423 Loyal Citizens Have So
Far Participated in Vic
tory Loan Bonds.
HALF THE DISTRITS
in COUNTY ARE OVER
Quota Must Be Still Further
Oversubscribed to Make
Up Deficiency.

Although Henry county has over
subscribed the Victory Loan, as per
statement compiled Wednesday night
by R. l.. Dunlap, sales director, Col.
O. C. Barton, the county chairman,
specifically urged The Partisan re-
porter to say in the news-story this
week that it was very essential that
the oyersubscription should proceed
as throughout the nation the Loan is
less than half way subscribed, and
only two days now to go.
Henry County's quota of $253,000
has been attained, and figures We'd
nesday night show the total am punt
of bonds signed for to be $306, 400,
an oversubscription of $48,1O0, or a.
bout 20 percent.
There are IL Of the 25 Victory
Loan districts in Henry county that
are now cover the top. Five of
them were reported in this paper last
week. The IL include the 1st, End,
4th, 5th, 7th, 9th, 18th, 18th, 14th,
10th, 18th, and 25th.

up Wednesday night with $16,450,
1873 of them having signed for bonds
in various denominations, The
county has 240 subscribers, making
the total number of subscribers to
date 423.,
| Sign Cards And
Turn In At Once.
Sales Director Dunlap urges those
who have not signed subscription
cards to do so at once, and turn them
over to the district chairman. He
says that much work is yet to be done
and that the nation is only about
half attained the quota; that the
9Th district including West Tennes-
see has only reached 70 percent of
the quota; that subscriptions are
coming in slow where war activities
have ceased, and it is necessary for
Henry county to oversubscribe the
limit.

Japan clearly understands her re-

The marquis pointed out that Japan
had gained q reputation as a militarist
and aggressive nation which was due
partly to sinister propaganda by inter-
ested parties, and partly because she
had prosecuted two successful wars
since she opened her doors to foreign
intercourse
THAT Japan should be made the
object Of distrst and misunderstanding"
he added. 'is immensely injurious to
Japan, and not less unfortunate for the
foreign nations whose policy in the Far
East is influenced by this erroneous es-
innate. It is Of paramount Importance
that Japan should correct this mistaken
jurgment abroad. while the people Of
Japan should exercise the utmost care
in all their domestic and international
undertakings to demonstrate the real ma
tional ideals Of Japan. which arc entire
ly opposed to militarism or aggression"
