HALLOWELL WILL
COME THROUGH
IN LIBERTY LOAN

Since the big. enthusiastic Libe-ty
Loan meeting last Sunday the Journal
has been asked many times How is the
campaign coming on in Halloween? We
are glad to be able 10 answer this all
important question emphaticaly with
one word: Splendidly!
The executive committee is made up OF
IF. s. Wngate, Judge Beane and II. P.
Clearwater, and the charmen Of the
several district committees are II. W.
Reed, r. ". Harvey. II. f. Andrews. d.
C.. Skiliin and S. B. Grimes. Working
with them is a force of 43 solicitors.
Already subscriptions total a substan-
tial amount. Hallowell has made
splendid showing in both the previous
Liberty Loans as we'll as in Red Cross
contributions and there has never been
any question in the minds Of the COM
m;ttee for raising our part OF the Third
Liberty Loan Of the ability, willingness
and intention OF the men and women
of Hallowell to do it. However, no one
will be satisfied unless we exceed our
allotment by many thousands. and this
Is the goal for which we as communi-
ty are now striving.
The entire city and outlying districts
have been carefully card indexed and
zach solicitor Is allotted definite num-
her of people to call upon With this
system no one will be omitted in the
canvass. All will be asked personally
and given opportunity to subscribe. All
the solicitors and heads of committees
come together each day at $50 and re-

LIST indeed-a list in which your name

Broad" speaking. Il IS safe to say
that in the entire city there is no man
or woman who is employed or who has
an income at the present time who can
not manage to buy at least one Of the
smaller denomination bonds. In some
cases it may mean a little sacrifice, but
now If ever is time for sacrifice
there has been altogether too little of
it up to the present.
The four intensive days of the whrl-
wind campaign will be Sunday, Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday, it being the
intention of the committees that the
work by fully completed during those
days. Yon should be ready with a
quick and hearty yes when the solicitor
calls on you: or, better still turn in
your subscription to any member of the
committee or to either of the banks
without waiting for the solicitor to call.
This will save their time and allow
them to be working elsewhere.
