HURRAH FOR MANILA

| The splendid record made by the
| citizens OF Manila in raising money
Tor the Red Cross should win the ap
| plause of every patriotic citizen Of
the county. and for that matter, OF the
state and nation. It seems almost in
credible that in a town the size of Ma
! nilla Eli amount Of money. approxi
matcly $4,000, could be raised at a
meeting OF its citizens when weather
conditions were most unfavcrablc. II
is said the ambition of the community
is to increase the amount to $4,000.
and that the prospects Of accomplish
ing. this arc most flattering. This. no
doubt, will place Manila as the ban
ner town, in the limited States as a
contributor to the Red Gross tty;...
benson had glnade3 q / remarkable
record at the meeting "a, week ago last
Sunday. night in raising practically
$4,000; but Denison is willing to ac-
cord the palm to Manila, judging by
what has been accomplished up to
date. We have. however, thought that
Denison had not exhausted itself in
giving, but later on would add to what
the city has already given. This coun.
ty is taking the lead in the exhibition
or patriotism and devotion in this hour
of the nations peril. We do not. how
ever. wish to belittle the honor and
glory due the people of Manila. by
making comparisons, and find it a real
pleasure to join with the other patriot
.ic people of Denison in hurrahing for
Manila. ....
