AND BUN-TELEGRAM luWIsbed Every Evening Except Sunday, by Palladium Printing Co. 3anaram Building, North Ninth and Sailor Streets. Entered at the Post Office at Richmond.

Protecting Your Liberty Bonds The thefts of many Liberty bonds and their destruction by fire suggests the thought that it is poor policy to invest your money in a good inVestment unless you intend to safeguard it. Liberty bonds and other valuable papers should not be kept at home. The only safe place for a Liberty bond is in a safety deposit box of a vault Hhat Is burglar and fire proof. Placing your bonds and valuable papers in Secure keeping also removes the temptation of parting with them when you read a crafty advertisement which holds out the promise of golden Rewards on highly speculative investments. It Iso guards against handing them over easily to m oily tongued wildcat stock promoter. The Execution of Gen. Angeles The execution of Gen. Angeles, an artillery xpert who perfected the French 75 millimetre irun, making it the most efficient artillery piece

in the world, again calls attention to the chaotic '

condition in Mexico. Carranza seems to be making little headway

toward restoring peace and tranquility in the; southern republic. Hardly have we read with;

satisfaction that Mexico is returning to the ways of peace and her people dropping the rifle for the plow when a new outrage shocks us.

Angeles was reputed to have been a friend of j

Villa and never fully recognized the present government . The specific charge against him was rebellion. It is said that he was a friend of America. It is regrettable that internal conditions in Mexico cannot be restored to a normal basis without a continuation of bloodshed. One would believe that years of internal strife, marked by murder and arson, had finally worn out the fight

ing spirit of the Mexicans and stilled the desire i

for executions and massacres. Missionaries have reported that in their opinion Mexico can be saved only by Christian education. No one denies the beneficent value of this training, but most of us doubt if it can be applied on a scale comprehensive enough to reach the whole population and to still the animosities that have been engendered. A stable government, perhaps, is what Mexico needs most. Executives in whom all factions will have confidence and whose decisions they will respect, will go a far way in solving the problem. So long as the executive heads rule by virtue of their military strength alone and not because they were duly elected to office, no progress toward a stabilization of conditions can be expected.

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK

GEORGE FITCH This la a brief tribute to a friend whom I loved. There Is no particular reason why I should write it at this time, excepting that any time s an appropriate time to pay a tribute to character. George Fitch was a humorist He was also a magnificent friend. Added to this, he was a real American in type, fine and clean and noble. My friend died only a few years ago at the age of thirty-eight. And It is largely because I miss his Inspiring Influence that I have the desire to teU how splendid he was. His career bad hardly started, yet millions had laughed at his incomparable Siwash stories and little dally essays. Here are a few of the things that made George Fitch great He bad a wholesome mind. There was nothing coarse about his thinking. His heart wasvery mellow ha felt, not la terms of dollars, but of human need. I used to try very hard to be "funny" to Georg-e juet to see him b mile! for be had a smile that was both whimsical and fascinating. His humor was like fresh rain. And it roUed out of him as naturally as air is breathed. But the big thing about George Fitch was that he represented things. He believed In being loyal to his friends. And In business relations. aU the money in the world couldn't buy him from an agree, meat or move from him a single one of his principles. Shortly before his death. George Fitch was elected to the state legislature of Illinois. And there he made a creditable record. For. you see he was genuine and that sort stand upright, no matter where Fou put them. George Fitch was simple in his tastes, and Intensely democratic. His home life was beautiful He was a good citizen In his town. Everybody that knew him. loved him. And so he is missed greatly now. But be lived a mighty worth while life. I wish that they hadn't needed him "up there," so soon!

I Syndicate. Inc.) VICTORIA. The regal namo Victoria has a fitIs tlng origin since it comes from the Jat!n Vlnco, meaning to conquer. - ' Vincentlus was an early masculine p -Jiame borne by two characters of the l fTenth Persecution, and later by one p kf the great ecclesiastical authors at f TLarlus in Provence. VIncente Terier pud Vincente de St. Paul added honors ' fo the name, but it was Victor, the . dast participle, which gave rise to Vicf lore In Italy. - I The first Victoria was a Roman v ylrgln martyred in the Grecian Persef fcutlon, from whose name came the ; i Italian Victoria, borne by the admiral .able daughter of the colonne from t whom Franco and Germany seemed to have learned it, since after her time,

Victeir and Victorine became common In France. From Germany direct ame Victoria, which is considered the national name. Queen Victoria of England and the Justly famous "Victorian age" gave s-rise to the many cities named Victoria which sprang up under the wide

weep or English rule. , ' Queen Victoria of Spain adds one & more claim to the regularity of the jstame. It is fitting that the ruby, king of precious stones, should be the jawel I l-assigned as Victoria's own. Its inI vextincuishable flame, as suggested g ;by lt3 color, asserts that its inner fire .cannot be quenched. It is said to prejferve the mental and bodily health of ts wearer, remove evil thoughts, con- : txol high temper, reconcile disputes, uid dispel pestilential infection. To dream of rubies signifies unexpected quests. . ' Friday Is Victoria's lucky day and three her lucky number. Wordsworth translated from the Italian of Michael Angela a charming poem to Victoria: "Yes, hope may with my strong desire keep pace, And I be uiuieluded, unbetxayed; For if of our affections nona find grace In eight of Heaven then wherelor hath God made The world which we inhabit?

PROHIBITING OSCULATION. After tobacco has been wiped out, and dominoes and tiddledywinks have gone the way of all sinful things, it seems reasonably sure that kissing will be eliminated from the list of pleasant recreations. But there has come from New Zealand a traveler with the joyful tidings that there will still be in existence a chaste salute v.-hich may be employed, at least until it is prohibited by law. It seems that the Maori women

of New eZaland know nothing j about kissing. Their education has i

been neglected. Nose rubbing is their form of salutation. This form of greeting is not confined to the women, but is practiced by the men and is also co-educational. All the joy will not be taken out of life if sweethearts can still rub noses. But if the lady is all rouged and powdered for the party, it may cause a misunderstanding. The spectacle of two American gentlemen meeting on the street and rubbing noses may be entertaining enough to repay us for some of the pleasures we will have lost by that time. But so far as the ladies are concerned,, it is doubtful if anything will ever take the place of the kiss, and young

women will bo smuggling them

him the kind of slips I wanted, so he slipped down stairs and got the slips and slipped them to me. I slipped him the money, and asked him to give me a slip so that I could slip it to the cashier. He slipped me the slip and I slipped out. and on arrival at the office , slipped the slip to the cashier, who slipped me the cash, so I slipped out, and this closed a very slippery business transaction.

A well-known painter had a fixed rule that none of his pupils was to be allowed to smoke in his studio. One day, however, he came into the room and noticed that one of the pupils had a lighted cigaret in his fingers, which ho was endeavoring to conceal. With a style of somewhat
