done. 1t rained five days the past
week. Had regular root-soaker
and gully-washer on Thursday morn

pours. However, we have much to be
thankful for. We have our homes

the lamp of life extinguished in the
twinkling of an eye.
Our school will close the eleventh

have only one teacher now, and only
a few students. Some of the young

dents had to quit school on account Of
having to give up one of the teachers.
Recently we had an election for
school trustee. Mr.. Joseph Perkins
was chosen to take the place of For

hoping to have a good school next

three teachers.

Liberty Sends at Prevailing Market
Prize, or Even Higher Level,
Are I Splendid Buy.

The drastic decline in Liberty
Bonds has caused loss TO the in
veStmeHt public. which bought
nearly $4,000 100000 of these
securities in less than two years,
or more than $500, 100000. This
sum represents the difference in
the par Valie of Liberty Bonds
and the low price quoted on the
Stock Exchange today, which
shows Il depreciation of from TO
II per cent on the five loans.
The abot2 statement is taken from
Il ST. Louis newspaper, which in print
ing it announced thar the information
contained in the nearly Il column ar
ticle that followed was sent by leased
wire from its New York Bureau.
The fact that Liberty Bonds were
selling considerably under par value
at the time is true, but that the loss
is anything as great as quoted is er-
rOneOuS.
In fact, the loss that those have
sustained on Liberty Bonds because
of selling them at Il price below par
has been IL loss at all is voluntary on
the part of the seller. He knows that
by holding the bonds he will receive
par, ut least. for them. together with
the interest stipulated in the bonds as
fast as it falls due.
The Liberty Bond that you and 1
bought during the drives, and for
which we paid par, is actually worth
as much today as it was the day it
was bought. The United States gov
eminent has not defaulted on a single
interest payment, and it will not. It
has never yet failed to meet an obli-
CATION when it became due, and it will
never fail
There are many reasons why Liber-
ty Bonds are selling below par today.
But the man who owns IL Liberty Bond.
and holds it. will receive, when it is
due, 1.-The full amount promised By
the government. And if history re-
peats itself, as it nearly always does,
he may long before they mature dis
pose of his bonds, not at discount.
but at Il premium.
That the people as whole have not
lost confidence in Liberty, Bonds is
eNiuSloeu ny tHS NuSt Nolu'''S VI SAFES.
For every bond sold there was buyer
as well as seller. The buyer knew
he was getting bargain. The seller
was either frightened needlessly or
he was in such dire straits for ready
money that he sacrificed one of the
best investments he ever made. 1t is
the wise nfan who not only holds onto
the Liberty Bonds he now owns but
who is increasing his holdings.
One of the established rules in BUSH
ness is to buy when commodity is
cheap and sell when it is dear. Now
is the time to buy Liberty Bonds, but
it is mighty poor time to sell.
