WISE AND OTHERWISE

Alexander the Great gave up the
ghost and at thirty-two Jefferson
wrote the declaration of independ-
ence. At thirty-one Webster was
holding his own with Clay and Cal
houn. For a fact the great bulk of
the worlds best work has been done
by young men whose life's shadows
weer still falling towards the west
Indeed youth stands for progress and
age for petrifaction.
On good authority, it is said that
within the past few months more thar
S4OO, 100000 worth of liberty bonds
have been exchanged for worthless
stock. If that is a sample of the
business integrity of men excuse us

There is some talk but not much
yet of city politics. 1t seems to be
about settled that Mr.. B. Goldman,
who represents the fourth, will be
elected Mr.. Goldman has made a
good alderman and if he will take
another term at the job the citizens
should be glad to give him chance.

A letter from Marseilles announces
that Mr.. S. A. Moses was on his way
on the 7th, and there is little doubt
that he has now reached his old home
in Syria. He seems to have met a

abnormal conditions caused by the
war, but determinedly pushed his

HAVE Sentimental VALUE
Gifts Of War Savings Stamps Should
Be Kept.

Every person who makes a gift Of
War Savings Stamps to either child
or a grown person should accompany
that gift by one or two things, accord
ing to Charles Kerr. Minneapolis as.
sistant postmaster He should accom-.
pany the gift either by lecture on
the value of thrift and the wisdom OF
keeping the stamps or by q pledge
from the recipient that the stamps
will not be cashed.
There is tendency" Mr.. Kerr
said. FOR persons who receive stamps
az q gift to think Of them as so much
velvet something to be turned into
money and spent at once. Every
stamp giver ought to do something
TO Offset this tendency. The value Of
money in the form Of War Savings
Stamps Is just exactly as great as II
the possessor got them without effort,
as a gift. as II he had worked to earn
the money and buy the stamps. Also,
the stamps represent the toll Of the
one who gave them and for that reason
have sentimental value that must
be taken into account. If friend
is willing 10 work a full day. say, to
earn the money for u gift to you, the
Gift should be kept"

GERMAN BORN PATRIOT
Marietta Man LARGEST Holder OF
U. S. Securities in His County.
Declares Country Can Have Whatever
Ie Has " 9never 4 1e-
sires 1t.

If william Hohenzollern depended
on Americans OF German birth TO 90
his work in this country he wouIu
never have picked August Heckert OF
Marietta, MINI.
Although born in Germany, Mr.
Heckert stan4s today as the prlze
practical patriot of Lac Qui Pafle
county with GEO to his credit IN
Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps
and Certificates OF Indebtedness. IN
addition to the cash investments, ne
has loaned his 24,yearold son to
Uncle Sam and the youth is serving
his country on the dreadnaught kear-
sarge. Mr.. and Mrs Heckert have also
toiled INCREASINGLY for the various war
activities in their home town ana
county
Chairman J. H. Hayden of Madison
is authority for the statement that
the Heckerts are the largest holders
of government securities in Lac Qul
Parle county.
And Mr.. Heckert has not been silent
concerning the prosecution OF the war.
He has won himself host of enemies
among old neighbors for the things
he has told them about their attitude
toward the land of their adoption.
The elimination came recently
when Ferdinand Kahlbrenner, also OF
Marietta, brought suit for $4,000
against the prize patriot OF the
county. The suit followed signed
article in Marietta paper, in which
the refusal of many of his townsmeR
to buy Liberty Bonds and War Savings
Stamps. The jury did not deliberate
long over the evidence and returned a
verdict for Mr.. Heckert.
THE land Of my adoption is the
ert said in telling his experiences to
A. r. Rogers, Chairman of the Ninth
District War Loan Organization. This
government has made II possible for
me to succeed in business and what
ever l have, the United States can
have whenever it desires it. The jury
that gave me the verdict apparently
thought that a man who bought five
or six times as many Liberty Bonds as
his allotment called for, could not be
very dislOyal."
THE case of Mr. Heckert." said
Chairman Rogers, sis proof that the
majority Of American citizens of Ger
man birth are loyal to their adopted
country"
Chairman Hayden of Madison de-
clared that the story Of Mr.. Heckert
should have the greatest circulation in
the coming Victory Loan campaign.
"The story should bring shame to
many persons who have been evading
their full duty to their country" Mr..
Hayden said.

Chairman Rogers Rakes Those
Circulating Report of No More
Liberty Loan Campaigns.
VICTORY LOAN IN APRIL
Country Will Be Put to Test In This
Last Loan Drive and Mr..
Rogers Says II VIII Re
Met

certain persons who are anxlols to
hinder the efforts Of the United States
government in it's reconstruction work
came In for sound scoring this week
by A. X. Rogers, chairman of the Ninth
District War Loan organization, in ex-
planning that there will be Liberty
Loan campaign in April.
The report recently gained wide cir
cuiation that the next bond issue
would be absorbed by the banks with.
out asking individuals to purchase the
government securities.
There will be one more Liberty
Loan" said A. r. Rogers. 1T will be-
known as the Victory Liberty Loan
and 1t will come in April.
Somehow the report got abroad
that the government had no intention
OF inaugurating another drive. We do
not know where the report started
but we do know that 1t was freely
circulated by persons anxious to i'm
pede the work of the government.
America may well be proud of the
part she played in the historic strug-
gle. She gave lavishly OF her best
blood and she poured out her money
In golden flood. So nobly did the
nation respond to the call to arms
that the war came to an abrupt end
six months before the experts pre-
dicted it would. The early peace
saved the country hundreds of thou
sands Of her sons and countless mil
lions Of her treasure.
But the job is not finished. Gov
eminent officials calculate that about
five billion dollars will be needed to
finish 1t. The boys must be brought
home they must be fed and clothed
until rehabilitation Is complete; the
sick and the wounded must be taken
care OF as though the war was still
going on; and thousands Of disabled
men must be taught new ways to earn
a living.
with the tumult and the shouting
gone. this country will be put to the
test. We met the test during the
stress of war and know we will meet
1t again when the time comes. We are
a grateful nation and think the Fifth
Liberty Loan will prove 1t to the
world"

Can Tell Why All Should Sub
scribe to Victory Loan.
Bearing Marks of Great War They
Can Explain Need OF Raising
Of Billions.

Discharged soldiers bearing the
marks OF the Great War that they re-
ceived in France will tell people of
the Ninth Federal Reserve district
why everyone should subscribe to the
Victory Liberty Loan that will be
staged III April.
In every county throughout the dis
triet the men who served their coun-
try so well are being listed and scores
have agreed willingly to speak at Lab
erty Loan rallies wherever their voices
may be needed to further the safe OF
bonds.
Nothing will bring the war to the
people OF the district like the living
evidences Of modern warfare" said A.
Il. Rogers, chairman of the Ninth Dis
trict War Loan organization, in out
lining the plans for the speaking cam.
paign.
mo one like the returned soldier
can explain the need of raising the
tive billion dollars that our govern
ment is asking for. These men who
have seen the desolation of France;
who have tasted the poisonous gases
that the Germans used; who have
starved and fought and suffered that
democracy might not perish from the
earth--these men will spur the PEG
pie of the northwest to the realization
of the immediate necessity Of finish
ing the job that the brave American
boys started"
The empty sleeve, the crutches, the
artificial eyes and limbs, the manned
bodies and the disfigured faces that
were received in the cause of right
will be everywhere throughout the
Ninth District during the coming
drive.
The man who refuses to buy bonds
will have to give his reasons to the
men who fought the battles Of this
country.
