THE EYE OF THE NATION
 ON NEVADA COUNTY
Nevada County's Quota for Third Liberty Loan Bonds is
 S110, 150.

All is now set for the great Third Liberty Loan drive for $3, 100000 900 with it's over sub. scriptions.
 Every county in every state in the Union, and every town and city in every county, is listed at headquarters of the Liberty Loan Organization at St. Louis. and at the Treasury Department at Washington.
 Each town, city and county has had the quota of bonds it must take allotted to it, and each will be expected and must take the bonds assigned.
 The Financiers everywhere ex- pected the issue to be much lar ger than the $3, 900, 100000 re- quired. Plans were perfected for sale largely in excess of this. Now with the organiza- tions that have been effected the quota should be subscribed in a very brief campaign.
 Many counties and towns have advised headquarters that their quotas are already pledged, and with a little work the over sub scriptions will reach sums that will show the World that the pa triotism of the people has been aroused to high pitch; will show our Allies across the water that the United States may be depended on to do it's part, and will demonstrate to the Kaiser and all Germany that every man in this Nation and every Dollar of America's wealth will be en- listed in the war that is to sweep Prussianism from the face of the Earth.
 For the Third Liberty Loan Nevada County's quota has been fixed at Sl10.15 The county in the second Liberty Loan had $7l, 900 for it's minimum; the target was SIS, 300; the actual subscription totaled $50. 600, and was taken by 301 subscribers.

NEW U. 5. ARMY RIFLE SHOWS IMPROVEMENTS OVER OTHER
 MODELS

The United States rifle, model of 1917, commonly called the modified Enfield, has now been tested in the service of the Army sufficient time to warrant the assertion that it more than jus- tifies the claims made for it, ac. cording to a statement author ized by the Secretary of War.
 The new rifle takes a .30-cali Der cartridge, which hss the ad- vantage over the British Enfield of being rimless. It has been found that unless rim cartridges are fed through the magazine uniformly with the rim of the top cartridge ahead of the rim of the one immediately below, jams are likely to occur.
 The model of 1917 has an over- all length of 46.3 inches; total weight Including oiler and thong case and bavonet of 10 pounds and } ounces. The breech mech- anism is of the bolt type.

owing to the large failure of the 1917

Former Catholic Ousted
NOTED MOVIE STAR BANNED IN
CLEVELAND - DESERTED HIS
CATHOLIC WIFE AND CHILDREN.

The decision of a moving picture
theater in Cleveland to discontinue
the presentation of films in which a
certain prominent movie actor and
actress are shown is worthy of note.
The reason for this is that the couple
figured in a divorce and a remarriage.
The husband in both instances, a
former Catholic, has been sued for
divorce by the wife of his less pros
porous and pre-movie years and the
mother Of his five children. His Sec
ond wife is his "co-star" in the movie
world.
Eve are not Catholics" said mem
Der of the company which operates
this particular theater, "and it is not
on religious grounds that we have de-
cided to show no further films in
which this particular couple play, but
the action of man in practically de-
sorting the wife and the mother of
his five children did not appeal to us
and we have decided that there are
enough other good films to show with
out using his" ~
