 Somehow the very first mention of Fifth Liberty Loan left the little town of Jacksonville cold.
 And vet JeffersonviIle had been ,.tr,otic enough in the flaming days uban the men of America were set ting their faces toward the East and moving by train and truekioad to the Atlantic ports It's boys had gone, some by enlistment, some by the slower process of the draft.
