DON'T SELL YOUR
LIBERTY BONDS.

When the patriotic editor men of
the country were telling their read
ers three or four years ago that the
American government Liberty and
Victory bonds were as good as gold
and perhaps better they believ-
ed what they wrote. ;They had
seen Cor knew of the action of our
civil war bonds, which, after the
war. went to high premium on only
three to four per cent, and they
were convinced as men can be con-
WINGED of anything, that Liberty
bonds at Az to Az per cent would
be the same. Asa
It is true they didn't suspect the
bonds would take the tumble they
did right on top Of victory.
But now they are coming out of
their gloom. Liberty bonds are go
ing steadily upward, AND THEY
WILL KEEP GOING UP! A 500
bond that you could sell for only
$50 about year ago now brings
around 500. Victory bonds are al
most to par.
Don't sell your Liberty bonds.
Presently there will be going about
certain smooth gents with fat rolls
offering you dollar or two above
market price for your bond. What
are they going to do with them
Keep them, of course, because they
know it will be only very few
years until Uncle Sans gilt-edged
bonds, paying higher than savings
bank interest, will every one OF
them sell in the market at we'll
above 500 opiece.
Don't forget that prediction
folks.

HOW THE BATTLE GOES,
AGAINST CANCER

A single surgeon down east made
the statement that radium was of
little or no use in the treatment Of
cancer. Because people had gotten
to believe the opposite, this state
ment was sensational and accord
ingly the daily newspaper press as
sociations sent it scurrying to ev-
cry nook and corner of the country,
carrying dismay to tens of thou
sands of sufferers and their rela-
tives and friends.
But tht surgeon had no sooner
said his mouthful before scores of
just as eminent surgeons came out
with strong statements combating
his ill-advised, depressing express
sion of opinion. Many of these
men are devoting their lives to the
cure and relief of cancer sufferers
and their declarations can leave not
the slightest doubt that radium is a
relief in many cases and positive
cure frequently. But the daily
press didn't rush into print what
they had to say.
While we are at 1T let us give the
very latest facts on cancer as a dis
ease. The records of the two fore
most life insurance companies in
America-the two insuring the
greatest number Of people-show
that cancer is NOT INCREASING
In this country, Due to the in
creasing number Of cures, the "a
talities are, in truth, DECREASING
There is hope that cancer will
before long, cease to be the monster
1t is today. With tens of thousands
of scientists giving their best thot
to it and Investigating and exper-
imenting every day of their lives, II
is only to be expected that the dis
ease will be conquered in good time;
or anyway the number of its vic
Tins greatly reduced.

SOME COMPENSATION

An official of large corporation
which had made a rather poor earn
ings report, commented with salts
faction on the fact that competing
companies had had considerable
larger deficits.
I'VE can derive some consolation
from this he said, and went on.
"It reminds me OF the story Of
the man who was travelling through
the West Virginia mountains and,
approaching poor cottage, saw
three boys, two OF whom were
sobbing loudly while the smallest
seemed not to have a care in the
world. At the door of the cottage
the father of the boys stood, gun in
hand, and the stranger inquired the
source of the sorrow Of the two old
err boys.

THIS IS OUR BEST
SESQUIEDITORIAL

The times are certainly looking
up when we Americans already are
beginning to talk of another world
fair. Few things make for peace
and good will like these great in
ternational expositions where the
best every nation has in art and
industry is placed on exhibition
and to which the whole world pill
grimages.
1t seems that the esteemed Phila-
delphia first proposed the coming
worlds fair and that staid lady
among our cities has made up hel
mind that she is to have it.
Philadelphia calls it the "sesqui
centennial" Where else woult
you expect that mouthful to star
from but Philadelphia? "Sesqui'
lone half again." You see ou
greatest worlds fair before the Co
lumbar at Chicago, was held II
that QUAINT old Quaker town" Il
1875. One half a century agail
would bring us to 1926. So Phila
delphia proposes the "Sesquicenten
NAL for 1926.
We assume that the humorist
will be whole-souled for this "ses
quicentenniaP' because it will Civ
them chance to have fun wit
Philadelphia. Momentarily we ar
expecting somebody to describe tina
sleepy city and it's worlds fair nam
as "sesquipedalian" which accord

This matter of closing rural post
offices on Sunday thus depriVing
farmers from getting their mail,
tested, seems to be case of mis-
taken identity. So far as we can
learn the department has issued no
order closing rural post offices on
Sunday. The department has mere
ly sent out bulletin relieving rural
carriers from working on Sunday in
the post offices, sorting and hand
ing out mail. If the office is open

pleasant and additional task OF

The new woman has come to the
front with a startling innovation
that is likely to shock the SENSIBLE
lies of some of he older people, both
men and women. The new woman
is in a campaign up to her neck, as
the saying is, to have the law
changed so that she does not change
her name after marriage. This
might work out fairly we'll with a
childless couple but how about the
misguided pair that have children
Whose name will they bear? We
hope we are mistaken but the infer
ence is that what the new woman
really wants is to make marriage
and divorce about as easy and un-
important as changing ones socks.

The conference to limit arma-
ments has met and listened to the
proposal OF the United States. 1t
was just what the American peo-
pie had been led to expect provid-
ing secret diplomacy was abolished.
America came to the front at the
first opportunity, and as this paper
suggested, laid all it's cards on the
table face up and challenged the
other nations of the world, partic-
ularly England and Japan, to do
the same. The yigor and force
with which this country offered to
scrap it's naval rmament at the
ratio Of two dollars to one required
OF it's most formidable conferees,
must have been distinct shock. If
it was it also spoke for the deep in
terest of the American public in
avoiding future war and continuing
expense for arms and munitions OF
warfare. The trick was ably turn
ed and If the nations at the confer
ence board consider it a huge bluff
they have only to call the turn to
find that Notwithstanding the SUI

posal of the United States, the pub
