R[D TRIANGLE QUOTA REACHED

After the luncheon closed with a
stirring speech by James G, Thomas
the troops started out to canvass
the business district thoroughly this
afternoon, each team taking def
mite part of the territory. They will
visit all stores and factories, but will
not solicit women, although volun-
teered subscriptions from women are
welcome and some substantial ones
have been received.
The solicitors and organization will
keep list of all who refuse to sub
scribe anything-they are to be card
fndexed for future reference, es-
for Liberty bonds, the Red Cross or
other patriotic affairs.
A Stirring Speech.
Mr.. Thomas put a very high volt
age into the whole organization by
his stirring speech. He told the
teams to appreciate their work and
subscribe themselves until 1t hurts
and then they will be better solicit
tors He called the Red Triangle
"the best cause God ever smiled on
and said every citizen today Is a sol
der for the United States and must
either do his duty in work or CIV
ing, cor be as much coward as the
soldier at the front who turns tail
and runs"
The speech was very practical, and
started the men over the top full of
ginger for the afternoon.
