row.
Victory Bonds are safe sound, profitable.
But they are not taxation
Nothing in the law paving the way for this or
any preceding Liberty Loan gives any person, or
any group of persons, any committee, or any gov
eminent official, the right to assess" any other
person than himself The very spirit Of democ-
racy is violated when one person seeks to compel
fellow citizen to INVEST a. single penny or a
million dollars in the bonds of his government.
He SHOULD invest, for it is a GOOD invest
ment. But he should not be forced to invest, if he
cannot see that it is the thing for him to do. He
should not be brow-beaten, intimidated, threat
ened, for not word in the Liberty Loan egisla-
ton permits even suggestion of such thing. He
may be compelled to pay his taxes but the Victory
Loan is not taxation. 1t is Ought TO BE-
the voluntary lending of money.
We may-each of us-"assess" ourselves to
the amount of bonds we think we can afford to
buy, the Investment we believe can make. But
let US not assess" neighbours ability to invest
If that is necessary the logical and legal way is to
call it tax and not loan, to demand it from
him and not plead for it, to make it duty of citi
zenship not privilege. Them tax assessors and
collectors, will do the work. not the fine host OF
voluntary citizens who selling bonds in this
campaign.
Every Victory Loan salesman, we believe, will
remember that he, or she, is governmental bond
seller-NOT A TAX COLLECTOR!

IN THE DARK

There is a widely held idea that we
arrive at our convictions by piecing
them together, matching up bits that
fit, the way we solve picture puzzles.
But in reality, convictions are live
things. and they grow. Sometimes
they're plants we get from the gar
idener and iset out in a carefully Sc
lected spot, with an artificially en-
rlched soil about their roots; some
times they are weeds whose seeding
is mystery to us and whose rank
growth is our despair. That is how
la hateful conviction about her hus-
band began to grow in Celia's mind.
She could not have told, when first
she saw it sprouting up, exactly what
it was going to turn out to be. It

that she was completely in her hus-

The thing had planted itself and be-
gun to grow, although she didn't know

March.
This was evident from the fact that
the inventors hints had found some
thing in her that answered them-met
them halfway. If the thing had not
already seeded and sprOuted in her,
the notion would not have occurred to
her, even though labeled preposter-
Gus, that Alfred might have offered
Major March fifty dollars.

Woodfill told them to remain under cover while he
went ALONE to the Hun nest. When they saw
him coming alone THREE Hun privates rushed at
him. He shot and killed the three. Then the Hun
officer sprang upon him, giving him no time or

finish him.
