Let ug go on with redoubled energy and with determined effort not only to go over our apportionment, as we have In this district, but add 50 per cent- and then 100 per cent. “We are now placing, by orders from Washington, a gold star bn our bulletin board over the name of each county that reaches Its allotment,'a silver star when that county has added 50 per cent., and an additional gold star when It has doubled its apportionment. I do not want this campaign to come to a close without three stars at the head of every county In my district. - ‘T look to you, as chairman of your county, to make It possible for me to place a crown of three stars of the first magnitude, at the top of your column.” For Rainbow Boys.
