LAST BIC LOAN nv
FIVE-YEAR NOTES
Secretary Glass Calls for Widest Distri-
button by Intensive Campaign in
Victory Liberty Drive from
April 81 to May 10.

The Liberty loan organization of New
England, following the instructions of
Carter Glass, secretary of the treasury
is completing arrangements and
strengthening lines in every city and
town in the six states for the Victory
loan which opens Monday, April q and
ends May 10.
Secretary Glass announces that this
will be the last loan campaign under
taken by the government and that the
same kind of intensive campaign for
the widest possible distribution is the
aim and need of the government.
The secretary says; "Fhe new issue
will be one of short term notes running
not over five years, which will serve the
interests of the United States at this
time better than by the issuance of long
err term bonds which would have to bear
the limited rate Of interest Of 4h per
cent" The exact interest rate will be
made known April 10.
The notes will be, as were the Liberty
loan bonds, direct promise to pay of
the United States and will have interest
coupons attached covering the entire
life of the note. Secretary Glass ex-
peCUS bne engTdFeu HoJes Will De Ieduy
for delivery April 81,
He says: 81 am glad to adopt the plan
issuing short term notes rather than
long term bonds mainly because l be
lieye a short term issue will maintain
price at about par after the campaign
is over, more readily than would long
err term issue.
"The treasury department will carry
on the same intensive campaign distri-
button as heretofore. 1t will be unfor-
tumate if the people fail TO take these
notes, placing the burden of subscription
on the banks. The business of the. coun-
try looks to the banks for credit to carry
on its operations, and if that credit is
absorbed largely by buying government
securities, there will be many limitations
in supplying credit for business pur.
poses"
81 therefore ask the American people
TO give their support again to the gov
eminent that this loan may be made an
overwhelming success by the widest pos.
sible distribution"

sPAULDING GIRLS DEFEATED
But the Boys Second Team Won from
Whitcomb High Boys.

Two basketball games were played
last evening at the Spaulding gymna-
stun. The feature game was that OF
Spaulding high school girls against Il
girls team composed Of Whitcomb
tBethel high school graduates, in which
the latter won by one point the score
being Z to 8. The other game involved
the SpauIding boys second team and the
Whitcomb high, but in this game the
visitors received n marked defeat, the
result being Spaulding 80, Whiteomb a.
The girls game was divided into three
l0-minute periods, which were filed with
excitement and sprinkled with good
teamwork. Spaulding girls showed the
results of Miss Helen Beveridge's coach
ing and drill of many weeks. 1t was
only during the last minute Of play that
the game was lost to Bethel. Miss Anne
Marshall scored the winning basket just
in time to claim victory. Miss Lera
Hayey made, without doubt, the best
shot during the game by caging the bali
at a long and difficult angle
The second game was decidedly differ
ent from the other in that the home boys
completely outclassed the visitors, dis

The Bethel players took many chances
at long shots, trusting to luck that the
ball would fall in but their luck was not
there and many times the ball struck
quite a distance from it's goal. For
Bethel, Newton and Marshall played
strong game, while George Douglas was
easily the star for Spaulding though he
was well supported by his teammates
