OVER A MILLION DOLLARS FOR SALEM
Salem is called upon to subscribe over a million dollars to the
Fourth Liberty loan. t
Will she do it!
She surely will.
And Salem should go "over the top" ahead of time.
Our city was the first to respond with a volunteer company of
soldiers ready for duty anywhere.
Our boys have gone out, in every branch of the service. They
are scattered the wide world over, in the struggle for the liberty of
all, mankind.
They are giving and offering their lives.
Our dollars will keep them, fed and clothed and equipped for
their work. . '
1 " Salem and Marion county and Oregon have been first or among
the first to respond to every call of patriotism.
We must and will live up to our glorious record.
This is our pride and our duty. We have had and will have no
slackers and no slacker dollars or slacker supplies.
