Salvation Army Drive
The Campaign for Home Ser.
vice Funds Opened Yesterday
Afternoon. Sacred Con-
cert at Chautauqua Tent
Enjoyed by Very Large
Audience

Sumter county's campaign for its
| $4,000 quota to the Salvation Army
! Home Service Fund was opened Sun
Iday afternoon at the Chautauqua
tent and was attended by probably
! the largest crowd ever gathered to-
gether in the interest of any cam
paign, thus nanifesting the intense
interest and loyalty Of Sumter coun-
| ty in the drive for this most worthy
organization The exercises were
opened by an Innovation 5y Rev. J.
B. Ferguson, followed by a most in
s4iring address by Rev. J. p. Ma
rion.
While the committee was disap-
pointed in not having either the
Harvesters Company or Madam Len
ska appear on the program, the
audience was delighted with the mag
nificent scared selections rendered by
the choir of st. Anne's Catholic
church under the direction of Miss
Annie Teichcr. In addition, one Of
The most eloquent addresses ever de-
I1ivered in our community was listen
ed to with the greatest interest yes
terday afternoon when. Capt. Perigord
appeared on the platform. Certainly
this charming gentleman has endear-
ed himself to the community, and
everyone who heard him yesterday
expressed the hope he would return
to Sumter in the very near future,
for no speaker has ever impressed an
audience as did Capt. Perigord yes
terday afternoon.
Chairman A C. Phelps Of the local
committee for the Salvation Army
opened the drive for funds. The to-
tai subscription for the afternoon
amounted to nearly $4,000, leaving
$4,000 to be subscribed during the
week. It is an assured fact that
Sumter canont and will not fail al
that did SO much for our
boys overseas, and are striving to do
equally as much, if not more, right
here in our own State. 1t would Ger
tainly prove a great help to the So
hciting committees. if everyone would
promptly send in their pledge cards.
Chairman Phelps stated this morn
ing he is most anxious to report
Sumter county's quota being raised
in the next forty-eight hours. Other
towns are launching their campaigns
today, and we have a substantial
start on them, so it is earnestly hop
ed everyone will seriously consider
the nature of this appeal for assist
ance-an appeal that really must
reach everyone of us way down
dee-and forward their subscriptions
or pledge cards either to the chair
man, or to Mr.. w. Whitehead, |
.reasurer, by tomorrow morning.
Pledge cards will be distributed at
he Chautauqua tent again this even
ng, so men and women of Sumter
you know what is expected
If you. Help us to get this drive over
With and out fthe way by tomorrow
night; fill in your pledge cards and
