these are the real slogans for the cam

iastic meeting of the Kenosha COM
mittee held on Tuesday evening at the
Council Chamber in the City Hall.
More than a hundred leaders Of Keno
sha and Kenosha county were present
and aided in formulating the plans for
putting over the great loan in Keno
sha county and every member of the
committee left the meeting believing
that the supreme call of the nation
would be met to the last dollar by Ke-
nosha people.
At the meeting the justice Of our
cause and the urgent need of the sup
port of this cause by every man and
woman in the nation was strongly
presented by the speakers, including
Charles G. Brown, general chairman Of
the Kenosha County Committee, E. J.
Carney Of Milwaukee, State leader of
the Liberty Loan Campaign and Rob
ert N. McMynn Of Milwaukee who is
at the head of the Wisconsin Speakers
Bureau.
Visiting speakers brought congratu
IIations to Kenosha for the splendid
showing that this county has made in
taking care of former loans and they
expressed the conviction that Kenosha
county would not be found laggard
in meeting the new call which the ma
tion is making.
Wisconsin has been proud Of Keno
sha county, declared chairman Car
Iney. sit is the focus county, the
corner county and as such it has point
ed the way for Wisconsin in every
patriotic call which has been made.
1t has given literally of its men and
its money and its contribution to the
war has been notable. Kenosha county
may be one of the smallest counties
/ in Wisconsin, but its page in war his
I tory is going to be one of the brightest
pages in the whole history of Wiscon-
sin Is contribution to the great world
struggle for Democracy"
In one of the most eloquent patriot
appeals ever made in Kenosha Mr.. Nc
Mynn outlined the campaign for the
sale of the new bonds.
He strongly emphasized the neces-
sity of driving home to every man and
woman in Kenosha county that this
was an individual war; That ev-
cry one of us must be fighting men and
women bearing our part right along
the line with the men who are fighting
in the trenches.
"The great need now, - said Mr.. Nc
Mynn, land it is easier every day,
lis to convince every one of US that we,
individually, ere at war with the en-
emies. Every one of us, if we can
realize that each one of us, that we
are already In the thick of it, not in
the way of encouragement, not in the
way Of worry, fear, anxiety, faith,
hope. And if we can think Of it ev-
lery day that we live that each one of
us is actually at war and must con
duct himself, personally, as soldier
| lighting, that is great help.
/ Heretofore it has been the PROPOSE
ton, "We must win the war" Now
lit is "We are winning the war" We
have started, we have gone over the
real top of the crisis, and that is a
splendid point to hammer in, especially
in connection with Liberty Bonds.
I rode down a day or two ago with
a red-blooded friend of mine. I said,
{" What do you think is the strong point
on which to sell the coming issue of
Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds9" He
said, 'sWe are winning the war. -
And I tell you that that appealed to
me strong. It is good buy, it is a
good purchase, and we are winning.
There is a lot of security in that.
Yes we are winning, and we must
keep on winning. We must help in
every way and must do this in order
that we may match up here at home
