The record. [volume] (St. Maries, Idaho) 1913-1918, 1917-06-29

The executive committee which
had charge of the work of raising
the amount of the Red Cross fund
apportioned to this county held
a meeting Wednesday evening to
hear the report of the secretary
and to check over the list of con-
tributors and see that they Tailed
with the amount of cash ON hand.
AS was stated in our Tuesdays $
issue, the amount raised i'm the
county was more than double the
allotment. The amount appor-
toned to the county was $1,000
while the amount actually raised
was SiO89.47. In making out
the final statement the secretary
grouped the names together with
reference to the amounts con-
tributed instead of their resi-
dcnce, that is, the $4,000
contributors i'm one list, those
giving $1,000 i'm another, the S25
contributors i'm another etc. For
this reason it is impossible for
us to give the amounts cOntri-
buted by each community, or even
the amount raised i'm This city.
All that we can say is that the
amount raised i'm this city was
between two and three thousand
dollars and that every community
in the county responded literally
to the call upon them.
There were no extremely large
contributions to swell the total
There were only two 500 con-
tributions and four of $4,000
Twenty-three contributors gave
$500 each; three gave $1,000
and seven contributed $500
each. Fifty-fve gave $1,000
each and one person donated 81
One hundred and sixty contri-
buted $500 each and Si582.4l
was contributed by persons who
gave less than five dollars each.
These figures show that the
giving was not confined to an,
particular class or condition il
life. All gave all that they coulC
afford to and some whose con-
tributions were small probabl,
gave more in proportion to wha
they could actually afford thar
