 Reports from various parts of the state to State Director II. R. Trtle indicated yesterday that Arizona will SC well over the top of the mark set for this state. The Baby State Is Buying Baby Bonds' said Alr. Tritie last evening. and is buying them with just the same spirit and patriotic interest that has marked every other movement calculated to aid in the prosecution of the war to a success ful cuimnatiun. Arizona is rising full ly Go the demands and bids fair to exceed by a large margin the mark sct for tho Baut state.
 Just now it seems that Arizona Is buying Baby Bonds and thrift stamps at the rate of not less than $S0.000 worth daily This means that there will be no difficulty in passing the S7,2j0o00 mark which has been set, that is if the same spirit, that Is being manifested now, continues throughout the drive"
 The Hotel Adams booth yesterday took the prize for the days work. The total for this booth alone amount ed Co $1OiS.3S The big boost for . this booth came when Carl II. Ander- son. representing the Arizona Mutual ] automobile in urance company, | pIankcd down his personal check for | SS26 and received in return $1000 | worth of baby bonds.
 "Why heres a rhcck written in odd | numbers It's for $S.26, and I won der vhy' said Miss Henrietta Olney ! and Miss kirie Craig in the same | breath.
 " No, it's for $s2so," said Miss Craig. Why my goodness. cant you read | plain figures2' inquired Miss Olney |. That check is for $S26 and it means | We have sold $1,OO0 worth of bonds" Then there was d scramble. Miss | Olnoy and Miss Craig did not have l. anywhere near that amount of stamps 1 on hand and a hurry call was sent ! 10 the postoffice for more baby bonds i and stamps. Soon the bonds arrived and were turned over to MT. Ander- son. This large single purchase by MT Anderson came about as the carrying out of the first pledge made in the campaign for the organization of what is to be known as the Arizona Limit Investment club" State Director Harry R. Tritc yesterday announced that clubs would be organized throughout the entire state The ap- Ie1 IL tory reads as follows: q hereby make application for membership in the Arizona Limit h. Vestment club and pledge myself to buy, during the year 1918. the sum or one thousand dollars, maturity value, C. $. War Savings Stamps out of savings effected by me. l will ad wise the state director when my pledge has been fulfilled"
 The first of these clubs has al ready been organized with J. W. sullivan, a well known cattleman, as president. Vice presidents will be named for each county, as well as secretaries for each of these subdi- visions. Lou CharIebois has already been named by President Sullivan as vice president for COconino county Other appointments will be announced in a day or two.
 Carl H. Anderson was the first to sign the pledge and he at once made good his pledge by hurrying over to the Hotel Adams and handing his check to the young woman in charge of tho booth there. James Cashion has been named as one of President SulliVan's lieutenants and he will probably sign one of the pledges. President Sullivan has virtually agreed that he win sign a pledge as soon as he returns to this city. An other pledge has already been signed hy l. J. Johnson for the New York Life Insurance company. And the movement has not even been well started. Before many days it is eX- pected that at least 1000 of these pledges will have been signed which will, mean the sale of $1,000000 worth of bonds will be assured from that source.
