the war are beginning to receive rich
returns on their investment.
The war news from the eastern
front th.se days is bad news for the
German people. Quotations from
German newspapers portray the
gloom that overhangs the people in
the large cities. That the people in
the small towns and country are equal

The liberty loan bond buyers of the
preceding loans have their share in
the success of the entente allies. They

allies so that they may prosecute the
war with vigor and strength.
We here at home have an oppor-

they give their government. the moral

give their armies in the field.
A tremendous subscription to the
fourth liberty loan will be as distress

for them on the battle field. and II
will mean as much. 1t spells their
defeat; it breaks their morale; ii
means power to their enemies. A sub
scription to the loan will be a contri-
button to German defeat and Ameri-
can victory.

But the leave-areas. like all of the

Kansas has some strange laws, in

of the queerest of-these. he thinks is
the one which forbids a man who has
obtained a divorce, to marry again

fact that his prospective wife No. 2

makes this law all the harder to OBJ

a residence on West Twenty-first

the conclusion that he had best pack

should settle down to housekeeping
