WOMAN'S FINANCIAL HELP IS WAR NEED By Mrs. ANTOINETTE FUNK Vice Chairman of the Woman's Liberty Loan Committee. *(Written for the United Press) ‘Washington, June 11.—War today is not built on valor alone. It is built on the close co-operation of all the men and women in the nation. The women of the country must get behind their government. Some- where along the line, they must reach the point of self-denial, either in luxury or in real necessities and [divert the money to support this war, !recognlzlng always that this is a | war for their defense. Every woman who can should buy a Liberty Bond. This is a war that the women of our beloved country may not meet the fate of the women of Belgium. This is a war to insure peace. This is a war against the wrong ideals of government which had their birth in the blasphemous holy alliance. It is a war that can- not be fought without money. Money stands for food; it stands for shel- ter; it stands for medical aid for the soldiers at the front. No woman would deny her personal ministra- tion, but the ministrations must be made through others. Money that we put in Liberty Bonds stands for our tenderness; it stands for our patriotism. Yop are not required to give, only pledged to pay the debt. Women should know that a Liberty Bond is the written promise of the whole United States to pay back the amount invested, plus 33% per cent interest. This in- terest will be paid semi-annually. Liberty Bonds are the safest invest- ment in the world, and hey are not subject, either principal or interest, to any kind of taxation, except the inheritance tax. It is not only a Liberty Bond, but it is a Loyalty Bond. The money thus loaned the government provides for our security; it provides for the welfare of our men at the front; it provides for brave little France and for glorious England, and for Italy, and for all our solendid allies strug- gling to shake off the beast of ambi- tion that sprang at their throats three years ago. TENNIS CLUB GETS CHALLENGE;NOTICES FOR DUES ARE SENT OUT Fifteen Love! Thirty All! Deuce! And the Bemidji Tennic eclub breaks into the limelight. Before a single match has been played, even before the courts are in shape comes a challenge from the Red Lake Agency club to take the local boys in singles, doubles or any other way they want to piay. What are vou going to do ahout it, boys? Play ’'em? Of course. Notices are being sent out to all the local club members to come across with 1917 dues or make room for new members who have been on the waiting list. The dues for the year are $2. The courts are being put into shape and regular practice will be- gin at once. Members who expect to remain members during the pres- ent year should mail their dues to E. H. Denu, secretary of the club, on or before June 20. Those who wish to become members should also notify the secretary and they will be voted on in the order the names come AMERICA FIGHTING (Continued from Page 1.) seeking to obtain pledges the war will end in the restoration of the status quo ante. Imperialism Hust Go. “It was the status quo ante out of which this iniquitous war issued forth, the power of the imperial Ger- man government within the empire and its widespread domination and influence outside of that empire. That status must be altered in such fash- ion as to prevent any such hideous thing from ever happening again. “We are fighting for the liberty, the self-government and the undic- tated development of all peoples, and every feature of the settlement that concludes this war must be .conceived and executed for that purpose. . {“Wrongs must first be righted and then adequate safeguards must ' be created to prevent this being com mitted again. We ought nto to con- sider remedies merely becaiuse they have a pleasing and sonorous sound. “Practical questions can be set- tled only by practical means. Phrases will not ‘achieve the result.' Effec- tive readjustments will, and what- ever readjustments are necessary must be made. But they must fol- low a principle and that principle is plain. Future Peace Aim. ““No people must be forced under sovereignty under which it does not wish to live. No territory must change hands except for the purpose of securing ‘for those inhabit it a fair chance of life and liberty. No indemnities must be insisted on ex- cept those that comstitute payment for manifest wrongs done. No re- adjustments of power must be made except such as will tend to secure the future peace of the world and the fu- ture welfare and happiness of its peoples. “And then the free peoples of the world must draw together in some common government, some genuine and practical co-operation that will, in effect, combine their force to se- cure peace and justice in the dealing of nations with one another. “The brotherhood of mankind must no longer be a fair but empty phrase. “It must be given a structure of force and reality. The nations must realize their common life and ef- fect a workable partnership to se- cure that life against the aggressions of autocratic and’ self-pleasing pow- ers. Blood fer Liberty. “For these things we can afiord to pour out our blood and treasure. For these are the things we have always professed to desire, and un- less we pour out blood and treasure now and succeed, we may never be able to unite or show conquering force again in the great cause of human liberty. “The day has come to conquer or submit. - If the forces of autocracy can divide us, they will overcome us; if we stand together, victory is cer- tain and the liberty which victory will secure. We can afford to be generous, but we cannot afford then or now to be weak or omit any single guarantee of justice and security.” NEW PROPRIETOR OF REX HAS ARRIVED: LONG EXPERIENCED Albert Harris of Moline, IIl.,, has arrived and taken possession of the Rex theater which he purchased last week from E.

TAFT SPEAKS AT PITTSBURGH (By United Press) Pittsburgh, June 11.—All sessions of the Forty-fourth National Con- ference of Charities and Corrections, now meeting at the William Penn hotel, adjourned at noon today so the 2,500 or more delegates could hear William Howard Taft speak on “International Adjustment After the ‘War.” . The former president’s ad- dress occupied the attention of the entire conference this afternoon to the exclusion of all other business. At the general session tonight, ‘Wilfred S. Reynolds, superintendent of the Illinois Children’s Home, Chi- cago, will speak on ‘“‘Children.” * A Bornean Weapon. The Bornean mandau, or “head tak- er,” is a modification of the Burmese dah. It is a heavy, thick bladed cut- lass, from twenty to thirty inches long, and the edge is ground from the right side only, the left side being forged slightly concave. The blade is also slightly curved to the right, so that the cutting action of the weapdn is like that of an enormous gouge. Only two strokes can be dealt with the mandau— from right to left downward and left to right upward.—Chambers’ Journal Banknotes and Currency. A banknote is a promissory note is- sued by a bank or banking company, payable to the bearer on demand. These notes are secured by United States bonds deposited in the United States treasury. Currency may be defined as that which is given or taken as having or representing value, such as an aggre- gate of coin, bills and notes and other circulating mediums; that which is in general use as money. Banknotes are ‘currency, but a great deal of currency is money other than banknotes. Pillsbury’s Chess Feat. On Jan. 26, 1901, Harry N. Pillsbury visited Kansas City, where he played twelve games of chess and three games of checkers with local devotees of those games. The gaumes were, of course, carried on simuluaneousiy. Pilisbury, sitting with his back to the boards, the moves of the players were called out to bim. He would {mmediately call back the name of his own piece, specifying on which of the sisty-four squares it was to be placed, and won every game. In Chicago, in 1900, Pilisbury played sixteen simultaneous games blindfolded in four hours and fifty-five minutes, winning twelve, drawing three and losing one. ‘When starting a locomotive puffs five times to one revolution of the driving wheel.
