THE XEW LOAX QUOTA
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
announced last night that the amount
of the Fourth Liberty Loan had been
fixed at ?6,OOQ,000,000, just double the
amount of the third loan.
With the interest rate of 4 per
cent still holding good, the bonds will
mature October 15, 193S, twenty years
after their issuance. The Trcasurj
Department can, however, redeem
them at par and accrued interest after
October 15, 1932.
The quota of the Eighth Federal Un
serve District, of which Boone County
is a part, has been set at $260,000,000,
which-means that the people of Boone
County and Columbia will be expected
to subscribe approximately twice
their quotas in the last loan.
It is up to Boone Countians, as
well as all other Missourians, to make
the best possible showing on Volun

rians in France, including General
John J. Pershing, to hear that their
native state had oversubscribed "s
share of the Fourth Liberty Loan
without being solicited? That it had
been done purely voluntarily?
The amount and conditions of the
loan are known, so decide immediate

going to buy, have your 10 per cont

THE NEW BOOKS
Even if they freeze when winter
comes we don't doubt that the Ger
mans are praying for an early winter
on the fighting line.
WHAT EVERYBODY CAN GIVE
Little Belgian children are wearing
dresses made from burlap and coats
made from old blankets when they can
get them. Many have no shoes at all.
When the Red Cross asks you to
contribute clothing for them do not re
fuse on the plea that you have noth
ing to give. Anything is acceptable
except flimsy dresses, straw hats and
high-heeled shoes. Woolen garments
and old shoes are especially accept
able. Woolen underwear that has been
practically discarded by those living
in steam-heated houses, old sweaters,
baby clothes, bed linen, can be util
ized in dozens of ways.
Scraps of goods left over are often
large enough to make a warm gar
ment for a small child or can be used
in mending or remaking other gar
ments. Don't refuse to give. Ransack your
attic, and all the closets, and the base
ment and every other part of the
house, and give all that you do not
actually need, for there are thousands
who will suffer intensely from the cold
this winter unless America reaches
out and draws them under the pro
tecting warmth of her coat.
"Columbia" would be a good name
for a ship or tank. The people of
Columbia can name one for their city
if it ranks among the 240 communities
making the best record for obtaining
subscriptions to the Fourth Liberty
Loan.
faWe'H Sick to the Finish."
Immediately after a visit by Joe
-Mitchell Chappie to all the battle
fronts and to the Queenstown naval
base he has published a most excellent
volume entitled "We'll Stick to the
Finish."
The last chapter was passed by the
United States naval censor with the
following comment: "This is the first
time I have let anyhing about Queens
town go out. I think, however, there
is nothing in the story to help the Ger
mans, so O K."
Maintaining his reputation of know
ing personally more famous people
than any other man in the world, Mr.
Chappie writes of his visits with the
great military leaders Fcch, Persh
ing, Haig, Diaz, Joffre and with Cle
menceau, Lloyd George and Orlando.
Withal, the bock is the most compre
hensive which has yet appeared, be
cause of the wide territory covered by
the author.

THE STAKE
The following editorial, entitled
"The Stake," appeared in a recent is
sue of the Stars and Stripes, the week
ly newspaper put out by the American
Expeditionary Forces in France:
"The part each one of us plays in
this great drama of war is so small,
however big. that we must be forgiv
en if we sometimes fail to see the
whole of it through the eyes of em
battled democracy against embattled
Prussianism or the other way round.
"If we are unloading cases of am
munition at a base port, filing person
nel data at Tours, classifying the lat
est shipment of disabilities at Bloes,
boiling coffee for the line in Lorraine,
or clearing Belleau Wood of machine
guns, we cannot halt every half hour
to consider how overpowering!- tre
mendous the stakes are.
"But, In a free moment, it is well
for everyone of us to stand off mental
ly and look at things as one would
look at them, say, from the moon
to look at them and reflect on the pon
derous significance of the whole vast
turmoil of the world.
"For Germanys stake is theworId.
Ours is the right to live in it as we
see fit not as Germany sees fit to
let us."
For practically every man has used
it who has suffered from rheumatic
aches, soreness of muscles, stiffncs3 of
joints, the results of weather exposure.
Women, too, by the hundreds of
thousands, use it for relieving neuritis,
lame backs, neuralgia, sick headache.
