PATRIOTS DUTY
To Respond To Call For
Victory Loan.

The importance of moral and fl
nancial support for the Victory Lib
erty Loan, authorized by Congress
this week. is pointed out in the fol-
lowing signed statement by United
States Senator John W. Works of
Massachusetts:
AT this time when preparations
are being made for another govern
ment bond issue and when it is or
may be necessary to finance the Gov
eminent in other ways, the citizen
who has responded periodically dur
ing the continuance Of the war to
such appeals may very naturally ask
the question; why should | do any
thing more; the war is ended, and !
have done my patriotic duty?
1T seems to me that the answer to
this suggested question is very SIM
pie one. 1t is true the war has been
won. but in order to win the war it
was necessary to make preparations
as If the war were to continue for an
in definite time and provide for the
army Of FIVE million men we were
eventually to have in France. The
provision of the necessary equipment
for such an army represents an enor-
nous financial undertaking; and
while we have seen the end of the
fighting we have not seen the end %
the expenditure the war has incurred.
"As an example Of these unavod-
able expenditures, it is only neces-
sary to call attention to the fact that
there are still more than two and a
half million men in the service, and
it requires more than seventy-five
million dollars month for their
maintenance. There is bill pend
ing in Congress to validate CON
tracts for supplies furnished the
Government, the contracts for which
are not in such form chat they can be
legally paid There is something
; like a billion six hundred million dol
lars of such expenditures, all Of which
are due or will become due in the inn
mediate future.
Indeed, the expenditures in many
/ directions will aggregate several bill
lions of dollars requiring bond issue
in addition to the taxes being levied
/ for the coming year, The money
must be obtained from our own peo-
pie, and there should be the same
patriotic determination to respond to
the requirements Of the Government

 She was crying with all her might. Gradually she realized that Duane's hands were on her shoulders. He was squeezing them as if to keep her from sobbing herself to pieces. His face was close to hers, and he was mur- muring:

SEEM TO HAVE HIDING PLACE
Just Where Do Facts Go That One Knows, Temporarily Forgets and
 Afterward Remembers7

One of the odd things about what we call loss of memory Is that 1t Is catching How often when one person forgets name well known to him does his companion, to whom 1t Is equally well known. forget 1t. too. Why is that?
 The other day had an excellent example of this odd epidemic. II was necessary for the name of certain actor-not star, but versatile repertory actor of much distinction to be recalled fin order that Ii letter to him might quickly be dispatched l had forgotten his name, but l de- sufficient accuracy for every one (there were about six of us) to recog- nize him. Some of us could even say in what parts we had seen him and compare notes us to his excellence, and vet his name absolutely eluded one and all. Whyl We all knew 1t; i; why did we unanimously fall to know it then?
 We parted intent upon obtaining this necessary information. On meet ing again the next day each of us had 1t pat enough. and 1t had broken upon each. more or less suddenly, during the night.
 The great mystery to me is. where are the things one forgets. but suddenly Will remember again. while one Is forgetting them? Where are they lurking? This problem of their whereabouts. their capacity to hide
