EDWARD P. LANE MADE A SPEECH
WILL HAVE IMPORTANT PART IN THIRD LIBERTY LOAN BOND. Edward P. Lane, one of the best hustlers in this city, has been appointed to look after the transportation facilities for those who are to attend the Liberty Loan meetings in this county during the campaign beginning Saturday, April 6. Mr. Lane was present at the meeting held at the Christian church Wednesday evening, and when called upon by Chairman Chapman he made an excellent response and assured Mr. Chapman and others present that he would discharge the duties imposed upon him with the very best effort possible. . Mr. Lane’s talk was full of patriotism and had the ring of a fellow who really means business. By the authority vested in him, if you do not offer him your automobile he may conscript your car and take you along with it and when the campaign is over he may sell it and buy a liberty bond with the proceeds. If you had heard his speech you would not fail to offer your car. See Mr. Lane at once and offer your automobile in this important move to, provide ammunition with which to get the Kaiser.
