(From Sundays Daily)

Rcflecting the good organization work of Chairman F. s. Viele and co-workers, the local campaign foi the Fourth Liberty Loan opened yesterday morning with bang that, before the fuss is over, will be heard in bcnighted Berlin.
 Women workers Boy Scouts. bankers and private citizens from all walks of life were out in force to see to 1t that no one was overlooked. One woman reported S3,500 in before noon: another 5000, and a third. securing a Sl,000 subscription bright and early from former Governor Tom Campbell, followed this with other subscriptions which brought her total above 5000 in an hour.
 The little Fourth Liberty Loan but tons soon began appearing in grow ing numbers upon the coat lapels of the men and blouses of the women, while It every prominent corner volunteer workers brought to the at tention of passersby the opportunity of making a splendid investment, and at the same time doing bit to- ward the winning of the war.
 That Old Yavapai is already re- garded as the banner county of the state in Liberty Loan drives would seem indicated by a letter received from the chairman of the State Lib erty Loan committee, in which he asks that marked copies of the Jour nal-Miner containing an outline of the local committees organization work be sent to chairmen of various other county committees, presumab- ly that they may thus discover how it is done" He also announced that Yavapai county is the only one SO. far for which he has full data as to honor flags, and that these flags will be forwarded to the various county districts as rapidly as they report subscriptions of the amount entitling them to this honor.

 To begin with, that sum will enable the government to feed ono of Yava- pai's boys "Ovcr There" for seven months. Or it will outfit anothes local lad with winter and summer clothing, shoes, socks, ''slicker. overcoat and blankets, with enough left over to buy him ono of thosS wicked automatic. rcvolvers with which he clears out the captured German trench.
 If yoI purchase a second SlO0 bond tomorrow, in addition to feeding O. clothing him and arming him with a revolver, you can chalk up for your. self the satisfaction of having equip ped him with one of those straight shooting rifles he knows how to use with such deadly effect, and 1,0Oci rounds of ammunition for 1t, besides leaving enough to purchase him a hand grenade or two. Who knows how many Huns your rifle and l,OOOi cartridges will account for in the hands of your proxy? But YOU l know how easily he would fall vic tim to the well-equippcd enemy if Inc did not have that rifle and those cartridges.
 Don't let him be that victim, Gird on your financial armor and storr. the trenches of the Fourth Liberty | Loan solicitors Monday for that sec ond bond.
