the office pressman this morning.
She had small opportunity to "act''
but what she did was passing fair
even if she was called upon to take
the role of an excessive talker while
she did hold stage-center.
Lastly there was Miss Ruth Flint
as the pretty cashier and she could
have left of her rouge and gotten
away with the part just as well.

wood in the last act the two of them
would pass for the leads in movie
cast for one of the best-sellers in
Stiles bookstore and run for two
weeks in Broadway.
Of course the real pleasure of an
affair of this kind isn't in the plot of
the piece but in the specialties. And
there the pretty local girls and manly
male talent came out strongest. Miss
Flint had to break the ice at the
opening and then recollect the words
and music of an entirely different
song: "I'd Like to Furnish Flat for
YOU" with Mr.. Calderwood. But she
didn't stammer on a single note and
had to come back for an encore. For
that matter so did everybody but the
curtain-puller and the janitor. Mrs.
Cosgrove sang: Loves Wonderland"
with the ballet girls to help her-a
mighty difficult song to put across
successfully. But she did it. The
best song-hit of the evening was Bax-
ter in his fantasy: "The Switch for
Ipswich" and for getting his mouth
around that tongue-twister song he
deserves a blue ribbon. The chorus
was thrown on the screen afterward
for the audience to sing but the audi
ence knew better than to strangle it.

FOOD IS CURE
FOR BOLSHEVISH
First Aid Treatment Splendid Medl.
cine for Spirit of Unrest. How
Was Savings Stamps Help.

President Wilson has asked for food
to stop the wave of Bolshevism roll
ing westward ont Of Russia No intel.
ligent person doubts the value Of food
as first aid, but at bottom the secur-
ity Of our institutions rests upon the
working interest the people take in
those institutions.
Citizens having no interest in gov
ernment. no economic interest in the
success Of that government, are apt to
be the first victims Of vicious propa-
ganda or unbalanced political theo-
rists. On the other hand men and
women who have invested in their
government either by way Of conduct
ing private enterprise under it's pro-
lection or through direct purchase of
government securities have something
at stake and desire to maintain stable
institutions. Such persons are not
necessarily reactionists. They may
be quite progressive and anxious for
reform where reform is needed.
Consequently the effective barrier
to Bolshevism in America today is
thrift and investment. The philosophy
must reach into the workshops of the
nation. 1t is reaching into those work
shops and into the schoolhouses Of the
nation in the form OF the Thrift
Stamp and the War Savings Stamp.
When everybody in America is buy
ing Thrift and War Savings Stamps as
a habit one won't hear much about
Bolshevism in America. 1t is the
financial and patriotic duty Of every
American who loves real liberty to
get the Thrift Stamp habit NOW.

Eastern Business Men Issue Warning
Against Parting With Government

That it is a bad business proposi-
tion for any merchant to encourage
holders of War Savings Stamps to
exchange them for merchandise is the
opinion of group OF eastern business
men, who recently discussed this
question at their annual convention.
"Such action merely helps fake pro-
moters and dishonest brokers in their
effort to shake public confidence in
government bonds as an investment" "
said one OF the speakers. at Is Ia
mentable that they have worked to an
alarming degree among the poor and
among ignorant people Of this coun-
try"
The two hundred delegates attend
ing the gathering were so impressed
with the necessity for keeping War
Savings Stamps in the hands or the
original purchasers that each pledged
to go back nome and constitute him.

AS soon as he accumulates sixteen
Thrift Stamps he may exchange them
for a War Savings Stamp by paying
the few cents additional to make up
the purchase price of a War Savings
Stamp for that month.
Thus if the Thrift Stamp saver col.
lected his sixteen stamps in May, 1t
then cost him 16 cents additional to
convert them into one War Savings
Stamp. In June 1t costs II cents addi.
tional and so on. and then on January
1, 1924, less than five years after the
exchange. the War Savings Stamp will
be worth SIS and the government will
pay that amount for it.

The following table will be Of serv'
ice to the individual who plans to
save Systematically throughout the
year by means Of War Savings
Stamps. The stamps draw four per
cent interest compounded quarterly.
Each 1919 War Savings Stamp was
worth last January s4.12. Each stamp,
tecause Of the interest that Is COM
pounded, costs one cent more each
month. so that next January 1t will
cost s4.24 and at the end Of five years
it will bs worth IS.
Thrift Stamps are of the denomi-
nation OF 25 cents and are the means
by which one may accumulate small
savings until sufficient amount Is
saved to purchase War Savings
Stamp. They are invaluable for the
thrifty saver who can lay aside only
q small amount at time.

Washington, June 14.-Th1e
fourths of the American dead in
France will find their final resting
place in American soil. Answering
an inquiry to-day from Senator
Chamberlain as to the wishes of rel
atives, General March, chief of staff,
said it was estimated that replies
from relatives thus far received
showed not more than rs per cent
who expressed a preference that the
soldiers body remain permanently in
France.
With more than 100000 soldiers
dead of the Allied and enemy coun-
tries buried in French soil, General
March said that nation was desirous
of proceeding slowly with the task
of exhuming those that are to go to
their home lands No date, has yet
been set for beginning the return of

TO ENCOURAGE THRIFT
Schools Called Upon by Treasury
Department to Make Saving
Happy Habit.

Through the government savings di-
rectors of the twelve federal reserve
districts. the Savings Division of the.
United States Treasury Department
has called upon the normal schools,
colleges and universities of the coun-
try to aid in the government cam
paign to make thrift happy habit.
The American Council on Education,
representing institutions OF higher
learning throughout the country, has
joined with the Savings Division to
secure the cooperation Of the schools.
The plan evolved by the Savings Di-
vision and the Council on Education
contemplates the creation of thrift or
ganizations in each Of the normal
schools, colleges and universities, to
teach the basic principles OF intelli-
gent saving-wise buying, sane
spending. safe investment and avoid
ance Of waste, and to aid in featuring
the advantage Of Thrift Stamps and
War Savings Stamps as the ideal in
vestment for small savings. Through
the American Council on Education,
the presidents of the institutions OF
higher learning have been urged to
name institutional thrift representa-
tives, who will cooperate with the To-
cal savings organizations. This has
been done in most cases. The educa-
tional institutions are expected to
have a large influence in the move
ment to make the United States a
nation Of intelligent savers.

Still Are Missing

ON trace Of Grover Cleveland Smith,
erstwhile broker, and pretty 17-year-old
Dorothy Anderson, Smiths s%tenogra-
pher, had been found Tuesday, accord
inf to w, Percy Mcdonald, attorney
representing a number of Smiths cred
itors. Diamonds valued at approxi-
mately $500, said to be the property
of Smith, which were not listed among
his assets, have been discovered, as
have some bad checks given by Smith,
Mr.. Mcdonald said.
The mother of the girl, who has
known Smith only three weeks, has APP
pealed to the police In an effort to To-
cate her daughter. A marriage license
was issued Saturday night by John G.
McLemore, county court clerk, to Smith
and Miss Anderson, but so far no jus
tice of the peace or minister has been
found who performed the marriage GER
emony, and the pair have disappeared.
Owing to Smiths failure to appear
at the creditors hearing before Referee
Harry b. Anderson on Monday, federal
authorities have been asked to assist in
locating the man.
Last week Smith filed a voluntary pc
tition in bankruptcy in the United
States district court. w. Percy Me-
Donald, representing creditors, colled
for n special hearing last Saturday,
which was granted. At this hearing
Smiths demeanor on the stand led his
auditors to believe that he Is mentally
unbalanced. Facts developed at the
hearing showed that several thousand
dollars In assets had not been listed in
the bankruptcy petition.
