Result Is Field Signal Officers
Raise $4,200 for Liberty Loan
in Five Minutes. E
A good many things have been sajd
about rapid-fire subscrjptions to the
fourth liberty loan,g/apd orators on
the stump in the big-cities have told
some wonderful stories of what other
people have done in this respect. The
211th Field Signal Battalion believes
that it has the best tale of all.
The record for the battalion was
made by the officers and it stands
now at $4,200, a sum of rather tidy
proportions which was raised within
five minutes by the alarm clock, there
being none of the grandfather va
riety in the battalior
While persons in civil life are de
batirg wiether they can deny them-,
s~lves a little gasoline or stop wear
ing fur coats and carrying silk um
brellas with pearl handles, Maj. Dil

to bare his breast to German bullets,
if need be, met hiislfeu_ow officers and
made this proposition: a ;

Jnatched by me, no matter how large
the amount may be.”
Well, Capt. Scott was the lucky
bidder, with a subscription for SI,OOO.
This made total of $2,000, counting
the matchi;% by the major.
“That is/ encouraging,” said the
others; “lef’'s see what we can do.”
The result was that within five
minutes the officers of the battalion,
sixteen in all, had raised $4,200.
The example is set by the battalion
for the remainder of the units within
the camp and the major is so patri
otic that he does not care if the rec
ord of the signalmen is exceeded.

ONLY KIND-HEARTED, PATRIOTIC
PERSONS SHOULD READ THI§
The need for nurses, trained or un
trained, is of first importance in the
cities and country districts, and the
“Y"” believes that the good people who
are fortunate enough to be well will
answer this call. The Red Cross in
any city is the place to offer one’s
services. .
Few more touching or harrowing
appeals than the one below have re
cently come to notice, but hundreds
of the same sort exist everywhere.
People need somebody to give them
food and medicine, and this letter is
printed to illustrate the urgency of
the need:

please let us know. We heard fi om -
visitors to camp that John has t en
very sick. James was well the last
we heard fromi him. If he is well
could he not get a five or ten day
furlough to help out at home? %, &
mother is sick and is on the farm.
The storekeepers refused to deliver
flour or feed to her and the stock a8
to starve. James was ‘her only help
there, and he was taken& the draft.
The mother is fifty-eight years old:
and is not able even to oversee othel
laborers, if it were possible to get
them. T
Every one of the family is sick and
everything is in a terrible way. W&
had to close the store, as no one:
able to go into it. If one of the boy
could get home for a few days
might be able to help out until
worst is over and some of the
can help again. The sons
helped out until he got sick. He Ao
not improve and has been in héd
week. e
Please_do what you can to help’
