Many people we're stunned yester-

for they had failed to realize that tae
stamp quota for this city was almost
as large as a bond quota. In the
Second ward. particularly, where many
men were allotted $1,000 each, and 4
few more than that, there was con
sternation for q while until each IN
dividual realized that $1,000 maturity
value meant only $s44 net cash, ana
that he could deduct all the stamps on
hand within the family. One man VINO
came in to raise a roar to the COM
mittee for assessing" him $1,000 &c
ceived his first surprise when told that
he could buy $1,000 worth OF war
stamps for ss44. He was then jolted
