MILLION OVER QUOTA
CAMDEN'S OBJECTIVE
Gloucester Shipyard Workers
Have Purchased Bonds
Amounting to 100000

While Camden County has exceeded
its loan quota it is striving to exceed it
by million "over the top" The quota
was S5,O0O,OOO but a revision Of figures
made last week reduced the sum to
A.75o,ooo. This was passed, the reports
bringing the total subscriptions to
Si75o,00o. The boost was due to the
purchase Of more than 100000 worth
Of bonds by Gloucester shipyard work.
crs. An effort will be made to make it
an extra million dollars
james L. Bryan, superintendent OF
Camdens public schools, in a report Of
the work Of the scnool TO the Liberty
Loan committee, showed that the school
children sold bonds to the amount OF
$S1,l50. lie said up to April 26 the
mark set as the goal had been passed
and more applications are coming in
every day Virtually all of the schools
are active and have made their efforts
felt in all parts Of the city.
The Liberty Loan committee has ex-
pressed its qualification at the work
done by the schools. Mr.. Bryan says
that he feels that there is one school
that should be mentioned individually.
That school Is Liberty. Liberty has
honored its name. 1t has breathed the
world spirit That spirit is liberty. Lib
erty's record to date is $4,000.
The subscription made by the several
chools are as follows: Liberty, $50. 900

That the loan will reach the $4,000

pected, as up TO the present time only
four Of the banking institutions have
been reported as subscribing for the
loan and it is known that there are
some large subscriptions which have not
