"Buy Liberty bonds! Buy Lib- erty bonds! Help Uncle Sam!" was the shell cry which startled throngs in the lobby of the coun- ty building as Psittacus did his bit? Psittacus is vain on conceit- ed and refused to pose for his pic- ture, but after much coaxing and after? a few casualties had been offered by the coaxers Psittacus capitulated. Psittacus is a parrot and one of the? chief aids of Mrs. Philip Breg- stone, who is in charge of the bond booth in the county building. Misses Lousie Chavin, Mollie Et- telson and Minnie Lesserman and Mrs. Leslie Daniels also aid Mrs. Bregstone in collecting Uncle Sam's loan. To date the subscrip- tons at this booth have been over $80,000 Today the Marks Nathan Jew- ish Orphans' home band of thir- ty-five pieces will play during the day to attract buyers to this bond booth. BUY LIBERTY BONDS.
