Our apportionment, as announced in Friday's Journal, was subscribed during the middle of the week, but heavy sales Friday and Saturday brought the total up by $25,000. The , f uatch the President" scheme brought out a number of $50 bond purchasers. Despite the fact that there were two shows in town last night a Rood sized audience assembled in the court house to witness the presentation of the Honor Flags awarded to Monroe and Union county for going over the top in the Third Liberty Loan drive. It was a meeting that showed that the people of Union are still patriotic as in days gone by. It gave the lie to the German idea that America was a nation whose patriotism was burled under the almighty dollar. Dr. H. E. Gurney opened the meet ing with prayer, following which the audience sang America. Mr. W. S. Blakeney, a member of the central Liberty Loan committee, w Austin. E. B. Blvens. T. A. J rnce, l. n.
