THE SPIRIT OF THE
VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN
BY S. w. STRAUS, PRECEDENT
AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THRIFT.

We are just entering the period of
another great government loan, the
fifth which the people of America
have been called upon to support.
These loans have been the most
splendid in thrift ever bestowed upon
us, and no matter how much personal
inconvenience and scrimping and saw
ing have been caused by them they
have been worth it all.
At the close of the fourth Liberty
Loan campaign last October it was
estimated that our war economics had
developed an army of 100000 new
savers. The Victory Liberty Loan
will increase this number by many
thousands.
1t has been the custom to count
the results of our loan campaigns
in the billions of dollars that have
been realized. But the net results
in the introduction of thrife HABITS
among our people is of far greater
value. 1t is recognized, of course,
that there are many who, under pa
triotic pressure, buy these securities
and. then shortly afterwards dispose
of them. However, in the greater
number of cases the bonds are held,
the savings thsu started are added
to, homes are purchased and other
prudent investments are made.
Moreover our wartime thrift has a
sacred aspect, that could have been
gained through no other form OF
economy. We have been saving our
money in a glorious cause. With our
dollars we have been building bull
walks to defend the very life of civil
ization. We bought Liberty Bonds for
the same purpose that our soldiers
fought at Chateau Thierry, Argonne
Forest and ST. Mihel, and with the
same spirit that drove our forces
smashing through the Hindenburg
line. Thrift is commendable under
any circumstances, but when prac-
ticed for a cause such as this, it is
raised to the heights of sublimity.
And this is the spirit with which
we enter this new campaign.
The days of fighting are over, but
the need of thrift is just as vital now
as it was at any time, and no new
circumstances has lessoned the neces-
sity OF supporting the Victory Liberty
Loan.
1t is a privilege that we are per
mitted to participate in this cause
which represents the greatest epoch
in history and the furtherest heights
of human progress.
Of no less significance is the fact
that this loan drive will be another
great lesson in constructive personal
economies. 1t is likely that this cam
Daign will be the last experience OF
this kind for the American people
The last time lessons in thrift will be
| givene them under such powerfully
impleling circumstances. 1t is a gold
en- opportunity for those who practice
thrift and believe in teaching it tC
others to devote themselves without
stint of time or energy to the WORK
of making the greatest possible sue
cess. They never will have another
similar chance to do so much con
.,tructive good in so short time ano
under such favorable circumstances.

BROWNSVILLE OFFERS
LANDING FOR PLANES

brownsville, April 2O.-That the
place offered by brownsville as a
landing for airplanes is most suit
able one in every respect, and large
enough for the use Of the largest
planes, is the verdict Of Lieutenant
John II. McRae, of Souther Field, who
has made an inspection of it, and
has reported on it fayorably.
There is comparatively little to be
done to the land chosen for the land
ing, except to have it smoothed over
and few trees taken up, as it IS very
level and in good condition. The land
to be used for this purpose is situat-
ed at the extreme corporate limits
of the town, north of the Albany
branch of the Atlantic Coast Line and
near enough in to be reached con-
veniently the the public.
