.ricts about Milford. the local chairmen
nave already made arrangements for
schOOlhOuse meetings, while at Lewes
he plans have been advanced so that
Z successful drive Is anticipated. The
Georgetown district has been sub-divid-
ID into forty subdivisions with two
sanvassers TO the district.
Many OF the representative districts
are hoping by their strenuous efforts,
10 "go over the top" with their quotas
OF sales within a few days. The men
and women. both organizations OF
which are working for the same sue
cess. will enter into a friendly rivalry
20 secure hOnors for their district.
A meeting Of the executives Of the
Fourth Liberty Loan for Sussex county
will be held in the court house, at
Georgetown, tomorrow afternoon. At
that meeting the county chairman and
all Of the sub-chairmen for each repre-
sentative district will be in attendance,
as well as the bankers and other promi-
nent business men OF the county infer
ested in pushing the loan drive. A
nrominent Philadelphia banker will be
present at the meeting and will address
The men upon the different phases OF
the loan. A representative OF the Lib
erty Loan committee from headquar-
ters, Of the reserve district, in Philadel-
phla. will also give much information
Of value to the men present. This meet
ing has been called for the purpose Of
putting the finishing touches upon the

what Is being done throughout Sussex
