They Did What They Could.
La July Q

Editor Collar Chronicle:
In issue Of June 20 there ap-
peared a deserving tribute to the
parties who took War Saving
Stamps to the limit of one thou
sand dollars. by publishing their
names. To which l find no fault.
1t is doing honor where honor is
due. but the plan leaves out
higher standard of patriotism
than the men who were able to
take the full allowance. For
this of course the Chronicle is
not responsible.
There are great many men,
and some widows. who stood in
their respective fields. where
they could see the blight on their
crops Of the wind that was blow
ing. the destruction Of the boil
weevil on their cotton, the Irish
potato crop gathered and rotting
for want of a market, and added
to this. a majority of them had
spent the last dollar that they
had borrowed to make their crops
yet they pledged themselves to
take War Stamps to the limit
of their average crop. This is
condition, and these are the par
ties from whom the burden of
the allotment of Montgomery
came. and these are the men
who are entitled to the praise for.
our going ''over the top" in ward
seven. The former cast in of
their abundance, but the latter
| Of their want did cast in all they
had, even all their living. If
any class of men deserve mem
ltion and praise for patriotism
these arr the men that deserve it,
i j ~ s Mint 81 "a
tout to make the drive for $50. 600
las the allotment for Montgom-
cry, we were agreed that it could
not be done, but were determin-
ed to do our best. and the result
was a complete victory.
Now, the question arises. who
did it? 1t was the takings Of the
large and small buyers; without
the large purchasers it would
have been a failure, and without
the small takings it would have
been a worse failure.
Knowing these facts, / am
sure that / am expressing the
sentiment and appreciation of ev-,
cry man in ward seven, and for
the encouragement to men who
took until lit hurt" / want to
say that you stand in the front
ranks of those at home who are
dong their ''bit'' to help our
boys win this terrible war. The
taking Of the savings stamps is
the voice Of nearly one hundred
million people endorsing our
great chief magistrate. and in it
we speak through our children
for generations to come. We
fully realize that it will Cypress
some during the remainder of
this year, but it is safe and
profitable investment that will
very soon bring relief.
BY the time our savings ma
ture we pray that this struggle
that is trying mems souls will
have ended long enough for our
griefs and injuries to assuage
sufficiently 10 say we are sorry
that our country was forced into
this war, but we are not sorry
that our boys responded to the
call of our country. for those who
come back will be men to be
honored the world over as a SOL
der has never been honored be-
foreS and for those who will not
return we can only be resigned
and say
