Our Christmas Club Plan Helps You to Save The method is simple, the effort is slight and the results are amazing. Over S68.000 was paid to our Christmas Club members this year. Practically all have entered the 1917 Club. Why Not You! ' Start saving now with the American Trust Company's 1917 Christmas Club so that the next Holidays will find you prepared. Thousands have learned how easy and practical it is to accumulate a substantial amount by making the small weekly payments regularly. Pennies, nickels, dimes and dollars increase rapidly when laid aside regularly. Money For Next Christmas You should anticipate next season's demands by starting with our Christmas Saving Club this week. Others are joining every day. There is no red tape. Start with a penny or with S5. We will gladly explain the plan, with no obligations to you. Decide to investigate. American Trast Co.

MUNICH, Deo. 22 Havana has mi ff e red frightful war losses. Many examples of a jdtful nature indicate this clearly in the local jre.s. For instance. Mrs. Craef, a widow of Kstcnfeld, has loat live of her nine sons. Two others are crippled for life and the remaining two are still lighting' in Uotunania. A farmer ty the name of Hoeldersch, in Kosenhaupten, j-'ave six sons to the fatherland and all of them have been killed in battle. Of the eight brothers Hartmann o; Leiterberr, who were calle-d to the colors when the war broke out. five have met their deaths, one was badly wounded and only two remain unhurt. A blacksmith by the name ,of Stahla, in Traunerhof has lost six sons. Three of them were killed by the same shell on the Somme. There is hardly a family in the whole kingdom which has not sacri-

! heed two or more of its members

on the battlefields. A remarkable exception is report

ed from Oberkammlach. Wilhelm ) Kienle, the schoolmaster of this village, has sent eight stalwart sons!

to the front, but not one of them has even been hurt, although all have distinguished themselves by bravery and earned the iron cross. Three of the lucky eight brothers have received social decorations frcm King Ludwig and two have been promoted to the rank of otlicers for their daring and skill.

He discovered he had forgotten to load his ri'le and returned home, covering the course back in about half the time lie made goig and minus his hat and gun. Fly was awakened l.y the barking of his six do-'s. He went to a window, looked out and saw them giving battle to the bear, which was in the poultry yard trying to get in

to the henhouse. The battle be- i tween the dogs and bear lasted long i

enough for Fly to dress. Then he grabbed his gun and when the animal saw him the chase down a r-'.j.itry road began. "I never got close enough to tire until we reached some woods." Fly said, "when the bear stopped. Hut gave up after he saw the speed he was up against.'' Mrs. Fly sail the only manner in which she could account for her husband's loss of his hat was that his hair stuck up on end and lifted it off.
