CONVERTING BONDS

We feel certain that many of the
purchasers of Liberty Bonds do not
realize that it is possible to convert
their bonds which are paying less
than Az per cent into bonds which
do pay this rate of interest. 1t is
also equally certain that many hold
ers of bonds will not have them con-
verted, even though they have the
privilege. The latter class purchased
bonds with the spirit of patriotism
and not financial gain, uppermost in
their minds and hearts, feeling that
the needs of their government should
come first.
Regardless of the fact whether
holders of Liberty Bonds realize it
or. not, bonds of the various loans
which have been made will not be
convertible after November LIST into
those paying higher rate of interest
The bonds of the first Liberty Loan
being exempt from all taxes, are
sought for by large investors, while
co the small investor it is more de-
sirable to have bonds paying the
higher rate of interest, inasmuch as
they would not be liable to pay a
tax unless they were also liable fol-
the tincome tax.

seems to have adopted the view that
a corporation may have soul, since
it has authorized national banks to
contribute to the American National
Red Cross out of any net profits
available under the law for the decla-
ration of dividends. The law further
provides that funds so contributed
shall be used by the Red Cross in fur
nishing voluntary aid to the sick and
wounded of the combatant armies,
the voluntary relief of the Army and
Navy of the United States, and the
relief of the suffering caused by the
war to the people of the United
States and their allied nations.

OUR HONOR ROLL

The people Of this town have been
asked to contribute to general fund
which will be used for the purpose of
erecting an honor roll of the men
from this town who have entered
the service of their country. This is
indeed one of the many little acts
which we owe to the boys who have
gone and while we are doing these
little things, which will be highly ap-
preciated by these men, let's do them
with our whole heart and not have
any half way measIr mar an under
taking which should be the pride of
every individual in this community.
The amount Of each individuals
contribution has been wisely limited
to one dollar, which gives every one
an equal share in patriotic work in
which all should join. At the present
time about one-half of the sum
needed has been contributed, which
shows that there are great many
people who have contributed nothing
whatsoever. Perhaps some may
think that enough money will be
solicited and that their contribu-
don will not be needed. If this is
the case, it is erroneous, as every
person should have share and if
there is more than enough to pay the
expense, turn the balance over to
the Red Cross.
It is foregone conclusion that
those who have not contributed have
no sons in the service. Perhaps they
will have at least relative some
time, therefore, everybody dig down
for dollar and be able to say that
you paid for at least one nail in this
honor roll, which will be the pride of
the. town.

during this war seems to disprove the

could speak with authority.
His talk dealt more with thehuman
side Of the war than with the atrocit-
les. He showed what the men are
going through over there, every day
and how little we at home really
know about war. His description Of
the pangs Of thirst was very vivid, he
having passed through it himself.
There was but short notice of his
coming or the church would not have
held the people. AS it was, those who
did attend were more than repaid and
those who did not go missed treat
