Owing to the advance in wages and

that there will be no reduction in the

however is that a material reduction

good deal more homemade bread

! Audubon people visiting in Allan
tic the past several weeks, return
home reporting the erection of the
soldiers monument in the park of
that city as very attractive sight,
drawing the attention of many visit
ors to Atlantic. The hosting and
placing of the heavy granite slabs by
the huge derrick is witnessed by
hundreds during the day. 1t will
be one of the many beautiful monu-
meHts to be erected in the great
state of Iowa in honor of our soldier
heroes. The monument will cost in
the neighborhood of $4,000 when
completed.
Many holders of Liberty bonds are
careless about cashing their interest
coupons. No doubt some do not col
lect the interest promptly in the be-
lief that they are helping the gov
eminent. This is a wrong impress
sion, however. Uncle Sam sets the
interest aside at each period and
neither the government nor the
banks derive any benfit therefrom.
Unpaid interest simply represents
that much money out of circulation,
and the person who is careless about
collecting it, binders business rather
than helping 1t. 1t is urged there
fore. that interest coupons be pre-
scented promptly. III you do not
need the money, the banks will ac-
accept it on deposit and thus IL will
aid in carrying on business.
A very strong argument against
back yards is the spirit of deception
which it is apt to foster in the young
members of the family, for il is 4
constant deceit to present a clean
and attractive front ward to the gaze
