Whoever bought the corner post that

nuired venerable curiosity. The post

A very large proportion of the coun-
ties in the Southern States have adept
ed the individual quota system for the
Victory Loan, and expect thereby to
distribute the investments In securi-
ties over wider ground. BY this sys-
tenn, every citizen will be assigned a
definite quota which he is expected to
take, just as states and counties have
their quotas. This viii be based on
his income and property. and will be
subject TO change by local appeals
committee If he feels his quota has
been fixed at too high a figure.
IN previous campaigns, counties
which used the individual quota, plan
went uver the top quickly and by a
large margin. without placing the bur
den OF heavy Investments on compar-
atively few patriotic citizens. This
plan makes every man feel certain that

Wood Ships More
Than Made Good

New York, N. Y, April %. ""The
wooden ships we have viii make
many trips and as an emergency ship
they have been of great service"
said Edward N. Hurley, chairman of
the U. S. Shipping Board, in an adj
dress before the National Marine
League in this city March 27, 1919.
eve now have lis wooden ships in
service. Although they are not suit
ed to compete with fast steel liners
in the transatlantic trade, they will
continue to be of service in many
other trades. The existing world
shortage of tonnage is sufficient
guaranty Of this.
Insofar as seawerthiness is con-
cerned, wish to point out that while
we have sustained four total marine
losses among our wooden ships, we
have sustained five among our steel
ships. OF these total losses one
wood ship and one steel ship foun-
dered at sea in heavy weather. so
that on the score of seaworthiness
the honors are even. The other to-
tai losses were due to strandirg or
collision, accidents as likely to hap
pen to a steel ship as to wooden
one. At any rate if The war had
gone on until 1920 tie wood ships
might have made it possible to have
won the war, .and then no one would
have criticized the policy of building
wooden ships" s.

Parish Organized
for Victory Drive

Plans have almost been completed
for the campaign Of the Fifth Lib
erty Loan drive and by tomorrow
evening everything will be in readi-
ness for the captains adm their team
workers. Mrs. Betty Sullivan-Frith,
who directed the women's division of
the fourth loan, has been reappointed
to the task and has devoted the en-
tire week in getting out her plans,
enthusing the workers and preparing
for a whirlwind campaign of the par
ish. Nothing is to be left undone to
put the parish over the top and those
who are behind the drive realize that
they have three weeks of very hard
work. The government is asking the
masses to purchase the bonds this
time, as the banks and large indus
tries will need their money to make
the reconstruction days ones of pros
perity.
Quotas of most communities for
the Victory Liberty Loan will be
