More Than 100 Persons En-
gagged in House to
House Canvass
HALF OF QUOTA SOLD
Appeal Made For All Persons to Pur-
chase Victory Bonds as Drive WIN
End This Week.

Victory Bonds amounting to
$4,000 were sold yesterday after
noon as result of the two hours
drive made by more than 100 can
vassers.
This city's allotment is only half
sold thus far and this marks the
closing week of the drive.
Up to the hour Of closing Of the
banks Saturday the total subscr;p-
tions reported were s257,500.
This together with the $4,000 sold
yesterday brings the grand total up
to exactly $255,5OO. Alexandria,
therefore, had sold only about cne-
half Of her quota.
An urgent appeal is made by the
local committee of which Robert S.
Jones is chairman for all pers ons
who have not yet purchased Victory
Bonds to do so at once in order to
help Alexandria go over the top as
she has done in all previous bond
drives.
The various committees in charge
of the drive are hard at work and
are anxious that Alexandria make a
showing commensurate with the re-
suits of the previous bond dr!Tes.
A meeting of the local commit
tee is being held this afternoon in
the rooms of the Chamber of Gem

ALf4gIE SPORTING BLOOD.


THERE was q time when it was
thought that the only expression Of
sporting blood in the masculine res
idcnt Of a small city or town was Wis
ualized when he donned a suit of clam
orous design, wore his cigars in an
obliquc fashion, cultivated saloons and
the Police Gazette and perhaps had a
pair of dice secrcted about his person
somewhere.
Things have ch2nged. The sport.
ing blood of the small community to-
day, like that Of the city, hasn't to do
with the cauiifoWer cared habitua Of
the Squared c~irc!e"of the effectiveness
Of the scissors hold or a Bronx but has
for its associates the golf bag, tennis
racket or a good seat in the bleaclers
at a base bal! game, or a spot on the
side lines at a football match.
Sporting blood, not in excess, Of
course. is a good thing for any man. 1t
iocuhatcs the necessary red corpuscies,
puts new lii" in the threatened senttty
of his mind and manner and generates
new Yigor and clearness of thought
that proves a business asset.
1t is a fern of recreation that re-
licveS Il ran of his bu5lness for a short
period and returns him to his occu-
patton ~freshened and fifty to a hundred
Fer cent more efficient than he was.
There is a vast difference between a
sport and a sportsman, as we have
been told many times. 1t is purely a
matter Of ideals. And after all muci'
that we are and will be depends on the
ideals we have.
The youngest old men we know ar
| sportsmen and the oldest young mer
of our acquaintance aren't, and, VIZ are
glad to say, neither are they sports.
