THE three weeks campaign to
float the $4,500,000,000 Victory
Loan bond issue came to an end
last Saturday, and not only was
the full amount subscribed, but
surplus of over a billion dollars
was secured.
The exact figures for the
amount OF bonds sold in Rich
mond county is not yet available,
but the total will likely be around
the $262,95O asked.
In the first Liberty loan cam.
paign the number of subscribers
was 100000. In the second
9,4O0,000 bought bonds; in the
third, 100000; in the fourth
21,OO0,000, and now in this fifth
and last, campaign the numbel
of Americans who bought Vic
tory Liberty notes aggregate
100000.
This Victory loan turned GU
to be a complete victory, an'
then some.

JOB WORK A SPECIALITY

THROUGHOUT the country our
soldiers are making their way to
their home GOWNS. And COM
plants are made that in many
places they are received with lit
tie enthusiasm.
We do not believe that the
lack of enthusiasm comes from
any lack of feeling. Americans
are not given to expressing their
emotions. The American youth
is trained to repression and self
control, and the result of this
training remains with the adult
But when soldiers come home
is the time, if ever, to give ex
preston to our feelings. These
young men have risked every
thing in the service of their coun
try. They have endured dis
comfort and suffering and peri
for our protection. They come
with stripes of honorable service
and honorable discharge upor
their sleeves.
Let us greet them with tn
heartiest of welcomes. Th'
small town cannot give its return
ing heroes triumphal arches ant
wonderful music and great parad
es. The more need that w
should show them the depth o
our feeling, our enduring prid
in them, and our joy in their re
turn. Let the time of their home
coming be a time that they Wi
always remember with satisfact
ion and happiness.

THERE seems to be some diff

the barkeeper says there will be
no more to be had after July LIST,
but the baker says they are
much in demand and will con
tinue to be so.

How Old Is Chess7

Just exactly how old chess really Is
nobody knows. Some authorities credit
PnlamcdcS with the invention of 1t.
and Pharmacies was II Grecian hero OF
the Trojan war, meaning that the
game dates back MS far as 1850 II. O.
But even more astounding Is the fact
that game essentially the same as
modern chess WAS played in Hindustan
nearly 5000 years ago. Thence it
spread to Persia. after that to Arabia
and finally came into Spain In the
eighth century. After that, of course,
1t attained to popularity In nearly all
western Europe. 1t is the most intel
lectual of all games Of skill and Spon-
sored by the intellectuals OF all coun-
tries. Indeed our own DR.. Benjamin
Franklin was nm enthusiastic player OF
chess.

time of its entrance into the Union.
Two centuries ago tract of southern
Vermont was granted TO Connecticut.
IN 1853 New York claimed the ter-

ordered the sheriff to return the names
of those who had settled in Vermont
under titles from New Hampshire,
which had also made grants in the
territory. A dispute arose between
tic latter colony and New York. the
claims of which were later sustained
by the king. The Green Mountain
Boys" under I'tlian Allen. were or
gHnlzcd to oppose the workers" and
later played prominent part in the
Revolution. After the establishment
of the Republic New Iork's claims

Sea Llons Not Harmful.

Some time ago the conclusion was
reached In Canada that the sea lions
were inimical TO the salmon fisheries
and n bounty was placed upon the sea
lion. Since then 1t has been discoy-
cred that the sea lions destructiveness
was so slight that Its general slaugh-
ter was not warranted and that they
offer possibilities of commercial ex-
ploitation in the matter Of guano,
leather and oil and really are worthy
Of protection. They are very tlmld
and easily frightened away from the

the rain, and glass measure Of much
smaller diameter to measure It. To
