THEN YOU irAVK BUT ONE JiUSIXESS IN HAND TODAY. The only real business in this great nation for everv individual is to win the war. There is no such thing today as ''your business" and ''my business." It is "our business" our country's business. That business in concrete form is the purchase of more Liberty Bonds. The Hun in his hellishness is attempting to make our people forget the Liberty Loan with his peace talk. Yet he goes on destroying cities and towns and dragging Belgian women and children into captivity and slavery. t To win the war we must continue to buy Liberty Bonds to our utmost beyond our present ability to pay. This company believes that the government of the United States will handle the situation to the best advanage but it most not be handicapped for funds. This company believes that there is no other business so worth while in Gary today as that of buying more Liberty Bonds. This company believes that every loyal patriot must buy beyond his immediate ability to pay. Let no private enterprise no selfish concern of our own no individual undertaking turn us from absolute concentration of the successful promotion of this Fourth Liberty Loan to a tremendous over-subscription. THINK have YOU bought bonds to your UTMOST LIMIT?

All that whiskey does is rnkke it worse, he said. Drinking has become common among men who seldom touched liquor because of the belief that whiskey would prevent the disease. One firm reports it has been oripple.l for a week, not by men ill with influenza, but by employes full of West Hammond booze.

Robert I., iiowze, is , "a real division a shooting outfit." j Hun killing the one tiling required j to win the war will be this division's t specialty, for whi n it shoots with rilb, j cannon or machine gun it hits the mark. In its year at Hattiesburg it shot away; many thousands of rounds of ammuni-I tion and demonstrated, again quoting its commander, "it's a shooting out jit." The Thirty-eighth has bad more training on this side of the Atlantic than most any other division which has gone before it and should be ready for action within a very short time after it arrives "over there." While at Camp Shelby it engaged in division maneuvers and attacks. The infantry made repealed practice attacks with the artillery laving down a real barrage a few hundred vards in front, advancing with the infantry advance. The artillery fired thousands of rounds of live ammunition in both day and night practice, and. according to all reports, did some remarkable shooting. Gary Man's Great Work.
