SPEED UP!

What is the reason for the sale of Liberty Bonds slowing up in this town? Is it because of the German peace offensive or because every man woman and child who can has already purchased a bond of the Fighting Fourth Liberty Loan? Something seems to be radically wrong and un- less we wish to lose entirely the eff feet of the magnificent start we have made in this campaign, someone must come across and buy Liberty Bonds.
 The list of subscribers to date shows that only small number of the residents of this town have pur- chased bonds of this issue and we be- ieve there are many more who could buy at least $50 bond by pinching a little. On the other hand there are many who have already pur- chased bonds of large denominations who could we'll afford to purchase still more. This is no time to slack en our efforts. If necessary, this is the time when we must make some sacrifices, eliminate everything of a non-essential character and lend this money to the government.
 The recent German peace propa- gaTda will undoubtedly have some effect upon the faint-hearted, the the pacifst and the stacker, but to the real American, whether of for aign birth or not, the answer to the Han will be the purchase of one more Liberty bond. The vast major ity uf people want no peace without victory and the soldiers in the trenches, who understand what we are fighting for far better than we who stay at home, will have no peace talk until the Hun has been forced t1. retreat on German soil.
 The Stars and Stripes, the official newspaper published by the soldiers os the American Expeditionary F0rres in France says editoriaily am,ut the enemy peace offensive.
 Let the weak hearted who are
 dreaming of a compromise; let the . pacifsts who are talking a peace by agreement; let the sideliners
 who have had enough of war; let the secretly inclined pro-Germans who think this war should end
 without a decision-let them one
 and all know once and for all that
 for the American Expeditionary
 Force there is no such word as
 'Readenr with the Hun unbeaten.
 The man who talks of peace to-
 day, except through victory, is a
 traitor"
 You will not hear of any people talking peace today. but the man O. woman who withholds his or he,

Her arm pressed more closely about
his neck. "Father," she whispered,

wonderfully splendid, just as you are.
1t isn't what you've said, not what
you've done for us, it's Just because
you have always made us so sure of
you. We never had to wonder about
father, or ask ourselves-we were sure.

over and kissed him again. "NOw we

paused a moment. $50 will l."
But the months passed, and Fairy
seemed content to stay quietly at home,
embrolderlng as Prudence had done,
laughing at the twins as they tripped
gnyly, rlotously through college. And
then In the early spring she sent an
urgent note to Prudence.
"YOu must come home for q few
days, Prue, you and Jerry. It's just
because l want you and l need you,
and know you won't go back on me.
Just wire you are coming-the three
of you. 1 know you'll be here, since
1t is / who ask It."
1t followed naturally that Prudence's
answer was satisfactory. "Of course
wen come"
Fairy's plans were very simple.
"We'll have nice family dinner Tues
day evening. Wen all be together,
nice and quiet, just our own little
bunch. Don't have dates, twins-of

After the first confusion of welcom-
ing Prudence home, and making fun
of daddy Jerry" and testing the
weight and length of little Fairy, they
all settled down to a parsonage home
gathering. Just few minutes before
the dinner hour, Fairy took her ia
theirs hand.
"Come into the Iimelight," she said
softly; st want you" He passed little
Fairy over to the Outstretched arms Of
the nearest auntie, and allowed him
self to be led into the center of the
room.

her quickly, holding out a slender roll
of paper. "It's our license" said
Fairy. 1--WE think we'd like to be
married now, father, if you WILL"
He looked at her questioningly, but
Understandings. The girls clustered
about them with eager Outcries, half
protest, half encouragement.
"Its my day, you know" cried Fairy,
"and this is my way"
She held out her hand, and Gene
took it very tenderly in his. Mr.. Starr
looked at them gravely for a moment,
and then in the gentle voice that the
parsonage girls insisted was his most
valuable ministerial asset, he gave his
second girl in marriage.
1t surely was Fairy's way, plain and
sweet, without fOrmality. And the
dinner that followed was just happy
family dinner. Fairy's face was so
glowing with content, and Genes atti-
tude was so tender, and so ludicrously
proud, that the twins at last were con-
vinced that this was right, and all was
well.
But that evening, when Genes par
ents had gone away, ana after Fairy
and Gene themselves had taken the
carriage to the station for their little
vacation together, and Jerry and Pru-
dence were putting little Fairy to bed,
the three girls left in the home sat
drearily in their bedroom and talked
1t over.

Air Raid Costumes.

In the West end there was a very
smart display, am told, of Zeppelin
costumes. These are usually made Of
silk or satin, warmly lined, of the ma
ture of a dressing gown, but often
trimmed with fur, with a cap to match.
On likely nights they are laid out near
the bed so that the lady can in few
minutes be ready for the street or the
cellar. The caps are particularly
smart, and solve the difficulty of ar-
ranging the hair. Vacuum TASKS and
electric torches are part of the outfit.

Austrian internal conditions, like
those Of Hungary and the dual
monarchy as a whole, have been
extremely unsettled for some time,
the agitation being due not only to
complications over foreign affairs,
but to the question of suffrage re-
form in Hungary and the constant
racial disputes in both Kingdoms.
Premier Won Seydler rendered his
resignation Of the Austrian cabinet
early in February because of trou-
bles with the Polish delegates over
the budget, but Emperor Charlie:
refused to allow the minister to re
tire. There were reports last week
from Vienna that DR., Won Scydlel
had again offered his resignation
but these were not confirmed.
