Committee Pledged to Put the
Capital City Over the
Top Next Week
MUST SUBSCRIBE $l75, 100000
No Child's Play About 1000
Allotment for BurIeigh
County

Every man woman and child in Bur.
leigh county owes Uncle Sam 1865
for War Savings Stamps. Eurleish
is just this mrch per capita behind in
its subscription to Dab.; bonds. the
allotment is $40 per capita, and Eur
leigh's per capita subscription is $3.0l.
At this, the county stands enth in
the state. The trouble with the War
Savings Stamps, the f3ur1eigh county
committee finds, is that the people
have been prone to regard them as a
25.cent instead of u p dollar prop0si-
ton. AS a matter of fact, the War
Savings Stamp drive is the stiffest
problem Uncle SAM Nas offered Bur
leigh county since We 50; into the war.
The allotment for this county is $685.
600, and for Risnlarck city SiI5.oU3.
Both are larger than the quotas set
for any OF the previous Liberty loans.
and the w. s. S. committee fee's that
the time has come Wan the couot.
must be aroused 10 the importance of
this Baby Bond drive.
Must Go the Limit.
At meeting of the general W
s. committee for Bismarck in the
Commercial club rooms last evening,
special cOmmitte was appointed tho
task of sending Bismarck over the top.
This committee will launch an intens-
i've drive next Monday morning, and
before the campaign is closed every
man. and women in bismarck will
have been given an opportunity to
subscribe not only their quota but
their limit. Because there are so
many who cannot take their $50 per
capita allowance, there are many, who
can afford it, who must double, or
treble or qladruple their allotment.
,rhe fact that some of our. biggest and
brainiest business men are going the
limit is proof not only of their patriot
ism but that they consider $1,000
worth of baby, bonds; q good invest.
mept. II 41,0gO worth OF baby bonds
is q good buy for the man who can af-
ford them, 800 worth are. equally
kood for the man who cannot afford
moro. ~ ,#S
