of capacity as this Hoover has displayed

MEMORIAL SHAFT
FOR OHIO TOWN
Cut in Barre Granite and to Be Erected
in Honor of Heroes of That County
Which Purchased Most War
Savings Stamps.

w. il. Macy, a prominent merchant
of Newark, o., who, with his wife, two
daughters, son and chauffeur, has been
touring the East for the past few weeks,
made detour from the White noun
see the victory shaft being cut of Barre
granite. This $4,000 monument, which
will be dedicated TO the veterans of the
world war, will rest in one of the SO Ohio
counties which has purchased the great
est per capita amount of war savings
stamps during the four months campaign
which came TO an end Sept. |.
Mr.. Macy and family were shown
every courtesy by the Jones Brothers
company during their visit here and
after Mr.. Macy had viewed the massive
granite monument, expressed his deep
est satisfaction for the memorial, be-
lieving justly that Ohio had made the
best choice possible in accepting the Offer
of the Barre Manufacturers & Quarters
association, when the latter agreed tc
county manifesting the most patriotism
with vast purchases of the stamps
As soon as possible, he wired to his
fellow citizens and informed them that
he was the first from Ohio to see the
memorial. He did not neglect to urge
the people of his county to strive doubly
hard to lead all Others in the last days
Of the campaign. 1t proved that hi;
message had considerable effect upon the
populace, for the total sales were soor
doubled and Licking county (of which
he is a citizenl, according to the latest
report, was leading all others in the con
test.
Desiring to have his state 100 per cent
in the w. s. S. campaign, the head OF
the department instigated method
whereby the public would have a two
fold incentive for purchasing the govern
ment saving stamps; first a savings ac
count; second, a beautiful memorial
erected in honor of 0hio's heroes A re
quest was received by Secretary Bell o.
the Granite Manufacturers & Quarters
association, asking the association to do
nate a memorial to answer the above
mentioned purpose. After some delibera
tion, the association voted unanimously
to comply with the request. The Barre
offer was accepted in preference to many
Others chiefly because of the quality anC
attraetiveness of the Barre stone.
As result of this campaign, Barre
granite has been doomed throughout
Ohio in 900 newspapers, and doubtless
every person in Ohio has heard more ol
less about our chief industry and tn,
quality of its manufacture.
