WATCHING. THE CASUALTY LISTS

These are hard and anxious days for
thousands Of homes in this country.
Their boys may be in thick of the fight
ing. Every day they take up the news
paper with dread, fearing to see there
the beloved name. Or they tremble as
the telegraph messenger approaches I'll.
door lest he bear ill tidings.
1t is proof of the essential nobility Of
human nature that our people have risen
to it so well. Few are complaining. What
they suffer they keep to themselves.
They feel that if the boy can stand the
shock and the CHASTITY sights Of battle.
we at home can do our part of silent suf-
fering. So our people have grown
stronger as the war has gone on.
The American people have descended
into the Valley of the Shadow. Let them
remember the words of the Book: s'Thy
rod and thy staff shall comfort me-"
There is higher power above that sees
and knows all. He will succor and
strengthen in his good time. In the
words of the prophet Of old:
0 Lord, how long shall / cry,
And thou will not hear?
Even cry out OF violence,
Andthou will not hear?
For destruction and violence are before
me
And there is strife and contention ris-
eth up.
Therefore the law is Stacked,
And justice goeth not forth to victory;
For the wicked doth compass about the
righteous;
Therefore justice is perverted.
And the Lord answered me and said:
For the vision is for the appointed time
And it hasteth toward the end and shall
not lie.
Because it will surely come, it will not
fail.
For the Lord is slow to anger and Of
great power,
And will by no means acquit the guilty.
He will make an utter end of wickedness,
For the earth shall be filled
With the knowledge of the Lord, h
AS the waters cover the sea.

HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS

To successfully finance the war 1t
Is necessary that owners OF Liberty
bonds hold their bonds II possible.
Where for any good reason 1t is nee
essary for them to turn their bonds
into cash they should seek the ad-
vice of their bankers.
Liberty loan bonds areVery desir-
able investments, and crafty indivi-
duals are using various means to Sc
cure them from owners not familiar
with stock values and like matter.
One method Is to offer to exchange
for Liberty bonds stocks or bonds
of doubtful organizations represent
ed as returning much higher In
come than the bonds.
There are various other methods
used and likely to be used. some of
the gold brick variety and others
less crude and probably within the
limits Of the law. All offers for
Liberty bonds except for money and
at market value should be scrutin-
lied carefully. The bonds are the
safest of Investments and have nom
taxable and other valuable features.
To hold your Liberty loan bonds,
II possible, is patriotic To consult
your bankers before selling them Is
wise.

erty Near Il. Line ~ in James
town.

Railway company was heard. The
case was brought, for the purpose OF

jacent to property Of plaintiff in the

tion in the house was also mentioned.

reduced in value from $1,000 to $2,-
600.

tion of testimony BY the plaintiff, up
on the ground that no part of plain
tiff's party had been actually taken
and that damage to his property was
common to all property in that vicin-
ity and that no damage could be had
for such injuries.

that the constitutionsand statutes pro-
vide that the plaintiff and all others
so situated might recover damages
to such an extent o. their property
was deprecated by reason Of the
building and operation of the road.

tanned, and the jury was instructed
to bring in directed verdict for the
railway company.
