. The Fifth Liberty Loan, will be known as the victory loan.
 Victory is not merely mat ter.o of jubilation, accepting, sur render of a i beaten foe, and dropping the gun to take up the blow share in the furyow where it stood when the call to arms came.
 . The victory loan is one of the many great obligations that come to the victors. President Woodrow Wilson and the mem- bers of the Americ an peace del- segation are now in France look ing after the world obligations. Our part now is to prepare to pay in small measure the debt we owe our khaki and blue clad champions.

 have begun to doubt that the

 it is apparent that the bath of

 but their efforts are doomed to failure.
 As far as the Allied nations are concerned, they may stand
 by and watch the progress of events in. Germany with the comforting assurance. that in case things do not go to suit them in Germany, they have the military advantage which makes it possible for them to step in any time and mold af- fairs to their liking. If it should become necessary to march to Berlin, the task will be much easier than it would have been at the time the armistice wal signed. Germany now has lit tie of her fleet left, and has giv- en up the tremendously strong forts on, her border which would have cost thousands of Allied soldiers lives to take by force. So long as she lives up to the peace terms which the Allies will set, the Allies will have nothing to fear from Ger many for a century to come
 What will come out of Ger many, no. man knows, but first of all German blood must atone for. the awful crimes which she 1 has committed. If the German people themselves punish the l guilty military, Germany may be saved, but the bath of blood 1 cannot be escaped.

NO HARM DONE
Some periOdicalS oyeI

Some periodicals over the
 country are shouting loudly
 about their right to express
 their views upon the policies of the federal administration and upon every other subject, pro-
 ceeding at once to object to the
 Presidents peace aims; while others are insisting that any criticism of the President or of
 his policies will; be bound to de-
 tract from his prestige at the peace conference. As a matter of foct,. no one outside of, the Presidents immediate advisers knows just what his peace pro- gram is, and any criticism that may be made by antagonis+ic publications must, after all, be fired at random. They are not going to handicap the President to an extent that anybody can notice. Let them go on with their harmless mental gymnas- tics. Nsz e :.~Fs.
 The great mass of the Amer ican public looks to Wilson to procure a. just peace, and they will not be, disappointed. The President would not be party to any other sort of peace. and none but a just peace would be ratified by the senate. There are vast number of perplexing auestions to be settled in mak- ing such a peace, and the petty discussion of these Sby thexpfesS of the country could offer no consid aid in reaching a settlement. The settlement will be worked out by the three master minds of the day-Pres- ident, Wilson, Lloyd George and Clemenceau. The peace, terms which they formulate will be just tho firm, and will be readily accepted by. all the allied peoples.

THE WILLIAMS NEWS
A TRUE AMERICAN

It is remarkable that death should have come so quietly to the strenuous Colonel Roose- welt that it is doubtful if he knew of the grim reapers ap- proach. A calm nights slumber passed quietly into the eternal rest. One would expect rather ! to see the wonderful yigor and vitality of the. Colonel's consti- tuition keeping up the fight for life until the trench was reach ed. Instead, his demise stands out in strong constrast to his life. So a quiet passing is the last great blessing which we may receive on this earth. It is a fitting reward for a life of service. fs
 In the passing of Ex-presi- dent Roosevent, America loses a true American son. His en- emies hated as ardently as. his friends loved him, but all must unite in paying homage to&thi, strenuous, vigorous, tireless statesman. He won a place in history as one who loved his country most dearly and who accomplished much in her ser.v-i ice. ees1n ss4 AaL j"

MRS. A. NELDBERC
DIED AT WAUSAU
Death Came March 9TH at
St. Mary's Hospital. In
terment at the Pine
Grove Cemetery.

Mrs. Anton Ell. Neldberg, aged So
years, resident of Phelps for one
year, passed away at ST. Mary's Hos
pital, Wausau, Friday, March 7th.
Meningitis was the cause of death.
Sina Niken was born in Denmark,
March 10Th, 1861. Her early life was
spent in that country and at the age
of 81 years (lS82) she came to the
United States. Five years later she
was united in marriage to Anton
Fl. Neldberg at Rochester, Minnesota.
-Four children were born to this
union, three of whom, with the hus-
band, survive. They are: Mrs. Ger
trude Anderson, Phelps; Arthur HI.
Neldberg, Duluth, Mimi, and Clyde
H. Neldberg, Phelps. After II
years residence at March, Wis, the
Neldberg family came to Phelps to
live, and have formed wide &C
qllaintance which grieves at the
death of Mrs. Neldberg. Funeral SER
vices were held at the Peterson un-
dertaking parlors at Wausau by Rev.
S T.. Thompson, followed by inter-
ment in Pine Grove cemetery.
The death of Mrs. Neldberg
takes from the family kind
and loving mother, whose sacrifices
were willingly made for the benefit of
the home circle. Although a resident
of Phelps for only a year, she was
held in great esteem by all whose
pleasure it was to know her, and dur
ing that time the womanly traits of
Christian character evident in her
every day life made it apparent that
her days had not been wasted. The
loss Of one so near and dear as a
mother is most hard to bear and yet
to the bereaved family must come
the consoling thought that she went
home to her. Maker as the faithful
servant whose work had been well
done. All sympathy and coincidence
is offered the surviving relatives.

the breaking of the outside rail on a
curve under the engine. The ladies'

tunately no one was in the ladies'
coach WheE' it rolled over Peter La

THRIFT SCHOOL PLAN

Or. Smaller Mathews Explains
Scope and Purpose of Great
U. S. Educational Move
ment for Saving.
BY DR.. SMALLER MATHEWS.

BY DR.. SMALLER MATHEWS.
[chairman of w. S. S. Educational
Committee for Seventh District and
Vice Director for llIinois.l
Thrift will be taught in the schools
Of the states constituting the Seventh
federal reserve district.
The children of Iowa will help pre-
pare the Little Lessons in Thrift which
are being written by Prof. Macy Camp
bell of the Iowa State Teachers col
lege, under the general direction of an
educational committee of the district.
Besides the chairman the educational
committee consists of w. e. Larson,
department of public instruction. Wis
consin; ]. v. McNally, Detroit public
schools, Michigan, and Macy Campbell,
Iowa State Teachers college.
The Little Lessons in Thrift appear
fOrtnightly on printed sheets. The les
sons are prepared for the different
grades in the schools. They are Illus
trated and interesting. They teach
savings as phase of good citizenship,
give problems of arithmetic in terms of
thrift stamps, chewing gum, candy
and other things a child buys.
1t is a new field which is thus being
opened up and the war savings organ
ization is rendering a great service to
the rising generation. Nor is 1t all
mere theory. The teaching of the prin-
ciples of thrift is combined with sort
of manual training in thrift, through
the sale of War Savings Stamps In
schools.
Along with these Little Lessons in
Thrift the educational committee fur
nishes the schools with pupils thrift
cards, on which the teacher keeps an
account of the amount, however small,
which the pupil brings to her for the
purpose of buying stamps. This prac-
tice itself becomes educational, be-
cause the pupil gets introduced to
simple bookkeeping and banking.
These plans have received the hear
test cooperation Of the school admin
istration in the various states and
cities. The parochial and private
schools also are cooperating in the use
of the material and plans prepared by
the committee.
The young men and women Of the
next generation will have a higher re-
spect for thrift and better under
standing as to how to spend their
money, for they will learn even In the
primary grades that thrift Is not miser-
illness but way of spending money SO
as to make it for them.
