has been completed and returned to

persons feeling themselves aggriev-
ed are herby requested to make out

way or the other. 1t will buy one
high explosive bomb, dropped on some
Boche fortification, or pay for the
gasoline that will carry the bombing
plaza and its fighting protectors far
into Germany.
The deadly machine gun that is
geared to shoot between the blades of
the propeller can be bought with the
proceeds Of four $50 bonds.
A days fighting for an American
pilot usually means that an observa-
ton plane. signalling back hits Snd
ranges to batteries in the rear, can
continue its invaluable work. With
out the fast fighter to protect him the
slower flying observation plane would
be an easy prey for the Hun. The
American who buys one $500 bond
pays for that days fighting.

SCHOOL NOTES
(Wilbur Richards)

(Wilbur Richards)
The generosity of the class of 1920
was again shown last Friday night.
Instead of having weiner roast for
themselves alone, they were kind
encrgh to invite the whole High
school, both faculty and students.
There were SO many in attendance
at this fry that some two dollars
worth of weiners were consumed and
all wild animals were afraid to come
within hearing distance. The reason
was, we had Wolfe to fight the
wolf.
Those absent this week are Lysle
McCray, Carol Tyler, Elmer Blood,
Joe Menegatti, Helen Goldberg, Har-
old Hambly Esther Nordlien and
Wilbur Richards.
We wonder where all the boys
came from that were in the Senior
class on Monday and Tuesday.

There is a spirit of romance about
the air service that appeals to the
average American, and at this stage
of the war nothing is more important.
The planes have been called 'the eyes
of the army but now they will -be
more, for they will carry the war into
Germany. Tons of high explosives
dropped from the skies are advance
notices that the war is moving toward
Berlin.
Not everyone can qualify for the air
service, but with the coming Of the
Fourth Liberty Loan everyone can
have a direct hand in its activities.
The purchase Of one $50 bond, for
instance, will pay for the ammunition
used in a sharp 2-minute fight with q
Hun plane and, once in action, two
minutes usually decides the battle one

Last Monday afternoon when Mes.
osmes A. A. Hartong and Oliver I,
Cheney were coming to town from
the rarch with a horse and buggy,
and while cut about three miles
from Cak Creek, near the Iron
Spring Jones ranch, the horse sud-
denly became frightened at some
bedding alongside of the road. The
horse turned suddenly upsetting the
buggy, throwing Mrs. Hartong out
and Mrs. Cheney between the front
wheels ard the bed of the buggy.
She managed to crawl back into the
buggy end tried to get hold of the
lines but they were not within reach.
The buggy then hit rock and she
was thrown between the wheels and
while being dragged broke two
bones of the right leg between the
knee and the ankle. She was briis.
cd very badly from head to foot.
Some peoIle rassing by in an auto
mobile went to her rescue and
brought Mrs. Cheney to the Oak
Creek hospital where she is doing

Chas. Stark brought Mrs. Hartong,
who was not injured but badly
shaken UP, back to her home.-Oas

COME ON NOW
BUY A BOND

Subscriptions to the Fourth Liber-
ty loan are not being made with the
eaGerness that was anticipated in
Gilpin county ard unless there is a
sreeGirg up, both as to number Of
subscribers and to amounts subscrib-
cd Gilpin county will not make its
quota of $75,0O0-it will not even
approximate it. The people seem
to have overlooked the fact that just
twice the effort is required on their
part in this drive as was needed in
the last loan. Scarcely ten days of
the drive remain ard from now on
there must be a decided move for
ward or Gilpin will be numbered
among the few sections called but
found wanting.
In looking over the list that is
published as just q starter, 1t is no
siced that names do not appear there
that have also been conspicuous by
their absence in the previous Liber-
ty loan drives and We ask, how long,
% Lord, is this refusal or failure to
buy going to continue. With some
1t is developing into a habit-both
Lhe failure to buy and the reason
can't afford it. And DON'T forget
that the poverty plea in this great
cause is shameful reflection upon
a mans worth ard ability and that
an able bodied man who can't earn
enough above the amount necessary
for him to live SO that he can help
his government by buying bond on
the installment plan is not worth
the country's great effort to protect.
The names of the subscribers to
this loan will he published in toto
and the list will be sent to the boys
overthere that they may see those at
home who are keeping the faith and
playing fair with them by doing their
part behind the lines. This is an

Neither age nor station nor any

enter the war lightly. We entered IL

for the fullest giving of all we have

never doubt, will come to those who

Mistakes Inevitable.
There have been mistakes, many
delays that have tried our patience,
said the secretary later on in his
speech, 'but which were inevitable
under conditions where work that or
dinarily would have consumed years
had to be done in months But taken
by and large, looking back over the
most momentous twelve months III
our generation, there is no reason to
feel ashamed of the record America
has made"

Mr.. Daniels stated, but the number
will be accelerated as fast as ships
are provided. and the number OF ships
will increase every month.
