He had called at the home of a man who had the mon ey to give, but how to touch the old gent was another story. The cautious canvasser who was sent out to comb that corner of, the county for money knew his man and was rather crafty in approaching him and feeling his way of approach very cautiously. Be ginning with war talk he related the latest news from Europe and thought thereby to win the man's attention and later to gain admission to his pocket book. Entering into the war talk himself the old gentleman declared that he had seen in his paper a picture of the German Kaiser, and, "By gosh. he declared, "if they-can get close enoueh to him to take his picture, why in thunder don't they catch him The -artful campaigner dodged but stuck.to his victim until he had a con tribution for the war fund. t-ofi, ' Jnrmne todav thev have The flags about this big sale. uauso' Military Committee approves measure to give -President Wilson sole ue rfkTTr. i ' - i measure iu giic , n?
