Putnam’s Liberty loan subscriptions 2t the closing of the books at noon on Friday had run up to $325,008 in round numbers and was_higher than anyone here had predicted it would -be. In every respect the campaign in this_city was a signal success. Sub- scriptions began to dribble in about the first of the month, but Guring the past ten days there has been a steady and systematic campaien. to arouse the people of the district to subscribe, with final results that are more than gratifying. Organization of a Liberty ioan com- mittee here really marked the begin- ning of the drive to get the district's apportionment. and this move was fol- Towed up by the appointment of ward committees from the Liberty joan committee and organizing sub-commit- tees in other towns of the district— ‘Thompson, Pomfret, Woodstock. During the laiter part of the past week the drive that was being made under the direction ~f the committee egan to be very effective, but its greatest results did not become mani- fest until Thursday, when such a rush for bonds set in as to a'minst over- wheim those who were handling the business. Putnam oversubscribed its- appor- tionment of $213,000 by $107,000, and ithis wide margin over the -raquire- ments may_be taken as 2 measure of ‘the work done and the whole-heart- €d way in.which the people of the district responded to the call.

Reardor has_tendered his resignation to the Grosvenordale company, which operates the big cot- ton mills at Grosvenordale and North Grosvenordale. The resignation is to become effective Aug. 1.

The Navy League-of the United States offers an answer to that ques- tion for every mean and woman by affording them an opportunity for pa- triotie servite in support of the United States Navy. » ‘The need of the services being ren- dered by Navy League members has been acknowledged -by Secrstary of [the Navy Josephus Daniels, and the 1 crulting officers. It requires co-opera~ A naval recruiting officer recently wrote: “I wish to thank the Navy League of Kansas City, and edch of its members for the splendid, patriotic work that has been dome In this city in obtaining ‘such an abundance of Tecruits for the Navy in time of vital need. I think that the thanks of the entire Navy, of Kansas City, Missouri, and of myself are due you to the full- est and heartiest extent, and that you may feel that you have rendered your; country a ost valuable service in time of war. t Navy Needs Recruits. The Navy is now seeking 50,000 ad- ditional recruits. All of these men ‘will 'be volunteers. The conscript law does not apply to the Navy which is exclusively a volunteer service. To zet these recruits provides opportun- ity mumber one for men and women who WANT TO WORK. Recruiting requires more than the service of re- T 575 Derrra s Ve s tion on the part of men and women of every community. ‘Opportunity number two is offered to women to make comfort garments for the men of the fleet. These are not supplied by the Navy Department, and Secretary Daniels has officially ‘welcomed the assistance of the League in this work. In this democracy of ours naval pol- icles must rest upon the broad founda- tion of public opinion. Therefore, it is & duty of citizenship to know the Navy, to keep in touch with it, to be familiar with its functions end its needs. If there is an organization In your city devoting itself to this patriotic Wwork the opportunity is offered you to get behind the Navy and do your “bit." 1f there !s no such organization, the bigger opportunity is offered you to become a moving spirit in the forma- tion of one. The Navy League from & G o e TOrpeds Derernse Bwilery or2 fRe PSS arirIe oy Ferldiests0 Cr.wreerer its headquarters at Washington will help you do this. How To Organize. A simple and practical plan of or- ganization for such work in any com- munity is as follows: Get together a citizen’s organization of men and women who WANT TO WORK. This will serve as the cen- tral organization with officers as presi. dent, vice-president, secretary and treasurer. The president should be a man whose name carries welght in the com- munity. The vice-president should bo chosen for the same qualifications. The treasurer should be a man in whom the public has implicit confi- dence. The secretary should be an energetic young man enthusiastic for the cause-who is willing and able to shoulder a heavy burden as the execu- tive officer in coordinating and guld- ing the work of all sub-commlttees. To carry on a recruiting campaign organize thé following sub-commit- tees: Finance, Bpeakers, Press, Picture Shows, Music and Drum Corps, Auto- mobiles, sub-stations and a Women's Committee. Thess committees should be composed of as few persons as pos- sible, one person frequently being enough. The Finance Committes collects funds to carry on the work, Let it make a thorough campalgn among business and professional people for ald. ° The Press Committee should consist of one thoroughly alive and experi- enced newspeaper man who will supply 2]l newspapers with news—not views —of what the League organization is doing. The Music and Drum Corps Com- mittee would do well to seek out schools which have bands or drum corps organizations. Bands are ex- pensive. Oftentimes an old soldiers’ or a boys’ drum corps can be foumd to volunteer its services. Even a single drummer wlll attract attention at a recruiting station. Buglers do the same. They are invaluable. Open Sub-Stations, Bub-stations should be opened in all important parts of the city. They should be on the stroet floors of bulid- ings or in tents pitched in the street. Decorate your sub-stations and call attention to them in every way pos- sible. Ask the local recruiting officer to put & uniformed man at cach sta- tion, to talk the Navy from & prac- tical viewpoint. Put women at the sub-stations, They always encourage enlistment. ‘Work with your moving picture the- atres to show Navy films and slid Keep the Navy in all motion plcture houses all the time. Get in touch with your film exchanges and see what they can do for you. Get a good list of speakers who know how to talk for the Navy. Book them at plcture shows and every pub- lic meeting where they can be heard. Get peovle to volunteer the use of their motor cars for recruiting work to visit factories and outlying towns. Confer with your recruiting officer on the use of these, Use auto trucks, decorated as floats uni- Place a group of boy scouts in form In a float with this sign v bhave offered our services to our coun- try.

Get ex-service men to help you They know how to talk the Navy, and you will ind them enthustastic out ribbons or badges to be worn women whose relatives have enlisted in the service. Have these badges read, “My brother (sweetheart, h band, or father) is serving his co in the Navy. Is yours?” Ses every woman entitled to a badge wears it. Get your merchants to devote part of their advertising space to the Navy. Every woman In every community can help in the work of making extra warm garments for the men of our Navy when they face the hard duty of antl-submarine patrol work. Such out- fits have been supplicd to every Amer- ican warship now in the Europoan war aone. Those who cannot knit can buy wool for others to work on. You cam either join the League organization in your city or elso you can form new organizations. Navy League women in many citles have started food com- servation classes. Others are training at the camps for national service. The Navy League wants to have you know the Navy, to keep in constant touch with it, and to be a force in your community In support of your dation's first line of defense. ntry that
