LIBERTY BONDS GREAT FOR
ESTATES.

Edward B. Pryor, president of the
! State National Bank of St. Louis,
/ and a specialist in security values,
says he is advising but one thing to
persons seeking his advice relative to
investments, i.e., to purchase Liberty
Bonds.
mo investment in the world" said
Mr.. Pryor, "is safer, and viewed
from the angle of average invest
ment returns in the past, the yield is
large. Formerly when Government
bonds. were paying only from 2 1-2
to 3 LIZ per cent net it was rather
d~iscouraging to recommend their
purchase to investors. Now, however,
the case is very different. When you
w a Government backed security
paying 4 LIZ per cent you've got
something.
Particularly good for women in
vestors are the Liberty Bonds. They
constitute an estate more easily
handled than any other class of prop
erty. With the minimum of i~nstruc-
lion any woman can be schooled in
how to manage and handle her bonds
so that she can not be deprived of
them, regardless of her business
equipment.
Further the tax feature is 50
small asto be almost negligible. Up
to $4,000 there is no tax whatever.
From that figure up the bonds are
free from the normal tax, and sub
ject only to the sur-tax, which in
blocks from $50 900 to $4,000 is
hardly worth mentioning. Trainers
of the laws creating these issues had
no idea of making them productive
to the Government in general tax
levies. They are to supply war funds,
and every effort was made to make
them attractive to buyers.
eff anyone in to me to in
quire relative to investing money,
my u%nchanging formula is to buy
Liberty Bonds. In doing this it is
not possible TO make a mistake or
incur loss. Other investments are
doubtless good, but who can predict
what conditions will be after the
war. Women and others whose liv-
ing depends on their incomes a not
exert too great caution in these un-
precedented times. To my way OF
thinking zenith of caution is TO puy
American Government bonds.
at is needless to say anything
about the values back of Liberty
Bonds and their desirability as col
lateral. No business concern or in
dividual can place its or his surplus
in a more flexible and liquid asset.
The solid comfort and satisfaction of
such an investment is, in my mind,
the greatest incentive next to patriot
ism in acquiring Liberty Bonds"

WILSON & FLY AND HORSES.

Genada has had many men to
come into her midst to sell horses,
but there are few that were ever
here that brought SO many hearty
laughs as R. R. Wilson of the firm
of Wilson & Fly, Milan, Tenn.
This firm was here for several sea-
sons prior to the invading of this
county by the boil weevil and they
never failed to sell what they brought
here and felicitate over the fact that
those who have dealt with them the
most are their best friends. When
men wear well by continued acquain-
lance, it shows that they have those
elements of regard for their assOci-
ates that make for lasting friend
ships.
The firm of Wilson & Fly are
among Tennessee's largest and most
prominent stock dealers and are con
, sidered authorities on horse flesh.
They live in a section that the very
atmosphere almost means big, fine
horses and mules.
On last Saturday this firm almost
startled Grenada by offering two car
loads of horses, mules and mares for
| sale at one time. 1t was an auction
sale. A great crowd assembled at
the old wagon yard fronting on First
, street and from the very jump the
interest was intense and the bidding
lively. They went almost like hot
cakes. So great was the interest
| that the firm announces that it will
have another auction sale here Satur-
day, October 5.
On Saturday of this week, Sep
TENDER %, they will sell a a load
! at auction in the town of Charleston.
The firm of Wilson & Fly stand
behind every every sale they make.
This fact serves to satisfy the credul-
Gus minded and to make one and all
know that what they buy is just as
represented.
Let the Grenada trade get ready
for the big sale Saturday, Oct. s..

WILL THEY BACK
US UP AT HOME
EA;s 10 The One Big Question Our
Boys Are Asking lover There"

In a letter from Somewhere in
France" that came the other day
these lines appeared:
II suppose you are all pretty Husy
over there with war work DO you
aznow that there is only one thing
that is bothering the Americans who
IRE doing the fighting over here and
that is, Are they going to back US
10 ut homer"
This fellow who wrote the letter
has been in France for eighteen
months now. He joined up over there
while on a war mission. He is in a
machine gun battalion and has been
fighting steadily for weeks in the
great offensive. He knows what the
Hun is like. He has met him n
beaten him. He no longer worries
abeut the Hun. He is worrying about
as back here at home where no shell
fire streaks the nights and no black
puffs of shrapnel spot the daylight
skies.
Are we going to back him up, he
and the hundreds of thousands that
have gone? Not with lip-loyalty and
good wishes" and whispered hopes
that Fritz has had enough and is
going to Quit" and the wal is going
TO "be over by Christmas?"
Are we going to back those chaps
with guns and steel, with wheat and
beef and with that iron determina-
ton that makes up the second and
third lines of armies, that makes the
fighting front extend back across the
Atlantic and into every home and by
every fireside in America? That Is
the kind of backing that counts.
We can't all grow wheat and port
for the fighting man. We can't al
heat to a red heat the six and nine
nch shells that are going to do thu
talking to the Kaiserites. We can
all get into the olive drab and worl
the bolt on a rifle.
But-we can all buy Libert!
Bonds. The Fourth Loan is here
The big drive opens September 20
He is a poor sort of American, maj
or woman, who can't buy n bond a
least.
We are having it pretty easy owe
here compared with what those il
Trance are facing. 1t is costing u
more to live and we are being ration
ed on sugar and the bread is not al
white and a lot of loafers are having
to 20 to work for the first time il
their worthless lives, but hardship
hasn't really touched US yet.
We can buy bonds.
