North Dakota Has Highest
Mark For Second War Drive

Now that the final figures for
the second war fund drive have
been received, first honors in the
Northern Division go to North
Dakota.
North Dakota gave a grand
total of $645, O36.38, 1923 per cent
of it's allotment, $54O,375.67 of
which was cash. This is the lar
gest per capita subscription of
any state in the Division, and
one of the highest in the Unit
ed States. It represents sacri-
flee on the part of approximate
ly 131,347 people. But, aside
from the splendid spirit shown,
success was due to the efficient
and systematic manner in which
the campaign was handled. The
total expenses amounted to
$677.81, a little over one-tenth
of one per cent.
Of the counties, Cass county
raised the largest sum. It over
subscribed it's quota by more
than so per cent, making it $751;
844.70. Grand Forks county
