triet, enjoyed its first community
meeting on last Thursday, Febru-
airy %.
The forenoon was occupied by a
very interesting and much appre-
ciated program. One number. "a
musical debate" on Washington

and pleasing.
After the program came one Of
those country dinners which pas
seth all understanding. Gee, it
was good You wonder where it
all comes from and you cannot un-
derstand how so much can be left
after everyone has slowed away
his full capacity.
After dinner, and the deck
cleared for action, County Supt.
Miss Martin, gave talk on the
object and value Of these COM

work. This was followed by Coun-

Approximately $4,000 worth 0
Liberty bonds were sold yesterda.
by the various teams of the Com
rercial Club according to the report:
made yesterday by the team cap
tains of this organization. The cap
tains meet every evening to submit
their report to Harry L. Albert, sec-
retary of the Liberty Loan Associ
alton of Cape Girardeau.
The largest amount of subscrip-
tions was reported by Mr.. Albert
whose team sold s13,75O worth of thc
bonds on the first day of the cam
paign. Mr.. Albert himself sold S1,75O
worth of the bonds largely on the in
stallment plan in addition to several
thousand dollars, which were cash
sales.
The largest subscription given b.
a single person in the Cape was
turned over to Mr.. Albert yesterday
evening by member of his team,
smaller sums collected on the first
Mr.. Albert said the purchaser of the
bonds declined to have his name re-
vealed.
The second largest amount of suo-
scriptions was reported by H. a.
Nussbaum and the members of his
team. They collected subscriptions
to the amount of $4,000. w. c. Balm
and his associates disposed of bon IS
to the amount of $4,000. The re-
naming team captains reported
smaller sums collected on the first
day of their campaign.
Several teams, Mr.. Albert SAID,
were unable to start their work ye;-
terday for various reasons. Several
captains are out of town at present,
and therefore could not get their CO.
workers organized for their work.
The teams will meet tonight at the
Commercial Club to make final re-
port of the work accomplished dur
ing the two days of the first week of
the campaign. Mr.. Albert said last
night he was certain the tota!
amount of bonds sold during these
two days would approximate $4,000.
The installment plan which has
been applied to the purchase of the
second issue of the Liberty bonds
has made the sale of the Govern
ment bonds much easier tha ndurina
the first campaign. Under this plar
the purchaser of $50 bond may de
post 81 with his application and pay
the rest of the amount in bi-monthlv
inStallmentS of two dollars each, or
the first and fifteenth day of each
month, until the full amount has
been paid up. If more bonds are ap-
piled for by an individual, then the
payments will be proportionate tc
the numbe rof bonds.
Mr.. Albert said he was surprised
at the enthusiasm he found amonl
the people in the city. Due to the
installment plan many working pee
pie. clerks, stenographers and Other!
who have not sufficient cash to make

The largest amount of bonds sub

SUMMARY OF WAR

Violent German efforts to wipe
out the salient before Cambrai have
brought little tactical success as
General Bynp has withstood success
fully for three days all attempts to
break through. About Gonnelieu the
Germans have gained slight terrain
at heavy cost. The British have
evacuated Masnieress south OF Cam
brai. The Germans have suffered
very heavy losses in dead and
wounded and the British have taken
many hundreds of prisoners.
In the important sector west OF
Cambria, embracing Bourbon wood,
the dominating position in this re-
gion, the Germans have made no i'm
preston on the British defenaes, nor
have General Byna'a men given
ground between Bourbon wood and
Moeuvres, the northern side of the
salient. Ten heavy attacks against
the region of Masnisres were driven
off by the British with costly losses
for the attackers, but . sharp
salient involving the village made its
abandonment necessary.
Southwest of Masnieres toward
Gonnelisu the Germans still hold Ia
vaequerie, where il is said the dead

than in any similar period since the
