s Arserting that without this vast sura *we cannot lick the kaiser," tne seeretary made a special appeal for the subscriptions of corporations and wealthy individuals, as returns from the Third Liberty Loan indicated that wealthy corporations and persons of large means had not responded "commensurate with their ability to help.**

He pointed out that of the 18,000,000 Americans who subscribed for the last loan, m)y 22,500, including corporations, bought'Tbonds iB excess #f |J 0,000. "It would be preposterous,1* he said, "to say that there are only 22,500 men, women and corporations in America able to lend more than $10,000 each to their government in Liberty Bonds."

liONOCW. Sept 25.—There ts good reason to believe that the program adopted by the social democratic faction of the reichstag at its meeting on Monday was not only inspired by the German government but actually erabodies Germany's peace terms, according to Rotterdam advices to the Telegraph. it is pointed out 1st tfce dtatttteh that the part of the program referring to international arrangements as distinct from internal reforms was discussed soon after the failure of the German offensive and when it became apparent that Germany's prospects were hopeless,

The resolutions adopted by the social democratic party induced the unrestricted endorsement of the reichstag peace resolution of July 1917. It also declared in favor of Germany joining a league of nations based on a peaceable settlement of all disputes and general disarmament.

There were non-committal declarations on the restoration of Belgium on an understanding regarding indemnities and on the restoration of Serbia and Montenegro and a declaration that the peace treaties of Brest-Lltorsk and Bucharest must not hinder the conclusion of peace. It Was urged that civil administration over all occupied territories be given upon the conclusion of peace to democratic parliaments which had to be established forthwith.

Autonomy for Alsace and Lorraine was also provided for in the resolution, which also declared for universal, equal, secret and direct suffrage for all the German federal states.

It is said that the Prussian landtag will be dissolved if suffrage does not result without delay from deliberations o£ the^onxmittee ..of pie upper house. i

NEW SOCIAL1 LECTURE LEAGUE

It reads like a Story Book," is the way one of America's most happily married society leaders opened the subject of her remarks on Hair Culture, at the first annual lecture of her newly inaugurated Course on Timely Topics at her home on the Hudson just outside of New York City. "I have been a great outdoor enthusiast an my life aad I make It a rale to do without my hat whenever possible, both in the daytime as well as evening. Jack, my husband, some years ago remarked that I would have to probably give up my running about bareheaded now that I was getting a bit gray. But I am not to be outdone simply by a few or many gray hairs. I went right to the most reliable authority I could get on the subject. The result was I avoided putting a lot of harmful dyes on my hair and I began using a Hair Color Restorer called Q-'Ban and in no time Jack ha/1 to confess he didn't understand how my hair got so beautiful. Was I dressing it different, or what? "You may rest assured I haven't told him anything about it, although he very often remarks my hair certainly does look fine. Q-Ban is our little secret."—Adv.

The process of closing in on SH Quentin was continued by the British who made progress in the Gri court neighborhood and also in the Selincy region west of St. Quentin.

ALLIES MAKE-PROGRESS.

Inereaied Enemy Res&tlnce at Stl Quentin Fails To Check Haig. PARIS, Sept. 25.—In the encircling of St. Quentin the allied armies are making further progress against increased enemy resistance.

Northwest of St. Quentin the British have followed up the allied success of yesterday in which the British and French made further gains toward the town from the west and are pushing forward in the direction of the northwestern suburbs. .•

Heavy fighting li 'taJrfng ftf' the region of Gricourt, less than three miles north-northwest, and Selency, two and one-half miles northwest. The British are advancing despite counterattacks by the Germans, w:ho were repulsed with severe losses.

On the French sector to the south only the artillery has "been activc. Between the Ailettc and the Aisne the French have repulsed German attacks in the important territory about Moisy farm, at the weatesn end of the Chemin des Dames.

Aerial and artillery activity has increased markedly on the American sector southwest of Metz, but no infantry engagement has resulted. Both the American and German airmen and gunners are busy, the artillery paying special attention to cross roads and troop formations within range.

MORALE NOT SHAKEN.

Americans Find No Direct Evidence That Germans Are Weakening. AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS IN FRA^NCE, Tuesday, Sept. 24.—(By the Associated Press.)—Concrete information obtained from thousands of prisoners taken by the Americans in recent operations does not ^/Vidicate' an appreciable breakdown of German morale, accord lug to examining office rA. It is true that individuals occasionally say they are glad they are captured and that they are tired of fighting, hungry and badly treated, but officers point out that the same is possibly true of allied prisoners taken by the Germans after several days of bombardment-

It is explained that a man's morale is naturally at the lowest ebb at.- then moment of capture and is usually shaken by fighting, exposure, fatigue and possibly the lack of food. At such times men are inclined to say things which they would retract after rest and nourishment. Great value, therefore, is not placed on prisoners* utterances reflecting on the true conditions in the German army and among the people. At any rate, the authorities say the number of Germans uttering such sentiments is not great.

Tuesday's total was swelled by the receipt of three $100,000 subscriptions, putting the second day's work far ihcad of Monday's. Every worker of the organization is on edse for Wednesday's work hoping to catch up with the schedule arranged for the week, which calls for collections amounting to $750,000 per day. That average will meaa "over the^ top" by Saturday night "While the various canvassing committees have been unable to make any accurate report, partial reports submitted by the chairmen show that the work is being pushed in every nook and corner of the county and that the response is generous but not quite up to expectations. Everyone must remember that now is the time to "Buy the Limit."

Women Are Active.

The woman's committee has not yet made a complete report of the work done in the school districts, but reports received from separate districts would indicate that they have more than held up their share of the work. A meeting of the executive and district chairmen of this committee is to be held at the Chamber of Commerce at 3:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, and plans made for speeding up the work. Mrs. R. E. Lee, chairman of the women's city committee, is determined to have her co-workers make a complete canvass of their territory before Saturday.

The section of the coal committee which has been working among the operators has reported $127,600 with considerable territory yet to cover. The manufacturers committee already has a total of $104,550, the employes of the Highland Iron and Steel company subscribing for $83,000 Of this

Td like to buy my wife (or my mothet) a new Heater," w§ bear men say often, "but I can't afford it just now." Our answer is always this: With coal so scarce and so expensive and living costs so high, you can't afford not to have a modern, efficient, fuel-saving Heater in your home.

Don't fool yourself that you are "saving moneys by Hanging on to the old stove. Perhaps yon ate burning a third more fuel than you need to burn certainly your wife or your mother is wasting her piycious time and energy, perhaps running herself down physicallyt fxtuggling with that old stove.

The time for that sort of thing is past. Today a woman's strength and energy and time are too precious and fuel is too expensive, to squander then struggling with a cranky, wasteful old Heater. You wouldn't stand fox it for a single week if you were tunning a business proposition.

Yet when you come to think of it, do not efficiency and economy begin at home. ... As a matter of urgent economy, invest in a modern, efficient fuel* saving Heater for your home at once. When you see what a differ* ence it makes you will wonder why you didn't do it months ago!
