soliciting the sale Of bonds, every res
ident Of the county will receive let
ter this week explaining the Fourth
Liberty Bond issue, and giving his in
dividual quota, and also designating

I once appeal to every citizen Of the
county, since it will eliminate much
hard work on the part Of certain men
who are called upon by the govern
