon you which will cripple you for the next twenty years. Worse than that, if the Germans get over here, they will treat you in just the same way as they have the farm CTS of France, Belgium and Italy. In these sections farm houses have been shot to pieces, crops wasted and burned; even fruit trees chopped down, the cattle stolen, the men sent into slavery to work for German masters, their women ill-treated in ways that cannot be talked of in print, their little children have had their hands chopped off in order that they may never fight or do any more useful work again.
 You may say such things will not happen here." They said this in France, in Belgium and in Italy. Such things will happen here just as sure as you are alive, unless we smash the Germans so utterly that they are unable to reach this country. The German fleet and the German army will take just one week to get here if we are beaten. They have made up their minds that America shall pay.
 Is there farmer who will stand forward now and say, "This war does not concern me?"
 You have money that you do not need at present. Loan 1t to the Gov ernment at good interest; when you want the money back again, you can borrow on your bond, or sell it. Uncle | Sam will take care of your money until you need 1t and pay you interest on it.
 Go and buy a Liberty Bond to- morrow.
 Don't be stacker, and don't fool yourself with the idea that you are too far away from the war for it to hurt you. Remember 1914, when the | Germans upset the worlds shipping, and you took what you could get for your products.
 Think of the twenty years starva- ton prices ahead of you, in case we | are beaten.
 This Is your war, and if you won't get in it you deserve to lose your | American Citizenship
 Call in at the bank tomorrow. and | talk 1t over.

Third Liberty Loan By Celia Louise Crittenton

Seriously considered, with insight and understanding, the Third Liberty Loan means but one thing-stabilfty. The unification of Government and people.
 The much or little which the peo- pie place at the hands of the Govern ment, proportionate to what they DOS sess, will have behind 1t not alone the voice of the people but as we'll the united will and force of the peo- ple against a war which threatens to engulf the whole national family.
 We are being just to ourselves if we place our money where it is safe. And we are living up to the dictates of our national conscience, which also is our family conscience.
 The most safe and reasonable fu- vestment possible is with our Govern ment For the Government is but ourselves viewed through the magni- lying glass.
 If we were born in tho United States we love our birthplace. It is home. If we were allowed to adopt the United States that offered to us moro than our expressing birth-coun- try; offered to us more freedom, a W1Oer scope, tueu through that 6Q0p- ton we have gained a Privilege worthy of even greater devotion and love.
 So, let us all be glad that a Third Liberty Loan Is pending. It is a good sign that we trust ourselves, that we are ready depositors in the Protecttve Bdnk of Home.
 Keep the home fires burning" is no light slogan, lightly spoken. Only when the fire Is quenched by a bomb dropped down through the home chimney, can we fully realize how precious and prized is that cherished and cheerful flame.
 We must not and shall not wait for that.
 The Third Liberty Bond awaits us and we are ready.
