TANK APPEALS
FOR MORE N
Banks and Public Offices as
Well as Schools Close
in Afternoon.

In accordance with the proclama-
tions of President Wilson, Governor
Frazier and Mayor H. Nj. Wheeler,
Grand Forks city today celebrated
Liberty Day which here indicates that
the third Liberty Loan campaign has
been brought to a successful close,
and in other sections of the country
Is mea to stimulate further interest
insthe drive.
The Avery tank" a true replica of
the terror-strking fighting machines
which the British introduced on the
european battlefields. appeared in the
city streets shortly before . o'clock
this afternoon to make a final appeal
for bond subscriptions. 1t was this
etank" which proved one of the
greatest hits when it went booming
the city's Win-the-Wa Day demon
stration as one of the most pictures
que features of the parade.
Few Sores Closed.
The p~ostofice. all the banks. the
schools. the county and municipal Of
fees were closed this 2afternoon. but
closing was not general among the
merchants of the city.
. An inquiry. among 25 of the largest
stores in the city resulted in the in
formation that only two closed dur
Ing the afternoon. In some cases.
merchants We're at a loss as to what
70 do because nc agreement had been
previously made regarding concerted
action. 1t was pointed out that while
Mayor Wheeler's proclamation, in &C
cOrdance with traditional usage.
urged firms and business houses
throughout thereby to close. there
was a strong opinion favoring the OPP
posite course. for. as some merchants
said. .'it's a cinch that the Liberty
loan committee can take better care
of its fnal work with the stores open
than when they are closed"
Generally speaking the day was not
observed rs a holiday in the usual
sense. and there were but few indi-
cations outside the closing of public

and banking Institutions. showing
that a holiday spirit was abroad.
One ONCE Kept Wide Open.

ANpgHsxN O1bG " &ANkSv W bSA0 OkOhAs 'HaHas.
There was n ofice where every
body present agreed that the doors
should be swinging more widely open
than ever before during the past two
weeks. That was the. headquarters OF
the third IL liberty Loan campaign in
tho basement of the First National
Bank building where the entire sales
force was kept on hand taking care
of ell applicants who came, and dt-
recting the movements of the boy
scouts and some of the soliciting
teams going around to call on people
who had not yet Invested in q Liberty
Loan bond.
The campaign will close officially
early this evening, and 1T is already
now considered one OF the most re-
markable drives. among all those
which, for patriotic purposes, have
been arranged here during the past
year.
The leaders Of the Liberty Loan
drive agree that the citizens OF, Grand
Forks exhibited an excellent spirit, in
the way they welt over the top"
There was more enthusiasm. more
and a number Of subscriptions came
unsolicited while other subscribers to
whom had been allotted certain
amounts purchased considerably
more, than was askedtof them. =
Mayors Proclamation.
In keeping with the spirit of the
day, Mayor Wheeler last night issued
the fo.lowink proclamation:
an conformity with the expressed
desire of President Wilson hat April
goth be observed as a holiday to slim
ulate interest in the Third Liberty
Loan. J.. therefore. decree that the city
offices shall close at noon today and
that all employees SO far as their du-
ties permit. observe the same In the
spirit indicated. l also request and
urge that all firms and business
houses within the city pursue a like
course.
