SAVING STAMPS
Those for This Year Can Not be
Converted Into the Previous
Issue and Compete
With Bonds.

The new $500 and $1,000 war saw
ings stamps to be issued in few
weeks by the United States treasury
department will be a part Of the
1919 series and only. 1919 stamps can
be exchanged for them, according to
word from Washington transmitted
from state headquarters to City
Chairman J. P. Ingle today.
These new stamps are now on the
government printing presses, and
after the issue is completed the gov
eminent will issue certificate of
similar size probably, for which the
1918 war savings stamps may be ex-
changed.
The new denomination stamps are
designed to meet the popular demand
for short term government securities
of small size. They are really dis
counted notes signed by the govern
ment with the interest to date of
maturity deducted by the buyer
when the purchase is made. They
are calculated to make further bond
issues unnecessary, after the fifth
Liberty or Victory loan.
The new denominations of war saw
ings stamps will be in registered
form only.

Joseph Forbes who died recently
at Memphis, Mo-, at the age of eighty
Eve years, was from one of the first
families of Keoluk, leaving here in
IS49, by OK team for California. He
was born in Ohio in 1888 and came
to Keokuk with his parents when a
small boy, probably being a resident
here as early as the year 1910.
When he was in Keokuk, Main
street was a dense forest difficult for
the surveyors to penetrate with their
instruments The city has been plat
ted only three years before, and the
first hotel, which sold for $640 soon
after, was built only the year before
Mr.. Forbes arrived here. The first
church had just been completed, and
the big thing In Lee county was a
hot fight over the location Of the
county seat which West Point was
about to grab. 1t was seven years
after Mr.. Forbes came here that the
city of Keolkuk was incorporated

chickens, and the police barely wait

had lost some chickens last night.
They were good chickens, well
bred and fat, and in these days worth
a good many dollars. Police head

as possible and arranged to care for
them until their owner turns up.
After telephoning fifteen residents
along the road and near it, the police
had not found the owner OF the

The trio who carried them say
they got them off fence the other

credence is placed In what they say.
