THE LIBERTY LOAN FEEDS AND
CLOTHES OUR SOLDIERS

Since the beginning of the war,
we have spent for Army use s37,-
100000 for -four; $14,OOO,OOO for
sugar; $43,000,000 for bacon; $12,-
100000 for beans; $9,00O,OOO for
canned tomatoes, and $3.0OO,OOO for
rice. These are only some of the
large items in our Army's bill of
fare. We have spent $126,O0O,OOO
for shoes; over $5O0,O0O,OOO for
clothing, winter and summer; nearly
$3.50. 100000 for blankets.
Our axes for the Army have cost
over $6,000,000; our rolling kitch-
ems $47,000,00O and field ranges
81 100000. The Army is using g.
100000 shovels costing 81 a piece.
Our motor trucks to carry supplies
and ammunition cost $4,000, 900,
and for horse-drawn wagons and
carts we have spent $37,OOO,O0O.
Our 2T9 900 horses and $4,000
mules have cost us nearly 500, ,0OO,-

These figures are large, but we

Prominently placed throughout the town may be seen the new posters advertising the coming fourth Lib. erty loan bond sale, which will com. mence next Saturday and continue until October 19.
 The posters are captioned by ap- propriate headings and depict the despised Hun at his atrocious work. A blood-stained hand print particu- larly attracts the attention. The sum of $1.40O.00O has been allotted as Alaska's share in the billions to be raised throughout the United States during the drive. and it is ex- pected that Fairbanks will come through with its portion While con- ditions are very quiet at the present time. it seems as though there is always one dollar more in the poke to invest in these securities. The bonds will bear one and quarter per cent interest.

KAISER REVEALED ANGER TOWARD
THIS COUNTRY, DECLARES DENTIST
WHO TALKED WITH HIM OF WAR

was thoroughly satisfied that, while
1 had become an alien enemy, I was
nevertheless sort Of privileged char
acter and could remain In Berlin with
more or less impunity until I was
quite ready to leave. Leaving Berlin
was going to entail great personal
sacrifice on my part. In my fourteen
years residence in that city I had
built up . substantial and lucrative
practice Of q character that I would
never be able to duplicate. Notwith-
standing the strained relations which
had existed between my country and
Germany long before the diplomatic
break actually came, few Of my pa
tients had deserted me, and even when
war was declared this situation was
not altered a particle.
Reasons for Leaving.
While. however, my personal safety
was guaranteed. + had peen led to be-
lieye. by no less power than that
OF the kaiser himself. SO that there
was little cause to hasten my depar-
ture from Berlin. and, on the other
most persuasive reasons for remain
ing, there were three reasons which
impelled mo to settle up my affairs and
return homo just as soon as I could
possibly arrange to do so.
When tho Germans sank the Lusi-
S3hAhs 4iSAuB hh0 pIdCIIClu8 In Ger.
many lost much Of their attractions
for me. made up my mind then that
I would rather return home and COM
mence my professional career all over
again. If necessary, than remain in q
country which could sanction such q
hideous form of warfare-the wanton
destruction of women and children
To that end, I went to New York in
the summer of 1915 to Investigate the
requirements for the practice Of my
profession in that state. had an II
linois license, but I wanted to be in
a position to practice in New York,
and the following year went to New
York again and took the state dental
examination. I returned to Germany
late in the autumn Of 1915 and later
learned that my certifcate had been
granted. Then I commenced active
preparations to dispose of my Ger
man practice and return home.
My second reason for wanting to get
out Of Germany as soon as possible
was the fact that food conditions in
Germany were becoming more pre-
carious every day. My wife and
feared that our child, who was two
years old, might suffer from lack of
proper nourishment II we remained,
and determined that no matter how
long IL might be necessary for me to
remain in Berlin, my wife and child
at any rate should leave at the ear
liest possible moment.
My third reason. however. was by
far the most insistent OF all.
had become convinced that what I
knew Of the kaiser and his plans. now
that we were at war, ought to be COM
municated to America without delay
