 Shortly after noon, and only few hours after the quota had been an' nounCed, two telegrams from Para gould told of the activities of the Lib erty Loan workers. A. Bertig, chair man of the Greene County organiza- ton, wired headquarters that the quota was raised and a large over. subscription was expected. short while later joint telegram from the banks and trust companies to Chair man Compton confirmed the telegrwm of MT.

COPIED BY THE FRENCH

The Paris paper, Figaro, is quoted as having put cut this thought in con. nection with the floating of the next French loan:
 Lets have this time an American loan campaign in the streets in the homes and in the fields, even nor, than in the towns. In the United States everyone knows if his neighbor has subscribed and how much, and each strives to outdo his neighbor We must create the same spirit"
 If the French. who have so ably financed the war heretofore. are now to copy our method, how much more is it up to these United States in the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign to so efficiently organize the drive that it cannot fail at any point.

CONTINUOUS BOND BOOSTERS

The opening of the Fourth Liberty Bond campaign has revealed the fact that many pastors and churches over the country have worked continuously as Liberty Bond boosters from the first instead of resting from their la. bors in the interims of the issues. Between the issues there were no bonds to buy, but the Government would soon need another loan from the people and it was well to be ready Then, there was that 'bubbling" spirit of patriotism that would not keep un- der cover. Tho large and generous re- sponse 10 the Governments calls has been due largely to this spirit in her citizens.
