Mar Savings Stamps Must Be
PLEDGED

For the first time in any of the
war activities Jackson county has
fallen down in doing her part.
The returns are in and show that
our county has failed to raise, or
pledge, the amount OF War Say
ings Stamps assigned to US. 1t
is absolutely necessary tnat the
amount of our COunty'S quota be
pledged at once and under in
StructiOnS from the National War
Saving Committee an allotment
has been made for every person
in the county, and ii is necessary
that cards be signed up tor these
amounts at once. Jackson Coun-
ty is compelled to raise Sal $4,000
and every resident of the county
should call on their local director
or at their bank and sign up for
the amounts assigned to them.
This must be done at once so
that the cards can be in the hands
of the County Director before the
20th of August and the report
sent to the State Director by that
date.
1t is just as necessary that each
one take their share of War
Saving Stamps as it is to purchase
the amount of Liberty Bonds as
signed to y-u.
