been desig-
nated as “The Fighting Loan,”
by reason of toe fact, no doubt,
that more than a million of toe
American boys are now “over
there” and in the fighting line.
Realizing this, and the great
importance of the success of
Ij, this loan, the enterprising citi-
. zenship of the progressive little
saw mill town of Kelty*, just be-
yond the corporate limits of
p -- Lufkin, lost no time in getting •
jthi* busy on her quota for Angelina
' County and long before the
noon hour today announced
that she had already gone con-
siderably “over the top.” That
is mighty good for Keltys and
™ the balance of old Angelina
at County should follow up with-
h« out the loss of time. Keltys ha*
be truly set an example that is
commendable in the highest de-
gree and is entitled to the palm «
