no exaggeration to say his most in

something more than the mere de

Her home is in Chicago. When

FARMERS OFFER
LARGE SUPPORT
Executive Committeeman for Fourth
Liberty Lean Campaign Com
mends Rural Residents.

The farmers of the west end of
Rock Island county have given
splendid support TO the fourth Lib
erty loan campaign, declared
member of the county executive
committee today.
While they are not yet through
with their task of rounding up the
subscriptions, he said, neverthe-
less the committees working in the
rural districts have done so well
that there is no question but that
the eight townships in that juris-
diction will each succeed its quota.
In fact, according to this official,
it can be safely announced they
are already over.
In many other counties, it was
alleged, the rural district had to be
worked from one of the larger cit
les as a center, the responsibility
devolving upon the management in
those cities. This was not the case,
however, in Rock Island county.
At the very outset of the campaign
the section of country territory
tributary to this city was separate
Iy organized, and throughout the
whole drive these men have taken
the sole responsibility of seeing
that their townships came across
in a liberal manner
The committee at headquarters
in this city backed up the country
management, furnishing speakers
and singers when requested and
seeing that the various canvassing
teams were properly equipped with
supplies. However, all the meet
ings were planned for and arrang-
ed by the respective township
chairmen and their subcommittee
and it is safe to say that never be-
fore in the history of the county
has there been such an admirable
spirit of cooperation and helpful
ness manifested among the resi-
dents of the rural territory as in
the present campaign, which is still
continuing.
Frank T. Sherman of Reynolds is
the county vice chairman in gen
eral charge of the country district
under the jurisdiction of
the Rock Island branch of the sew
enth federal reserve district. AS
sisting him in the different town
ships is an executive committee
which attends TO all matters con-
corning their particular townships.
These township committees,
whose work has been so pre-emin-
emily successful, are as follows:

Bedford, Guy Hutchinson.
