NO TIME NOW FOR HALF HEARTED MEASURES, SAYS BOND SALESMAN

"This is no time for half-hearted measures," said Burton Haines of the bond department of the National City bank of New York, who has been sent here to aid the Liberty Joan campaign in this district, but who will devote much of his time in assisting the St. Joseph county committee. "I can't say enough against the man who won't aid his government at a time like this." continued i.Mr. Burton. "He is a poor speci- ! men of a man and should be made to do his part in some other way or sent to some other country. I would rather do things than talk. I am here to do what I can to put this campaign 'over.' St. Joseph county wants the honor flag and from the way It looka now we will more than double the quota. I am going to pive the district and county committees the benefit of my several years of experience in bondcelling In getting out and selling them. There is no excuse for any man not buyinz at least one of the $.')0 bonds on the weekly payment plan." On Firday night April 5, speakers and entertainers will be sent from j headquarters at the Indiana club to jail points in the county. The Liberty loan campaign will be opened at (Ireene township Saturday night, April 6 at a meeting called by the Liberty loan committee at the Methodist church in Sumption Prairie. IN CITHOURT City Passes Through First Night of Dry Era Without Mishap. South Bend passed through its first day and evening of the new "dry" era without mishap. Not a drunk charge appeared on the city court docket Thursday morning, which is said to speak well for the temperance drinks that are being sold by the 60 or 70 erstwhile saloons of the city that are remaining open at their old stands. The police Wednesday night were particularly ji: the lookout for Intoxicated persons, but they didn't find any. While many of the saloons in thf west and south ends of the city were open Wednesday night, as well as throughout the day. there was a complete absence of John Barleycorn In any form. Near beer and other soft drinks that are to take the place of the real intoxicant seemed to be in favor among many, but they failed to supply the kick that is necessary to land the drinker at the police station. Few of the down town saloons are open, the proprietors evidently having decided to await the decision of the supreme court in regard tö the constitutionality of the "dry" law which went into effect at 12 o'clock Tuesday night. According to Chief of Police Kline, a close watch is being kept by the police for violations of the blind tiger law. So far no complaints have reached police headquarters in regard to the violation of this law.

DEMAND ACTUAL MERGER OF TWO PHONE SYSTEMS (CONTINUED FBOM PAOK should be installed within 90 days. "Then the central exchange building will have to be remodeled. The plans for this work are practically ready to be placed in the hands of the contractor. Probably 90 days more will be consumed before the building is remodeled and the 900 pairs of wire cable between the two telephone exchanges can be laid. This will make about dx months before the physical unification of the two systems can possibly made." Calls Demand Unreasonable. Mr. Bonds called the demand oe of the petitioners for one telephone charge where there are two tele phones in use, unreasonable, said that they did not realize the cost of maintenance had He that increased. "I am glad they are going to take the matter before the public service commission." he said. "The commission would undoubtedly give us the right to increase the telephone charge from $1.30 a month to $2 a month. Our franchise provides that we shall charge $1.50 a telephone until we have more than 6.000 telephones in service. We now have at least 6,700 in service."
