Enthusiastic Liberty Loan Meeting in Barkley Monday.

The Liberty loan meeting held in Barkley township at the Barkley church Monday 'evening was a very enthusiastic one and a concerted effort is being made by the citizens of that township to subscribe their allotted share to the huge war loan. Several speakers from Rensselaer were present for the meeting and a number of bonds were sold during the evening. Agents will scour the townships the last few days of the drive and Barkley anticipates but little trouble in securing enough subscribers to make up their amount. On Wednesday evening a similar meeting will be held at Gifford at the Gifford school house. On Thursday evening another meeting will be held at the Never Fail school house in Jordan township.
