EVERY SUBSCRIBER
TO RECEIVE CREDIT
The allotment of the Third Liberty
Loan Bonds for Valdez amounts to
$23,000, based upon the banking busi
ness done here. By Valdez is meant
not only the town, but embraces the
outlying camps which do business
here, and Grdtiby, Cliff, Ellamar, Fi
dalgo, Latouche and the other camps
on the Sound are included within the
Valdez district. When the previous
loans were floated these camps bore
their full share of the subscriptions,
and it is expected that the present
loan will And them ready and willing
to make their subscriptions equal if
not larger than formerly. It is only
fair that these camjA should receive
credit for the share they take in mak
ing the loan a success, and it has been
arranged that they shall receive full
credit for the sums they may send
here for the purpose of purchasing
bonds.

We'll meet you on the Sourdough
Trail,
And mush along together.
We will be there without fail.
No matter what the weather.
The wintry, glacier winds may blow,
April suns may shine,
But we will all be bound to go
And see the sights so fine.
We'll eat Baked Beans and Brown
Bread
And home-made war time sweets,
And laugh until we're almost dead,
At the little Jap athletes.
And mush along to the living doll
show.
And admire their beauty rare;
And wish we had them home. I know,
To smile and cheer us there.
And on we go to the Art Booth fine
With its aprons and caps,
Which housewives all prize.
At the price, you'll say, they’re
certainly smart.
Too numerous to tell are the sights
you’ll see.
But come to Moose Hall and you’ll
say with me.
That the music and show and good
things to eat
In all this land can not be beat. 2t

TEUTONS WELCOMED
BY RUSS PEOPLE
MOSCOW: A Russian woman doc
tor who has returned to Moscow from
Dyinsk, tells of the conditions there
after the Germans entered the city.
Municipal officials and persons of all
classes, tired of disorder and confu
sion, welcomed the Germans, gave
flowers to the officers and paid them
every courtesy.
The Germans were kind the first
day but the second day they comman
deered all food supplies, reduced food
allowances to Russians by one-half
and shipped supplies out of the city.
The mayor of Dvinsk offered the Ger
man commander bread and salt, ac
cording to the Russian custom in
greeting visitors, but this feeling was
soon changed toward the Invaders,

Drive Germany’s Silent Allies from America
MAKE SURE THEY CAN’T ENTER YOUR HOME.
Waste and Extravagance are Germany’s Silent Allies.
They will help the Kaiser. They will kill American soldiers.
Every bit of waste, every extravagance takes force from
the power America must put into the war to win. Every penny
spent for luxuries and unnecessary things is a penny lost .to
the productioh and purchase of goods, clothing, supplies, ships
and munitions for our soldiers.
As long as we spend wastefully, Germany will receive si
lent but powerful help from America; just so much farther
away is the Day of Peace.
Don’t spend thoughtlessly or unnecessarily. Save! With
high wages and plenty of work for everyone there never was
such an opportunity to help yourself and help your country.
Save to help the Government. Lend your savings to your
Country—
BUY WAR SAVINGS STAMPS
and drive out the enemy’s silent allies. Put your dimes and
quarters, as well as your dollars, at work.

ings Stamps and watch your savings grow. They are a profit
able, simple and secure investment. You’ll never find a better
road to Prosperity.
