ALL IS READY
FOR BIG DRIVE
All is now set for the great Third
Liberty Loan drive for $3,000,000,000
with its over subscriptions.
Every county in every state in the
Union, and every town and city in
every county, is listed at headquarters
of the Liberty Loon Organization at
St. Louis, and ac ihe Treasury De
partment at Washington.
Each town, city and county has had
the quota of bonds it must take al
lotted to it? and each will be expected
and must take the bonds assigned.
The financiers everywhere expected
the issue to be much larger than the
$3,000,000,000 requred. Plans were
perfected for a sale largely In ex
cess of this. Now with the organiza
tions that have been effected the quo
ta should be subscribed in a very
brief campaign. i
Many counties and towns have ad
vised headquarters that their quotas
are already pledged, and with a little
work the over-subscriptions will
reach sums that will show the world
that the patriotism of the people has
been aroused to a high pitch; will
show our allies across the water that
the United States may be depended on
to do its part, and will demonstrate
to the kaiser and all Germany that
every man in this nation and every
dollar of America’s wealth will be en
listed in the war that is to sweep
Prussianism from the face of the
_iL
Uttl Wl,
For the Third Liberty Loan Jack
son county’s quota has been fixed at
$264,600. The county in the second
Liberty Loan had $162,000 for its
minimum; the target was $270,000;
the actual subscription totaled $207,
700 and was taken by 686 subscrib
ers.
