RT. REV. PETER J. MULDOON, D. D,
Bishop Of Rockford, Chairman, Admin.
istrative Committee, National
Catholic War Council.

sponSible for the coordination, control
and efficiency of all the organized ac-
tivities for Uncle Sam Of all the Cath
olic workers in this land and overseas
from beginning to end of our part in
the world war. And all the time he
was planning to turn his welfare army
into fighting forces for true American
lZatiOn and real reconstruction at the
return of peace incidentally, it may
be added that he was also administer
ing, just as effectively as ever, the af-
fairs of his large diocese out at Rock
ford, III.
When he reports to the conference
Of the hierarchy of his church, that
has been called this month in Wash
ngton to consider the work, past and
future, of the National Catholic War
Council, Bishop Muldoon will relate
striking chapter in the history of
American war work and outline fu-
ture prospect of continuing to aid the
government through the trying times
ahead. This is what he has to say
about the work Of his organization:
1.-THE National Catholic War Council
represents the patriotic effort of
great church. We Catholics believe
with all the intensity of our nature
that nowhere in the wide world has
the church such freedom and opportu-
nifty as under the Stars and Stripes
and consequently we feel that we can
not do too much to express our graft
tude and patriotism. We felt it was
not enough that the sons and daugh-
ters should Individually serve and suf-
fer that our flag might be kept on high.
Our church wishes to 90 further and
to put into the field an organization
ready to give assistance at all times to
our government"

The Chieftain office
makes a speciality of print
ing sale bills, We give you
good service from start to
finish. We print whatever
. number of bills you want
and right when you want
them-yOu don't have to
wait.
Most people who hold a
farm sale nowadays are
overlooking the one big
bet-an ad in The Chief
tain. As matter of fact
this ad in The Chieftain
reaches many more posi-
BILE buyers than all the
bills you distribute. The
farmer and his family get
the paper at home where
they have time to sit down
and read your sale an
nOuncement over deliber-
ately, then during the next
few days they talk to the
neighbors about it. The
result is you get valuable
publicity for your sale.
You can't have a sale
without you have people
there to buy. And you
can't have people at your
sale if you don't let them
know about it. The news
paper ad is your one best
bet.
We are not telling you
this merely to get more ad-
vertising revenue but to
show you, who overlook
the ad in the newspaper,
that you are losing out.
Your auctione-r, if he is
onto his job, will tell you
that this is the right dope.
He knows that he can get
you more money and get
it in less time if there is Il
good attendance at your
sale. And he knows that
the newspaper ad will get
the buyers there.
In other countries where
they hold bang up good
sales, it is no uncommon
thing to see many half-page
and whole-page sale ads in
the local papers-and it
gets the buyers.
Remember you can't
have a profitable sale
Witout buyers-let the
people know you are 60
ing to have sale. The say
ing of a few dollars in ad-
vertising is unwise econ
omy. It's saving at the
spigOt and wasting at the
bung. Let The Chieftain
print your sale bills, then
put a good sized ad in the
paper.

 Republican Platform

Washington, Oct. 27-Senator Miles PoindeXter of Washington, in a state ment to the people of the United States, has announced his candidacy for the republican nomination for president, and presented a platform of policies and principles which he will advocate in his campaign.
 The Washington senator in his statement of policy, denounces threats of Ia Dor leaders to tie up the railroads as ''goVcrnment by terror, for d special class, and declares that the govern ment must be made supreme to both capital and labor, though insisting that the just claims of labor should be recognized
 Communism, Senator PoindeXter de clared, is inconsistent with the vested right of the labOrer to his wages Treating of international matters, the platform remarks that the "procesS of making supreme sacrifice of Amer ic;l and of joining our fortunes with should be Stopped.'
 In making his statement of Drinci- pleS, Senator OPndcXter, who is the first publicly announced candidate for the republican nomination. asserted that his announcement of policy makes it necessary for the republican l national convention in 1920 to stand by his platform, should he be chosen as l the party's standard bearer.
