They will be on sale at the local ! post office in denominations rang- | ing from S25 to $1,000. and will be j supplemented by postal savings' stamps ranging in price from 10 j cents to $5.00. The bonds will be sold at 75 per cent of their face ; value?that is a S25 bond will notu- I ally cost $13.75?and they will ma- i ture in ten years. They can be re- j deemed at cost, plus interest, at any ' time dhl'im/ the ten veni neviod i By this plan, similar to the Liberty l oan drfy< of the last war, the government not only hopes to raise several biliion dollars for tls defense program, but also hopes to curb possible inflation. G r e a t 1;. ncreasod purchasing power, renting suddenly as a Jesuit of defense orders and defense jobs, is apt to send prices skyrocketing unless part of that money is put back into government control. Furthermore, the government considers it important that the people be given an opportunity to participate in financing the defense program. Defense savings bonds seem to be the right answer?particularly when they will be offered at a fair rate of interest and will bo easy to redeem any time we get hard up for funds. Series of larger bonds will be offered to big investors and bankers, but the small 10-year bonds and savings stamps are being issued primarily to attract the people as a whole?from the poorest family in town to the richest. In May,-a drive will be started to promote the sale of these bonds. But with most of us it won't take a lot of persuading. We know now that the government is legally bound to spend billions on defense? we know that cveiv one of us must eventually contribute to financing That program. And most of us would prefer to do our part in a voluntary, patriotic way than to be forced to pay the tax collector later on. TRESPASSING One of the county's good farmers, who is continually hampered in his efforts to protect the squirrels and birds on his farm, by the inroads of unwelcome hunters, asks The Democrat to publish this section of law regarding trespassing: "If any person shall, without having first obtained permission of the owner, hunt with gun or dogs on the land of another, or if he shall fish or attempt to catch fish from said lands after being forbidden either personally or by notices written or printed, posted at the court house door and at three places on said land, he shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and be fined not exceeding $50.00 or imprisoned not ex- I ceeding thirty days." 'I U. S. border patrolmen recentlyapprehended a new type of smuggler who "handled" false teeth from Canada. Not having teeth of his own. me man would cross the border. buy a false set, slip them into his mouth and sneak across the border to sell them here. lie was finally caught when the border police forced open his mouth and discovered the teeth did not fit.?Fact Digest.

The present world crisis with multi-millions of men and women, boys and girls out of touch with God demands special prayer. The need is so tremendously great that outhursts of intercessory prayer can be heard anywhere. Therefore may we all unite our concerted efforts in at least an hour a day of prayer during the first week of May that God will give an old-time revival throughout the whole world. Pray until your prayers go through. Pray until the revival stnris in vrair iioi'-t 11.--,,. until the flame reaches your neighbor's heart, and until the whole community feels it?the city, the state, the nation, the world. The more sincerely you pray for the unfortunate ones, in proportion, the more will be the blessings of God enriching your own soul. Therefore, let us all pray and believe God for a definite result.
