Sherer, state chairman, War Finance committee of Illinois. The treasure is idle money, now in the form of U. S. war savings stamps, and is "buried" in thousâ€" ands of bureau drawers and pigâ€" eon holes, attic trunks and strong boxes in every county of the state, Mr. Sherer said. No interâ€" est is paid on these stamps. * French agent, ‘"H. 21," better known to illfame as Mata Hari, which in Javanese means ‘"Eye of the Mornâ€" ing." Legends surround her name; legends she created to further her dubious theatrical career as a perâ€" former of erotic Javanese dances. According to these myths, she was a halfâ€"caste, born of a Dutch father, and a Javanese mother, and as an apprentice dancer in the Javanese temple at Malabar, hag learned the esoteric mysteries of their rites. ‘"H. 21" in the first World war. _No story of espionage can be com The stamps, approximately $10,â€" 000,000 of them, are in denominaâ€" tions of 10¢, 25¢, 50c, $1 and $5, and: have been pasted into books havifg capacities which correspond with Victory "E" bonds, with purâ€" chase values of $18.75, $37.50 and $75,00. It is estimated that, on the average, these stamp books are half filled and that if they are filled‘by additional purchases and converted into Victory "E" bonds, sales of more than $20,000,000 in bonds will result therefrom in IIâ€" linois Parents will be urged to supply the stamps missing in their chilâ€" dren‘s books so the books may be exchanged for interestâ€"earning Victoroy "E" bonds at any authorâ€" ized Victory bond issuing agentâ€" such as banks or other established bond sources. ‘ T. Native Hollander. Born in Holland on August 7, 1876, as Margaret Gertud Zelle, her parâ€" ents were worthy, stolid, respectaâ€" ble Hollanders, to whom Java was just the name of one of their counâ€" try‘s misty, unreal colonial possesâ€" sions.. However, Mata Hari seems to have inherited little from them aside from her last name, and she rapidly changed that by the simple expedient of marrying a Dutch Coâ€" lonial army officer named McLeod. The couple moved to Java where he was stationed, and it was here she acquired her smattering of temple ritual, and by proxy, her exotic Javâ€" anese parentage and b«ckground. . By this means, many adults can give their children or other relaâ€" tives a Victory E bond for Christâ€" mas, whereas they might not" be able to afford the outright purâ€" cliase of a bond. It is pointed out that money is safer in the form of Victory "E" bonds than as stamps, because the bonds are registered in the ownâ€" er‘s name. In addition, the bonds bring a return in the froportion of four to three at the end of ten espionage seems to Rave Hot Stuff her activities on the stage, for Gerâ€" man records show that in 1904 she was in their employ as a spy, while her ‘triumphant Paris debutas. a Javanese dancer did not take place until 1905, from which point onward He asked for burning kisses She said in accents cruel "I may be a red hot mama, But I ain‘t nobody‘s fuel" Remember, it is possible to spy for both sides at once. her two careers progressed simulâ€" taneously. Meanwhile, she had, in transit, lost her besotted and brutal husband. > It seems‘ as if Mata Hari turned to espionage and the stage as a reâ€" lease from the memory 6f her horâ€" rible years of married life, for she was more interested in the semâ€" blance than in reality, and behaved in both roles exactly as the unreal heroines of popular fiction do in simâ€" Played Two Hands. In 1915, Mata Hari became a spy for France as well as for Germany. Her mode of securing information for her two.international employers was startlingly similar to the methâ€" od she used during her rise to theâ€" atrical fame: a continuum of proâ€" miscuous intimacies with men in the highest places. Among her adâ€" mirers were the German crown prince, a high French war official, a Dutch premier, and a duke; not to mention small fry such as generals and captains. lb s P Mrs. Agnes Driscoll, Long Time Resident, Is Laid to Rest Mrs. Agnes Driscoll, 78, for 24 years a resident of Highland Park, was laid to rest in All Saints ceâ€" metery on Wednesday, Dec. 5.

Despite all these contacts, there is little evidence that Mata Hari ever unearthed any information of real importance to either side, this in spite ofthe unsubstantiated claim she was responsible for the sinking of 17 Allied warships. Greatest mysâ€" tery of all is her arrest and trial The only conclusion which fits the facts is that she had become a luxâ€" ury which neither the Germans nor French could afford, and that she had been betrayed by her German masters to the French. b_ P Of Years‘ Standing Funeral rites were held Wednesâ€" day, December 5, at St. James church, Highwood, for Michael Diâ€" asparra, who passed away in Elgin hospital last Saturday after an illness of long standing. : Mata Hari playcd ber rowe; and was in character, to the end.
