of Pianos to Sell to YOU
7ysgaaOSUmS
Ever since 1853 we have been
buying and selling pianos. The
grandparents and great-grand
parents of many present-day
Little Rock citizens bought mu
sical instruments from us back
in the “fifties and sixties.”
The experience we have gained
proves to us that these pianos
are unsurpassed—Kimball IIol

we offer them to you with the
knowledge that they cannot
fail to please.

VICTORY LOAN’S PART
Previous Loans Had Imoortant Par'.’

Loan Must Be Floated.
If you will take a look at the map
of Europe and reel'd the things that
have been happening in the last four
years you will see at a glance that two
thirds of the European Old World has
been overturnc-d In a governmental
sen-e.
There are many vacancies In the old
listr. of kings. The Russian nobility
has been wiped out. It has diaap
peered from the Almanac da Gotha,

Ti'.< re is not the slightest objection
to ifc ir forming such governments as

their own lines. There aro no fetter.;
on them. They are free to set up such
dev.e ratio governments as they wan'.
Doubtless there would be little objec
tion to certain states going back to
the monarchial fotm if the people
thought that best.
Right now the Allied nations have a
Blow and wearisome Job. The tedious
task of impressing the points of this
new deal on the people who are com
ing into control in the chaotic em
pires. In brief, the Germanic idea
must be stamped out and uprooted.
If it is not done we may have to
fight this war all over again in fifty
years. Therefore we Americans are
staying til! the end and doing ouf
best to see that there is a new and a
fair and square deal. All of which is
costing us money, but it is a mighty
good way to pay our peace insurance
premiums.
Therefore there is a call for an
other Liberty Ixtan subscription. Do
not get the idea that it is not as im
portant as the others were. Our sol
diers are still standing along the
picket line of civilization.
Those other Liberty loans were
training loans, and transportation
loans and fighting loans, but this one
Is the reorganization, the rehabilita
tion and reconstruction, the reclama
tion, peace and rescue loan. And
don’t let any one tell you that It is
the least Important of all the loans
that have been offered.
We want the world to start out
again with a fair chance. We hope
to see a good many time honored
abuses wiped out forever. We want
to see the Prussian spirit tamed and
the German spirit In general weak
ened till it will never again menace
the earth. And because of these
wishes and hopes we are not turning
our back on Europe. We want to feel
safe when it is ali over and the treaty
signed, sealed and delivered.
This last is the Peace Loan as well
as the "Victory’ loan. And we want
to make it an enduring peace.
