Following the parade a program will
be given at Masonic Hall in charge of
A. J. McAllister of New York, rep­
resenting the Liberty Loan Committee
of the Fourth District. Mr. McAllister
is a splendid type of manager and will
appeal to all.
The address of welcome will be
given by Robt. B. McGinn, of Jeffer­

Department.
War Story by Wounded Soldier.
A verv entertaining feature will be
the talk given by Sergt. Joseph Glenn
of New York, who went out with the
old 69th Regiment, went over the top
and was gassed and wounded by the
horrible Huns. Sergt. Glenn, by the
way, is a brother of Mrs. James Carr
of Youngsville. His talk is said by
those who have heard it to be full*-of
interest and thrills and a good supply
of wit and humor, even amidst the terterrible tales of battle.
The Onenota Band consist;, of
tw e n t y -fiv e pieces and is said to be a
crackerjack. They will play at the
hall as well as in the parade.
There will also be solo and chorus
singing, with Miss Stewart of Oneonta
piano accompanist.
The Story of Belgium by a Native
Woman.
The star feature of the program will
be Madame van de Zande, a Belgium
woman of high accomplishments, who
will tell the story of the German in­
vasion of their country, the inhuman
atrocities committed and the strug­
gle of the Belgiums for lib­
erty and preservation. The Madame
also sings very sweetly. She is con­
sidered a very high-class attraction,
and this district has been, very for­
tunate in getting her services in this
Liberty Loan drive.
No admission will be charged to the
hall, but as this occasion is to pre-
Humors of peace and abdication fill
the air—but this poison gas from Ger­
man^ shall not blind our eyes.
The Kaiser doesn’t want peace-—he
wants time; .and with this frightful
foe there is no halfway between vic­
tory and defeat. We have but one
answer—unconditional surrender.
What we do now, we do forever!
We have sent over our own two mil­

We ask for six billion dollars to
save four million soldier boys from be­

They are bound for Berlin. Noth­
ing can stop them but our failure to
do ora* part at home as well as our
heroes are doing their part in Europe.
We shall not fail.
We must not fail. . Our Government
looks to us to win this fight at home.
We are on the battle line and this
victory must be won; the Fourth Lib­
erty Loan must be oversubscribed!
Minute Men Schedule.
On Saturday evening the fourminute-men will wind up the Fourth
Lioerty Loan Campaign in Sullivan

where their sons and families, brot­

Mr. and Mrs. Moss proved them­
selves royal entertainers. The room
was beautifully decorated, autumn,
leaves predominating, with roses,,
chrysanthemums and smilax much in
evidence.
Such a feast of good things to eat,
including two fat turkeys, and the flow
of wit and good wishes scored during
the toasts given, will long be remem­
bered by the near and dear ones pres­
ent. Music by an only granddaughter
Miss Helen Moss of Richmond Hill,
was a feature of the occasion*
Many appropriate gifts were re­
ceived, also congratulations by phone
and telegraph. That they may have
