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.

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.” FEDERAL LAND BANKS LOAN FARMERS $13,000,000 IN FEB.
