day which is to be known as Liberty
Loan Day" Il Is his idea 70 interest all
the school children in the celebration
and make the local demonstration a
tltting one.
The Liberty Loan officials Of Wash
ngion have notified all committees that
due credit Will be given all cities over
$1,000 population that make early re-
turns of their quota and progress in the
campaign. The city OF Toledo has
promptly challenged the country in this
competition.
With Wilmington approaching close
to the realization Of its quota this is an
excellent opportunity to be the FIRST
city in the cOuOntry 10 go "over the
top" The only hindrance to this is the
fact that all OF the committees have not
reported the,amount they have obtained
II all had reported the result Of their
work up to today. it Is believed by local
loan officials that probably the quota
asked Of this city would have been
obtained.
