organizations to respond to the appeal for war bond purchases during the
current Second War Loan Drive and representatives of the organization
are shown above, purchasing a $1000 bond from War Finance Committeemen.

In the background is Eau Claire's Master War Bond Roll Call, posted
in the lobby of the State Theater, where it will bear the names of
thousands of people who have signed smaller scrolls in various city
issuing agencies, as evidence of extra bond purchases this month. |
