ASKS AID FOR THE CHINESE
GOVERNOR ISSUES PRocLAMA
TON TO PEOPLE.
Call For Funds For the Starving
Thousands--State Treasurer viii
Receive Donations.


Des Moines, Ia, March Especial:
Gov. b. +. Carroll has issued proc.
lamation to the people of Iowa calling
upon them to assist In creating re-
lief fund from America for the fam
Inc sufferers of China. The procla.
nation follows: ..u.. ..
AS president of the American Red
Cross for Iowa, want to call the
|attention of the people of our state
to the proclamation issued by Presi-
dent William II. Taft, as president of
the American Red Cross, asking aid
for the multitudes in China who are
dying OF starvation because of the
famine now existing there. The re-
ports from that far distant country
show that the people are in dire dis
tress. Terrible suffering is resulting
from complete crop failures in the
interior, and no call for charitable aid
in recent years is more deserving of
immediate response on the part of
our prosperous and generous-minded
people.
"On former occasions when pesti-
lence and misfortune have visited 9TH
er countries and other communities,
the people of Iowa have responded lib
orally to. the call for help and charity.
1t is hoped that they will again con-
tribute generously to this urgent call
OF the American Red Cross.
This organization in Iowa, the Off
GERS of which have been appointed by
the national board, will work in con:
junction with the boards in other
states. Hon. w. w. Morrow, the
treasurer of state, is the treasurer of
the Iowa Red Cross, and he is author
lied to receive all moneys and the
contributions of supplies rendered to
him for this purpose. Arrangements
have been made by President Taft for
the use of army transports and with
transportation companies for the de-
livery of such supplies. The Seattle
commercial club has been named as
the distributing agent and all contri.
buttons made by our Iowa people will
be Immediately forwarded to them.
Il wish to repeat here the procla.
nation of President Taft and to rec
ommend generosity and liberality on
the part of our people in the carrying
out of the same. The presidents pro-
clamation is as follows:
las president of the American Red
Cross, | appeal to the people of this
country to aid the unfortunate multi.
tudes who are dying of starvation be.
cause of famine in China, either by
money contributions, which should be
sent to the local Red Cross treasur-
ers, or to the Red Cross, Washington,
ID. c., or by assisting in raising a car.
go of flour and other suitable supplies
to be, sent TO these people.
Congress has granted the use of
an army transport to the Red Cross
for this purpose. The Seattle Com
mercial club of Seattle, Wash, is co.
operating with the Red Cross and will
act as receiving and forwarding agent
for all supplies. | trust that our peo-
pie will respond generously, and that
the transportation lines will aid in
the delivery at Seattle

to the date of his departure than

The marriage of Miss Beck and Mr..
Baldauf is the contamination of a
happy little romance, as unusual as
il is pretty. Some time ago a young
lady friend of MIR. Raldauf was start
ing for the West TO enjoy trip
among the coast cities. In saying
"ou revOir," MI. Baldauf jokingly
pleaded with his friend to find him
a girl in the West. He insisted that
he had q desire for marriage and as
serted that the Oskaloosa girls did
not look with favor upon his suit. He
received assurance that suitable
girl should be found for him and the
young lady friend, carrying out the
spirit of the thing, brought about a
correspondence and meeting between
the principals, when to the surprise
and pleasure of all it became known
that Mrs. Baldauf, mother of Leo, and
lady, had been school girls and the
closest of friends in their Eastern
home. They had separated after
school and had not heard of each 9TH
er in many years. The engagement
of Mr.. Baldauf and the young lady
was announced soon afterwards.
Prior to his departure for Portland,
Nj. Baldauf was variously showered
and feted by his companions and as
socates, one of the most enjoyable
of affairs being rendered by the Red
Cats a social club of young men
of which the groom-elect had been an
officer and a booster. A supper was
served and Leo was the victim of AL
manner of jokes. He was entertained
at suppers and lodge events and sur
prises were met everywhere until to
avoid further attentions, Mr.. Baldauf
quietly dorpped out of sight one even
ing and departed for the West, leav-
ing behind several uncompleted pro-
grams that had been intended for his
entertainment.
