He is Lieutenant Charles M. Cummins, of Richmond, Va. Cummins was an army aviator. While makiag a flight at Gerstner Field, La., in February, 1918, he fell 2500 feet, fracturing the fourth, fifth and sixth cervical vertebrae and dis locating several other vertebrae par tially. After the fall he was sent to Letter man General Hospital at the Presidio in San Francisco for treatment. Army surgeons who are almost working mir acles there in the reconstruction of the war wounded finally fitted a metal collar on the aviator to carry the weight of his bead. U worked—and now Lieutenant Cummins is walking about apparently normal. Only One of Many. Lieutenant Cummins' case is only one of many, but it stands out because of the popular superstition that a man can't live if his neck is broken. The reconstruction surgeons at Letterman are working on hundreds of cases much more difficult than the flyer's. They are receiving men there daily from the battlefields of France, whose legs and arms hang withered and help less and they are turning those men out, after months of special treatment and patient mechanical manipulation, able to use their arms and legs and capable of making a living. The cost, of course, is tremendous when one takes into consideration the fact that the same work is being car ried on in many military hospitals. Already Congress has appropriated mil lions of dollars to carry on the work and millions more will have to be made available for the cause. For it is a cause, this regeneration of the men who gave their bodies to their coun try. Cummins Flies Again. Part of the money to be realized from the Victory Liberty Loan will be used for this job of reconstruction or regeneration. Think of this when you are, making up your mind as to how much of the loan you, personally, are going to subscribe. Lieutenant Cummins made a flight with his collar on just to convince him self that he hadn't lost his nerve. We can't afford to lose our nerve on a dollar and cents proposition in the face of the deeds of such men. WAR STAMP SALE WILL NOT CHANGE NEW LOAN QUOTAS Treasury Department Alters Plan Announced Last January Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not be affected by Thrift Stamp sales as planned by the Treasury Department the first of the year. It was announced last January by Lewis B. Franklin, director of war savings, that wherever Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded the amount of oversubscription would be taken from the coming loan quota and that if the Thrift Stamp quotas were not reached the deficiency would be added to the loan quota. Governor James K. Lynch of the Federal Reserve Bank has just received a telegram from Washington advising that the plan to adjust Vic tory Loan quotas in accordance with the sale of War Savings Stamps has been abandoned. The reason given was that some of the Federal Reserve Districts were not reapportioning Thrift Stamp quotas. Thrift began long before money was Invented. AMERICAN IDEALS CASH AND CREDIT SUNK IN NEW ERA By United States Senator Reed Smoot of Utah. "America's task is not over; her world-work still remains to be done A great national, in fact a great inter national duty, still confronts the Ameri can people. The cash and the credit of the American people must be used to finish paying for this war and to pay for financing the peace that is here in part and which is now in process of completion and confirmation in Baris, where under the leadership of our great President our country is imbed ding American ideals and American principles into the very foundation of a new and a better world. "No American who loves his coun try and who loves humanity and Jus tice and right can regard his sacrifices at an end or his duty done. We must pay for those things we bought or con tracted for to make our army powerful and to give our soldier boys the best care possible. We must bring these boys home and restore-then to useful occupations Jn eivtl life. We must re habilitate the wounded, and train them and fit them for useful occupations— to of of not for making - of nicknacks. but for men's work, which men can do in spite of loss of limbs or other perma nent injury. We must stand by our associates in the war against Germany and do our complete duty by them and by the stricken peoples of those coun tries who suffered under German hands. ', Must Finish Work. "To do our national duty every man, woman and child in America must make every reasonable sacrifice. The great work we have done and are doing is worthy of every sacrifice. Our sol diers have not died merely that we might be safe from German domina tion; they died for much more than that. They died for American prin ciples, world justice and world liberty, and that a better world should result from their sacrifice. We American people must finish their work. "Money is a great essential for the proper performance of America's duty and this money must be furnished by the American people. They simply lend it to their government which gives them in exchange securities of unim peachable value bearing a fair rate of Interest. Through the Liberty Loan and through the War Savings Stamps the United States offers every citizen, however small his or her means and however small his or her earning ca pacity, the opportunity to have a part in the nation's great task. It is a mighty poor American, in my opinion, who lets this opportunity pass, who leaves to others the sacrifice, and the glory of America's mission." TO THE WOUNDED This is our homage when you pass us by; Not the crude pitying stare you dread, but this— Averted eyes, and conquered tears, and pangs Of helpless love . . . You do not know how brave We also are, not stretching out our hands, Maddened with pity, to the stranger faces That whitely pass us, needing us so much! Oh, boy with deep bright eyes and crippled foot. Oh, soldier with the face made old with war, We promise you, by every wound you bear, A nation's homage and a nation's help, And all its grateful hearts, your eager friends!

(Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Black walnut Is one of the most profitable woodland and pasture trees. It Is rapidly becoming scarce on ac count of the important part it has play ed In the war, and the strong demand for the' wood for cabinet material, cas kets, musical Instruments, furniture, etc. The nuts for planting should be se lected, so far as possible, from vig orous trees producing good-sized nuts in abundance. If squirrels and bogs are not troublesome, the nuts may be planted this fall, putting two nuts In a hole and covering with about 2 Inches*of soil well firmed. In many places the safest method is probably to keep the nuts over winter and plant them in the spring. For this purpose a pit, dug 8 to 12 inches deep in a Well-drained, cool location, is a desjra hle storage place. A layer of nuts, two nuts deep, is covered with an Inch of sand, and so on until all the nuts are stored, after which soil should be mounded over the pit to shed excess moisture. Nuts mixed with sand will keep quite satisfactorily in a cool cel lar. A bushel of walnuts contains from 1,100 to 1,400, depending upon the size of the nuts, or enough to plant an acre using two nuts in each hole, spac ing the latter 8 feet apart each way. »«M^sM'i^ 1 ****************^ ' ROUT THE RAT The United States food ad ministration emphasizes the im ! ! portance of more serious atten " lion to the rat menace on the <, part of American farmers.

(From the United States Department of Agriculture.) One of the most common mistakes In the feeding of dairy cows Is that the good cows are not given a suffi cient quantity of feed above that re quired for their physical maintenance to obtain the maximum quantity of xilk they are capable of producing. 2 a ' Security and Good Service Kendrick State Bank oJùnteîlsit to the Boss "Tisn't the size of a plug that counts," says Jim.
