Although about 3500,000 of the
$851,000 War Bond quota for New
berry county has been raised, Chair
man E. B. Purcell points out that the
long, hard pull will be in -raising the
additional $351,000. Most of the
latter amounts will have to come from
small Bond buyers and the large
firms are represented in the amounts
already raised. Ohairman Purcell
urges all Bond workers to continue
their efforts and to push the cam
paign vigorously in order that the
campaign be a success. The pur
chase of small bonds by a large num
ber of people is desired, said Mr.
Purcell, as the government is anx
ious that as many people as can
possibly do so hold these government
securities against the days of depres
sion sure to follow the close of the
war.
Five additional communities have
raised their quotas since our last is

now in England. He has written
Henry C. Holloway as follows:
“I promised to keep you informed

you that I am now on a ship hegded
for England. We’ve been at sea for
quite some time now and so far I
haven’t suffered from sea sickness;
as a matter of fact I have enjoyed
my trip very much. Our dally rou
tine aboard ship consists of eating,
sleeping, reading, and of course
there’s quite a bit of card playing.”^.

Anyway, just at the close of the
Teheran Conference, Mr. Roosevelt
casually mentioned that he had had a
dream—that he had become the Pres
ident of the whole world. Mr. Church
(Sicily, July 11, 1943), Sgt. Owens,
utterly disregarding his own safety,
remained on board and under con
tinued enemy fire aided not only his
own gun crew, but also other men
on that part of th^ ship to abandon
ship.
“After all the men except the cap
tain and first mate of the ship had
abandoned ship. Sgt. Owens then left
the Ship and aided men who were
unable to swim to lifeboats. His
courage in face of great danger set a
high example to all his comrades.”
The Newberry sergeant is a mem
ber of an anti-aircraft battalion.
That’s What We Want To Know
Quite a few of our soldiers have a
word or so to say about clergymen
and others who are deploring the
bombing of German cities and about
rough battle tactics in general. For
the most part they’re pretty well
epitomized by Staff Sergeant Marion
A. Venturini USAAF. “We in uni
form fear that certain of you people
at home are going a little soft. Par
ticularly those who think it horrible
that our troops are using flame
throwers. What the hell do they
think the enemy is using, fly spray?”
And Top Sergeant Barney Trukus,
USA, takes this opportunity of tell
ing whom it may concern that it is
possible that the failure of the sol
diers to vote in large numbers will
not be a calamity to our federal ad-
mniistration. “I haven’t taken any
ipolls,’’ says Sergeant Trukus, “but
seventy-five per cent of the Joes I’ve
talked to would vote against any
body in office just on general princi
ples. They ain’t sore. Just agin the
government, like good Joes always
have been.’’

something he ate. After a small si

28th September, 1943. He stands in
the unbroken line of patriots who
