NAMED AS STATE CHAIRMAN

The annual meeting of the Delaware
Chapter Of the Red Cross Society was

national meeting in Washington next
week with Mrs. George w. Marshall.
Of Milford. and Mrs Lewis w. Mus
tard, Of Lewes, as alternates.
The treasurer's report, read by Mr..
Candy, showed a balance of s479.44
from the Christmas stamp sale of last
year, and Red Cross Relief S2,939. 80,
both amounts being applied to the
building of the infrmary at Hope
Farm last year The society decided to
maintain a free bed at Hope Farm
with all receipts from the anti-tuber-
culosis funds, as such bed is greatly
needed.
Miss Bissell, as secretary, then read
her annual report. She reported five
subdivisions of Delaware Chapter be-
sides the Wilmington headdlNrters.
These subdivisions are Smyrna, Mil
ford, Dover, Georgetown and Lewes,
and all have helped I'm the active work
done last year.
The reorganization of the national
society, last year whereby instead Of
state societies, there are chapters. has
!. led to some perplexity I'm the minds of
Delaware members. but Miss Bisseil
explained the change is only I'm name,
and not in status. Miss 'Bissell said
that. possibly owing to this perplexity.
there were still annual dues to be

sell gave an account Of the activities
OF the National Society-in which Del
aware had a part-last year. The Red
Cross, working through the Illinois
Chapter, and the national director, Mr..
Bicknell, gave food and relief to the
sufferers in the Cherry mine disaster
and arranged to care fo- helpless
widows and children for a number of
years if needed. Secondly. through the
French Red Cross, S43. 600 was sent
by the American Red Cross for suf-
ferers in the Paris floods
Then $4,000 was sent by the Ameri-
can society to the relief Of the starry
ing soldiers OF Zelaya's surrendered
army, in Nicaragua Through the
Servian Red Cross, the American so
ciety sent $500 to the victims of the
floods in Servia. Two mining disasters
IN Alabama and the earthquake in
Costa Rica, were other disasters IN
which Red C-oss funds and the per-
sonal service of Red Cross officials
were given.
The moral Of all this is to buy the
Red Cross Christmas stamp. that this
sort of work may be continued.

DIR. COOK MAKES
A CONFESSION.

Continued from First Page)
with him. and part of the time his
too.
Children In France.
The children are now in retreat |
H. France, and DR.. Cook and his wife
are I'm Europe. Most of the time dur
ing his exile, he has been in London.
He has gone about among Americans
there with the utmost freedom and
at times has gone about under his
own name.
Only a few have guessed his identity
although there probably never has
been a man whose photographs have
been so widely and often printed.
Even those who did guess the identity
OF the exile were turned away with
ease by the remark the doctor used
every time any one would say he
looked like DR.. Cook:
"Why yes, have been told that be-
fore"
With the opportunity for thought
that his exile has given him-he- says
he never even had time to sleep more
than three or four hours a night be-
tween his arrival in Copenhagen and
his disappearance from New York
he has found growing stronger and
stronger the desire to return to his
own country to be understood by his
countrymen He realized better than
anyone else the esteem in which he
was held.
Called y Great Liar.
81 have been called the greatest
liar in the world, the most monu-
mental imposter in history" he says,
in starting his story:s
81 believe tha, in an undesirable
way stand unGualiiiedly, the object
of viuperation and suspicion as
have assailed few men,"
lt was this realization that set DR..
Cook to work on his story. He has
said since beginning the preparation
of his narrative that to him the honor
of discovering the North Pole no long
er means anything. His sole desire
is to make the people Of the United
States realize just what he went
through during his two and One-half
years in the Arctic Businesses, and to
make them see what process of think
ing or lack of thinking it was that led
him to do the thing which confirmed
to the average mind the worst sus-
picions against him.
DR.. Cook has been working on his
story since August and has revised it
so that every point is said to be clear.
In order that there may be no doubt
about the story's authenticity, Dr.
Cook prepared inLondon an autograph
statement certifying to the genuine
ness of the four articles. In this
statement Cook says:
"In these articles I frankly present
conclusions as to whether or not I
actually reached the North Pole.
These constitute the only authorita-
tive statements from me since leav-
ing New York in November, 1909 I
now fully and for the first time take
this opportunity of stating my case
to the American people"
VIII Return TO This Country.
Cook win return to the United
States with his wife and children,
December %, in order to spend
Christmas among his relatives.
The men who have been associated
with him during the prepartion Of
his story say that Cook is looking
better to-day than he has any time
since he arrived in New York, a lit
tie over a year ago. He has had an
opportunity TO rest and think. and in
stead Of his flight having harassed
him into i'll health it seems to have
had just the opposite effect.

TOM CORW|N HERE
ON FRIDAY NIGHT.
Funniest Man on Chautau-
qua Stage Coming to
ArmOry.

You can't well afford to miss hearing
Tom Corwin, the polyphonic artist, at
the Armory, Friday night. He is a
high class artist in class by himself
There is not dull moment. His imita-
tons are truly marvellous, and then there
is instrumental and vocal music.
Edward r. Weeks and Company were
good; the Temple Quartette were fine,
but the best comes last.
In his literary and humorous sketches
he is truly wonderful-n fact he stands
alone. 1t is to be doubted if any
Chautauqua throughout the whole
south can boast of a higher class of
entertainers than has been offered BY
the Rifles.
Won't you help them this last chance.
You will lend helping hand in a
worthy cause and enjoy the enter
tainment too.
