Mrs. J. Mack Rhodes at their home
on Tuesday evening. The family
were planning to spend the evening
away from home when the door bell
rang and Allan was asked to answer
it. The blank expression Oh Lis face
revealed the complete surprise when
80 young people greeted him and fne
lights were turned on showing the
preparations that had been made for
the surprise party.
A spider web Of Irvine lad been
made through the house and ct the
end of each piece an Easter favor was
found. The lucky string nal a hox OF

The dining room was effectively de-

flowers with an artistic arrangement
of pink and white sweet peas on the
table for a centre piece where the
guests enjoyed a salad course, coffee,
pink and white ice cream and the
birthday cake in white which was
lighted with Is tapers. The fun in
creased as Allan blew out the lights
so that the cake could be served.
Everybody thoroughly enjoyed the
evening.

VICTORY LOAN NOT LARGE
Attractive Investment an Which All
Should Participate With Pride and
Pleasure.

Washington, April 19-Subscriptions
will be received during the Victory
Liberty loan campaign for the wholly
tax exempt notes bearing 8 ga per
cent interest, which the treasury will
issue a. alternatives of the 4 ga per
cent securities with partial tax exemp-
ton. Emphasis however will be LAID
by solicitors on the 4 ga notes and an
effort will be made to round up the
bulk of subscriptions to these securi-
ties which may be converted at any
time into the 3 ga per cent notes.
A limited amount of the 4. ga. per
cent notes will be available for out
right sale, but the treasury is not
sure that all demands for cash pur-
chases can be filled. AS in past cam
paigns, work has been rushed at the
bureau of engravings on the bonds OF

Qualification over the $4,000, 600, 900
total Of the loan, which smaller than
had been generally anticipated and
the interest rate was expressed today
in hundreds of kilograms reaching the
treasury from the loan committees
throughout the country. Many of
these were to the effect that the terms
had raised the hopes ofsthe loan work
ers and financial observers.
Officials discussing terms of the Vic
tory loan today said n reason for
their belief that the market price OF
bonds of past issues would not be de-
pressed by the new securities, raj
that there still should exist a strong
demand for the older issues by large
tax payers. With certain arrange
ments of holdings of past issues, it is
possible to hold S16O,OOO of bonds alb

BACKACHE is DISCOURAGING
But Not So Bad If You Know How to
Reach the Cause.

Nothing more discouraging than a
constant backache. Lame when you
awaken, pains pierce you when you
bend or lift. It's hard to work OF
rest. Backache often indicates bad
kidneys and calls for prompt treat
ment. The best recommended remedy
is Doan's Kidney Pills. Profit by this

that drop boosts the buying power of
your dollar by just so much. Itmakes
every dollar that you own that much
more valuable. Why? Because it
makes it able to buy more. Ten years
ago dollar would buy just little
more than twice as much of most
articles. In 1929 dollar may be buy
ing twice as much as it will to-day.
Money fluctuations like that are by nc
means unknown. Pendulums swing
back after they swing to the end Of
their arc.
All this means that you have q
mighty good chance to increase the
value of all the dollars that you put
into the Victory Liberty or any other
Government Loan or security.

A Dollar Now and a Dollar Then.

Money in Government Securities
assures staple value.
A dollar says that it is worth 100
cents. But sonnet times dollar will
not puy quite as much as it will at
other times.
Just now is one of those times as
you smay have noticed. A dollars
worth of beefsteaf now and dollars
worth back in 1909 are two entirely
different propositions.
To o-day the U. S, Government bonds
are about the only things you can buy
with feeling of absolute confidence
that you are getting full dollars
worth. When you pay out One Hun
dred Dollars for a Victory Liberty
note you may know that you are
getting your moneys worth dollar
for dollar.
At the present time no one else,
other than the U. s. Government, is
accepting dollar at its face value.
The merchant wants your money and
takes it at discount. Buy anything
you like and it costs you more than 1t
did a while ago. You can buy any
number of things whose cost has
doubled. You can find them where
the cost has tripled. In some articles
the cost has multiplied even more.
All these articles are going to come
down. Very, very few, II any, will
be maintained at the present prices
You can already note certain indica
tions Of slip in price. These indica'
tions are not very marked as yet bu
the trend is that way away deep il
the market Some of the STAPLE
materials have fallen in price. In thu
course of time the manufactured ar
tcles made from staple raw material
will feel the~pull downward.

Small Likelihood Of Any Deficit on Wheat

BOSTON, Mass. There is small like
lihood of the United States Govern
ment having to face deficit because
it's guarantee OF a fixed price for
wheat, according to Secretary of
Commerce Redfeld, who addressed
the Executive Association of Whole
sale Grocers of New England here
recently. Foreign crops were greatly
impaired by war conditions, and the
European demand for American
wheat will far exceed the normal
figures.
In the event that the Government
price should exceed current market
quotations, Secretary Redfield thinks
the nation should accept the loss and
permit the people to reap the benefit.
"There has been speculation in
Washington as to what it would cost
the Government to make good it's
Wheat guaranty" said Mr.. Redfield.
"Opinions have ranged anywhere
from nothing to billion dollars. AS
time goes on, however, it becomes
increasingly clear that the food con-
ditions in large parts of the world are
bad, worse than thought. The people
of the Central Powers probably will
not raise over half crop, and as they
used to call upon US for large amounts
of food in normal times, it is certain
those demands will be greatly in
creased, provided also that means
can be found for payment. There
fore many well informed men doubt
whether the prices of wheat will fall
below or even to the government
guaranty.
"If they should go below it is my
own belief that the government
should itself accept the loss and al
low the country the benefit, if there
= shall be one, of the lowest prices that
prevail"
