With ten days of the carepaign re-

surely be counted on to put the loan
over the top. Other comMunities have
already exceeded their quotas, and
it should not be expecting too much
of citizens of dile CoentY to loan
to their goeernment it total of two
milifon dollars. In 1919 Bruce County,
residents invested 3% million dollars
