C. Lathrop, chairman of the general committee in charge of the fth Victory Liberty loan, stated on unday afternoon that he was very uch pleased with the manner in Mwhich the citizens of the town of ‘Windham responded to the call, but &t that time it was impossible to give the amount of bonds subscribed for by the town. He figured that there would be between twenty and twenty-five thousand dollars more to be taken in Monday and that by Tuesday, the ex- act amount of bonds taken could be ‘ascertained. He, however, quoted the ollowing flgures:as being correct up to Saturday night: “Windham National Bank.... iWillimantic Trust Company. {Willilmantic Thread Com- i pany (officlals) ....... 100,000 “Willlmantic Thread Com- 2 pany (employes) ......... 104,700 $566,550 { the quota for the town of am was $403,000, it can be read- "Windh: 17!3' seen that the old town has done its| its | it once more and oversubscribed $150,000 or 13 ‘quota by at least which amount will doubt be in ‘creased when the final figures are in.

However, the deficit is easily taken care of by the oversubscriptions of the oiner two Windhams. At Windham Center, the campaign as in the two previcus‘lpans, was conducted by the patriotic women, under the direction of Mrs. H. C. Lathrop, and at South Windham, Walter Abbe, Jr, captain- ed the team.. Both towns subscribed 30 per cent. and 135 per cent. of their quotas respectively. The local - organization of Boy Scouts have a record to be proud of in all loan campaigns. In thi last campaign they were not permit- ted to canvass until the last week, when the cream of the town had been skimmed there was comparatively lit- tle left for them to work on. 7 active members in the organ- d they secured 158 individ- . riptions amounting to $15,- iuring the past week.
