ARCHIE DUNN FOREGOEs
MUCH PRIzED HIGH BOOTs THAT
SAMNIIEs MAY HAVE WARM SHOES

Clayton and the rest of Union County
will have to take of their patriotic hats
to Archie Mcdonald Dunn, the IL year
old son of Ed Dunn, OF west of town.
Archie is n patriot of the sort who
act. rather than just talk. and his eN-
ample might well be followed by all
the children, and some of the grown up
people of this section.
What did Archie do?
He was the first person big or little,
TO purchase n war saving certificate
stamp in this whole broad county, And
he bought two certificates with money
which he earned, working in his fathers
field and at odd jobs around te commun-
ity near his home.
Archie wanted a pair of high topped
boots, he explained to those interested.
Wanted those boots JUS like anything.
So he started 10 earning and saving
money.NHe's been saving the little sums
that little fellow could earn all thru
the hot summer. He wanted those boots
TO wear school this fall. But in an
issue of his daddy's paper, The Clayton
News, he read1-oh, yes! he can read
nearly as well hs a grown up person
Ndbout the Junior Red Cross and the
plan of the government-his daddy's
government his grand daddys gov
ernment his government to issue
thru the post office the miniature Lib
erty Bonds that are known as the wal
savings certificate stamps and decided
that he could help the soldiers who are
lighting to save his government fol
him by huyng these certificates.
So in order that the Sammies might
go into the trenches well shod an6
fight the Germans with dry, warm
feet Archie unselfshly gave up the
thot Of purchasing the high boots thai
had been his summers dream and in
stead purchased from the local pos
l office two certificates. The two cos
him $S24. but he believes the money
| is well invested
