Want the boys back sooner? Buy al) the war bonds you can. That’s the best way you can help. O—O Buying one 31&.50 bond, if you can afford to do more, does not meet the requirements of the Third War Loan campaign. —o Life is hard these days but It doesn’t help any to complain and lo grumble.

The tax adjustment board has approved the budgets and rate? for the various taxing units of Adams county. Citizens who own property in the various townshipo and towns may rely on the rates as published since it is not believed likely the state board will make any changes.

He is in prison or an asylum, has been taken to Germany or sailed for a foreign port The latest is that he was shot when parachuters attempted to kidnap him Sunday. Please pay your newsboy promptly. He is a little merchant who buy* the papers and sells them t you. If he doesn't get the weekly pay he is up against it when he has to settle. That discourages him and makes the delivery of the paper a serious problem. Please cooperate by paying the boy each week.

Officers of the Fcrt Harrison unit which staged the big war bond show here Monday evening expressed appreciation of the cooperation givin here. They declared II the best they have had any where In their ’our of the state. Worthmail Field was Ideal, the lighting excellent. quarters were first class and the entertainment provided by Adams Post ot the American Legion added to the enjoyment of the visiting soldiers.

Adams county is not buying suf ficii ntiy to meet the quota of 51.334,500. If we fall down it may be necessary to st-nd out special committees as was done during the Liberty loan drives of the first world war. It is hoped, that won’t be required but unless we do better than Is now indicated some drastic action will be required. We must not fall down on this cam palgn to provide the cash with which to support our men and women in service.

The battlefields of Italy are crucial and Americans are fighting day and night as the enemy moves more troops into the territory. It looks like a long, hard struggle that may decide the war. The least we can do Is to back the men there with every dollar we can spare. It's serious right now and we must forget selfish personal affaire to go all out tor the cause If we fall, we but prolong th-

struggle and make it worse for those In fhc home lines as well as those In the battle areas* —<o—o Andrew JeckerHl Hegins, wh. probably holds several world s rectrds tor losing government war contracts through no fault of hla own, haa cotne up with a n-w helicopter which he la trying to sell to the government If Uncle Ssm isn’t Interested.
