GREAT DRIVE 1011 S3,500; 00
" TO CARRY ON T. M.
n- The following letter has been sent
q_ out by J. A. Sawyer, county chairman,
und tells its own story:
G- "Union, S. C., Nov. 12, 1917.
] _ "Dear Sir:
"At one of the greatest mass meet1*1*
ings ever held in Union county in the
ks courthouse on Saturday, Nov. 10th,
j. Dr. A. W. Beavers, of Camp Wadsworth,
made a patriotic plea for our
1"1- support in the raising of the $35,000,000
for the Army Y. M. ('. A. Union
I county's share is $.'{,500. There was
an immediate and heart-felt response
to this Christian call. Dr. Beavers
explained the great working of the
Ifj Y. M. C. A., and emphasized the obligations
which rests upon us as a patriotic
and Christian people.
"The county organization followed
immediately and the following resolutions
were adopted for the county
campaign:
"First, Be it resolved: That the
^ ' territory be devided up into school districts
and each district be allotted its
share; its share to be determined by
the taxable property in said district.
"Second, Be it resolved: That the
school trustees of each district be appointed
as a committee and that they
* be empowered to appoint two others
on said committee to advise and work
with them.
"Pledge cards and any other desirable
material can be had by applying
ts to the undersigned. As to the method
^p. of campaign, you and your .committee
v are to use your own discretion. If
31 you desire to have a get-together
nipoi i n rr in flto 4U:~ 1
HIV v. (41 IJ JHIU U1 llll^ Wt'CK
and want a speaker to address your
people along the line of the work,
l(r please notify me at once as to the
>11 date, the hour, and the place, and I
' will have a speaker there to speak
SS to you. You should have as many
people, ladies and all, out as possible.
If .however, you think that your people
need no further information and
you want to start a house-to-house
campaign at once?apply for cards.
"Trusting that you will heed the
call of your country and give this
y matter your earliest consideration.
Know ye that a week is only seven
days and that this campaign begins
November 12th and ends the 18th.
"Your co-worker in this mighty conflict,
and your friend,
"Very sincerely,
in "J. A. Sawyer,
^ "Chairman."

The county, outside of the city of
Union, has been divided into districts,
each school district constituting a
district, and the school trustees of
each district have been appointed as
the committee for their district, with
the power of appointing two other
persons, either men or ladies, to serve
with them as such committees. All
school trustees have received notice
of their appointment, and they are
urged to "get ready" and make an
lOL-wve campuiKn mis weeK.
I If the trustees in any district wish
to have a meeting one night this
week or on next Sunday, either during
the morning hour, or an afternoon
mass meeting, at their school house
or at one of the churches in their
community, and will arrange for same
and advertise same and advise me of
such, T will be glad to arrange to have
a speaker for any such meeting who
can explain the objects and the urgent
needs of the funds we are asked TS,
to raise. Two or three such meetings
have already been asked for and
arrangements are being made to make
them a real success.
I cm sure that we do not realibe
the importance and the great need of
this work. We need to be informed
as to this. If we onlykne w the
urgency of this matter and could get
the inspiration that those present at
the great mass meeting at the courthouse
last Saturday the $3,500 asked
of this county would be subscribed in
a day.
All committees are asked to call at
my office at once and get the Pledge
Cards and other literature on the
subject, and be ready for the GREAT
DRIVE in this county, not later . ian
I* rulay morning at 9 o'clock.
Men and women of Union county,
remember the boys at the FRONT and
more are to follow, many from Union
county need your help. 1 et's support
them in every possible way. It is a
little as we can do, even when we
have done our best.

County Chairman.
