And Will Be If Every One Doe* His or Her Duty. Indiana’s quota in the 68 counties comprising a part of the seventh federal reserve district for the coming Victory loan is 381,562,500. Jasper county's quota Is 3275.000, which ought to be easily raised if .every one takes hold and subscribes their bit. Benton county’s 'quota is 3563,000; Lake, 35,300,000; Newton, 3376,000; Porter, 3581,000; Starke, 390,000; Pulaski, 3200,000, and White, 3563,[otfO. z As an investment proposition 'thia Victory loan promises to be 'the most attractive of any of the war series the government fans offered, and every one who can possibly do so should take a few -of these bonds. The government very wisely placed the various issues of its war 'bonds out among the common people, which has had the effect of making those who purchased bonds more patriotic in the fact that they feel more than ever that they are a part of this government and have a financial Interest therein. The 'owner of a Liberty bond is not going to turn Bolshevik very soon or by act or utterance attempt to overthrow the government in which be owns securities, and therefore he feels a more patriotic pride in being “one of the “government.” Besides this, it has had a tendency to cause people to be more saving, which is another very commendable feature In distributing the bonds

over the entire country rather than letting them be gobbled up by Wall street syndicates. Jasper county .baa made a moat splendid record in all branches of Iff war work. Let us see to- it that this record le maintained by subscribing for our full quota of this, the last of the war bond i«snes, which money will be used to square up the Anal obligations of our governmenf for its part In the greatest war the world has ever s»en and in which we have gotten off very cheaply indeed, both hi lives lost and dollars spent.
