C, June 22, 1913 Now that Ty Cobb has starts t do a little walloping, American wb batting leaders will have to n to keep out in front. 801119 i ii iiyiiiil Vy IT' UP DO YOU The allotment in the War Savings Drive for New Hanover County is, byt :ownships as follows: j Zape Fear Township $ 37,576.00 Federal Point Township. . 14,586.00 Harnett Township ...... 69,322.00 Masonboro Township ... 16,874.00 Wilmington Township . . 566,456.00 Total $704,814.00 In the War Savings Drive you will be asked to subscribe for the stamps you can buy between now and January 1 st, 1 91 9. A corps of more than 200 W. S. S. workers :Kaye been enhstect for the drive, which begins Monday, June 24th. A complete census of the city and county has been taken and the committee has endeavored -to list every man, woman and child able to buy War Savings Stamps. The workers have been instructed that it is their duty to ask the people to buy the full amount of stamps allotted to us. Until , they ask you to buy to the limit of your ability they will fail in the duty imposed upon them. When they ask you to make a pledge they discharge their duty to the government and the responsibility for your action then rests upon your shoulders. There are three answers you should not make to the canvassers when they ask you to buy War Savings Stamps: First: Do not say, "I have bought Liberty. Bonds." Uncle Sam knows who has bought Liberty Bonds, and there is not a person anywhere who has purchased Liberty, Bonds who cannot and ought not to buy War Savings Stamps. The government expects you to do your part, and has , said that everyone should buy War Savings Stamps. If you refuse to buy stamps be cause you own bonds you thereby admit that you are unwilling to help en--courage the other eighty millions of people and more in the United States who have not and possibly can not buy Liberty Bonds. Second: Don't tell the, canvassers that you cannot afford to buy War Sav ings Stamps because you require the income from your investment for your livelihood. The government permits you to retain every dollar of interest on the stamps. You don't even have to clip coupons or cash a check for your in terest. It stays in your packet from the moment you make your purchase, and for every $100 War Savings Certificate you buy you only pay eighty-odd dollars, according to the month in which you invest your money. And as col lateral to secure the payment of these stamps is pledged the entire resources of the United States, including the house in which you live. . ; TT"Third: Don't tell the canvassers it's too much trouble to lick Thrift Stamps arid War Savings Stamps. Trat answer is out of date and out of place in Wilmington. Many of our splendid American boys already lie buried be neath the poppies on the gory battlefields of France. Wilmington has already paid the supreme sacrifice upon the altar of a world-wide war. Our gallant boys today are fighting on the fields of Flanders; they are struggling on the banks of the Marne; they are praying and paying on the plains of Picardy. Any sacrifice that you can make here on the favored shores of America can not compare for a moment with the sacrifices of the boys who go "over the top." Surely every man, woman and child will respond to the call of their coun try and help stop the great mad dog of Europe, the "Hellish Hun." JOSEPH W.
