At the close of the pres ent drive, Mr. Neely said he expected to have reports on contributions of at least $-100,000. He expects each schooi district to contribute at least $1,000 making a total of $80:0000 in the school districts. A committee will bo named later to continue taking pledges for the purchase of Thrift Stamps. This committee will begin to work as soon as the women solicitors who. have canvassrd th? city have made their reports to the county chairman. The per acapita apportionment in the county is $20. During the Third Liberty Loan Drive the per capita al lotment was only $15.
