UNITED WAR FUND
OF POLK COUNTY
Tryon, N. C., Aug. 27, 1945.
On Sept. 1st, Polk County will
enter on its third and final United
War Fund Campaign, and we are
again appealing, to the fine, pa
triotic people of our County to
support, as they have always done
in the past, this great philanth
ropic and morale building effort.
As we look around over the state,
we are beginning to see home
town boys in uniform on the
streets again. Some of them have
just returned from Europe wear
ing campaign ribbons, some with
empty sleeves as silent testimonials
J^.\the valor they have shown. They
'll behind them some of their
comrades, the boys who gave their
last full measure of devotion to
the country they loved. Some of
our boys have already left, and
others will be leaving soon to fin
ish the job, now almost completed,
in the Pacific area. They, of course,
would rather stay at home, and be
with their families, but they have
a call, and we must finish the job.
All this presents to us a real chal
lenge as we plan our third United
War Fund Campaign. We cannot
match our devotion with theirs,
but we can throw as much unsel
fish sacrifice into the task before
us as our financial ability will
permit. Let us not fail our boys.
Remember let us accept this chal
lenge, not as a task, but as a
privilege.
Please mail, or hand your con
gft&ution to Julian B. Hester, Jr.,
IfctJasurer of the United War
Fund of Polk County at the Tryon
Bank & Trust Co., or it can be left
at the Bulletin office, or with any
of the Committee chairmen.
Don’t put it off. Do it now.
Won’t you help to put Polk County
ever the top again—the first coun
ty in all the State, as in the past
two campaigns, to fulfill its quota?

and children, Homer and Irving,
