001 MEN 10 ARE
STILL OVER THERE
DEMAND SUPPORT
EUROPE CANNOT BE ABANDONED
UNTIL THE FIRE IS UNDER
CONTROL.
MONEY MUST BE COMING
Last Chance to Do All We Neglected
to Do While the War
Lasted.
!
It Is mighty easy and very pleasant
to consider that the war Is over and
done and that there Is nothing more
to be done except to welcome the re
turning soldiers and write histories
of the battles.
In most respects the war Is over.
The peace conference Is concluding its
labors. Its decisions will doubtless
be final.
But—the war isn’t over for a lot
of people. How about the million
Americans who are still "over there?"
Is the war finished for them? Aren’t
they Just as much a part of the Amec
lean army, Just as much our defenders
as they were when they formed a part
of that living wall that stood between
us and the Hun bayonets a year ago?
These men are on duty in France.
They are on duty In Germany and in
Russia. Their task was to stand
guard until the treaty Is signed. They
will stay longer If necessary for they
are soldiers and have sworn to remain
at their post of duty and under or
ders. They are a part of the world
forces that are watching until order Is
restored.
And the war Isn’t over for the mil
lions of Americans in America until
we have met ail Its demands that we
can meet. We have a big part of thj
responsibility here. There is a duty
that must be done at once. We have I
a balance to meet, a balance on ao
count that must be paid.
The Americans over on the Rhine
are paying in time :md services. A
year ago they were paying In time, in ]
danger, In services and In hard fight- j
lng. Here at home we have the easier
part of It. All we hav# to pay Is our
money and we are not giving that. We 1
are loaning, not giving, and we are 1
getting a very high rate of interest :
on the loan.
At that our money for the Victory
Liberty Loan is needed just as badly
as Uncle Sam needs soldiers along the
Rhine. Services and money, they are
both needed.
yy n nil1 "AU v *" “ lu* -. m
until the fire is out, or at least well
under control. We don’t want a half
victory that may cause us years of
trouble In the future. Europe must
have time to come to her senses after
the raving mania that has been here
for more than four years, it Is neces
sary to hold Bolshevism In check, to
put an end to lawlessness and to re
store normal conditions as nearly as
possible. We don’t want to leave un
til quiet Is restored. We emphatically
do not want to be going back to do
the job all over again within a few
years.
Of course, all this Is costly. Not 'n
lives, but in money and time. No man
(an say how long it will be necessary !
for Americans to aid In maintaining a
hard won peace. But whatever may
be necessary we may rest assured that
our own welfare and that of the world
demands it.
We can’t shirk our part of the work, j
From the day we entered the war w»
were obligated to it, pledged and com
mitted to bear our share of it. We can
hot permit t)nct"e Sam to get the repu
tation of a “quitter.” We know that
he needs several billion dollars more
to carry on what ho has undertaken.
It is our part to furnish this money.
The Victory Liberty Loan otters
those of us who have not done all
we could in the winning of the war
a chance to make up for what we
might have done. And It will be the
last opportunity that will come this
way. The Victory Liberty Loan Is the
last of the great Issues that will be
popularly subscribed It is now or
never with the American w'ho is not a
holder of Liberty bonds.
We came through the war with small
loses. We were not a battlefield as
some of our allies were. Our indus
trial plants and mines have not been
burned or wrecked. Not an acre of
American farm land has been overrun
by an invader. If there ever w'as a na
tion that was able to buy bonds tha
American nation is able.

PAROQUET HOY HAS NO
HOPES GETTING HOME SOON
Mrs. Logan Hancock of Paroquet,
has received the following letter from
her brother, Private James 0. Stub
blefield, who is in the American Ar
my of Occupation in Germany.
March 28, 1919.
Dear Sister.—I would like to be
over there to help Logan make a
crop this year, but I am afraid he
will have nis crop raised and harvest
ed before I get back to the States.
Would like to have some cabbage
to eat, bur if I have to wait til! I
get back to the States to eat them,
I think it will be a loner time.
I don’t think this Division will
come home until this fall some time,
if then, for we are in the Army of
Occupation in Germany. We are now
in Luxemberg, about 50 miles from
Coblenz.
Tomorrow the Fifth Division is
going to have a motor show in Lux
emberg City. Think I will go. It is
about an hour’s ride on the train,
Bnd I have been told that is a nice
:ity.
You wanted me to write and tell
^ou what ali I had been through, but
will have to wait until I get- back
lome, then I can tell you better than
can write.
The Fifth Division has a paper
lublished now, and I just got a copy
his afternoon, which I will mail you
ts I think you will enjoy reading it.
Will close, hoping to hear from you
loon.
Your brother,
J. O. STUBBLEFIELD.
-
you all well and enjoying life.
I have some nice calendars of the
h ifth Division, which they are giving
out to the boys. Am mailing you one.
It gives a list of the different or
ganizations that belong to the Fifth
Division.
The red diamond in the center is
what we wear on our left shoulder.
When you read the Firth Division pa
per I sent you, it wil tell you what
the red diamond represents. Am also
sending Ira, Katie and Virgie one of
the calendars. I want each of you
to have one because it is of the divi
sion that I belong to.
With best wishes, your loving bro
ther.

PRESENT '
Readjustment Period Will Be Passed
When Victory Lodn Is
Floated.
Mr Business Man, do not be afra;d
when' the fifth and final Liberty Loar.
campaign begins on April 21. Do your
patriotic duty and /our business duty
H, yourself. Support the loan wi:n
your money and your work. Bae.
up the boys who have made peace a
leality Instead of a possibility.
We are beginning to pass through
the. brief period of readjustment. Do
not let temporary conditions influenza
your participation in the Victory L'U
erty Loan. The nation, by April <11,
will have passed the crisis in the
great readjustment necessary to put
the country back on a peace basis
Instead of going info the Victory
Liberty Loan as you have done In tbo
previous loans with the prospect of
higher prices and greater difficulty in
doing business confronting you, you
will be doing your share to pay for th<
victory won, with the prospect of bet
ter business conditions. No one need
fear to make a la.ge initial payment
on bond purchaser.
By helping the government take
, ,ire of our wounded, bring home om'
boys from across (ho water, maintain
what forces we must keep overseas,
.md pay our national war debt, you
help yourself. The Victory Libertv
Notes (short-term notes) probably will
be the best of all. They will bear an
attractive rate of interest and will
be for a short term of years.
Remember the Boya.
If you appreciate the victory that
our boys in khaki and blue have won
in order that you may enjoy the peace
that Is now ours subscribe to your
limit In the Victory Liberty Loan
Make this, the fifth and last Liberty
Loan, the biggest success of all Lib
erty Loans. The nation needs your
money now to “finish the Job
FOR SICK AND WOUNDED.
Thousands of sick and wounded men
He in base hospitals. They offered
their lives that freedom might live
They must be given every care, healed
and returned to their homes. The
government asks for a loan. It offers
the Victory Liberty Notes (short term
bonds), which will soon be Issued. The
menace to civilization Is dead. Ger
man autocracy has been destroyed
War bills must now be paid.
Medals From Captured
Him Guns for Workers
Every Victory Liberty Loan worker
in the Eighth Federal Reserve Distils
will be given a medal made front
non captured by American so diers
from Germany in the war that has
just been won-all but iinishing the

are shown in the accompanying Ulus
trations, are made of the highest
grade of steel, and are splendid speci
mens of art, and the possessor will
have a handsome token of his coun
try's acknowledgment for service ren
dered. The awarding of the medals
will not be made until the close of the
campaign.
A supply of blank certificates will
be sent to each county chairman so
that he can issue a certificate to each
Victory Liberty Loan worker entitled
to receive a medal. The names are to
be sent in to headquarters on proper
blanks by the county chairman so that
medals can be sent to each worker to

VICTORY OR SHAME?
ANSWER IS UP TO YOU
Whether America shall emerge from
■_ ----- - ---
he world war with an untarnished
■ecord, with glory resplendent, or with
>ur glory smirched with shame, will
lepend entirely upon her citizenry.
So far our accomplishments both at
tome and along the ilring line have
won the plaudits of the world. Glv
.n us a new and more commanding
place at tho table of the family of na
iions.
Everywhere we have made good, met
every requirement, registered failure
In no particular.
But we still have to care for that
little detail of finishing the job
And upon our success in that will
depend largely our future position m
the eyes of the world. Whether we
hold or lose its good opinion.
America cannot aflord to fail in this.
She must finish as she began. Finish
as her khaki clad soldiery did. Finish
as Americans should. As Uncle Sam
wants to finish.
It is for you and me Rnd every other
loyal citizen to spare no effort, no
sacrifice, no Inconvenience if need be,
to accomplish this. To uphold the
national honor, the national reputation
for doing things.
To help Uncle Sam make good every
obligation and enable him to stand
before the world as proud of his stay
at-homes as he is of the men who
risked their lives.
A l lO v v* uuj i vwtwn,
Individually, as good as theirs.
We do not want to see America go
down in history as humiliated at the
finish by the men who did not fight.
We do not want to be looked upon
by posterity as men who would not
pay.
Who were without gratitude, without
appreciation, without true loyalty.
We want no finger of shame point
ing at our country.
And Uncle Sam’s place in the sun
a resplendent one.
ONE MORE BIG DRIVE.
One more big loan—one more big
drive—to pay for what our boys did
in France. The spirit that charac
terlzed the American troops is evi
dent at home. Everyone worth the
victory won in Europe will do his full
part in the coming Victory Liberty
Loan campaign.
