HERS n 10 THE EOS Special Appeal oil Behalf of Liberty Loan Issue is Sent Out by Washington Representative of National Grange. Every farmer in America is expected to support the Victory Liberty Loan, says Thomas C. Atkeson, tht HVashington representative of the National Grange Patrons of Husbandry, who has sent the following letter to the officers of every farm grange in the United States: 44 'Victory Liberty' is the slogan foi the new loan. The drive is to begin April 21. for the sale of six billion -dollars in Victory Liberty Bonds. These two words visualize all that is best in American spirit. American farmers must respond to this appeal. "What the farmers of America did in sacrifice and in accomplishment, in food production and in bond buying during the war is a part of the record It is a war record of which any class may be proud. It must be made go^d now by meeting the obligations which result from the outpouring of American strength which conquered the nf Tihprt.v and civilization. Time to Get Ready. "It is time to get into this Victory Liberty Bond campaign. No appeal of the war has gone unanswered to the full limit when brought to the attention of the farmers. Men, money, 'wheat, other food?no matter what the obstacles or the difficulties?the answer has been full and certain. The answer must be the same in this coming drive. "Millions of soldiers must be brought liome; thousands of sick must be cared for, thousands of wounded and mutilated must be made ready for future usefulness. We armed a nation and mobilized its resources into a war ma' chine of such tremendous potential power that our enemies surrendered rather than face it. and thereby months or years of fighting and thousands of lives, wefe saved.

' GRATEFUL FOR COLD WATER Thirsty Fighters Went on Their Way Blessing the Thoughtfulness of That Red Cross Worker. There was plenty of water in X, but a tin mug of it was more deadly than a German machine gun. It's impossi- J ble to push two or three hundred thou-1 sand soldiers back and forth over a locality, especially when half of them are Germans and there isn't time to clean up after they have been defeated, and keep the water supply unaffected. And when, as is the case often, the water wasn't very pure to begin with, it's not at all wise to dally with the idea of drinking it. But what cnn von do when vou've been out all day fighting and pursuing Germans and your canteen's empty and the roof of your mouth feels like a vulcanized scrubbing board? That's the thought that came to a j lied Cross field service man during | the hottest fighting in August. It was hot in two senses. The bullets flew j and the sun melted. And the Red ; Cross man took out Ins largest marmite and filled it with water that was cool and purified. He kept it full all day aud every soldier that passed that way had a drink of water. It was water they wanted just then. A little initiative on the part of one man made the soldiers as he himself put it "absurdly grateful." But after struggling across fields and roads all day in the hot sun, well?well men do become absurdly grateful for a drink of cool water.?From a Red Cross Scrapbook. Smashing All Records.

That, however, lie is not, and so deliberate, as well as so serious, was his offending that he has no claim for a closing of eyes to his crimes? no right to expect the tenderness of consideration he never gave.
