Last Sunday, not waiting tor the liberty bond campaign to open, they spent the day in sell- ing bonds. The total for the day was in excess of $6,000. As team members of the general! committee, they have done a great work, just as they did in the Red Cross and upon other occasions. It is} getting to be a well known slogan in| Bismarck that “you can depend upon the U. C. T.” The loyalty resolutions adopted at the council meeting Saturday evening show the brand of their sterling Amer- i s They, like thousands of oth- ers in the state, are disgusted with the luke-warm attitude of the administra- tion and the pacifist blunders of Gov- ernor Frazier. Minot, Bismarck and Grand Forks councils have shown their colors. They have hewed to the line and in- tend to show to the world that they are heart and soul behind the nation, bohind the boys at the front and be- hind the families that must serve and bear in silence. i North Dakota is proud of its VV. C. T.} Its honor is safe in their hands. Their action will assist greatly in wiping out the stains on the escutch- eon, placed there by Townley, Gronna and Frazier. BUNK PATRIOTS. By Berton Braley. I] prefer the slacker to the bunk patriot. For at least the slacker is frankly dodging his duty, while the bunk pa- triot is trying to get by with loud} promise and no performance. Who is the bunk patriot? | He is the corner grocer who drapes the flag all over the front of his shop and puts up his prices 50 per cent} “on account of the war;” the restau-| rant keeper who serves Hoover's war rations at enhanced schedules; the business man who subscribes to two liberty bonds and gets it back imme: | diately with 200 per cent added from the public he is supposed to serve: the landlord who sends out notices of increased rents on paper with an) embossed flag in the corner. | He is the employer who talks about the “disloyal and unpatriotic man” that strikes for another dollar a day to meet increased cost of liv-! ing due to the activities of other Sunk | patriots, and in the next breath de-! work: r| he was losing his chances of growing ) Classes as dil as interferring with | | the war, James K.

Among those senators Washington! tors love. the kaiser because of large voting populations in their districts who are of German ancestry and who, these senators believe, are German in sympathy. So in a small way the pro- German senator may be said to repre- sent a small anti-American or pacifist ; section of his constituents. But there appears to be no such xcuse for Vardaman. Mississippi's population is so largely black that a heavier burden than most states bear has been placed on its white population. Nevertheless, in many Mississippi communities the selective service act is inoperative, BECAUSE THE ENTIRE QUOTA HAS BEEN FILLED BY VOLUN- TEERS. Moreover, the brand of loyalty in Mississippi generally, seems to be of the superior kind. Everywhere in the state the people are aroused to the necessity of doing their bit. And they are doing it. pe LIBERTY BONDS AN INVESTMENT The appeal Ay the people to sub- scribe to the liBerty loan is based on ound business reasons as well as patriotisnr. ' The ordinary ,citizen, with small avings, can make no better invest- ment. Banks have been known to fail; corporations, whose stock is sup: posed to be gilt-edged, have suffered business depression; real estate has depreciiteds qwing to a change in the tide of the city's life. All forms of investing money have some element of hazard. i In liberty loan bonds there is abso- lutely no risk. Each bond is the prom- of the United ‘States government, backed -by.. the entire might and wealth of the nation. This makes the bonds the safest investment in the world. ica At one and the same time each American who buys these bonds helps his country win this war for a right- cous cause, and places his money where it is safe and will work for him. Every man or woman anxious to| save for the rainy day, or for inactive bonds. Every man or woman anxious to! give the child of the family an educa- tion or a nest-egg some years hence should invest in liberty loan bonds. Every man or woman desirous of making money ‘work should invest in liberty loan bonds. Stand by Uncle Sam and Uncle Sam will stand by you. The fellow most interested in our) one Wilhelm Hohenzollern.

NOT AS L ONDERSTAND IT!!! Everett True As a Bond Solicitor WE THEY ARE THE SA INVESTMENT, AS PATRIOTIC AS YOU! ANY LIBERTY ST ae Why You Should Buy a Bond By a Newspaperman Editor's Note: This is the sec- ond in a series of arguments pre- pared at the suggestion of Mr. H. P. Goddard. 1. By sw scribing to the liberty loan your are protecting the credit of the United States government, and you are protecting your own credit, you are protecting your own busi- ness, you are protecting every inter- est you have in life and property. 2. Are you not patriotic enough, even though you have no money laid away, to deny yourself some luxuries or to work a little harder and save a dollar or two a week, purchasing a bond on the installment plan? 8. The efficiency of the men at the front—your boy mayhe—depends up- on the support you give this loan. He needs your dollars more than any- thing else. 4. It is not especially pa buy a gilt edge defense curity backed by the resources of the rich- est nation in the world a id, drawing four per cent. Particularly: s0 when you consider that these Ponds are insurance against the Huns and sha- dow Huns who seek, to destroy the republic. 5. One liberty, bond will equip a soldier at the front. That is when you buy a $50 ond you merely loan Uncle Sam enough to purchase the sinews of war. 6. When you read that a Chicago millionaire has subscribed -4wo million to the loan, don't: lay down the paper and say, “That lets me out.” Your viewpoint is wrong. Each must give what he is able to testify to the faith that is in him. It is not a rich man’s war, but a war of all the people of the United States. Don’t be a slacker. Mandan News Bureau GERMAN-AMERICANS LIBERAL BUYERS OF LIBERTY BONDS —— ! Mandan, Oct. 17.—R. S. Johnstone, chairman of the Mandan liberty loan committee, today stated that up to the present time there is about $139,- 000 subscribed in Mandan. ‘That the $150,000 mark will be reached in Man-, dan there seems to be little question. That is $30,000 over the allotment. The Morton county liberty loan com- mittee, of which W. A. Lanterman is chairman, advises that the county will over-subscribe its allotment by fully $100,000. Incomplete reports show that German settlements are subscrib- ing freely to the bond issue. Chairman J. H. Newton, dis chairman of the Twelfth judicial di trict, stated last evening that he was’ unable to give any additional infor- mation for publication other than he was confident that his district will subscribe to its allotment wilfully and that it will over-subscribe its allot- ment to a considerable extent. 4 The Mandan committees today will work the territory near Mandan among the farmers. Last eve ting the coun- try committee had subscrived over $5,000. ‘More solicitors went out to- day, and it is expected even greater results will be obiained today and tomorrow. Morton county is general- ly aroused h the liberty loan cam- paign. and it will easily estavlish one of the best records. ON SERIOUS CHARGE. Mandan, N.
