DON'T SELL YOUR
LIBERTY BONDS

When the patriotic editor men of
the country were telling their read
ers three and four years ago that
the American governments Liberty
and Victory bonds were as good as
gold-and perhaps better-they be-
lieved what they wrote. They had
seen Tor 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 4 4 to 4 "a per cent would
be the same.
1t is true they didn't suspect that
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 60
ing steadily upward. And they will
keep going up! A 800 bond that
you could sell for only $S5 about a
year ago now brings around 500.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1921-11-17
Victory bonds are almost to par.

Victory bonds are almost to par.
Don't sell your Liberty bonds.
Presently there will be going about
certain smooth gents with fat rolls
offering you a dollar or two above
market price for them. What are
you going to do with themq Keep
them, of course, because they know
it will be only very few years un-
til Uncle Sans gilt edged bonds,
paying higher than savings bank in
terest, will every one of them sell in
the market at we'll above the 800
apiece.
Don't forget that prediction, peo-
Pile!

SPOKANE MAN TELLS
ABOUT RELIEF WORK

because OF widespread confusion
declared to exist over purposes and
names of two distinctly different or
CARNATIONS gathering funds in this
territory for relief overseas, Dr..
Sherman l.. Divine, AIT Peyton build
ing, Spokane, has sent out an expla-
nation of differences between the Near
East Relief Committee and the Euro
pean Relief Council. DR.. Divine is
general chairman for the Near East
Relief in the northwest,
There is absolutely no connection
between the European Relief council,
headed by Herbert Hoover, and the
Near East Relief Committee" Chair
man Divine explains. Each is sep
arate and distinct. There is no dupli-
cation of aid given by the two or
ganizAtions.
Mr.. Hoover is undertaking to sup.
plement the inadequate food ), supply
and to give one meal day to under
nourshed children of central Europe,
Germany, Austria and Poland, Feeding
them in their own homes and schools.
THE Near East Relief Committee is
chartered by congress to rescue, feed,
clothe, shelter and educate the or
phaned children OF our allies in
Asia Minor. and to succor the other
of hungry refugees, made
homeless and foodless by war, mas
sacre and famine that still continue
n Asia Minor. There are more than
100000 orphans and probably 1,000,-
300 other refugees who are entirely
dependent upon Near East Relief,
financed by American contributions,
for food. with no governments to help
them, no churches, no schools and no
homes.
In that country the Near East Re-
lief has taken over all Red Cross
work. In addition to 229 orphanages,
it maintains SO hospitals which give
aid to 10000 people every
month, and II homes crowded With

VOODOOISM is
FAITH OF HAITI.
Admiral Knapp, Investigating
Conditions, Tells Shocking
Tales of Practices.

Native 10 Strongly SuperstitIous,

Great Awe Of Voodoo Priests
and Prlestesses.

Washington, D. C.-That 95 per cent
of the natives of Haiti believe in the
African jungle faith of voodooism
which requires the sacrifice of human
beings and the drinking of human
| blood is declared by Rear Admiral II.
| S. Knapp In his report to the secre-
tary OF the navy on investigation Of
Haitian conditions.
Admiral Knapp cites shocking
case Of the trial Of a voodoo priest,
who Is reported to have killed Ii chill
dren, whose blood was drunk and flesh
eaten by persons present at the rites.
''VoodoOism Is prevalent" says the
admiral's report, "and the further one
goes from the coast into the interior
the more openly is vOodoOism prac
ticed. Voodooism is essentially snake
worship, and in its extreme rites 1t

''The human sacrifice is called the

hratIons, II the word religious can
be applied to such affairs, end In dis
graceful orgies Of debauchery. 1t Is
very difficult, Of course, to determine
just how extensively the beliefs are
held, but some Haitians themselves
have asserted that probably 95 per
cent of the total population believes
in vOodooism to greater or less ex-
tent.
.'Of course, the contrary Is strongly
held by apologists for the Haitian
character. 1t seems certain, however,
that whether it be the effect Of VOC

they deny belief in or the existence of

Voodoo Followers Feared.
Haitian officials high in place will
not take action against persons ac-
cused of voodooism, whether because
