It we do not at once contribute some portion ot the prosperity which our country has made possible tor us, we are not doing our share to assist our allies, and we may suffer defeat which will Impose upon this country such a conqueror's indemnity as wUl lose oar hard-to n freedom for genera tions. There are over 100 million men, women and children in this country, of whom It is estimated that there art more 'than 40 million persons engaged in gainful occupations.' It Is vitally necessary for each of these 40 million persons to realize the danger and the opportunity and to subscribe a portion of bis pos sessions to this second Liberty loan of 1917. During the war with Spain the United States government sold $200,000,000 worth of bonds at 100 cents on the dollar, which were oversubscribed seven ' times, and were quoted immediately at a pre mium. Two years after the war the price of $100 bonds went to $111, thus bringing a profit to the holder of 11 per cent, besides the regular Interest. The Liberty loan of three billion dollars will be fully subscribed, but its success will not be dependent on its being fully subscribed. Like the first Liberty loan, it will be successful only If it is sub stantially oversubscribed and the money comes from the right sources What are the right sources? The best source is the idle money now kept in safe deposit boxes, and at home. At the same time the per son who has money In his safe de posit box can immediately better his position by baying these govern ment bonds. He will receive four per cent on his money which Is not earning anything now for him. He will lose nothing in security. The next best source is current savings. This applies to the rich and the poor. It Is Jtist as neces sary for you with an income of $3,' 000 ft year to subscribe for your share of the Liberty bonds as It Is for John D. Rockefeller with his supposed income of 30 million dol lars a year to take his proportion of the bonds out of his current sav ings. When you buy a Liberty bond you are saving a part of your income exactly as if you deposited the money in a savings bank. Tou are helping your country too. WITH U. S. RECEPTION Toklo, Oct. 13. The cordial re ception given to Viscount lshll in the United States caused a favorable Impression Jhrounhont Japan and has called forth appreciative com ment. The semi-official Japan Times re gards the reception as unprecedent ed In Japanese experience In its hearty cordiality, honor and respect paid and in the enthusiasm of Its demonstration. The newspaper adds: "The embassy's Journey from Honolulu to Washington has indeed been a veritable series of royal re ceptions In the best sense of the term. In which was embodied Amer ican hospitality and sincerity on a most generous and majestic scale. for which the Americans are tradi tionally noted. All this Is most grat ifying to Japan and the Japanese. Japan and the Japanese cannot but feel and appreciate most profoundly the expressions of the cordlallest friendship and ot the reality of war time alliance made through Vis count lshll." 1L PLAY HOCKEY draft If wa er only boya we'd march along with you to Franca But aa wa are Just girls, I tussa thera la no chance.
