Sapulpa ha* crossed the bar anE
gone ‘over the top.”
Long before the sun had set last
night reports showed that the maxi-
mum quota of *556.000 had been
safely reached with more than *37.oog
above the mark. To be exact Sapul-
;uvns suttscribed for Liberty bonds up
to yesterday for a grand total of
*593,300. Complete report, from tha
Drumrlght and Bristow Uriels
showed the total receipts last nigh
for the county to be »U39.000 and
only *53,GOO removed from the coun-
ty maximum of *1.193.000.
But not content with this smash-
ing victory for democracy Chairman
H H. Johnson and Oeorge Wilmsrth
gathered their corps about them this
morning and after handing out final
instructions dispatched them on the
last leg of the drive for the rema n-
ing thousands yet to be brought tn.
The Sapulpa Army of Liberty hav-
ing gained the victory for which they
worked so hard at home was cut up
into squads and hurried to other
towns in the district where much
missionary work remained to be done
before the loan campaign i>assed In-
to history.
However, the drive did not lag for
a moment In Sapulpa. Not content
with the wonderful accomplishment
already turned in * «•** n,ark
*100,000 was fixed to work for and
at the rate subscriptions for bond*
were turning In at the banks this
morning the Jeader. were ronfid-nt
that final returns would show that
even this amount would be passed.
The campaign will not come to a
close till far Into the night. The
four banks of the city will remain
open tonight as long as there are
purchasers for bonds. While no def-
inite hour has been set for closing
It is probable that the doors will
remain open until midnight.
This being pay day for hundreds
of workers, clerks and professions!
people a veritable deluge of bond
purchases Is expected to develop at
the last minute that will tax the
clerical forces of all the banking In-
stitutions. In fact the last minute
subscriptions began to come In with
a rush the minute bank doors were
thrown open this morning and before
noon there was more business than
could be cared for at some of them.
The town of Kiefer, which strug-
gled along for days with only a few
sales and which was looked upon as
the weak Bister In the Sapulpa dis*
trlet. Is rounding to and reports from
there at noon indicated that the full
quota of a trifle more than *70.000
would he subscribed before the cam-
paign swan song was canted.
Three days ago Kiefer had raised
only about *4.000, Reinforcement,
were hurried to the point of trouble
from Sapulpa and the pulmotor ap-
plied with vigor. Results were forth-
coming immediately. The last re-
ports were that more than *42,000-
had been subscribed and that work-
er, there were writing more every
minute.
Mounds was next with *38,000 and
Kellyville third with *12,000, making
t<g!,noo in all for the three other
towns In the Sapulpa district. The
Bristow district subscribed »• &>»
quota of *200.000 and overshot the
mark a day or two ago. Depew wae
the first town In the county to come
through with a full maximum quota.
Last reports from Drumrlght, re-
ceived this morning by Chairman
Johnson, showed that district to bar
sold *256.500 worth of bonds up t
last night. The district1, quota la
*311,000 and leader, there declared
'ootlnued on Pm® 4.)
