when my husband was killed. Is
there any way l can get help for
me and my son? - Mrs. V. b.,
Greenville, Ala.
A. You do not give sufficient
detail for me to determine wheth-
err you are eligible to a pension
or not. It seems your son may
be eligible for pension, but you
should apply to the nearest Vet
erans' administration office and
they will determine your eligi-
bility.
@. My husband is a veteran of
World War I. He has children by
a former marriage. Now l worked
during the war and saved money
and bought us a home after we
were married. Should my husband
pass away would I have to give
his children half of the money
from the place? The place is in
my name. Would l have to divide
insurance money with them? The
policy is made to mel. J. p,
San Bernardino, Calf.
A. Yours is strictly a civilian,
legal case insofar as your estate
and insurance is concerned, since
take it the insurance is not gov
2rnment insurance. However, if
your husband should die, the wild
wv and children would be eligible
for a pension if your income is
not in excess of $4,000. $35 per
month for the widow, $45 for
widow and one child and SIS per
month for each additional child.
@. For 8 months and % days
was member of the WAC.
We were part of the army, but
not with the army. Am I en-
titled to any privileges which are
available under the present C. I.
bill?-Miss M. S., Fulton, N. Y.

slaves to drink,-they are alco-
holics. Then everything is sacri-
feed for drink-health, home,
business, character, loved ones,
happiness, yes the hope OF heaven
itself.
From wide experience with al
coholism, it is my firm conviction
that nothing but the power OF
God can break the habit. Other
so-called cures" are only tenn
porary.
Alcoholics Anonymous, now a
nation wide organization, OF
growing proportions, with clubs
in all principal cities shows men
now the power Of God can cure
alcoholism. To the increasing
number of those who write the
Everyday Counselor concerning
alcoholism, l again say, Seek out
your nearest club, or write to AL
coholics Anonymous, Box 657
Church St. Annex, New York
City.
To those social drinkers who
may happen to read this, plead,
Why trifle with that which is an
nually running thousands of lives.
You see the terrible results of
alcohol all about you. What
makes you think, "That won't
happen to me-? 1t may. Why run
The risk?

The Everyday

Rev. Herbert Spaugh, d. d.

Drinking far outranked all 9TH
er male faults in recent Gallup
Poll of the ten worst faults of
husbands and wives. Among
wives faults drinking was num-
Der four. while nagging was num-
Der one. Readers Digest which
gives the list in an article con-
densed from Redbook observes
that drinking was a minor prob
lem in a similar survey taken ten
years ago.
Alcoholism is certainly the
number one problem which comes
to this desk. The dreary and
tragic procession haUuts me. How
long are we going to continue to
trifle with this paollc enemy
number one?
Beverage alcohol is Giabolical

have heard its tragic story so Of
ten until l know it by heart.
It always commences with So
cial drinking, usually among
young people who indulge be-
cause they think it is smart"
Modern society looks upon it ap-
provingly. Some continue this
custom in moderation through
out life with little or no appar-
ent i'll effect.
But increasing thousands are
slipping over into the second
stage. They take it for the lift"
it gives them. They fail to re-
alIze the deadly fact that alcohol
is habit-forming. Before they
realize it, the habit has fastened
itself upon them, and they are

Montana Still Leads
In U. S. Savings Bonds

The people OF Montana have not
only continued their purchases of
Series e, United States Savings
Bonds, since the conclusion Of the
War financing program in the Vic
tory Loan, but have actually bettcred
the standing of the State in that re-
gard, according 10 Mr.. Arthur Nell
son, Helena. State Director Of the
U. S. Savings Bonds Division. In
mcdiately after Pearl Harbor Mon
tana took sixth place in per capita
ton consistently through the entire
War financing period, though it
ranks 10Th among the States in per
capita income, Mr.. Nelson said.
Treasury analysts have just reported
that Montana with per capita sale
of S430.93 now ranks fourth among
the States over the period May l.
l94l to April 80, 1916. and fifth
among the States for sales during
the first quarter of 1916. Only %
Oregon 449.48: (2) Connecticut
44205; 80 Washington 435.75; now
lead Montana in per capita sales
curing the overall period.
Nelson explained that the Treas
ury is pushing the sale of Savings
Bonds, not TO obtain money to IL
nance the deficit. but in order to
combat the inflationary pressures
which are still continuing from the
War. and to secure better distribu-
ton of the public debt. Every dollar
of savings bonds sold today permits
the retirement of dollar of debt
held by the banks. he said. The
Treasury desires to keep ownership
of the debt spread among as many
Americans as possible so that the
interest may 90 to them as holders
of savings bonds rather than to
comparatively few banks. corporate
or individual investors. Since March
list seven billion dollars of maturing
obligations have been retired out OF
Treasury cash balances and most of
this retired debt was held by COM
mercial banks.
