Fargo's monthly budget compaign
for the Red Cross is going strong.
Twenty OF 26 districts had re-
ported $50 monthly pledges for ST.
551.s6 to noon today. besides .226
service pledges.
This means that the campaign 10
noon today has netted an annual in
come Of $1s,6l9.92. with three and a
half days yet to 20.
The campaign managers are elat-
ed, the district chairmen and work
sTs are eIated and Fargo citizens in
general are elated. The best is still
to come, however.
Reports Are Better.
Reports today are better than for
Tuesday indicating that the cam
paign policy of meeting citizens in
their homes in the evening Is bring
ing results. Several district chair
men said this morning that the plan
was working out in great style, and
that in all cases their workers met
with a fine reception.
The number of service pledges re-
ported today was also larger than
Tuesday. Two hundred and twenty
six women have indicated their will
ingness to give of their time. as well
as of their earnings or incomes.
District No. IA. of which Rev. Thos.
Graham, pastor of the First Presby-
teFian church, is chairman, was
high today. reporting 30 pledges for
36s.53. District No. %. j. l.. Carter,
reported 81 pledges for ss5.ls. Dis
tricts Nos. IL and % were tied with
AZ pledges each, though No. IL re-
ported $4917 to s3I.55 for No. %.
District No. 9 with Is pledges re-
ported S52.24.
The electrically lighted Red Cross
sign. placed up town by w. f. Cush-
ing late Tuesday. was blown down

ever.
II Fargo people are going to come
to the front with a pledge that VIII
set the record for the state, they
must continue coming forward with
their pledges in a lively manner dur
ing the balance Of the week.
Up to the present time, pledge
reports aggregate slightly more
than half the total amount collected
at Minot, where s34. 900 was realized
in a Red Cross campaign.
But Minot has at least 10000 less
people than Fargo. and that puts the
issue up pretty squarely 70 the peo-
pie of this city.
chairmen 20 Talk Plans.
At a meeting OF the campaign
chairmen to be held at 1878 o'clock
Thursday noon. plans for the last
work of the week will be made. The
chairmen recognize the Importance
of maintaining the hard work right
up to the last minute. The Thursday
conference will be held at the An
mex hotel, and each man pays for
his own lunch.
Meeting an Argument.
The argument that the nation
should care for its wounded was put
UP to one committee by a Fargo man
yesterday.
That man fails to understand the
real purposes and the real nature oG
the Red Cross work.
1t Is true that the nation cares for
it's soIdiers-clothes them, cares for
them when wounded, etc, but the
nation doesn't engage in the work OF
mercy essential to the saving Of lives
Of the refugee women and children In
France and Belgium; 1t doesn't so
in for work among the Serbian and
Armenian refugees, nor does il reach
a thousand and one other flelcH OF
work that the Red Cross does reach.
Surely, this is no time to withhold
support from tire Red Cross.
