they were unable to light fire be-

To think was to act with the SER

dugout and started fire. About 10
other fellows gathered around. The
coffee was steaming fine, was almost
ready to serve, in fact, when the
Fritzies got line on the place and
started to drop shells around it.
It was a pretty lively place for a
while.

NOT A RICH MANS
WAR AND A POOR
MAN IS FIGHT At ALL
THOSE WHO ARE GAINING MOST
ARE THE PEOPLE OF SMALL
MEANS.
IN FINANCIAL AFFAIRS
Which Do Not Hit the other
Glasses.

Buyers of Government securities
and experts who have studied the eff.
feet of the war on the financial situa-
ton in the United States are pointing
out that poor people in the United
States are gaining most from the ef-
fects Of the war.
The rich manufacturer is watching
his profits go in the shape Of war
taxes and war profits. Congress has
seen to that. The people with the
smaller incomes are losing proportion
ately less through taxation. Further
more, the money they have invested
and will invest in government securi-
ties and Liberty bonds will make Hem
collectively, the heaviest creditors in
the future.
II 1t were the other way round. II
the rich were financing this war by
the buying of bonds and the people
with the smaller incomes were doing
their war financing in the shape of
taxes, the reverse would be true. II
that were the situation, then the poor
of the next generation would be taxed
to pay the interest and the principal
Of the loans that we're held by the
rich. This Is what happened after
the Civil War. AS it is now the poor
man with few Liberty Bonds Is in
far different circumstances to what
that same poor man would have been
after the Civil War.
Emphatically, this last war was not
"a rich mans war and poor mans
fight" 1t was everybody's fight as we
all know who watched the workings
of the draft law, but 1t will be the
poor mans profit il the poor man will
just have sense enough to hang on to
his Liberty Bonds and get more OF
them at every opportunity.
That is why the poor man who Is
wise in his day and generation will buy
as many Fifth Liberty Loan notes
(short-term bonds) as he possibly
can and hang on to them. He will
buy as an investment, knowing that
the rich man who sought profit from
the war is seeing those profits go in
the shape Of heavy war profits taxa
ton, and that the rich mans money
in this taxation is being used to pay
the interest on the bonds held by the
poor man.

FOUND
$4,000

BY arranging to get Business Train
ing this summer, instead of waiting
until fall, many young men and wo-
men will be at least $4,000 ahead.
They will get more than this amount
in salaries, before those who postpone
the matter will be ready. Graduates
of the Ozark Business College, of
Pennington, Mo-, are always in great
demand and are being given prefer
ence over those of other institutions
because they are individually trained
by experienced instructors. You can
find" more than 100000 if you will
take the matter up at once, and you
will be ready for a good position
right at the time when the best po-
sitions are open.
