War Savings Stamps.

The War Savings administration
announces that there are between
thirty and thirty-four millions OF peo-
pie buying War Savings and Thrift
stamps. Through July '26th the re-
ceipts from this source amounted to
$4S7, 100000. The July receipts We're
S179, ,008,000 or more than one-fourth
of the whole, so it is easy to see that
the June campaign gave a great impe-
tuS TO the work.
z a poster is being prepared and sent
out by the War Savings Committee to
remind people that they were pledged
to buy and that the pledge must not
be overlooked. Many States in the
union are in the same fix that Sumter
county is in, the June campaign dld
mot pledge the quota and the work
ers are keeping on taking pledges and
making sales.
Pledges are still coming into the 10
cal chairman, but there are many yet
who have not been reached. Every
district director should see that his
workers always have few pledge
cards with them SO that they can slge
unpledged parties whenever they meet
them. Many who have signed foi
good large amounts have already re-
deemed their pledges.
A War Savings buyer. should not
stop because he has bought as much
assoc has pledged, unless OF course
Il g was the limit II he has bought
in a, lump sum, then he should begin
gradual but steady buyings in small

chase of a weekly amount Will soon

suits.

To the Editor of The State:
Lieut. Robert O. Purdy. the news OF
whose death in the battle now raging
in France. has just reached US, was
a son of South Carolina in whom all
Of US may take pride.
He was singularly free from those
habits that wreck the lives Of so mary
young men.
He did not belong to that class who
had any doubt of the justice Of Amer
ica's cause. Believing that Germany
had given us no choice but to fight he
offered himself to his country and nov
has made the supreme sacrifice ior
liberty and humanity. -,
The University of South Carolina
has sent many of her sons to DEFEND
Justice and avenge the wrongs OF hu-
nanity but in none Of them did tee
spirit burn brither than in Robert

Dear Mrs. Shaw:
IT'S with deep regret that I write,
telling you of your brave sons mis-
fortune. I would like TO hold out
some even small hopes but fear that
would be unfair. On the evening OF
sth July in Bristol No. 3 ILL, 1t.
Shaw with Sgt. Smith as observer
went out on single machine recon-
naissance (that means alone). When
he failed to return we made all in
curry and were told by observers on
the ground near our front line that
they had seen one Bristol fighting its
way back against three enemy scouts.
after long struggle the Bristol was
seen to fall in pieces in the air. We
all feel Shaw's loss badly as he was
one of our very bravest and coolest
lads, always CHEEKY and stout-heartea
no matter what work was wanted.
He shot down two enemy scouts
during hard fighting and would have
won honors had he been allowed to
continue his good work a1oft.
Please accept ALL As Squadron's
deep felt sympathy.
Yours sincerely,
X. r. Park, Major.

that will give to the public the de-
tails OF the information that havf
