THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS
NEWS OF WAR SAVINGS
STAMPS OVER GEORGIA
News from the Front Lines:
“OUR BOYS GASSED BY THE
HUNS—
Those attacked either met horrible
death, blinded for life or rendered
honeless maniacs.” (Under the above
headlines the awful details were giv
en.)
News from Behind the Lines:
“JEANETTE STAPLES LEADS
THRIFT ARMY OF SCHOOL
CHILDREN
With a total sale of $3,270.68, little
Miss Jeanette Fontaine Staples, of
Atlanta, is leading all public school
children in the United States in
thrift stamp sales.
Miss Staples, who is the daughter
of J. M. Staples, 51 West North Ave
nue, Atlanta, Ga., is 9 years of age.
She is in the fourth grade of Luckie
Street schol. The little girl has ap
plied for a commission as “General”
in the American thrift army, and her
slogan is “Buy Stamps From Me,” and
in this way she is doing her bit toward
helping Uncle Sam win the war
against the Huns.
Little Miss Staples has been leading
the thrift campaign among the school
children for four weeks, and hopes to
win the commissoin of a general. Mrs.
M. M. Armstrong is her teacher. —
From a morning paper.
Her childish appeal is always for
“Big Brother Over There.” When
the deadly gas leaves the enemy’s line,
our boys are only given SIX SEC
ONDS in which to adjust the gas
mask to escape a horrible death. This
loyal little Patriot and Soldier Behind
the lines has by h|r single efforts
equivalently equipp<|l 272 of our
boys with gas masks. No higher trib
ute can be paid her.
WAYNESBORO GEORGIA REGIS
TERS
Mr. W. M. Fulcher, chairman Burke
county, has just advised this office of
the good work being done in his coun
ty. Extract from his letter follows:
“I am enclosing herewith applica
tion for certificate for War Savings
Society of the Waynesboro High
School. The enrollment of this school
is 309 pupils, toal sale $1,817.80, so
you will see that they have bought
$58.80 per capita in stamps and cer
tificates.”
Hurray! this buys the equivalent
of 152 masks for our soldier boys.

SUGGESTIONS FOR OPENING
LIBERTY BOND CAMPAIGN
The following suggestions received
through the “Hunch Exchange, ’
Washington, are offered for further
elaboration of the ceremonies atten
dant upon the opening of the Third
Liberty Loan campaign. They are
passed on for whatever use you care
to make them.
(1) That the evening of April 6
be designated as Camp Fire night and and
that there be a camp fire meeting in"
every school district. The features ol
the ceremonies to he the lighting of
all fires at a given hour; music ora
tion and reading of the names of
those in service and Liberty Loan ap
peal. Camp fire night would be a
meeting of neighbor with neighbor
and would have a wide influence in
bringing the people to a realization
that the war is their v.vir. Take this
up with your Women’s Committee.
(2) That on April 6, at the anni
versary of the hour and minute of the
President’s signing the declaration of
war that all traffic stop for a minute
or two, and every individual be re
quested to either mentally or orally
make a resolution in words to this ef
fect—that
“With the Grace of God I hereby
resolve that during each day I will do
something to help win this war.”
