HELP PAY YOUR DEBT TO UNCLE SAM! Some wizard may invent a way to beat the submarine, but wizardry is not going to win the war for America. There isn’t going to be any hocus pocus business about what we’ve got on our hands. It’s going to be just plain old plugging away, everybody doing his best, that will win. We’ve laid our plans for raising the army we’re going to need. Now we’re going to back up the army; we’ve got to keep it out fitted, fed and supplied with guns and ammunitions. That takes money—loads of money. . For the first of this money a bond issue has been voted by Congress. Bonds are on sale now. These bonds can be had at any bank. They draw 3 1-2 per cent interest. They come in denominations of as low as $50. You can get the meither for one lump payment, or on the installment plan. Applications must be made before June 15. You pay 2 per cent on application, 18 per cent June 28, 20 per cent July 30, 30 per cent August 15 and 30 per cent August 30. That is the install ment plan. You, arc not giving Uncle Sam anything. You are just loan !ng him a little money at good interest, on security that is the best in the world. And you won’t have to pay taxes on it. Your bond is marketable at any time. You can sell it any day you pjease. It is up to the American people to buy these bonds and to buy them quick. Wall street isn’t going to buy these bonds. It can’t, The money has got to come from the people—and that’s you. You'll be saving money for yourself, making it earn some thing for you and helping your country and your fight with every stroke. Every American owes his country a debt that he can never overpay, but every American can do a little toward paying by buying a Liberty Bond today. “TO HAVE AND TO HOLD.”. The legacy of freedom, wrested from greedy foreign nations and (tended down to us by our forefathers, is a priceless one, and beingjso it devolves upon us to protect and preserve it, by every drop Of our blood if need be, for ourselves and our children and our children’s children. , The,greatest folly we could just now be guilty of would be to shut our eyes to the German menace looming so menacingly abovtais. We need not deceive purselves as to the intent of Em- pror William and his war lords. It is needful that we fully realize that his insatiable greed for German aggression includes America. It is no difficult matter to visualize what would happen should Teuton arms be victorious over the entente allies. There is no as surance that it will not happen if the United States does not throw herself whole-heartedly into the breach. It is the part of America to sate herself and the world from German autocracy. In all ages liberty has been won at a terrific blood cost. It has been ifecessary to fight to hold it. War is monstrous, but only by the sword has freedom been established, and by the sword must’we now fight for the liberty of the world. Our food, our money and our men must be contributed freely and unreservedly to this present contest in the interest of uni versal democracy. We must accept the Inevitable with proper res ignation. We will do a big part in winning this world war for freedom. It has been demonstrated that patriotism is as strong in our land as it ever was. When victory comes to entente arms the Stars and Stripes will be found floating proudly and conspicu ously" along with the banners of its allies. WHY NOT RETURN TO THE OLD METHOD? Since the publication recently in The Herald of several edito rials concerning the condition of the roads of Clarke county a number of gentlemen have suggested that a probable remedy lies in a return,to the old method of electing the county commissioners by the grand jury instead of by the people. In fact, it is reported that a petition is soon to be circulated asking the representatives of Clarke county in the legislature to endeavor to have the law changed. These gentlemen assert that the old method of selecting the county commissioners was far the best, and The Herald is inclined to agree with them. These gentlemen state that the present mem bra of the commission are very clever gentlemen who are doing their J»st to give the county good roads, but the contention is that 'here are men in the county who are equipped to render as good rvide as can be had but who are not disposed to enter a political [test for one of the positions. me |^he QRom Bee experts are mobilizing their resources. No, not for serv ice at the front. All the wheat in England belongs to the government. All the wheat in America is the plaything of the Chicago wheat pit, “Zeppelin went to heaven,” said Simplicissimus. "Zeppelin brought down,” said headlines in America a few days later. Several cities have little gambling crusades on. Why not make it national, and get after the Chicago and Minneapolis wheat gamblers? Oh, very well, put your old tax on coffee. The P<wtiim ads knock the beverage anyway as being unhealthful. There’s a chance of chicory again becoming a popular drink at mealtimes. It is quite true that Uncle Sam is not raising his new army by the volunteer system, but just the same we regret that the Colonel could not have his way about raising a division.

Stockholm, June 7.—Ten thousand socialists and laborers rioted in the Royal Square here Tuesday after noon when the premier of the lower house of parliament refused the elec tion of the Socialist leader, Branting- berg, to the upper house. A number were wounded by sabres wielded by police and soldiers. A big force of guards was hastily summoned to the palace and parlia ment when the mob began giving in diactions of violence. The parade had started as a peaceable demonstra tion, but when the crowd found its progress barred to approaches to the palace and the parliament buildings, their temper changed. Stones were thrown at the police and soldiers and there were several spirited clashes. The guard'# however, were strong enough to repel all attempts of the mob to rush the parliament building.

They arc the regular stock Super-Six Cars with changes that increased their speed and made them more suitable for racing, but that have not altered their design. All that was done to these cars could be done at nominal cost to anyone of the 36,000 Hudson Super-Six Cars now ir. use. Not Built to Win—Built to Endure. There were many cars entered that were admittedly faster than the Hudson. But the speed a car shows for a few laps is not always an indication of what may be expected in a 250 Mile grind. Hudsons are matched against the specially designed racing care that they may prove their endurance. Whatever position they fin ish in is due to their ability to maintain a high speed without mechanical break down. The Super-Six motors are 3 Vi by 5 inches in size, exactly the same size as the motors used in all Hudson Super-Six stock cars. Most of the racing care in the sweepstakes event have larger motors than the Super-Sixes and the care weigh from 500 to 700 pounds less than the Hudsons. Most of the care en tered bear names that arc not known in the field of pleasure cars. They are built solely for the purpose 'of racing. Hudson racing cars are built to show Hudson engineers how to build better Hudsons. What May Be Expected of Stock Super-Sixes. All tests made by Hudson Super-Six Care indicate what may be expected of any Hud son Super-Six Stock Car. Hudsons made their fine showings at Cin cinnati by staying in ti«s race when other and faster cars were compelled to drop out That is what you want of an automobile. You want a car that will not break down under stress of any service you will ever im pose. Of course you are not buying a racing car. You will never want to drive 250 Miles at a speed of 101 Miles an hour.' You won’t ever want to cross the continent in record time and then turn around and make the round trip in 10 day3, 21 houre. That is what a 7 Passenger Hudson Super-Six did. And you don’t want to drive 1.810 miles in 24 hours as a stock Hudson Super-Six Chassis did when it broke the 24 hour record by 52%. But you want a car that will keep going as long as you will ever want it to go. What the Hudson Super-Six has proved in endur- «nce in speed trials and what was proved fa) the Cincinnati races by the Specials, far ex cel in severity any test that anyone is ever likely to make. , Any car will run well for a time on dtp boulevards. Any car will show good speed for a time. But what the car will do under rough usage and what it will do in a grind equalling that of the. speedway are indica* tions of what it will do in yean of service. y You would have been firmly convinced of Hudson[endurance had you Men the Super- Sixes at Cincinnati. Don’t think'the Super-Six is a racing car. But racing care must stand up under the hardest service. We are merely proving that the Hudson Super-Six is an enduring Car. That it will meet every service task without jjjj^PPOlntment or expense is what theM testa You can get a Hudson Super-Six in aeven different body types: Phaeton—7 Paa.enjer $IC50 ’ Cabriolet—3 PuMOSfor SJ9&I Speedster—4 Pataen-.r 17GO Tourin* Sedan j ,173, MORRIS YOW ■W:V- 133 W.
