| Calls on State Clergy to "Act as Ora l cles in the Cause of Liberty"

Governor Marcus H. Holcomb on Tuesday issued a. proclama tion desig- hating Sunday, Oct. 21, as Second Lib erty Loan Sunday and calling upon the clergy of Connecticut to act as ora cles in the cause of liberty by urging the members of their congregations to subscribe to the second Liberty loan.

 The people of the United States of America have been singutarly blessed throughout the years. The Giver of
 all Good Gifts .has endowed them with
 wealth and resources such as never

 and patriotic emotion give sanction to
 this call. In these troublous times,
 when financial systems are tottering
 empires crumbling, and the very moral
 order of civilization is threatened with
 chaos. the one form of investment

The latest official figures announced by the local banks give the Liberty loan total subscribed in this city as s2ss, 100. This total is made up by 495 subscriptions.
 The sub- committee chairmen of the local Liberty loan committee held an important meeting Tuesday afternoon at 3.30 o'clock in the directors room of the Norwich Savings society. The reports of the sub committee chair men were heard and accepted. It was announced Tuesday afternoon that the local banks will remain open on the afternoon of Wednesday, Oct. 24th, to receive Liberty loan subscriptions only. Oct. 24th has been proclaimed by President Woodrow Wilson as Liberty day and by the proclamation ait is a legal half holiday. Frand l.. Woodland. Alderman William IT. Allen and Arthur F. Libby Were appointed a committee to plan a celebra tion for Liberty day afternoon. It is probable that a street parade will be held followed by brief addresses and community singing. Tubbs Military band will probably lead the parade and give a concert program at a location near the Wau- regan house corner. After the close of the speaking a general invitation will be issued to all those in the gathering to visit the banks and sub scribe. to the Liberty loan fund
