CROSS IS DOING

(By Mrs. B. Selkirk, Press Chairman)
The Carson Valley Chapter of the
lied Cross Society held a meeting at
the c. w. |. G. hall at Minden last
Friday night at which time a number
OF important matters were brought
before the members. An executive
committee consisting of the follow
ing was appointed:
Fred Dangberg, president; Mrs.
Geo. A. Montrose, vice-president; A.
Ratcliff, secretary; Geo. A. Montrose,
II. r. Mack, Earl Christensen, and
f. ]. Phillips. The Farmers Bank OF
Carson Valley was made treasurer.
The matter of having a permanent
work room was brought up resulting
IN securing quarters in the high
school building for that purpose
| The officers of Carson Valley
Chapter are as follows: H. F. Dang
berg. chairman; Mrs. Geo. A. Mon
trose, lst vice-chairman, Mrs. W. M.
AIaule, End vice president, Alfred R.
Ratcliff, secretary. Farmers Bank of
Carson Valley, treasurer.
DR.. F. r. Brown, chairman Of civil
ian relief; Fred Settelmeyer. chair
iaan of military relief; Mrs. ]. A.
Cardinal, membership; Mrs. B. Sell
kirk, publicity; Geo. Henningsen,
finance.
Mrs. g. Hampson of Minden was
chosen as chairwoman of the knitting
and work room and hes already ord
cred material for making twenty-five
sent of garments for soldier consist
ing of socks, wristlets, sleeveless
sweaters and scarf. This work will
require the earnest cooperation OF
every lady in Douglas county who
can knit and who can spare at least
one afternoon a week, to work for
cur boys in France. II there are any
ladies in this county that feel they
would like to assist in this work, and
who are not members of the Red
Cross, they should send their names
and 81 TO Mrs. j. A. Cardinal at Min
den and communicate with Mrs.
Hampson regarding knitting. where
full instructions may be received.
| Let us all get together in this great
work, and if you cannot knit, there
will be bandage making, hospital leg
g.ngs and many articles which must
be made at once.
The national chapter has asked that
all auxiliaries earnestly work on the
knitted garments first. SO they will be
ready for our boys when the cold and
stormy weather approaches
The membership committee has
been doing some very good work, hav-
ing secured over 800 members to
date. They have set the 500 mark as
their goal and it is thought that this
number is by no means too high for
this county. Ex-President Roosevelt
once said, 81 hope that all patriotic
and humane men, women and child
ren of the United States, who are
able to do so, will give it (the Red
Cross their support by becoming
members of our national organization.
Carson Valley has shown great
interest in Red Cross work through
large membership and donations, and
with continued good work. our
chapter shall stand second to none
in doing its share in the worlds
greatest work-the Red Cross.

The market on provisions is decid-

have taken place on all pork cuts.
The advance in the hog market can
be expected to continue for some time
yet and prices will undoubtedly re.
main as high as at present for a long
time to come.
II is apparent that there is a SER

profit.
The market on fat steers still con-
tinue weak.
Fat cows are in large supply and
decidedly weaker.
Spring lambs are considerably
stronger and the tendency in prices
Is upward.
The wool market is not showing
any great activity in the East; values
remain the same. The mills seem to
lie holding off committing themselves
for any extended line until the gov
ernment representatives have finished
going over the stocks recently offered
them.
The market on hides is decidedly

CONFLICTING BATTLE REPORTS

In view of the conflicting reports from Berlin on the one hand and from London and Paris the other con- corning the series of battles being fought along the western front it is well to bear in mind the point of view from which these reports are written
 The Germans regard every forward thrust of the ene- my as an attempt to break through The British and French insist these operations where little gain is regst cred are merely to out the Germans and force them to use up their power and throw in the reserves
 The battle of the Marne generally regarded as one of the decisive engagements of history Yet in reporting the Berlin war office chrOniced "a guard ac on fought so as to enable engineers to build ntrench mens in the rear We took 3900 of the enemy prisoners in this engagement"
 If the battle of the Mane was really German vic tory as appears from this report may have to revise all our views of the war Perhaps may ean in time the reason the Germans did not take Paris not be- cause they whipped and turned back but because be- ing good sportsmen they decided not to take advantage of the upreparedness of the French and English but to dig themselves in for few years until the enemy was able to cope with them-(Juneau Empire)

PERSHING

When John Joseph Pershing and his little army of American regulars land in France to return the favor eX tended by Marquis de Lafayette there is certain Brit Sh general of brigade who occupies unique position and here's bet that he will know he has been somewhere be- fore tn war is over though he be already veteran

 But back to John J. and his British brgadier aide John one of Americas finest and foremost field of ficer He is cavaryman, ordnance officer lawyer instructor in military tactics and StrategiSt par excel lence. He was an observer with Gen. KurOkiS army in NIanchura and all know how he put our midget force into Mexico last year just far he could reach they became alarmed back Washington lest his line of communication be broken. His army did not have to sort to trench warfare and bombng but it's safe bet they have studied up on it and here's another tip
 After John gets started the world will know lot more than it does about the efficiency of the Hndenberg method of fighting If there is weak spot Johns men will have the steel into it in Jg time.

Authorities Say French
Finances Are Still Good

100000 francs annually. These fig
ures show that. formidable as the
war debt may appear, the problem Of
It's liquidation Is not so alarming
after all.
France can stand another year OF
war outlay quite as we'll as she stood
the third year.
II do not think any country will be
ruined by the war. All are more or
less in the same situation as France.
The only real drain upon their re-
sources Is what they pay abroad. The
best expenditure is that which might
be called fictitious; that is, the trans
fer Of money from the pockets Of
some citizens to the pockets of 9TH
ers, transfer in which a great many
new fortunes have been built up, but
in which the real riches Of the coun-
try have been left untouched.
Referring to economic measures to
be taken after the war and to the
complaints by Germany Of an effort
to ruin her. NJ. eide said:

the fighting has almost subsided. ]
