CZECHO-S IN
BALTIMORE BUY
MANY WAR STAMPS

The CZecho-Slovaks have been buy
ing war savings stamps. On the &C.
casion of Professor Masary's recent
visit to the Czech people of Baltimore
$4,000 worth of the baby bonds were
subscribed in a single day by them.
And this was not all. The campaign
in Baltimore is not ended, and new
subscriptions are pouring in regularly.
According to available figures, the
Czecho-Slovaks hold third place
among our foreign-born peoples for
subscriptions to government loans.
They bought about $31,000,000 worth
of Third Liberty Bonds, exclusive of
the subscriptions of workmen in mines
and other outlying places. SO it APP
pears that the Czechs are not willing
to rest on the laurels won by their
fighting men in Russia and Siberia.
They are making their dollars work.

CHAUTUAQUA IN WAR
TIMES

My attention has just been called
to iront-page article in your paper
entitled ''Chautauqua and War Neces-
sites" signed by one Forest ]. Hunt,
and upon reading ii I find that both
the expected and the unexpected has
happened.
II was expected that someone would
be found in every community visited
by Chautauqua whose general lack OF
information and shortsightedness
would lead them 10 oppose Chautau-
qua in that community but it is GER
tainly novel experience TO have one
Of the Committee who was responsible
for bringing Chautauqua to Ketchi-
kan openly oppose his own program
and do it in the Press over his own
signature, Its an i'll bird that fouls
its own nest"
Mr.. Hunt rightly charges that the
people OF ketchikan have the right
TO know the status of Chautauqua in
war times and what our people are
doing to support the Government, in
war policies, hence the occasion of
this letter
During the Season of 1917 every
Chautauqua program in over 5000
towns carried at least one speaker
whose message was a stirring appeal
for patriotic service back OF the Gov
eminent and the Flag; recognizing
the splendid service thus rendered
President Wilson personally wrote TO
the President OF the Chautauqua AS
ISOLATION urging the necessity of
Chautauqua programs in time of war
and closing his letter with these
words: Let me express the hope
that you will let no disbursement
weaken your activity and that the
people will not fail in their support of
patriotic institution that may be
said to be an inegral part of national
defense"

the terrible treatment imposed on
British and American prioners OF
war One group captured in May
were forced to work from 6 a. m. to

them with rifle butts. One prisoner
died of this treatment.
