He has no fads. He\ says that he

IOWA HAS SUBSCRIBED

In the Last Two Campaigns 900 900
and GA 900 People Subscribed
We viii Go Over the Top
Again

The quota for Winneshiek county
in the Victory Liberty Bond drive
which opens Monday, April 21st and
concludes Saturday night, May 10,
will be SS94,975.OO. according to an
account just received from John A.
Cavanagh Of Des Moines, Chairman
of the Quota Committee for Iowa.
Mr.. Cayanagh adds some interest
ing facts in regard to previous loans.
The quota of Iowa for the four
preceding Liberty Bond fssuances
was $338,500,00O. The state sub
scribed 93,093,150. The total num-
ber of subscribers was 1,642, 900.
The oversubscriptions in the four
previous loans amounted to $54,-
593,150, a greater sum than was
asked altogether of, the state in the
first campaign. In the last two cam
paigns $4,000 and $4,000 people
subscribed. The average for the four
campaigns was 410.500 subscribers
or one for every family. Iowa is
thus 100 per cent perfect in the mat
ter of family subscriptions in all
four bond campaigns. Iowa over
subscribed the second and fourth
loans ten per cent. 1t oversubscrib-
ed the third loan sixty per cent. Mr..
Cavanagh is hopeful that Iowa will
surpass the oversubscription record
of the second and fourth loans in
the coming drive.
. With Iowa producing farm crops
last year to the value of almost one
billion dollars and with prospects
good for another big g~agricultural
year, Mr.. Cavanagh is contiden<>that
the governments fifth and last APP
peal for funds will meet with
hearty and generous response from
Iowa, First over the top" in two
bond campaigns already.

Nevada, Ia.-A municipal cleo
trio plant has been in operation up at
Story City for the past ten years and
the city now faces the necessity of
replacing a worn-Out plant which has
been operating without regard to Gre
ating any depreciation or replace
mentt fund.
On May ) special election is to
be held for the purpose of voting
bonds of $4,000 for the purpose of
erecting new plant in the city. A
special Investigation of the plant
some weeks ago disclosed the fact
that the old plant is so far run down
that 1t is physically unfit for the job
of supplying current for the city and
needs to be replaced by new and
more modern plant. The same in
vestigation showed that the Story
City people have been supplying cur
rent to Roland consumers at a loss.
The Story City plant, which had
been operated there by a private
company, was purchased by the city
ten years ago at a cost of $4,000
There are now bonds of SIS, 900 out
standing against the plant and it is
practically worn out, with the ex-
ception of the distribution lines and
a certain amount of salvage which
can be utilized when the new plant
is installed. -r..
Il While the city of Roland has been
purchasing current of Story City at
a minimum rate, as we'll as number
Of rural line users, the people of
Story City have been paying good
stiff price for their current, accord
ing to the statement of parties who
are interested in the matter
Story City householders are practi-
cally all paying a fiat rate of Is cents
and have been doing so for some
time. There is another rate in force
there among some of the consumers,
which is rather indefinite. Under
that rate minimum of so cents is
charged for each connection and 6
cents per k. W. charged for the cur
rent used.
The city council after going over
the matter carefully and consider
ing the report of the experts who
examined the plant, decided to build
a new plant providing bonds of $50
600 can be voted for that purpose.
1t was also decided that the people
of Roland should no longer profit at
the expense Of Story City and the
council there has been asked for the
right to advance their rates. This
the Roland council has refused. The
Story City contract with Roland
runs for some time yet but con-
ditional upon annual adjustments.

He is the Chap Who Meets You at
the Door With Handshake,
and Whose Employees Live

HE is YOUR MERCHANT.
NEIGHBOR AND FRIEND
He is the Chap Who Visits You When
Sick, Sends Flowers to Your
Family When You De and

Under the above caption an eX-
change prints an editorial that should
find an echo in the heart of every
community booster. Too many peo-
pie say in their action, "Oh damn the
home merchant, he can take care of
himself. I'll buy where I please" !"
The maintenance of such attitude by
the people of any community works
to- the detriment of every man, wo-
man and child in such community,
for the prosperity of any particular
community depends not upon the
prosperity Of one individual or one
class of individuals but upon the
prosperity of all the people.
"The home merchant. Who is he?"
He is the chap who gives you
credit when you are financially broke
and carries your account until you
are able to pay.
He is the chap who gives you
back your money or makes exchang-
es when you are not satisfied with
what you have bought
He is the chap who meets you at
the door with a handshake, and lets
you out with message to the kids"
and a real come again" goodbye.
He is the chap whose clerks and
bookkeepers and other employees
live in Decorah and spend their
money with you and with other
Decorah people" .v.
HE is the chap who helps support
Decorah churches and charitable
organizations and talks for Decorah
and boosts for it every day in the
year" .'', .--... .. s
He is the chap who visits you
when you are sick, sends flowers to
your family when you die, and fol-
lows your body out among the trees
and tombs, as far as the human feet
may travel with the dead"
He is the home merchant-your
neighbor-your friend-your helper
in the time Of need?"
Don't you know that every dol
lar you send out of Decorah for
merchandise, is sent to strangers
TO men who never spend a dollar
here; to men who would not trust
you for a box of matches; to men
who would turn you over TO the pol
ice if you should enter their ofices?"
you don't save much, frequently
nothing, when you send your money
out of town and take all the risk
yourself of short weight or measure
and of getting damaged or inferior
goods. And don't you know that the
growth and prosperity of Decorah
depends very largely upon the sue
cess and prosperity of the home mer-
chant? Out-of-town people Judge our
city by the appearance of our stores
and the degree of enterprise shown
by our merchants. And our home
merchants cannot succeed unless
home folks give them loyal support. &"
