the photographs and biographies of all "The Boys" from Rowan county and others
who so brilliantly represented their country, and the State of North Carolina, in
this great war. ggj $m
There is absolutely no charge made and you are obligated in no way. You
owe to your friends and relatives to see that they are not left out of this perma
nent history of "Who's Who" in the world war from Rowan county
Can you imagine the joy it would have given our veterans of the civil war if
they had o record showing the pictures and history of "The Boys" from Rowan
county and those who stood with them in "61"?
This county has given generously of its manhood, some of whom will never
return. In the years of peace to follow let not a single soldier be lost as an in
dividual, but let every citizenf ot the county co-operate in every way to compile a
record that will stand as a monument of credit to the patriotism of this county,
a tribute to each individual soldier, an honor roll to which we can point with
pride, which will serve as permanent history of "Who's Who" and for the edifi
cation of the generations to ,
The Pictures Should be Brought in at Once

picture of the officers of each branch chapter and the names and pictures1 of all
who were conspicuously connected with the Liberty Loan Committee and other
war work for this book. Bring these pictures in as quickly as possible as we

by your families and handed down from one generation to another.
