THREE STARS. Graham's Liberty Bond Allotment! Subscribed Four Times Over and, i Still Growing- Graham's allotment fir the thi'd j Liberty Loan is $34,300. When,' the allotment is subscribed for a! town or county it is entitled to an | ( Honor Flag. Kve>y time an amount J equal to the allotment iB added 'i j { blue star is added to the Honor Flag. | Last week the banks of Graham reported $113,200 subscribed, entitl- j in)? Graham to two stars for her fl ig. ( Since the subscription has grown to , §155,150, entitling Graham to the : I bird star, which has been ordered, j with n credit of $18,250 —more tlinu ( half the amount required—toward j, the fourth star. The banks are j confident., not only that the fourth I . star will be adde I before the catn-1 paign is over, but that Graham's |. subscription will equal the entire al- I' lotment of $184,800 for Alamance! County. On the opening day, April Oth, I' Graham's and the County's allot- j, monts were oversubscribed aud j Graham won two stars. In au article elsewhere it is stated that Burlington and Haw River have overscribed their allotment and that. | MeLane and Eton College are well| along with theirs These are records of which the I patriotic citizens of Alamance should I ieel justly proud. \Vhat Alamance Has Done In floating the third Liberty | Loan a. cortaw fixed amount, I called its "quota," was sot apart l for each town and county. Ala-] maiico county has almost doubled j its quota, as a county. The towu 1 of Graham has sold uioru I hall j three times its quota The City of mirlington and till) town ot' Haw River have both sold con-j siderably more than their quot-i, and Mubaue and Elon College are about to reach their quota. .Mr. J Chas. A.'Scutt, the Chairman, be-; lieves that tlia»coumy will double | its quota. Alamance was one of the first counties iu this Federal Reserve District to go "over the top." In the sale of War Savings j Stamps, which continues (luting the entire year 1918, there was also a quota assigned to each coun ty, and iu percentage of quota sold Alamance stands Bth in the list of 100 counties in the State; (ind iu amouut sold, it stands lOtli of all the counties ot the State. ! This repdrt is given us by Mr E. : S. Parker, Jr., Chairman, and is based upon returns up to April Ist, the last titne they were com piled. Alamance county is going steadi ly ahead in these matters, and all of her citizens should not only be proud of it, but should endeavor to keep our county notonly among the first, but/ to make her abso lutely first.

Wheat is looking much better j than farmers expected ; the winter i was so extremely cold I hey feared j the greater part of small grain ] would be frozen out.
