DRIVE OUENED WITH MUSIC AND ADDRESS THIS MORNING

The Jasper county Victory Loan fbive opened this Monday morning with a band concert by the college band on the court house steps, and was followed by a short address by George A. Williams, who that bond buying be started immediately, that Jasper county may soon climb #rer the top. Chairman C. G. Spitler and his aides are entering the work enthusiastically and hope to have the grteater percent of the quota subscribed before the end of the present week. The war train will be here Wednesday evening and will remain until Thursday morning, and should prove of anusual interest. The tank billed for the city on the same day is behind in its schedule &nd it is not known what day it will put in an appearance. Considerable trouble has been encoutered by the huge tanks and they seem to have more trouble in negotiating the distance here than they did in their drive on the Hun.
