A Good Investment.
BARRE Times.

The warning issued a year or two back
not to sell your Liberty bonds when the
bonds were far below par need not be
repeated, perhaps, now that the bonds
are all selling at par or better; but it is
worth repeating that the bonds are about
the best thing you can hold even though
the returns are not so heavy as in some
more risky investment. Besides that, it
is a rather satisfactory feeling to know
that you are in financial partnership
with the United States government.

THE CHILDREN
MARY l.. OLMSTEAD

You can hush every voice of ma
tional and individual complaint; you
may silence every tongue, even Of
mothers Of destroyed sons and
daughters, and even of wives of prof
ligatc husbands; but let the children
speak-the little children, the wrong
ed children, the crippled children,
the abused children, the imbecile
children, the deserted children, the
beaten children, the nameless child
rem, the dead children! o my God,
this army of little children. Let their
weak voices be heard. Let their lit
tie faces, pinched by want of glad
ness, be heededl Let their challenge,
though made by small forms-too
mighty for estimate be reckoncd
with, Let their writing upon the
wall of the nation, although by tiny
fingers, as stupcndous as eternity, be
correctly interpreted, and read that
the awful robbery of the lawful her
itage of their little bodies, minds and
souls and hearts is laid at the door
of alcohol.

PROHIBITION AND CHILDREN
LAW

"Many lives, especially of children,
have been saved by the diverting Of
incomes from alcohol to the grocer,
baker and milkman,' says w. J. Il.
Deacon, Director of the Bureau Of
Communicable Diseases for the state
of Michigan, is reported to have said.
Kansas for forty years a dry state
has considerably fewer tuberculous
children than Michigan, partly due
to open season and partly due to bet
ter nourshment When malnutrtion
is corrected in Michigan our tubercu-
losis rate will be lowered still fur
Their With the agitation over deaths
from alcohol poisoning today it
should be Remembered that few
years ago legitimate beverages caus-
ed more deaths and that more chill
dren died of malnutrition and tubcr-
culosis than at present"

Bldckhdnder Gets
Three Year Term

Frank Sedler, OwoSso, was SEN
fenced to three years in the federal
prison at Atlanta, Ga, by Judge Ar
thur J. futile in United States court
in Bay City Tuesday morning for
sending a backhand letter through
the mails to A. d. Bell, general man
ager of the Owosso Sugar Co.
Sedlcr was born in Czechoslovakia
and has been in the United States
II years, according to his testimony.
He said that he had been working in
he beet fields during his residence
here and that he took Bells name
from a telephone book and wrote him
a letter demanding $4,000, to be
left at q certain place. The letter
was signed "The Iron Hand Gang"
He was caught when he went af-
ter the money and was taken to Bay
City, where with another prisoner,
he tried to break out Of Jail. The
other prisoner sawed the bars while
Sedlar guarded TO see that they were
not watched. The sheriff watched
the pair for three hours through a
crack and captured them as they
were making a getaway.
In sentencing the prisoner, Judge
futile told HIM that it was no less
a crime to threaten mans life thru
4 letter in order to get $4,000, than
to hold him up with a gun. He then
requested the district attorney to no
tify the immigration authorities and
recommend that Sedler be deported
at the expiration Of his sentence.

DECREASED POPULATION IN
CHILDREN'S INSTITUTIONS

There has been decrease Of pop
ulation in our institutions not only
since 1918 when wartime prohibition
was in effect, but prior to that date,
says Richard Wallace, Assistant
Secretary of the Board of Charities
eff New York. This is particularly
true so far as our work is concerned
in institutions for children. There
are undoubtedly several contributing
factors. The number of children in
institutions was reduced from 36,253
in 1915 to 31,S95 in 1920" The an
nual report of the board mentions
prohibition among the factors that
have to do with the reduction of the
population Of these institutions.

EUeniny Service
At Earlier Hour

Believing that an earlier hour for
the Sunday evening services will find
a better response than the hour that
has been in vogue the Official board
and the congregation of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church recently de-
cded that for the fall and winter
months the Sunday evening services
would be held at 500 p. m. instead
Of 700 o'clock as has been the case
for some generations
The reasons for the change is the
firm conviction that many parents
with little children could be present
at the earlier hour before the bed
time Of the little ones, because this
is the only evening tl}at many bust
ness and working mbn have their
families at home; then 1t is believed
that it will be to the advantage Of
those who are out driving or walk
ing on Sunday as it will enable them
to stop at the Church for an hours
worship and the sermon and yet al
low them to be home in time for the
evening meal, and not have to go out
again in the evening. r'l
The Epworth League meetings
will continue to be held at 600
o'clock, and the League may occas-
ionally have Sunday evening get
together now that the opportunity
Offer, following the League meet
ings.
The change in the Sunday evening
services at the NJ. +. church is eff
fectivc next Sunday evening. The

usual hour, 1900 a. m.

eliminate the practice OF rldlcuIlng
prohibition and clarifying alcoholic
indulgence. No student of racial
psychology believes that prohibition
could take full effect at once. 1t is
meeting with greater success than
could reasonably be expected. Most
of our people are not thinking about
liquor; they have no wish to indulge
in it. 1t is only a small portion of

With this coupe Dodge Brothers have

be as sturdy and practically as inexpensive
as an open roadster.
This is largely due to the all-steel body
the first ever marketed-which admits Of
lower cost of manufacture through stand
ardized machine production. Unlike wood,
the steel surface will take a finish of enamel,
baked on at high temperature. This process
results in permanent lustre, and eliminates
