make the world "safe for democracy"
Not all of us can fight. In my town
of Amherst only about sixty men so
far out of a population of $500 have
actually gone into7 the army. That
leaves $40 of us at home. The same
proportion holds good in every town
in America.
"The Liberty Loan supplies us-the
great mass of us who must remain be-
hind-the opportunity of doing some
thing vital, something really impor-
tant, in helping to win. We can lend
a little of our money to the nation
that the nation may send our boys to

erty and democracy. If these young

willingly offer their blood for the

Ray Stannard Baker, the writer and
investigator, particularly well known
for his Adventures in Contentment,"
which appeared under the pen name
of "David Grayson" and which shows
that Mr.. Baker is at heart one with
the country resident, says this about
buying Liberty bonds:
81 look upon the Liberty Loan not
80 much as a duty, although it is a
duty, nor as favor to the govern
ment-an investment as safe as Gil
braltar at good interest rate is
surely no favor to anybody but the
investor-I look upon it rather as
an opportunity for us to get together
all of us-in a great and noble un-
dertaking.

MOND'S QUOTA for the third Liberty
Loan.
Five department stores-J. B. Mosby
& Co., Fourqurean, Temple & Co., Mil
Ter q Rhoads, Thalhimer's and
Cohen's; two hotels-Murphy's and the
jefferson; the Main-street postoffice,
and Tragle's drug store offered their
services to the woman's committee and
in almost every instance built and
decorated the booths in which bonds
were to be sold.
J. B. Mosby g. Co. offered prize
Of $3.50 to the organization making the
biggest sales in their store, and sup
plemented this with generous prize
Of 800 for the organization making
the biggest sales in the city. From
day to day the organization totaling
the largest amount for the day is pub
lished, and at the end of the drive, on,
May 4, the total amount of subscrip-
tons taken in by each organization
will be published.
The women have gone into the mat
ter with the utmost interest and en-.
thusiasm. A friendly rivalry for the
prizes exists between organizations,
and so far from not being able to
induce women to work at these booths,
Mrs. Seay has had to let in several
organizations which clamored to be al
lowed to do their patriotic part, even
though there was no chance for them
to equal the amounts taken in by
richer and more influential bodies.
Novel Publicity Features.
There have been some interesting
publicity features introduced by the
woman's committee. One booth has
Liberty Loan bell, which strikes when
a purchaser buys bond. Another has
as q trophy German helmet. In the
windows of the department stores have
been placed small replicas in plaster
of Paris of the trenches, the ruined
villages, the tanks numbering across
the wastes of No Mans Land, and
other reproductions of phases Of life
cover There.'
The new Browning machine gun, in
charge Of a machine section of one
officer and twenty-one men, has also
been loaned from Camp Lee to demon
strate the necessity of funds for the
munitions of war if the Hun is to DO
whipped.
After consultation with several
prominent bankers Mrs. Seay decided
that subscriptions taken at the seven
booths in the banks and trust COM
panies, though they came under her
craftsmanship, should not be counted
in each day with subscriptions taken
in at booths run solely by women's Or
CARNATIONS. "Women in the banks
are working with the men, not against
Them" was the way she summed it up.
The third Liberty Loan drive is not
yet half over. Women know that there
is long. hard pull ahead of them,
but so great is their courage and en-
thusiasm that the last day Of the drive
will find them as high-hearted and
ready to do their share as they have
been during the first week.

"THE BOY SCOUT POSTER"

Boy Scouts of America sold more

this good record and their desire to

the treasury department through the
courtesy of ]. c. Leyendecker and the
Saturday Evening Post. A million Of
the posters, in eight colors, showing
