Of Billions. d, - ~

Discharged soldiers bearing the
marks of the Great War that they re-
ceived in France will tell people of
the Ninth Federal Reserve district
why everyone should subscribe to the
Victory Liberty Loan that will be
staged in, April. -. -
In every county throughout the dis
trict the men who served their coun-
try so well are being listed and scores
have agreed willingly to speak at Lib
erty Loan rallies wherever their voices
may be needed to further the sale of
bonds.
Nothing will bring the war to the
people of the district like the living
evidences of modern warfare" said A.
R. Rogers, chairman of the Ninth Dis.
trict War Loan organization, in out
lining the plans for the speaking cam.
paign.
mo one like the returned soldier
can explain the need Of raising the
five billion dollars that our govern
ment is asking for. These men who
have seen the desolation of France;
who have tasted the poisonous gases
that the Germans used; who have
starved and fought and suffered that
democracy might not perish from the
earth-these men will spur the peo-
pie of the northwest to the realization
of the immediate necessity of finish
irg the job that the brave American
boys started
The empty sleeve, tho crutches, the
artificial eyes and limbs; the MANNED
bodies and the disigured faces that
were received in the cause of right
will be everywhere throughout the
Ninth District during the coming
drive.
The man who refuses to buy bonds
will have to give his reasons to the
men who fought the battles of this
country.

MAKE JOINT SWEAR-OFF
OF FOOLISH SPENDING
Some Pieces Of Good Advice as Pos
sibIe keynotes for Coming
Thrift Campaigns.

Here are some of the pieces of good
advice l.. B. Franklin, National Dr.
rector of the War Loan Organization,
has given to War Savings Stamp
workers as possible keynotes for thrift
campaigns:
We do not want to make a ma
ton of tightwads but we do want
to eliminate the darn fool waste.
Spend wisely and save your
money so that you can 60 into
business for yourself.
Spend less and pay of the mort
gage or send your boy to college.
Put a little Joy into saving.
A French housewife can feed
family on what an American
family wastes. .-.
when g. man 'swears Off smoking
or Ice cream or something like that
he is more apt to make good in his
resolution if he has fellow resolver,
someone else who is undergoing the
same denial with the same purpose in
mind" Mr.. Franklin said. 1T is a
joint 'swearoff.' This is the thing
we want the American people to do,
make joint swearotf of foolish spend
ing. And of course we want them to
invest the saving in War Savings
Stamps.
I'VE are going to get the Joint
swearoff' idea through the War Saw
ings societies. Each member of So
ciety will be q War Savings Stamp
buyer and each will want to hold up
his end, especially when he knows
that every other member is doing his
shares''
This mild compulsion by public
opinion as it exists in the society will
this year take the place Of the quota
and allotment system of selling War
Savings Stamps which was used last
year. The w. S. s.. buyer il to be
made to want to save az much as he
can, rather than to feel that he must
save such and such an amount: Mr..
Franklin said the quota system of
War Savings Stamp sales was not in
use this year. j.. L.. i 3:.i. -.
The national director made 1t clear
that the appeal is still to patriotism
~ well as to thrift and self interest
but with the patriotic appeal changed,
from that Of q battle crisis to that Of
the sturdier and less spectac ocular 10y
atty Of the man who II willing to- help

II William Hohenzoliern depended
on Americans Of German birth to DO

never have picked August Heckert Of
Marietta, MINI. ~, (. 49, ~~*==7s : IT,, :.
Although born in Germany. MI.
Heckert stands today. as the prize
practical patriot Of Lac Qui Parle
county with $4,000 to his credit In
Liberty Bonds, War Savings. Stamps
and Certificates of Indebtedness. In
addition to the cash Investments. he
has loaned his 24-year.old son to.
Uncle Sam and. the youth is serving
his country on the dreadnaught Kear-
sarge. Mr.. and Mrs. Heckert have also
tolled INCREASINGLY for the various war
activities in their home town and
county. - -,
Chairman J. H. Hayden Of Madison,
is authority for the statement that
the Heckerts are the largest holders
of government securities in Lac Qui
Parle county.
And Mr.. Heckert has not been silent
concerning the prosecution of the war.
He has won himself host of enemies
among old neighbors for the things
he has told them about their attitude
toward the land Of their adoption.
The elimination came recently
when Ferdinand Kahlbrenner, also of
Marietta, brought suit for $4,000
against the prize patriot of the
county. The suit followed signed
article in Marietta paper, in which
Mr.. Heckert aired his views regarding
the refusal of many of his townsmen
to buy Liberty Bonds and War Savings
Stamps. The jury did not deliberate
long over the evidence and returned a
verdict for Mr.. Heckert.
"The land of my adoption is the
only land that recognize" Mr.. Heck
ert said in telling his experiences to
A. R. Rogers, Chairman of the Ninth
District War Loan Organization. This
government has made it possible for
me to succeed in business and what
ever I have, the United States can
have whenever it desires it. The jury
that gave me the verdict apparently
thought that man who bought five
or six times as many Liberty Bonds as
his allotment called for, could not be
very disloyal."
"The case of Mr.. Heckert," said
Chairman Rogers, lis proof that the
majority of American citizens of Ger
man birth are loyal to their adopted
country"
Chairman Hayden OF Madison de-
clared that the story of Mr.. Heckert
should have the greatest circulation in
the coming Victory Loan campaign.
1.-THE story should bring shame to
many persons who have been evading
their full duty to their country" Mr..
Hayden said.

Chairman Rogers Rakes Those
Circulating Report Of No More ].
Liberty Loan Campaigns. y.
VICTORY LOAN IN APRIL Ri
Oounsry Will Be Put to Test In This
Last Loan Drive and Mr..
Rogers Says It Will Be
Met.

Certain persons who are anxious to
hinder the efforts of the United States
government in it's reconstruction work
came in for sound scoring this week
by A. R. Rogers, chairman Of the Ninth
District War Loan organization, in ex-
planning that there will be a Liberty
Loan campaign in April.
The report recently gained wide cir
culation that the next bond issue
would be absorbed by the banks with
out asking individuals to purchase the
government securities.
There will be one more Liberty
Loan" said A. r. Rogers. 1T will be
known as the Victory Liberty Loan
and it will come in April.
Somehow the report got abroad
that the government had no intention
Of inaugurating another drive. We do
not know where the report started
but we do know that it was freely
circulated by persons anxious to i'm
pede the work of the government.
America may we'll be proud of the
part she played in the historic strug-
gle. She gave lavishly of her best
blood and she poured out her money
in a golden flood. So nobly did the
nation respond to the call to arms
that the war came to an abrupt end
six months before the experts pre-
dicted it would. The early peace
saved the country hundreds of thou
sands of her sons and countless mil
lions Of her treasure.
"But the job is not finished. Gov
eminent officials calculate that about
five billion dollars will be needed to
finish it. The boys must be brought
home; they must be fed and clothed
until Rehabilitation is complete; the
sick and the wounded must be taken
care of as though the war was still
going on; and thousands OF disabled
men must be taught new ways to earn
a living.
with the tumult and the shouting
gone, this country will be put to the
test, We met the test during; the
stress of war and know we will meet
it again when the time comes. We are
a grateful nation and think the Fifth
Liberty Loan will prove it to the
world"

asked to form 100 clubs and this !
week, Mr.. Susens reported that
80 of them were boming prosper

planned.
The Ninth District now has 625
societies.
Interest in the societies was
never higher than this month, &C
cording to A. r. Rogers, chairman
Of the Ninth District War Loan
Organization, and he predicts a

"Thousands Of school children

their pennies and dimes and quar-
tiers in surprising style. The soci-
cites are doing wonders in incul-

Ants on Pecnles.

For number Of years many persons
in various parts of the country have
complained Of ants destroying the buds
on the peonies.
To rid peonies of these ants, cut a
circular piece OF heavy paper or heavy
cardboard, about two feet in diameter.
and put hole in the center just large
enough to allow the stem or main
stalks Of the paoay to pass through.
and then slit from the center TO one
edge, NJ enable you to place the cIrcu-
lar rim Of paper round the plant.
Smear molasses on the surface OF
the cardboard, and then scatter little
arsenic powder over the sticky mo
lasses.
The ants will eat OF the sweet as
they go or come, and II win not be
long until you have stopped the con.
slant stream of destructive ants from
visiting the peony buds.
In some localities similar trouble
has been experienced with ants on
dahlias, and the same remedy may be
successfully used.

AMERICANS AND FRENCH.

A, leavening Of France by Ameri-
can industrial genius. and leaven-
Ing Of the United States by French
art and culture--this is one of the
mutual compensations for two great
peoples that promise to come out OF
comradeship in the same war for a
common purpose. Marshal Petan,
distinguished French soldier, expects
his country to benefit permanently by
close-range view Of what American
physical energies can accomplish un.
der pressure. says Minneapolis Trlb-
unc. He expressed this hope after
having made tour of railway ter
minals, docks, warehouses and other
huge works reared by American mill
tary auxillaries In France for war pur-
poses. American builders almost lit
orally tossed railway lines through
parts of France They made great
storage plants to spring upllike mush-
rooms after a rain. They cast and
did things on scale to which the
French were not accustomed, and
they wrought with speed that was
amazing. They were less fettered by
red tape, apparently, than they would
have been in undertaking the same
kind of projects at home, but there
were other unavoidable handicaps
with which they would not have had
to contend at home.

The success of Capt. Alcock and
Lieut. Brown in crossing the Allan
tic in a biplane in a little over 16
hours without stopping is much
holder and more spectacular feat
than that Of the American seaplanes
which flew to England via the Azores
and lisbon. The Vickers-Vimy BIZ
Plane was not safeguarded by line
of destroyers, it started in a gale
and the fight was made in dense fogs
and cold. 1t is probably the most
thrilling exploit of man since Pcary's
discovery of the North pole. While
Alcock and Brown made the trip in a
biplanc it Is probable that when trans
atlantic flying becomes an estab-
lished institution the trip viii be by
craft which combine ability to fly
with power to sail il compelled to
take to the water.

That capital and labor should reach
and maintain a good understanding
and that wages should be equal to the
demands of a decent living standard
regardless of price iluctuations-such
are the principal conclusions OF an
employers commission reporting to
the United States department Of labor
on studies of conditions In Great Brit
ain. They are conclusions that might
possibly have been arrived at without
going so far away to make so labori-
GUS an inquiry. Collective bargaining
has gained an extraordinary degree Of
practical recognition In the British
Isles rs n result of the war. This Is
their chief present contribution to the
solution Of the labor problem.

The Daylight saving law is going
to be done away with unless the PEG.
pie in the towns and cities who like
it make their influence felt on con
gress. The bill to change the law
has already been agreed to by the
committee and will go through con.
gress unless there is prompt action
on the part of friends of the law. The
daylight saving law is very popular
in the towns and cities because it
gives a long daylight evening for
work or pleasure around home. It
provides an opportunity to care for a
garden, to automobile by daylight, for
evening walks, band concerts, etc.
The opposition to the law comes from
the farmers who are more conserya.
tive than people who dwell in towns.
Farmers and farmcrs' organizations
