"Long May It Wave." $140,000' is the amount of money Uncle San wants to borrow from Polk county. He'll get it. w. s. s- Polk county has a reputation to maintain. We are not in the habit of falling down on our job, so let's do it now. w. s. s. After the end of the war when ev erything else goes downward in price Liberty Bonds will go upward. Don't you want a few? w. s. s. $140,000 looks like a big , lot of money, but that'll only buy fifty meals for Uncle Sam's boys. It takes lots of money to put the Hun out of business, but we'll do it. i w. a. 2u- Don't forget that Polk county's quota this time is almost four times greater than that of the Third Liberty Loan Drive, so let's lose no time in .subscribing the Whole amount. W. S. S "Hit a man while he's groggy," says Teddy. Sure thing. And now that Germany is in that condition let's paste him hard by oversubscribing the six billions Uncle Sam is asking for. w. s. s. When our boys, come back home what satisfaction it will be for you tc be able to say, "Well, lad, I couldn't go to the front, but I did my duty by subscribing liberally to Libertv Bonds." . w. s. s. "We may all be home by Christmas, s so prepare the fatted goose," says the Red Cross nurse. Here's hoping, and if one fat goose won't do we'll kill the whole blamed flock if we have to dc without a feathr bed next winter. w. s. s. "Give us guns, ammunition and food, and we'll lick the Hun," said the brave young man who addressed the people in Tryon, last week. It take? money to buy all these things. Loar Uncle the money to do it with. w. s. s. "Tell th mothers over there that we are looking after their boys," is , the way the little Red Cross nurse puts it. Now, then let's send word tc the nurse that we intend looking af ter all of them by subscribing, to the Fourth Liberty Loan. w. s. s. Mr. Miller said in his. address in Tryon, that all American troops are -'referred to as Yanks, except the col ored troops and they were called In dians. Let it go at that. Makes no difference what von rail tViom v.Qr wiU be found in the front ranks at tne nnish. ' w. s. s Everywhere the allies have contin- ' 1 their &ains since our fast Issue.

Believing that in the struggle of morale against "kultur" the American army has every advantage that will insure sucoesa, the Jewish organiza tion is making its chief issue the stiffening of mental and moral fibre among the soldiers of the Hebrew faith. The call for workers is urgent and rabbis, profoasioaal men, journal ists, sottial workers and others are entering the service of the Jewish Welfare Board to make up the 400 workers aeeded to fill the ranks. AMERICAN SOLDIERS ANXIOUS FOR BOOKS American Library Association Pro vidlng -Reading Matter for Boys On Battle Fronts Despite the fact that the ocean transportation facilities are being tax ed to the utmost, the task of provld- iag reading matter for the bojs in the treneaes ' is being handled with an efficiency and ditpatch that is sur prising even to those who are closely in toaca with the situation. The American Library Association, which baa 'shouldered the responsibil ity of collecting books, magazines and newspapers by the millions in every city and town throughout the country. Is distributing this huge quantity of reading matter to the men in France through the T. M. C. A., the Red Cross, the Knights of Columbus and the Salvation Army. SIX Y. 7. C. A.
