r. F. Stevens, sponsor for the

the Duck creek quota is 1920, or
$3.50 less than the quota for the

Stevens added that "this 1920
has to be obtained from individual

have a tougher problem for this

of dry land farmers, and of course
this is the off season as far as
their income is concerned. We do

In anticipation of the fifth wal

The quota for the fifth loan is
smaller than for the fourth loan,
but the job is bigger. In the COM

quota. The quota is for individual
subscriptions only.
There are approximately 1877 farm

Meyer Harris, sponsor, said this
week. To meet the quota, the aver
age purchase per family will be
slightly more than $500.

Actual Bomb Is Here
For Signing; Theatre
To Give Free Tickets

Laurel people buying bonds in the
fifth war loan may, if they wish,
autograph an actual bomb that will
be used in the war. The bomb is
now at the Yellowstone bank where
it is displayed in the lobby. Bond
buyers may sign their names on
the bomb, a gift to Hitler or TOTO.
OF course the bomb is harmless,
but after the autographs have been
affixed and the fifth loan closes it
will be returned to the army for
loading. A coat Of lacquer will go
over the signatures. 1t may be
some Laurel boy will help load it
on an American airplane at some
overseas front.
In connection with the fifth loan,
J. H. Moran, manager of the Royal
theatre, announced Wednesday that
anyone buying a bond at a Laurel
issuing agency will be given a
ticket of admission to the theatre.
The effective dates of the offer are
June IL to July 8. The tickets will
be given at the bond issuing agency
and will be honored at the theatre,
Moran said.

CAR USE STAMP ON
SALE JUNE 10 At So

Sale of auto use tax stamps of
S. will begin June 10, Lewis Pen
well, collector of internal revenue
for the district of Montana has an
nounced. Available in all postof-
fees and at the office of the col
lector of internal revenue in Helena,
the stamps will evidence payment
of the tax for the fiscal year be-
ginning July 1, 1914. The stamps,
which must be purchased on or be-
fore July 1, will be gummed on the
face, and will have provisions on
the back for entry of make, model,
serial number and state license of
the vehicle.
Penwell suggests that vehicle
owners, when affixing the stamps,
dampen the windshield rather than
the adhesive side of the stamp. This
method keeps the stamp intact,
helps guard against loss of theft.
He also recommends that each own
err keep a record of the serial num-
Der of his stamp for protection in
case of loss.

morning of the next day in Europe,
For several hours the only re-
ports we're those of German origin,
but towards daylight the allied high
command declared landings had
been made on France and that the
opposition had not been as severe
as had been expected.
All day Tuesday the invasion
was the only topic of conservation
in Laurel and every new develop
ment was eagerly seized and dis
cussed. Undoubtedly a good many
Laurel boys are having their first
views of France.
The landings were made OIL Nor
mandy and points previously select
ed. The location was the immediate
vicinity of LaHavre. 1t was the
greatest invasion force ever known
in military hitory.
Wednesday reports were that the
invasion coast at that time was
about $50 miles long and that vary
ing depths inland had been attained.
Allied invasion armies have cap
tured Bayeux, five miles inland on
their main Normandy coast beach
head, and have driven across the
Bayeux-Caen highway at
several points.
The allied troops had fought their
way to the streets of Caen Tuesday,
but historic Bayeux, which dates
from Roman times, was the first
city in France to be liberated by
the allies.
There were reports the Germans
setting fire to military objec-
lives in the Cherbourg peninsula,
to the northwest of Bayeux IN pre-
paration for withdrawal.
1t was said officially that enemy
resistance was becoming stronger
md was expected to increase fur
her.
The Paris radio said Wednesday
night that the allies had made two
lew landings during the day on the
Coast-one in the Pas de
area and the other at Cap
lie la Haoue at the tip of the Cher
,ourg peninsula.
