• VICTORY LOAN CAMPAIGN ENDED A FINAL REPORT AND ANALYSIS OF SUBSCRIPTIONS BY W. H. OUARTERMAN, THE COUNTY CHAIRMAN. I did not have time to organize the county anew, so attempted to use the same organization, with a few changes as in t lie fourth Loan. From the first i realized 1 had undertaken a difieult if not impos sible, task, but went about it as Wiest I could. For my failure to put Barrow county over, 1 accept my due share of blame, I am not a good organizer, nor have 1 the necees sary executive ability to enthuse my workers in aeampaign as hard as this one. It seemed impossible to get my ■committees to work and the coun ty was not thoroughly canvassed at all, in several districts no ef forts whatever were made. The amount subscribed is large for the actual efforts made to secure sub scriptions. However, there is no excuse for the citizens not making subscriptions voluntarily and showing their patriotism,the drive was veil advertised in the papers and by the Victory Loan Rally which attracted one of the larg est crowds ever seen in Winder. The people seemed apathetic, hard to arouse to their duty and seemed to think the other fellow should take the Bonds this time and they, one and all. excused; the war was over and they very busy about their own affairs, with no time nor desire to work for or take Bonds. Underlying it all was the fact of lower prices in cotton and the holding movement, which blocked money from circulation, cramped the banks and caused a general feeling of inability to in vest now. Many of our most able citizens failed and refused to subscribe, l Suppose they have their reasons, but they are not apparent and re main a mystery to me and the re sult of their failure caused many, Jess able, to follow their example and offer it as an excuse. Cain’s district again shows her loyalty and patriotism, by being the first district to get over the top, and she is awarded a Ger man Helmet. Winder and House’ B district went way over the district quota of $114,850 but was not able to pull the outlying districts over with their quota. To the North Georgia Trust & Banking Cos. is awarded a German Helmet for the largest corpora tion subscription, $27,200. This bank also has the honor of subscribing its full quota as allot ted by the government authori ties, and, of having the largest li s t of individual subscribers, almost equaling the other two, and had the other banks joined her in a prorata division of the unsubscril ed part of the county quota, Bar row county would have been put over the top. All the banks of Winder made liberal subscriptions and offered all their facilities to their custo mers for carrying subscription B at the lowest rates of interest; for this co-operation 1 thank them. The Winder National Bank of ficials did not deem it wise to load the bank so heavily with the Gov ernment Bonds, fearing it would injure their ability to serve their customers and in this view the Farmers Bank concurred, in this they may have been wise, I have no censure for them and only re gret that there were not subscrib ers of all kinds sufficient to put on the Honor Roll of Georgia counties. Subscriptions in Houses district amounted to $134, 850 and only a few hundreds of this, some from without the city limits of Winder, we rejoice to know that our city lias kept up its unbroken record of loyalty and patriotk”'. in all the Governments War Activities. Mr. W. C. Horton is awarded a German Helmet a 9 being the larg est individual subscriber to Victo ry Bonds to-wit, $7,500. Below is given a full Honor Roll of subscribers to Victory Bonds.

They help the family enjoy life, bring the pleasures and advantages of the town within reach of the farmer and give practical service every day in country and town. They require a minimum of attention; any one can run the Ford and eare for it, but it is better to have repairs and replace ments taken care of by those who are famil iar with the work and have tools, the genu ine materials, and skilled men to do the work promptly. We pledge Ford owners the reliable Ford service with real Ford parts and standard Ford prices. FLANIGAN & FLANIGAN WINDER, GEORGIA. GAINESVILLE MIDLAND RAILROAD.
