Not only have they reached the 100 per cent participation in the payroll savings plan of pur- chase of War Savings Bonds, but they have set a new record of 100 per cent participation in taking a bond a pay- day beginning with made this this pay enviable period. The men who have record are: Orville Pedigo, Bernard Kendall, Joe Waterman, James Meade, Samuel Meade, and George Russell. That really gives the rest of the depot something to shoot at. Wonder how many more crews can equal that record during this Fourth War Loan Bond Drive which closes February 14.
