Entered at the postofflce In Decatur, Indiana, as second-class matter. Victory bonds will be worth more than you pay for then;. This is not a boost to induce you to buy them but a hard cold fact recognized by every financier in the country and no doubt anticipated by the men who worked it out. The bonds pay 4% per cent and are not taxable for the average man. They can also be converted into 3% per cent bonds exempt from surtax and there is the rub. Surtaxes perhaps do not bother a single individual in Adams county, but the ricn corporations, insurance companies, nJUionarus % always looking for tax free investments will nn<t them so attractive that they are sure to sell at a premium almost before they are issued. Y’ou are not helping any one more than yourself by buying Victory bonds. Go to it and get a part of the harvest. Everything is in readiness for the big Volunteer Day for the Victory Loan next Monday. The workers are delighted with tile prospects. The war clouds have lifted and through the break coir es the sunshine of peace. The days of prosperity and happiness are just ahead. It's up to you to make possible the greatest era ever known in this or any other land. You give your answer Monday. What will it be? You should gladly and cheerfully subscribe for all the bonds you can pay for. The banks have gone on record. They will loan you the money for six months at the same rate of interest the bonds earn. You take no chances and you show the right spirit Be a volunteer. Wear a button that shows it. m The leaders who put over the tax law have discovered that it will not place.on the duplicates millions of dollars worth of intangible property, but instead it will increase your tax p.bout fifty per cent No wonder 1 special session is wanted for some correction ought to be made if the ■men who did it expect to carry any 1 weight as politicians next year. There’s another day coming it seems. A factory that will employ six hundred men and build a million dol- 8 lar plant, need homes for its people, o P*> out more than half a million dol- p lars annually tor labor, would like to locate.

Foreshadowings Where once they walked and heard the whippor-will * And felt what all may feel, but none disclose, Fond memories of lovers wander still . In that sweet shade that only moonlight throws. Soft memories keep watch in grove and dell. Embowered nooks and paths that curve and stray. For true-souled maids who bravely said farewell And gallant lads who bravely marched away. So they walk, dear dream?, on heath and shore, Through billowy field and under v sheltering tree. Not wistful ghosts that whisper, “Nevermore,” But gladder wraiths of what again - shall be! ( —Arthur Guiterman, in Life. “If death should come with his cold, - hasty kiss, . j Along the trench or in the battle strife. I’ll ask of death no greater boon than this. That it should be as wonderful as C life.” Rev and Mrs F. F. Thornburg and son. Dwight, and Mr. and Mrs. W. F. ~ Beery and son. Howard, were guests S >f Mr. and Mrs. C. 11.
