Marietta Man Largest Holder of U. S. Securities in His County. Declzree Country! Can Have Whatever He Has Whenever It De- sires It. If William Hohenzollern depended 4 on Americans of German birth to do his work in this country he would never have picked August Heckert of Marietta, Minn. | Although born in Germany, Heckert stands today as the_prize practical patriot of Lac Qui Parle county with $25,000 to his «redit in } Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps i and Certificates of Indebtedness. In 2 addition to the cash’ investments, he has loaned his 24-year-old son to Uncle Sam and the youth is serving his country on the dreadnaught Kear- x sarge. Mr. and Mrs. Heckert have also toiled unceasingly for the various war activities in thelr home town and county, - Chairman J. H. Hayden of Madison is authority for the statement that the Heckerts are the largest holders of government securities in Lac Qui Parle county. And Mr. Heckert has not ben silent concerning the prosecution of the war. He has won himseif a host of enemies} among cld neighbors for the things he has told them about their attitude Mr. toward the land of their adoption. | The culmination came recently when Ferdinand Kahlbrenner, also of Marietta, brought suit for $10,000) against the. prize patriot of thej county. The suit followed a signed article in a Marietta paper. in which] Mr. Heckert aired his views regarding the refusal of many of his townsmenu to buy Liberty Bonds and War Savings Stamps. The jury did not deliberate long over the evidence and returned a verdict for Mr. Heckert. \ “The land of my adoption ts the} only land that I recognize,” Mr. Heck- ert said in telling his experiences toj A. R, Rogers, Chairman of the Ninth District War Loan Organization. “This government has made it possible for me, to succeed in business and wh: i ever I have, the United States ¢ have whenever it desires it. The jury} that gave me the verdict apparently! thought that a man who bought five! or six times as many Liberty Bonds as his allotment called for, could no: be very disloya’.” | “The case of Mr. Heckert,” said| Chairman Rogers, “is proof that the} majority of American citizens of Ger- man birth are loyal to their adopted country.” Chairman Hayden of Madison de clared that the story of Mr. Heckert should have the greatest circulatiGn ip 4 the coming Victory Loan campaign. » “The story should bring shame to many.persons who have been evading their full duty to their country,” Mr, Hayden said, THINK IN INTEREST—SAVE—— MAKE JOINT SWEAR-OFF , é OF FOOLISH SPENDING Some Pieces. of Good, Advice as Pos- sible Keynotes for Coming Thrift Campaigns. Here are some of tire pieces of good advice L, B. Franklin, National Di- rector of the War Loan Organization, has given to War Savings Stamp workers as possible keynotes for thrift campaigns: We do not want to make a na- rE tion of tightwads but we do want to eliminate. thé darn fool waste. Spend wisely and save your Money so that you can go into business for yourself. Spend less and pay off the mort- Y gage or send your boy to college. q Put a little Joy into saving. A French housewife can feed a | family on what an American family wastes. “When a man ‘swears off’ smoking or ices cream or something like that he is more apt to make good in his resolution if he has a fellow resolver, someone else who is undergoing the same denial with the same purpose in , mind,” Mr. Franklin said. “It is a joint ‘swearoff.’ This is the thing i we want the American people to do, i make a joint swearoff of foolish spend: | ing. And of course we want them to| : invest the saving in War Savings! i Stamps, | “We are going to get the ‘joint! swearoff’ idea through the War Sav-! ings societies. Each member of a so-| ciety will be a War Savings Stamp| buyer and each will want to hold up e. his end, especially when he knows bi that every other member is doing his " share.” This mild compulsion by public opinion as it exists in the society ‘wil! this year take the place of the quota and allotment system of selling War Savings Stamps which was used last year. The W. S. S. buyer is tobe made to want to save as much as he can, rather than to feel that he must save: such and such an amount. Mr. ‘4 -Franklin said’ the quota system of 2 War Savings Stamp sales was.not in| é use this year. 4 The national director made it cicit that the appeal is still to patriotism as well as to thrift and self-interest but with the patriotic ‘appeal: changed from that ‘ofva battte ‘crisis:to that of the sturdier and less spectacular loy- alty of the man who is willing to help * his country under any and all circum. stances.
