BANKERS HELP FARMERS

Give the bankers a long credit
mark-they have helped finance the
war industries and food produc-
ton.
In Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Cali
fornia and other western states they
are showing up 100-per cent.
Banks are lending their assist
ance to the general movement to fos-
ter and encourage livestock indus
try. The banks are working with
the club idea, helping finance pig
clubs. bull clubs and COW clubs. The
idea has been successful in the
Northwest and bears the endorse
ment of the American Bankers As
ISOLATION.
The banks believe in assisting the
boys toward an Independent career,
and find that through the boy, the
father is also reached.
The banks finance the boys who
agree to enter the work under the
instruction of the extension service
of the state and encourage the
raising of livestock on the farms
in general. By taking the lead in
this work, the banks find that they
are assisting a worthy movement as
well as helping in the building up
and development of the country.

GOODWIN DESERVES SUPPORT
So Says a Prominent Public Man.


DR.. Sherman l.. Divine, prominent in
war work, and pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church of Spokane, has
given his unqualified endorsement to
the candidacy of Frank M. Goodwin
for the republican nomination for Con
gress, saying in his magazine;
1.-THE Greetings bespeaks for F. M.
Goodwin, one of the elders of this
church, generous and consistent
support in the Fifth Congressional dis
trict. Mr.. Goodwin is a man four
square, loyal, patriotic citizen, a man
of sound judgment and mistaken con

ing speaker. AS a student of world
problems and the vital issues involved
In this present struggle, he has the
understanding to cope with the larger
affairs of the nation. He has always
been total abstainer and an earnest
advocate of national prohibition. He

RUSSIA AS AN OBJECT LESSON

Of course, all kinds of property
in Russia has little value, and no
one invests a dollar there.
The bottom has been knocked out
Of business and the new era of so
cialism and radicalism is on.
If you are a socialist or a radi-
cal on any line you ought to move
to Russia and enjoy yourself,
German spectators are picking
mp Russian railroads, banks, mines
and utilities for a song.
Russian stockholders are eager to
part with their investments on any
terms this side of confiscation.
Germany is taking advantage of
this condition to get the tightest
hold on the industries of Russia.
Any state in the union that goes
into the socialistic game should do
so with full warning.
Radicalism and socialism knock
the bottom out of property and in
vestments and all confidence.
A state that turns its government
over to the Non-Partisan League
and industrial democracy knows
what is coming.
Investments stop, industries Ian
"uish. and capital ceases 20 be ac-
lively engaged in any undertaking.
In the destructive sense war on
big business never did anything but
cripple little business.

 Heading the big vaudeville onerang Guy J. Sampsell and Lily Leonhard, late of "F1orabella" and Good Nlgnt Paul" assisted by Don Mathews at the plano, will exemplify the artistic arts of singing, dancing and comedy dialogue. Because of their long expe- rience in musical and dramatic stock, the versatility of these prominent vaudevillians accentuates with the beautiful settings which are used in connection with the episodes,

THOUSANDS OF AUTO
 OWNERS ARE TO BE AFFECTED

The request of the federal fuel ad- ministration that automobilists re- frain from using their cars on Sun days will affect 67,445 Connecticut car owners, about 1000 of whom live in Hartford. About 5000 motorcy- clists are also affected by the request. The number of people who will feel the effects of the new restriction is, of course, greatly in excess of the number of car owners, as most of the cars on the road on Sunday are filled with people; and from the appearance of the state highways the past few Sundays almost every car in the state is out.
 Commissioner of Motor Vehicles Robbins B. Stoeckel said yesterday that the order seemed rather hard on good many car owners who have practically no time for ride through the country but Sunday But if ii will do anything to win the war quickly, I am in favor of it." said MT Stoeckel, Nothing else counts"

LYRIC

Rehearsals for the wonderful war { reduction, Lilac Time" with which ! the Lyric theatre will reopen for the season 191S-19 on Monday, Labor Day. will begin tonight under the di- rection of Willard Deshiell, the new director. The entire new company of players arrived in Bridgeport yester- day but were given an opportunity of resting up after the long trip from Pennsylvania whence most of them came. Everything will be in readi- ness at the matinee on Monday for the successful presentation of one of ! the best and most famous war plays that has ever been produced in New England and those who have not yet made reservations are urged to do so 1 at once. The box office will be open each day this week from 10 o'clock in the morning until o'clock at night and next week at the usual hours.
 Lilac Time" is one of the few war productions that has the war as a foundation yet does not depict any of the horrors of battle. Its theme is built about a pretty love story be- tween an English army captain and a pretty French girl who plight their troth in lilac time. There are numer- ous pretty situations and Just enough comedy to keep the audience in good humor, forming what has been con- oeded by the most exacting critics one of the most charming productions ever portrayed by company of play CTS
 . The Lyric theatre has been closed during the summer months and its reopening is being hailed with delight by those who enjoyed many of the productions given there last season During the coming season even greater things are promised as is ev1 denced by the many innovations which have been introduced and with a new company, new scenry and list o, plays second to none, there is nc question of it's success during th' coming year. Manager Arvine ha spent both time and money to ac
 complish this and he is confident tha
 his efforts will be rewarded in thu
