Jasper County Democrat, Volume 21, Number 56, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 October 1918 — BUT WE STILL NEED $30,000 [ARTICLE]

BUT WE STILL NEED $30,000

Barkley Is “Over” and Marion Is Practically So. At noon yesterday The Democrat was informed by the Director of Sales that Jasper county was still short about $30,000 of filling its quota of $450,000 of the Fourth Liberty Loan. Barkley has reached its qupta and Marion has practically reached hers. With the work that is .to be done today in several of the townships it it hoped to put the quota over today or Monday at farthest. Every one who has not “thawed out,” or who can increase their subscriptions just a little, is urged to come forward and help put the sales over the top. So far about one-third of the counties in the state have “come across,” and Jasper is completely surrounded with “white” counties, Renton, Newton, Lake, Starke, Pulaski and White having filled jtheir respective quotas.
