Evening Republican, Volume 22, Number 108, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 May 1919 — JASPER COUNTY WHITE [ARTICLE]

JASPER COUNTY WHITE

Jasper county has again gone over the top and has exceeded its Fifth bond quota. Our apportionment of the Fifth or Victory Liberty loan was placed at $275,000, a very modest sum' and easily and quickly subscribed. Jasper county has made a most excellent record in all war activities and in no case when asked for bread has she given a stone. Those who have done their duty, and the per cent in this class is very large, have the very great satisfaction of knowing that they have stood shoulder' to shoulder with the soldier boys in the greatest conflict between liberty and oppression ever waged upon, this terrestial sphere’. Those who were yellow slackers and hog profiteers, thank God their number was small, can spend the rest of their days despising themselves and deserve to be hunned and hated by their fellows.
