especially by those who participated
during the entire drive. We are glad
to say that the editor of The Herald
was there every day, save one-that
day we dropped in home to get out
The Herald of the 18th, and we
wouldn't have missed II for the
world. Aside from the great patriotic
good the trip did, it was wonderful
to see our country at this season of
the year. 1t looked mighty good and
the people are just as good as the
country. They gave the boosters a
great reception everywhere we went
and did their duty, which is best of
all.
We had hoped to be able to give
an accurate account of the sale of
bonds at each point but that is not
possible this week. however, we can
say that old Beaver county went
over the top" most gloriously. Our
quota was 100000, and we will
more than reach 1t. Later. II pos
sible. we will give the amounts as
subscribed at each point.
The Red Cross reaped great re-
ward in money as well as the ever
lasting gratitude of the boosters for
the splendid meals they served. Fully
$500 must have been added to the
treasury by the meals at various
points, and how the boosters could
have made the trip without the help
of the Red Cross is hard to tell for
eating places are not always avail
able. No wonder the Sammies ap-
preciate the American Red Cross.
We found il great help and almost
a necessity here at home.
