Plainville has done as was expected. Tt has gone the Fourth Loan Al tormer “over the top” in campaign as it has in | campaigns and it h gone away When the campaign was first started a very efficient com- mittee v ppointed to have charge of the campaign throughout the en- tire town. This committee was well organized and kept the ball rolling from the start. A novel scheme was found to add more interest to the campaign. The first three days were known as volunteer da: and the @ieM ULYL SPUOq ySnoq oum ordoad not approached by the canvassers, who combed the town afterward. The first day was most gratifying to those in charge nearly $81,000 worth of bonds was subscribed. The second day of the campaign was on a Sunday and on this day Plainville held its largest raily since war was declared. That night the townspeople were grat- ified to hear that this town had sub- scribed for a total of $96,000 almost as much the city of Bristol had subscribed in the two days. | From that time on the campaign | was waged quietly. Scveral members of the committee started a canvass of the town. This canvass was tinished a few days ago. It was due | to this canvass that the town was so successful in raising its quota of $162,000. During the campaign a clock was placed on Central Square which contained numerals from 10 162,000. As the amount rose the hand on the clock was moved ac- cordingly. After reaching $140,000 | the hands were suddenly stopped and the townspeople thought the town was going to fall below. This morning after careful survey of the statistics the committee an- nounced that this town had subscribed almost $165,000. The figures for the four campaigns are: -first campaign, subscribed 5,00 sub- impaign, $116,00 $162,000; over. th ribed, quota, $179,250; quota, $81,000, su fourth campaign, subscribed, $165,000 Hears of After five long anxious months dur- ing which time she pictured her boy probably dead or seriously wounded, Kate Hopkins of West Main street has received muews of the whereabouts of her son Private Douglas Fremont Hopkins through the war department. The following telegram was received by Mrs. Hop- kin scribed Soldier Son.

Right at that time, Privaté Randolph Stewart, also a local boy, was taken prisoner. Hopkins letter of May 12 told of Stewart's cpature. From that time no trace of him could be found.
