get into a bit Of mess at Bullecourt.
It looked as though the Fritxes had
surrounded them and had their ma
chine guns working overtime on
them. We got q bit of our men back
from that all the same. We were
rushed up q sunken road. The major
told the chaps to keep still as mice as
Fritz was coming along. Dawn was
Just breaking. Some one got excited
and yelled out Come on Fritz we're
ready for you.' The major cursed
bit. l was afraid they would hear
him. Then the major shouted Now
boys let 'em have IT, Then things
happened. We all got up. cheering
like mad. and went for a thick mob
Of Fritzes we could Just pick out as
the light grew. The air was full Of
curses and cries. and you could hear
the thuds as Australian rifle butts
hit Fritz's head piece. They didn't
stick It long, and we went clean

into another lot. and went through
them too. I never saw anything like

CHICAGO MAKES GOOD

CHICAGO MAKES GOOD
We wish to refer to an interesting
fact in connection with the Red Cross
campaign in Chicago. We are not
talking shop.
The authorities at Washington.
prior to their launching the Red
Cross drive for 500, 900. 900, made
IN effort for largely increasing the
membership in the Red Cross in all
sections Of the country. Ways and
means were carefully discussed. Sew
eral methods were inaugurated as ex-
periments. To Chicago was given the
task Of proving the efficiency or lack
thereof. Of newspaper advertising.
At the beginning Of the expert
mont, Chicago had 1900 members
ef the Red Cross. On the same date
81. Louis had $4,000: Cleveland. 5o.-
900: Pittsburg. $4,000; Boston, 50.-
600: and New York. 125.oo0. Chi
cago was considered poor territory in
which to work for Red Cross.
The goal set was $50. 900 members
In thirty days.
Those in charge of the campaign
were given the newspaper advertis-
ing experiment to try out. They had
no funds with which to pay for the
space, so they asked prominent bus
iness firms Of that city to donate 35
fun pages in Chicago newspapers to
the cause. They were successful in
this request.
Seventeen full pages in the news
papers were used the first few days
OF the campaign, and over 100000
members were signed during that
time. At the end Of three weeks,
100000 members were secured and
the goal was changed to 250,000.
with no further effort 900. 900 mem
bers we're enrolled for the Red Cross
by the 30th day Of campaign. and
returns are still coming in. Many Of
the members were in the 81, IS. $40
and $25 classes. the average from all
members being $1.56.
Comparison with other cities
Shovs that tho cost in securing new
members was less In Chicago than in
any other large city enrolling any
considerable number. Washington
Red Cross officials state that the
average cost OF securing membership
is between Is cents and 20 cents
each, per dollar membership. The
campaign In New York cost over 20
cents per member
The result Of the Chicago Red
Cross campaign has led members OF
congress to seriously propose that
the government should create an ad-
vertising fund to educate the people
up to their full responsibility in this
war; in other words, sell them the
war and our duty to the country
through, newspaper advertising neg
land has been forced to this method
in her successive bond issues.

HOUSE PASSES 7.
DRY BILL
Eight Out of Eleven Kentucky Con-
gressmen Vote for Nationwide
Dry Bill.

The Nation wide Prohibition bill
was carried in Congress Monday by
vote of 282 to 12S. The Ken
lucky Congressman all voted for
the bill with the exception of
Swager Sherley, A. B. Rouse and
Campbell Cantrill, who voted
against same with Cantrill making
a speech against the adoption of
the measure. The bill as passed is
only slightly different from the one
passed by the Senate last fall and
only-the adjustment of these slight
differences by resolutions stands
in the way of submitting to the
State legislatures an amendment to
the Federal constitution forbidding
the manufacture, sale or importa-'
tion of Intoxicating liquors for bev-
erage purposes within the United
States and its territories.
When the bill was before the Sen
ate last fall Senator j. C. w. Beck
ham was one Of its staunchest sup
porters while Senator Ollie M.
James voted against the bill.
Prohibitionists all over the coun-
try are iuBilant over the great vic
tory. When Speaker Clark an
nounced the result of the vote she
victors were joined by the galleries
in such a demonstration as is rarely
permitted in the House.
The Presidents approval is not
required and the state legislatures
may act as soon as they please az
ter the signatures of the vice pres-
dent and Speaker Clark have been
attached to it.
Following is the text of the Shep-
pard-Webb resolution as adopted:
"Resolved, by the Senate and
House of Representatives, That the
following amendment to the ConstI-
tuition be, and hereby is, proposed
to the States, to become valid as n
part of the Constitution when rati-
fed by the Legislatures of the sew
eral States as provided by the Con-
stitution:
"Article =, Section AFTER one
year from the ratification of this
article the manufacture, sale or
transportation of intoxicating liq-
uors within, the importation there
of into, or the expectation thereof
from the United States and all ter
ritory subject to the jurisdiction
thereon Tor beverage purposes Is
hereby prohibited.
"Section 2-TRe Congress and the
several States shall have concurrent
power to enforce this article by
appropriate legislation.
"Section 3-This article shall be
imperative unless it shall have been
ratified as an amendment to the
Constitution by the Legislatures OF
the several States, as provided in
the Constitution, within seven years
from the date Of the submission
hereof to the States by the Con-
gress."
