Lyman L. Pierce, of San Francisco,
and Charles Sumner Ward, of New
York, who are directing the 100000
campaign of the Wisconsin Colleges
Associated, are the men who made
many of the original experiments in
the modern campaign methods. They
originated and made the first demon
stration of the campaign method by
states Which was used in all the big
war drives.
Mr. Pierce was responsible for the
territory west of the Mississippi River
in practically every one of the great
nationwide patriotic campaigns dur
ing the war
Mr.. Pierce came to Wisconsin from
San Francisco to help the Wisconsin
colleges because as he says the enter
prise and daring of the Wisconsin in
situations challenged him.
For the first time in the history OF
American education the colleges Of a
state regardless of whether nonde-
nominational or UNCONVENTIONAL, Cath
Ole or Protestant, have become asso-
ciated to work out their common prob
lems," said Mr.. Pierce. Wisconsin,
points the way for American educa-
ton. Wisconsin is really making a
momentous contribution to our coun-
try"
The money to be raised by these col
leges will be used in increasing teach
ers' salaries, enlarging faculties, con
structing new buildings, adding new
equipment and enlarging endowments.

Cable the Peace Conference

Americas prestige is at stake in
the coming Victory Liberty Loan The
eyes of the world are fixed upon US
The nations of the world are going TO
rate us on this last effort II is right
that they should Judge us, not by
what We do in the heat of the strug
gle. but by our condition after the
fight.
One of the best guarantees of world
peace for years to come would be the
successful flotation of the Victory Lib
erty Loan for five or six billion dol
lars Even a combination of powers
inclined to start another war would
hesitate in the face of such display
of tremendous national strength
Every man who buys Victory Lib
erty Bond next April moreover, will
be adding to the determination with
which America speaks at the Peace
Conference. There are undoubtedly
going to be many moments during that
Conference when every whit of the
power of the United States will be
needed to shape into actualities those
ideals for which We entered the world
struggle
Let the cables carry into the Quai
dOrsay this message:
America has oversubseribed her
Fifth Liberty Loan by more than a
billion dollars

THINK STRAIGHT

This is d time for straight thinking
Make sure the other fellow is not talk
ing driyel. Analyze his thought, don
follow 1t. He may be suffering Will
phraseologic hemorrhage. 1t is epi
demic nowadays like Influenza anC
much more serious.
For instance in regard to the Vie
tory Liberty Loan and these fellows
who thumb their vests, froWn wisely
and say Let the banks do it, They
are bursting with money" They are
talking drivel It sounds fine but il
isn't good sense. Nor is it goot
economies, which amounts to the same
thing.
If the government thought it was
wise to let the banks do it, the gov
ernment would let them do It. There
would be no Victory Liberty Loan il
the popular sense But the govern
ment knows better than to let tht
banks do it.
This Is the period Of reconstruction
right now 1t is period of many
possibilities economically One posi-
bility is industrial depression On,
preventative of industrial depression
is plenty of money at favorable rates
Of interest to stimulate private enter
prise That means our banks mus
not be clogged with government Sc
Curities. 1t means that We cant af
ford to let the banks do it, The
people must do lido it from thei
earnings, present and future
Think straight
