they are mostly of the contact variety

and four Liberty Loan Drives.
This will be the last Loan and it is
justly called the Victory Loan. 1t will

glorious success to thas point and then
fail on this last lap.
This district. will not fail! 1t can
not fail because the citizens residing
therein will not let it fail, if for no
other reason than personal pride in its
past record.
The Committee decided to start work

FIFTH VICTORY LIBERTY
LOAN CAMP PAIGN APPEAL
James II. Hughes, Chairman for Kent
County, Makes Appeal to
Workers
To All Liberty Loan Committees
Of Kent County.

To All Liberty Loan Committees
of Kent County:
have been re-appointed by the
Treasury Department as Chairman of
the Fifth Liberty Loan for Kent County
and have accepted the appointment
feeling that it is as much my duty TO
serve the Government in the Fifth
Loan as it was in the four prior loans.
| | appeal to all Liberty Loan workers
who have so generously volunteered
their services in the previous loans to
stand together and help put the Fifth
Loan over as a matter of public duty
The bills the government contracted
for munitions, airplanes, poison gas
and a multitude of other supplies
which brought the war TO such an un-
expected conclusion must in honor be
paid. The boys must be brought home,
the wounded must be nursed back to
health and many of them taught new
trades. and it is as much the duty of
every citizen to see that these Obliga-
tions are met as it was their duty and
privilege while the war was actually
in progress to see that everything was
done to brink a speedy victory
| feel that he who can assist in the
coming Loan but who from WEAKNESS
or lack of interest refuses to assist
is as much of a Stacker as those who
were able 10 buy bonds in the previous
Loans but refused 10 do so because
they could invest money at a higher
rate of interest.
Most of the local organizations in
Kent County who served the govern
ment in the previous Loans have vol
unteered to go with the Fifth Loan
and see it through, but there are some |
localities where the previous commit |
tees do not show a willingness TO con- |
tinue their services. To these l es-
pecially address this appeal. The gov
ernment is determined that the Fifth |
Loan shall be a success and it pro-
poses to carry on a more vigorous
than it has ever done before.
am making arrangements now to
secure an airplane for Kent County
