HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS

Those persons who bought Liberty Bonds in previous campaigns should realize that in order to achieve the re- suit desired by the Government they should hold the bonds to the uttermost Every time bond is sold it takes that amount of buying power away from the approaching loan. It undoes the lessons of thrift that should be retain ed following the great world war, The bonds are backed by the entire wealth of the Nation, and are the best in vestment in the world.

At the cost of small jar of ordinary cold cream one can prepare full quar- ter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin softener and complexion beautifier, by squeezing the juice of two fresh lem ons into bottle containing three ounces of orchard white Care should be taken to strain the juice through fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this To- tion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blemishes as freckles, sallowness and tan and is the ideal skin softener, whitener and beautifer.
 Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any drug store and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant lemon lotion and massage it daily into the face, neck, arms and hands. It IS marvellous to smoother rough, red hands.

 15 German shells dropped in the town. The guard gave the alarm for gas
 and we put on our gas masks. It was o'clock in the morning. I slipped on my hobnails and tried to put my mask on but it would not fit. got my frog mask and slipped it on and ran into dugout About an hour later we
 went back to bed. We were on the Verdun front until April 5. We then
 went to our camp at Five Brothers. On May 12 we went to a camp for open warfare. We were supposed to have IS days training, but the Ger mans were driving to Paris, so we were quickly put on the road to stop them. At Chateau Thierry we were on
 forward march. We passed the poor
 French families for two days, moving ! out of the danger zone. It was sight to see them go by, some of them driv- ing one OK to a wagon, some driving
 milk COWS, some horses and some of them had dogs hitched to small carts.
 Little boys from to 10 years old were
 driving the horses. Some of the peo- pie were crying and saying, the Roche
 Poor Bon, meaning the Germans are
 no good.
 On June at o'clock we went into action, at 5:20 we were fixing bar
 rage to hold the Germans. A French officer said, retreat, and an American
 Colonel said, retreat, hell, we just got
 here. For days we could not get any thing to eat but just bread, coffee hard tack and monkey meat, the real name of the meat is Argenton Roast Beef
 It won it's famous name at Chateau Thierry. Believe me We won the hon. or of saving Paris. On July End the Second Division pulled off counter attack. We captured the village of
 VauX with about 400 prisoners. On the 7th of July we were relieved at o'clock. The 26th Division taking our place. We enjoyed rest of 6 days after which we received the order to go on hike. The hike was fine,

FOR U. S. TO OWN ROADS
Tells Trinity Forum It Is Essential
for Financial and Economic Wei
fare Of Country.

Claiming that the government own
ership Of the railroads was necessary
for the financial and economic well
fare OF the country at the Trinity
Civic Forum last night. Representa-
stated that the previous control of
the roads was not government own
ership. but merely wartime control.
Representative Sims also declared
that control by the government
would do away with indiscriminate
taxation of the states on railroad
property.
A plan for payment of the roads
was also proposed. in which a sink
ing fund established from earnings
would give the desired financial ne
cessities.

COACHING SCHOOLS TO END.
Summer Term Proves Great Sue
cess, Superintendent Saws.

Summer coaching schools of the
District of Columbia, which opened
Saturday, July 5, will close Saturday
of this week, Walter B. Patterson,
director, said today. In case a day
or the major part of a school day
has been lost by any class or school,
Mr.. Patterson said, the term will be
continued through Saturday or next
Monday.
Examinations for all summer school
students will be held Saturday, with
the exception of those students of
Hebrew religion, for whom examina-
tons will be held either Friday or
the following Monday.
Greater success has attended the
summer schools this year than ever
before" Mr.. Patterson said today.
I'VE have had larger enrollments in
all the schools, and. generally speak
ing, have had better success than In
previous years. OF course, we can
not know the number of pupils to be
passed on to the next higher grade
until after the examinations, but we
believe that the number will be rela-
lively high. The system of one full
class day of four hours. instead of
dividing the school day into two pc
RODS of two hours each, has attained
good results and is generally salts
factory to both teachers and pupils"
Closing of the summer schools the
end of this week will enable the
teachers and pupils to enjoy almost
a full month OF vacation.
