co-operation of the Women's Divi-sion
headed by Mrs. Clark r.
KcoLt, is conducting a campaign *to
cell $250.000 worth of bonds be-tween
now and Dec. 21. with a
view to providing th'e where-with-all
to purchase a heavy bomber
as a Christmas present for Uncle
Sam.
brhind the. movement
hope to buy the bomber,
a load of bombs to drop
in Hitler's backyard or smash, the
Japanese'"filed egg."
If the -residents of'the village
purchase the necessary bonds, a
bomber will be dedicated to and
bear the name of Freepori as it
flies over enemy territory on iLs
mission of destruction. It would
be nrce?vary to sell only $50,000 in
bunds to purchase a pursuit plane,
or $150,000 for a light bomber,
but, Mr. Patterson insists tliat

Postmaster Rice Asks
Those
not only
but also
nothing but a heavy bomber—a
Flying Fortress—will do. consider-ing
that there are nearly two
months in which to raise the nec-
>arry amount.
A circular letter has been pre-pared
and will be sent to all serv-ice
clubs, women's organizations
and other groups asking their co-operation
in the drive.
On Her. 1, a thermometer will
be erected at the station plaza on
which the progress of the cam-paign
will be recorded.
During October $125.900 in bonds
and $8,708 in stamps, were sold
through Uie Women's Division.
Mrs. Scott explained that this
large total was due to the purchase
of $50,000 in bonris b> the village,
the proceeds of the sale of two
Diesel engines to the government.
For the first time the sisterhood of
Temple Israel reportetl'lUi sales to-taling
$2.125 in bonds and $310 to
the committee.
Through the schools bonds and
stamps in the amount of $3.417.15
were sold. These sales were re-ported
directly to Surrogate Leone
D. Howell, the county chairman,
but in the future they will be
!ciedited to the village.
