' i TIIK RISK IN LIKKKTYS Springfield Republican. The rise in Liberty bonds and Vic tory notes is due to a combination of causes. In most Cf the comment on the subject little attention has boon paid to tho government's special in terest in forcing the war issues up to as near par as possible in tho coin ing year or two. When the Victory notes mature, they will bo refunded ir ti e forms of a long term bond and 'wnduds of millions .'; dollars it; intuest money will bo sv.vod by t or United states treasury during tbt next generation if they can bo mar keted successfully at a low rate, say 1 per cent. Tho government's prospects of ob taining a low interest rate in the huge refunding opcrv..ion that is I: come iwill improve as tho old war is sues approach par. Hence the whcl' financial power of the government through nurcha.es in tho open mar ket for tho sinking fund and through the federal reserve system's control f rediscount rates, will bo utilized to force ui tin mr.Tket price. It is rnfe to say. in the light cf these con siderations sdono. that Libortys will nrebablv not fall much below 00 ngr.in, cv'.iHe the probabilities favoi their gradual appreciation. But tho other reasons for the r;.- are no less obvious. Tho lcig wnv. of selling on account of business on--barrussmcnt has spent its foivi. Corporations. firms and individual; that have been pinched in tho dolbi tiop period so as to necessitat tho uuick raising cf cash havj realize." on their Liberty. From Henry Ford down to tho laborer out of work there poured an nvpa 'entlv endlosr stieam of 1bee bonis in tho pr.st year and a half. Such a tronendou cashing in process was bound kv de press severely the market price Lvi (hntly that period is about over. With tho lowering of movey rated in Uu past six months, bank accommoda tion became easier. At Cue s:m time the actual yield on LihorUT selling under 00 has grown more attr-.ut'.vo as the yield en other investments de minishe'd; and in industrial ftoeks especially the trade depression ha? so curtailed dividends tint new funds seeking investment have found in the long-neglected government war issues which arc the safest secia ities in tho world, an eportunity well Aoith while.

It was pronouueed the best service 'hold in the church ftv some time. Preliminary to- the rendering of the Pageant the p-tor read ap propriate scripture and Nd in pray er. This was followed :with u. hymn by the congregation, "Publish. (Had Tidings." The children of the iV.issior. Band sang a song, "We are !: Mis sionary Rand." A recitation by little "IMUy" Warlick and an exercise by four little girls "Grandmother" were features of the service.

The ushers for the service were Misses Mabel Miller, Lula Fry, Sal lie Rumgamer and Mrs. J. D. Thomason. The pageant was gotten up under the direction of Mrs. Russell Robin son and Mrs. W. W. Revo. The church decorations for the occasior were beautiful in every way. The offering was for missions. It was a very instructive and impressive ser vice altogether. HUDSON AND WIFE TO FACE TRIAL FOR MURDER TODAY TIIK COMPOSER OF "HANSEL AND GKETEL" S pi i igf i eld Republican. Kniflbert Humperdink, who died yesterday at Neu Strehlitz at the age ' f was best known and will bo bn.'e-t remembered by his two folk lore o;,ors, "Hannel and Gretel" and "Kovnigskindor.". tho latter of which h-id,its first porfi.'rmanco (11)10) in New York. He wa, a man of much talent: but of modest nature and his work wns both stimulated and stifled by Ids immense admiration for Wag ner, with who he was associated in in tho preparation of the "Par sifal" performance at Puireuth. To him as to many of ihis con temporaries, Wagner seemed the last word in opera, r.nd serious compe tition would have appeared a sacri lege, Humperdink found a iwav to ex press both his own very genuine gift and thffl ideas which he had absorbed from Wagner in tho mc'lset form of fairy tales converted into music d".mas. Thus as compared with his gnat contemporary ho wrote light onw.-i, bnt the musical setting of the o simple tales wa elaborate and rv?rly, with an orchestral richness that, or.vos much to Wagner yet ha v. beauty of its own. His "Dream Mus'ir," apart from it c'neratic net ting, has liocome a justly favorite coa t.t piece. To those who like to speculate no on what might have been it is of .n tetest to inquip " bother Dumpord dinek would hi - n a greater ov a lesser musician if ho had not eomo under tho influence of Wagner. Sif:h (lucji'tif'ns and there are riot a few of them in the history literature and tho arts are not easily answered, for imitation itself may be carried to th point where it becomes a sort of originality. The moon is not the less a celestial luminary because it shines with reflected light. With what light Humnerdinck would have shone but fi'r Wagner w can never know. out tne nnnnrtunirv nf imn. Tho word bier suggests sorrow and inc the sixth rlaaa tho vnlnntoor-ro. loss. So, for the matter, does the 'servo service which serves without1 word beer. Hartford Times. pny jn peace time. Albany, da.. Oct. 3. Glen Moore Hudson and bis wifa go on trial hei-e today charged with murder in con nection with the deaths of Mrs. Hud son's two children by a former mar riage, Robert, aged 10 and Isaiah, aged' four, whoso bodies were found at their home on July 5.

Under tho laws of Georgia neither of the defend ants can testify against the other, although each according to the ofti cors has accused the other of the crime.

WATCH MAIN SPRINGS The general public and a big majority of so called Watch-makers consider a watch main spring all right so 1 ng as it is not BROKEN. This is not the case for the average life of the best MAIN SPRINGS money can buy is but TWO YEARS, at the end of, this time they be come "set," as -we say, that is they soften or lose their strength which venders them unfit so far as accurate time-keeping is con cerned. The little un-cven power it still exerts may keep the bal ance running but not in the time keeping shape. Contrary to all other springs, a main spring delivers power, which all other springs absorb power or shocks. A man in the factory has to know thttse things.
