' " As a result of the great war in which this nation is now
engaged, many methods are being evolved to help the gov-
ernment ,and at the same time assist people in saving their
money.
In line with the customary progressiveness of this bank,
and our constant desire to afford the banking public every
facility for encouraging SAVINGS AND THRIFT, we have
on hand a supply of War-Savings Certificate Stamps, and
United States Thrift Stamps.
We shall be glad to explain them in detail to prospect-
ive purchasers. If you desire to buy them, or wish any in-
formation regarding them, don't hesitate to call and ask our
tellers about them.

•gainst Kgypt across the great desert
Of the Sinai peninsula.
In November, 1914, a Turkish army
variously estimated at from 75,OuO to
250,000 men, marched on the Suez
canal and succeeded in reaching with-
in striking distance of the great arti-
ficial waterway at several points. For
several months bitter fighting took
place, the canal be I in- defended by an
,A"jlO-K»»>tlan nriny uldcd by Aus-
tralians and New Zealanders and
French and British forces.
Lull In CamiMiign.
For the greater part of 1915 con-
flicting reports of the situation were
received from the belligerents but in
December of that year definite infor-
mation showed that the Turks had
been driven back as far as El Arisli,
about eighty-five miles east, of the
canal. A lull occurred then which
lasted for six months and In June,
1916, the Turks again advanced an far
as Katieh, about fifteen miles east of
the canal. Here they were decisively
defeated, losing more than 3,000 pris-
oners and a great quantity of equip-
ment. Another period followed in
which the situation was greatly con-
fused through the vagueness and con-
tradictory character of the official
statements, but In December, 19lt>, the
British stormed 101 Arish and a few
days later severely defeated the Turks
at Maghdabah, about sixty miles to
the south on the same front.
Two weeks later the Invaders had
been driven out of Kgypt and British
forces had crossed the border Into
Palestine.
Campaign a Surprise.
There had been no hint from eilh-
er official or unofficial sources as to
a British intention to undertake a
definite invasion of the lloly Land
and it was with Intense surprise that
the world learned on March 7 last
that the British forces had captured
El Khuiilr fifteen miles south of
Jerusalem. i
El Khulll Is the modern name of) well
ancient Hebron. The campaign laps
sugjrefted. would be an increase in
rates, priorty for trans, ortation of
new material, appointment of a traf-
fic manager, for government freight
and exemption from the draft for
railroad employes.
The railroad's opposition to gov-
ernment operation ia well understood
among officials *ho have followed
the situation, but some surprise was
expressed tonight at their objection
to suspension of provisions against
pooling traffic and profit". In the
opinion of many officials coordination
of rail systems i annot be accomplish-
ed until the roads poo" their traffic,
whiili of Itself involve* a pooling of
profits.
The advantages in pooling have
been pointed to as the chief argu-
ment for government operation, since
the government directing the lines
could pool traffic without violating
prohibitions Imposed n>> - for the pro-
tection of the public.
Differ In Solutions.
"The Interstate Commerce commis-
sion and the railroad war board,
composed of railway executives dif-
fer as to (he necessity of legislation

ments of the war. Tin* commission
Insists that unification of operations
should bo conducted either by llie
carriers or by the president.
"The railroads, on the other hand,
claim that there is no necessity for
legislation; that the unification of
the railways already arranged f"r
under the railroads war board is pro-
ceeding successfully and will be fur-
ther perfected; that they do not ask
for the repeal of the anti-trust and
anti-pooling laws, as relating to
them; that they do not ask one bil-
lion dollars from the government or
any body else."

STRENGTH
Positive—Convincing Proof
It is all very well to make claims,
but can they be proven? We publish

Active in Campaign.
By this time the HritiCii Inland
forces were again up in the neighbor-
hood of Hebron where the Turks were
reported organizing for ttie defense of
Jerusalem. General Allenby, the Brit-
ish commander, meanwhile kept his
forces near the coast in rapid motion
and pushed on to Jaffa, the port of
Jerusalem, in mid-November.
By November the British had
pushed within five miles of Jerusa-
lem on the northwest and on Decem-
ber 7 General Allenby snounced that
he had definite possession of Hebron.
Jerusalem thus was virtually cut off
on all sides but the east. Few details
have come through since that date but
the encircling movement must have
been carried out with considerable
rapidity culminating in the surrender
of the city.
Of Great Historic Interest.

even the fall of fable-crowned Hag-
dad.

world, all other places in the world.
Since tlio days when David wrested it
from the hands of Jelmsites to make
it the capital of the Jewish race,
Jerusalem has been the prized prey of
half the races of the world. It has
passed successively Into the hands of
the Assyrians, Babylonians, Greeks,
Romans, Persians, Arabs, Turks, the
motley crowds of the crusaders, finally
to fall before the descendants of Rich-
ard, the lion-hearted, who strove in
vain for its possession more than 700
years ago.

The beautiful little home of Mr. and
Mrs. Grady Barton in Bellvlew was
burned yesterday at about 1:30 p. m.
The origin of the fire was not known
but it was supposed to have been from
a defective flue. Tho flames were
making headway when first discov-
ered by Mrs. Barton, who was at home
at the time, and there was no hope
of saving the house by the time the
fire department could arrrive. Part
of the furniture and other household
effects were saved.
The residence was built about three
years ago. The loss was partially cov-
ered by insurance.
A Sure Way To
End Dandruff
There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, common liquid arvon
from any drug store (this is all you will
need), apply it at night when retiring;
nse enough to moisten the icalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis-
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly, and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
and loft, and look and feel a hundred
times better.

How to Decicb What Price to Pay
IF you knew how willing every
■■■ Columbia Grafonola dealer is that
you should come into his store and
look and listen and experiment and
play records on various priced instru-
ments, until you were sure that you
had decided on the price that you
wanted to pay, you would never think
of reaching a decision in any other
place but a Columbia salesroom.
We want you to note the difference
in the Grafonolas, the difference in
finishes, the difference 4in prices.
Play the same record on different
instruments, play different records
on the same instrument — come to
your conclusion.
Above all things have no hesitation
about visiting the Columbia dealer
and playing records and hiving rec-
ords played as many times as you
feel like before you buy. The more
you know about the Columbia
Grafonola, the higher the chances
will become that it is the phono-
graph that you will finally decide to
buy.
But whether you arc ready to buy
a phonograph now or not, by all
means jvisit the Columbia dealer and
hear the Columbia Grafonola played.
Do this, if for no other reason than
because of our assurance that you'll
be made welcome there.
4i
Colombia Grafonolas are made in a large
number of models, with the widest range
of prices in the phonograph field.
