A house to tiouae campaign for the support of the NRA . movement in Camden will get under way at 8:30 Monday morning, under the directorship of Miss Olive Whittredge, Major of the Volunteer National Recovery Sales Army.

The object of this part of the cam- , paign is to secure fronj every consumer an agreement that he will patronize only those merchants and producers who are conforming with the rules of the NRA.
