Dear Sir: I take the liberty of addressing this letter to you to show how the soldiers from your home town feel about the Third Liberty Loan. If you have bought or will buy a SSO bond 1 will receive one trench knife, five rifle grenades, fourteen hand grenades. One SIOO bond will clothe me or feed me for eight months. One $l5O bond will clothe me and equip me for oversea service. Three SIOO bonds will clothe me and keep mo in France for a year. Some subscriber to the Liberty Loan may know that he has mad'fl the above possible. Why not let it be you? If you have purchased to your greatest possible extent pass this on to some one else.

TO GIVE LECTURE T. E.

Dr. Sam, Small and the "Little Giant" to Talk of Prohibition's Growth "The prospects for prohibition in Pennsylvania were never before so bright, if we can only press the battle without relaxation," declared Dr. Er nest V. Claypool. superintendent of the Harrisburg District, Pennsylvania Anti-Saloon League, to-day, when he gave out a letter which was sent to all clergymen. "It looks now as though the dry forces will win the tight for the House of Representa tives in the General Assembly, and , there is hope for the winning of the Senate also." That Harrisburg shall do its part in the great contest arrangements are being made to bring here some of the most notable speakers in the coun try. the first one being Clinton L. Howard, of Rochester, known as the. "Little Giant," who will speak in Chestnut Street Auditorium Sunday, May 5. at 4 p. m. He has a national reputation as a temperance worker, and is known here. The second visi tor will follow in two days, for the Prohibition forces are going to main tain an intensive drive. He is the Rev. Dr. Sam Small, probably the most famous of all living orators on pa triotic and prohibition themes. The age of 14 found him a Confed erate soldier; manhood saw him an officer in the United States Army dur ing the Spanish War; he has three sons serving now. Activities in fight ing "booze" have resulted in his being twice shot, three times cut with knives, twice beaten with clubs and left for dead. For wit, humor, sar casm, logic and eloquence he stands alone, and Harrisburg will learn things about the liquor evil it never heard, says Dr. Claypool. Itis your duty not only to buy Third Liberty Loan Bonds, but to consider yourself an agent of the government to help persuade others to buy them. John C. Herman & Co.
