 conaratuIations for DrysdaIe.
 Clifton, Ariz., Nov. p, 1918. MT. Geo. R. Drysdale, Chairman, Greenlee, County Campaign Committee United War Work Fund, Clifton, Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 I desire to congratulate you and your district chairmen and commit tees on the splendid results which Greenlee county achieved in the cam paign just closed.
 The amount which this county was originally asked to contribute to- wards the $306,0O0 % from the state was s25, ,129. %. We are later asked to oversubscribe this quota by 50 per cent. The amount subscribed, as re- ported bv you. is, approximately $4S, $50. %, which sum may be still further increased when all returns are in.
 Thus, instead of oversubscribing it's quota only 50 per cent, Greenlee county appears to have oversubscrib- ed its quota 93 per cent.
 Such a showing not only reflects the greatest credit on your organiza- tion, and is a tribute to its efficiency, but it also reflects the deep interest that the people of this county take in the welfare of our boys lover here," and is a fitting expression of their loyalty to them.s
 I heartily thank yourself and all the good people of Greenee county for this noble response.
 Yours very truly,
 NORMAN CARMICHAEL, Chairman State Campaign Committee

S10O0 or over

Greenlee county being one of the first four counties to report getting it's quota, and being among the four counties securing the largest over subscription in proportion to its quota has undoubtedly won one of the honor trucks.
 By seeing the name of our State on two honor huts and the name of Green lee on one of the honor trucks, our boys lover there" will have cause to be proud of their State and county and will feel happy in the realization that their friends at home are gener- ously considerate of their welfare and determined to back them up to the fullest extent possible until their re- turn home.
 Yours very truly,
 NORMAN CARMICHAEL, Chairman State Campaign Committee.

him how | would know when | had a
