ago today, April 81, 1917.
HE has gone beyond deaths river,

Colonial Quotations
Fit Present Days.
Words Of Famous Americans Seem
to Show They Foresaw the
Liberty Loan.

George Washington-"It is an old
maxim that the surest way to make
a good peace is to be prepared for
war"
Thomas Observation-Disclosures pro
vokes insult and injury, while a con-
ditlon to punish it often prevents it,"
Benjamin Franklin-"We must in
deed all hang together or, most as
suredly, we will all hang separately"
James Monroe-"A ~defenseless po-
sition and a distinguished love of
peace are the surest invitations to
war"
Andrew Jackson-"We shall more
certainly preserve peace when it is
well understood that we are prepared
for war"
Robert NOTES.-The enemy will
ask for peace only when we are in a
position vigorously to prosecute war"
Liberty Loans Of Other Days.
Robert Morris, Superintendent Of
Finance in the American Revolution,
in a circular to the governors Of the
states on October 10, 1881, wrote:
at is not by the brilliant successes
of war, the splendor of conquest or
the shouts of victory that a wise min
istry are to be affected. The superb
Gritty of national is the sure
ground on which to hope for success,
and that superior resource, steadily
and perseVerinsIy applied, must even
tually attain its object.
at is possible that we are heal the
close of this war, and perhaps we are
only in the middle of it. But if the
val should continue, we have to
blame ourselves; for were these re-
sources called into action which we
really possess, the foreign enemies
would soon lose all hope and abandon
their enterprise.
"f we do our duty now the war will
soon be brought to a close; if not, it
may last for many years, and what
will then be it's termination it is not
in our wisdom to foresee. The enemy
will ask for peace only when we are
in a condition vigorously to prosecute
the war.
at is necessary that we should be
in condition to prosecute the war with
ease before we can expect to lay down
our arms with security, before we can
treat of peace honorabIy, and before
we can conclude II with advantage.
Between opposition and submission
there is no middle line. The idea of
submission is, and eve ought to be,
rejected with disdain. Opposition,
therefore, becomes a matter of neces.
sity, and that opposition involves
expense.
at; remains only to provide mel
and money, and to make that pro
vision as early as possible, for the old
adage that he who gives early doubles
thereby his gift can neVer be more
applicable than on the present occa-
sion. For whatever may be the diff
ferent opinions of different men, all
must agree that the only way to Sc
cure peace is to be prepared for war"

BOND VS.. BILL.

Which would you rather have, q
500 Liberty Bond or a S1OO bill?
Quick, now! Answer right up. THE
500 bill?"
You're wrong again. Sure, you
could spend it. But that isn't the
point. A bond will save it.
A Liberty Bond bears interest; a
bill does not.
Currency or money in the bank Is
taxable; the Liberty Bond is subject
only to inheritance tax and surplus
war profits tax.
1t escapes state, county and city tax.
If you lose a registered 800 Liberty
Bond its value is insured to you;
while. II you lose a bill. Good Night"

Our Fathers Influence.

AS if to conclude the argument that
we, of today, should heed the wisdom
of our f%orefathers, that other great
American. Abraham Lincoln, said:
81 do not mean to say we are bound
to follow implicitly in whatever u
fathers did. To do so would be to dis
card all the lights of current expert
ence-to reject all progress, all i'm
provement. What do a is that II
we would supplsnt the opinions and
policy Of our fathers in any case, we
should do so Upon evidence SO con
elusive, and argument so clear that
ever their great authority, fairly con-
sidered and weighed, cannot stand"
With these words Of great Ameri-
cans fresh in the mind who can say
mat the subscribing, and moreover,
the over-subscribing of the Third Lib.
erty Loan is not the most important
thing in all America today.

MY Soldier Girl" a musical comedy
, with II military atmosphere, was the
| attraction ut the Odeon Tuesday even
ing and attracted an audience that
filled two thirds OF the seating capa-
city OF the theater Since its appear
| ance here last year the comedy has
been revised materially, and now is a
mixture of high and low comedy,
good dancing. vaudeville and patriotic
sentiment, with an insignificant story
Thes kaiser and the Huns are made
the butt of most of the jokes and the
themes Of several of the songs. and
made decided hits with the audience
Gudrun Walberg, in the title role,
sings and speaks with a decided
French accent. which bellies her Scan
dinavian name. She is clever and a
good dancer. however. and makes good
despite her lack of a remarkable
voice. She was well supported in the
male section of the cast The chorus
was deliberately, altho at times &C.
Centrically costumed. but not strong
musically. Miss Walberg is credited
with designing all the costumes for
the company.
Miss Walberg went the limit in her
songs sung on the runway built over
the orchestra seats. and when re-
called several times went among the
audience and sang to and kissed some
of the men, regardless OF the fact that
they were accompanied by wives and
sweethearts.

seven Scott has not given up hope.
Another candidate has received word
from the comission which, however, he
does not believe absolutely eliminates
him. He is Miller S. Mcfarland, re-
publican who has been given rating.
Mr. +arland said he did not know how
the rating would stand in the manner
now employed in choosing postmast,
err He considers his rating sufficiently
good to warrant consideration were it
based on the methods used when he
was in the postoffice
What About Other Three?
There are four other candidates who
claim not to have received any word
from the comm! ssion about the post
office contest There may he fifth
but he is out of town. As far as his
wife knows no notice has been received.
II such be the case there may be five
still in the race.

he has received nothing. Theodore II.

to show that he is not to be considered

Mrs FurlOng says that her husband
has not informed her II he has received
any notice, and she thinks he would
have written her had he got word in
dtcating that he was no longer in the
race.
However. altho eight Of the cand-
dates admit that they have had word
from the commission, and six of the
eight consider themselves as elimin-
ated. a mail carrier informed one of
! the candidates that the mail that
| brought the notices contained eleven
envelopes, all from the commission. and
all apparently containing something
concerning the postoffice. II the ad-
dresses of the letters were any indica-
| ton.
| The ones without notice now are the
anxious ones, and at least six OF the
thirteen may pursue the ordinary rout-
inc of their own businesses without
wondering If their businesses are to
| be interfered with by the postoffice.

The current attraction at the Strand
is Vivian Martin in Her Country
First the story of which is written
by Mary Roberts Rinehart who has
made a charming little comedy drama
centering around the beautiful young
daughter OF a munitions manufacturer
who makes up her mind to be a real
patriot. The character of the daugh
ter, Dorothy Grant, is taken by Vivian
Martin, who most admirably portrays
the patriotic young girl who risks her
life to prevent German spies from
wrecking the plant in the interest OF
their government. The story is filled
with umusing situations which Miss
Martin brings out in her delightful way
with the assistance of splendid cast.

Christmas At The Churches.

In spite of the inclement wealth
er and bad roads last Sunday
morning, the churches of the
town all report good attendar ce
at the special services. The
goal set was not reached, but
the total of 273 reported at the
three churches having services s
represents an attendance cor sid
erably above the average. Rev.
Geo. White. of the Baptist
church, was unfortunately un-
able to be here, but the members
of that church were we'll repre-
sented at the other churches.
Christmas music, and special
sermons on the Advent, added
to the interest of the services.
