CONSCIENCE TO
Determine DUTY
TO next LOAN
Each Citizen Must Square
Conscience With Amount
Subscribed Says Committee

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
not only will be Liberty Bond days,
but they have been designated as
Conscience Days.
If citizen can square his con-
science with the subscription he takes
in this Liberty Loan drive" said a
member of the committee today, "he
will have done his full duty to his
country. In other words let every
citizen on these three days ask him
self whether he has subscribed to
the utmost of his ability. His con-
science will send back the answer and
there will be no mistaking it's accu-
racy."
Demas S. Coe. Wayne county chair
man, today received a telegram from
Indiana headquarters, stating that
every county in the state within the
jurisdiction Of the Seventh federal
district, was in readiness for the big
drive. We are confident that Wayne
county will be among the first to an
nounce its quota" says the telegram
from w. H. Wade. state director
land we are hopeful that your three
days campaign will bring the results
anticipated
Townships Getting Ready.
Some of the townships in Wayne
county already are under full head
of steam and in Center township more
than two-thirds of the quota fixed was
in sight Saturday night Center
township, which has always been one
of the most responsive in the county
to all patriotic undertakings, has an
air-tight organization, with plenty of
enthusiasm behind it.
None of the other townships have
submitted any sort of report as yet,
but they will begin to roll in by
Wednesday afternoon and for the re-
mainder of the week the committee
anticipates a perfect stream of sub
scriptions.
In the city various ward meetings of
Liberty Loan workers have been held
during the last week and several such
meetings are scheduled for this even
ing. City Chairman Campfield who
has been confined to his home with
illness expected to be back in the har-
ness today or tomorrow.
Richmond banks received many
subscriptions on Saturday and today.
and some of the city committees have
Methods Of Subscribing.
Instructions given solicitors all
over the city and county are that they
must impress on subscribers the ne
cessity of calling on the bank through
which they expect to buy their bonds
within the two or three days after
they have made their subscriptions.
This is necessary in order that the
plan of payment may be mutually
agreed on between the bank and the
purchasers. There are three ways of
paying for bonds: First, paying all
cash, if the purchaser desires; second,
by taking advantage Of the govern
ment plan, which calls for 10 per
cent installment on or before October
"a and four subsequent installments,
the last to be 80 per cent. on or before
Januray 80, 1919; third, by the weekly
or monthly payment plan. which is
designed especially for subscribers of
small amounts
Go to your banker and ask him to
explain the various ways of buying
bonds. They are as much interested
as you or any members of the ward
committees in seeing that the quota
is raised and they will assist you in
finding way to own the best secur-
ty in the world-a Liberty Bond that
will not only satisfy your feeling of
but which will bring you
a fixed dividend
