AIRPLANE Will
BOMB OUR CITY
Will be Paper Bombs to Ad-
vertise Fourth Liberty
Loan

The local publicity department for
the liberty loan work in Henry coun-
ty this week received telegram from
Arthur Segel, of st. Louis, who is the
director of the feature advertising of
the Liberty Loan Organization, in
which an airplane was definitely
promised to Henry county to be used
in connection with the Liberty Loan
work.
The telegram is as follows:
"Airplane will be in Paris Octo-
Der 9Th, if weather permits"
According to the understanding
Of the Publicity Committee when an
airplane is utilized in such work
unique advertising. in the nature of
paper bombs are dropped from the
plane while it is at high altitude
doing the stunts" which thrill and in
terest the spectators.
The plans have not all been for
mulated for the day but it is given
out with authority that every effort
will be made to see that the day is an
enjoyable one as we'll as profitably
spent,
1t is the desire and expectation Of
those having the matter in charge to
effect sales in Paris on that day to
the sum of $10O,O00,0O.
To the end that no stone will be
left unturned the following are ta-
king the matter of plans under adj
visement:
COL O. C. Barton and H. L. Bruce,
county chairman and vice-chairman,
respectively. R. L. Dunlap, sales di-
rector; J. c. Porter, chairman of the
Bankers Committee; DR.. Geo. L.
Powers, city chairman; Joe Wein-
baum, secretary of the Executive
Committee; John R. Rison, Jr., and
j. I. Gatlin, of the Publicity Com
mittee; Mrs. @. E. Routon, chairman
for the Woman's Division, together
with their lieutenants and advisers.
Since the plane will be here for
the special purpose of advertising
the Liberty Loan, it is expected that
there will be several flights during
the day, and many of the maneuvers
which the aviators resort to on the
battlefield will be carried out, and in
addition to many little frills will be
added that would likely be Eliminated
in the interesting work of whipping
the Hun.
1t is expected that large crowd of
people will be here for the occasion
and the various committees are expec-
ting the pledges to be made for the
bonds in liberal manner on the oc-
casion.

Sunday night, at the Dixie Theatre
one of the largest audiences which
ever assembled there, was present for
the purpose of subscribing for the
Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds.
All of the available seats were ia.
ken, beth on the lower floor and in
thap}aes sffyl and people stood about
.baa, As and at the exists, and many
were turned away for want Of even
standing room.
]. Sam Johnson, one of Carroll
connty's leading citizens, gave q
splendid address which was an i'm
passioned appeal for purchasers for
the current issue of Liberty Bonds.
There were other speakers who
spoke briefly on the subject and a
number of representative citizens
went through the audience securing
the pledges.
While the pledges were being ta-
ken Master Mechanic r. H. Hogan
was introduced and he spoke of a
confidence born of experience that
the railroad men would subscribe lib
orally.
When the pledges were counted,
they amounted to $27,5O0, and on
Monday people who had not been
able to attend brought up the sub
scription to about 100000
Including the more than $4,000
subscribed at the bankers meeting
reported in this paper last week, the
subscriptions on last night and those
handed in at the banks Saturday, the
volunteer subscriptions to be count
ed on the two opening days are like
ly more than $65.000.
This is very gratifying to all inter-
ested as this is so much better than
was done on the opening days of the
other loans that it would indicate that
the loan will be easily floated.
The reports from other neighbor-
hoods are splendid, which shows that
the interest in every section of the
country is on the increase and that
the people are in dead earnest in do
ing their "bit" in this way.
Speakers went out to practically
every school and church in Henry

accorded aplendid hearing and the
