'YD DRIVE ENDS
TODAY-LAST CHANCE
TO SUBSCRIBE

Today marks the end Of the YD
drive to collect funds for the $250,000
memorial building which is to be
erected in Boston. Today will tell
the story as to whether Augusta will
go over the top for the boys of the
26th Division or whether she will fail
to subscribe her quota. The Capital
City did not fail in any drive during
the great war. She will not fail in
this drive If the people but realize
that the time is short. Tomorrow the
veterans of the famous Yankee Divi-
sion will know the result. They are
relying on Augusta people to pull the
thing through and make 1t a success.
During the dark period in 1918. when
everyone was watching the march of
the Hun toward the Channel. eyes
were strained toward the bulletin
board and anxious faces were the
rule. When the gallant 26th made
the heroic stand at Chateau Thierry
they asked no favors Of any man,
but fought and won like heroes. To-
day they are asking help to erect a
memorial fer the dead the men who
gave their all for Democracy. A
place where the living can meet theif
"buddies" and talk over the humor
and pathos of those stirring days
Today Is the last day to contribute,
tomorrow will be too late. Up to the
present time as near as can be as
certained about $500 has been sub
scribed.
