Will People Desert Flag in Victory
Hour?
BY Carter Glass.
(Secretary of the Treasury. }

(Secretary of the Treasury
The Victory loan campaign is two
thirds over, but subscriptions have
been reported for little more than
one-third Of the loan.
Is it conceivable that the Ameri-
can people, who with heart and soul
waged the fight of freedom, will per-
NIT this loan of victory and thanks
giving to fail?
Our sons gave of their health, Of
their strength, and of their lives that
freedom might not perish. There are
one and half million American boys
in France and Germany. Now that
the war is ended it would be as
reasonable for them to dishonor the
nation by deserving the flag as for
the nation to dishonor itself by de-
sorting them. Is it a large thing that
we are now asked to lend our money
to pay the cost of victory? Is Ameri-
can money less willing than Ameri-
can manhood?
Let every one of the millions who
have bought Liberty bonds buy Vic
tory notes and success is sure.

Death of Mrs. Peter Jensen.


On Monday morning at three o.
clock Mrs. Peter Jensen was called
to her eternal reward, passing away
at her home in this city, her death
being due to stroke of paralysis,
the third she had suffered.
Josephine Nelson was born in
Norway, Jan. IS, 1855, and came to
this country with her parents in
1870, locating at McGregor.
They came to DEBORAH in 1873, and
on August II, 1875, the deceased
was united in marriage to Peter
Jensen, and the family home had
been here ever since. The deceased
had been one of Decorah's most be-
loved women, a woman who bore the
respect and esteem of many friends
and all are grie7ed to hear of her
death. The bereaved husband has
the sympathy of all in his loss. The
deceased is survived by the bereaved
husband, a half sister, Miss Jennie
Nelson, of Red Wing, Mimi. and
step sister, Mrs John Kildahl, of
Eau Claire, Wis. The funeral services
will be held today Wednesday at
two o'clock from the home and 2:30
from the United Norwegian church.
Rev. Glesne will officiate and inter-
ment will be in the Norwegian
cemetery.

Alice. Where Art Thou?

A group of housewives were having
tea together at a restaurant and talk
ing over the events of the day. The
question under discussion was who
had done most to win the war. Some
said Pershing, others Beatty, others
Foeh.

ERNEST r. MOORE FOR COVER
NOR.

The papers of Sunday morning
carried the information that Lieu
tenant-Governor E. r. Moore would
undoubtedly, before the close of the
present session of the legislature, an
nounce his intention to become
candidate for governor on the Re-
publican ticket, next year. This will
not come in the nature of surprise
to the many friends of Mr.. Moore
or those who are at all conversant
with the political situation of the
state. Mr.. Moore, it can be said at
the outset, should he be elected
governor, would conduct state affairs
as he has conducted his own BUSH,
ness and that is strictly on business
principles, which accounts in a large
measure to his success. He also took
the craftsmanship of the water works
in Cedar Rapids, an institution that
had not shown any signs Of being
able to pay its way in the world, and
put 1t on paying basis and he did
this without noise or blare of
trumpets. There will be other candi-
dates, undoubtedly, but from a sur
vey of the field at the present line up
and from a purely efficiency stand
ard, Mr.. Moore looks to be far and
away the strongest Of the lot.-Cen-
ter Point Independent, April 10, 1919

Snake Story.

A. species of viper wiper macropa)
from Bosnia, about Is inches in length,
seems to feed exclusively on grasshop-
pers. An interesting point about this
little snake is that, although poison
Gus, 1t may be handled with impunity.
If leased, it may hiss and snap, but
never bites unless seriously hurt.
