RED GROSS PLANS CHRISTMAS DRIVE
 ID GET MEMBERS

A nationwide Christmas member ship drive has been planned by the Red Cross war council. The building up of Red Cross membership to 15,- O0O,0OO in the United States is the goal of the campaign. This means an addition of approximately 1O,OOO,000 names to the present muster roll. The drive is to start December IT and continue unceasingly to Christmas Eve. The general features of the membership campaign were worked put and approved at a conference at national headquarters of the Red in which representatives O., each Red Cross division of continental United States participated.
 A national Christmas membership drive committee has been appointed by the war council to have general charge of planning and later conduct ing the whole campaign. Theodore N. Vail, president of the American Tele- graph and Telephone company, has ac- cepted the chairmanship and Dr. H. N. MacCracken, president of Vassar col lege, will be executive secretary. 9th CT members of the committee are: His Iminence James Cardinal Gibbons; Bishop William Lawrence, Boston; Dr. Henry Van Dyke, former minister to the Netherlands, Princeton, N. J.; John A. Britton, San Francisco; Ben jamin Gratz, St. Louis; Ban Johnson, Chicago; Hervey Lindley, Seattle; John Mitchell, New York City.
 Make it Red Cross Christmas" is to be the recruiting slogan. Every one taking out a membership in the Red Cross during the drive period is known as Christmas Member" and efforts practically will be limited to securing annual members paying an- nual dues of one dollar or two dollars in case of subscribing or magazine members.
 Division membership Christmas drive committees are to be selected by division managers, the committees to work under general direction of na- tional committee. Each of the 5000 or so Red Cross chapters will appoint committees to cooperate under guid- ance of the respective division com mittees.
 It is felt that people will be think ing of service rather than festivities and that minds generally will be turn ed to battlefields of Europe and es- pecially to our own soldiers and sail ors. It is believed therefore that the country will be in frame of mind at Christmas time to give expression to all its anxiety and hope by showing and renewing evidence of its support 'of the Red Cross.

The Chloride Queen shaft has reached a depth of 40 feet and is en- tering a change of formation that is more than encouraging. The bottom now is well into the quartz and tale that lie alongside the pegmatite which is one of the wall enclosures of the big vein and Superintendent Sam Req believes that he will be able to report the encOuntering of good ore in a few feet unless the vein dips out of the shaft.

Sunday afternoon, November 25 at 1:30 will occur the formal cornerstone laying of the new Baptist church building. This marks another mile stone of progress in the history of Chloride, and a special program of music, songs and speeches has been prepared for the occasion. There will be a song by the children; a large chorus, mixed quartette and solos, with harp and violin accompaniment.
 All the people are most cordially invited to be present on this occasion and to enjoy this Open-air program.

CHLORIDE NEWS
Special correspondence covering the Chloride District to the MOhave Daily Miner by the Chloride Herald, correspondent.

Last week the Middle Golconda shipped to the shelter a carload of rich silver ore from the property in Todd Basin. The lower tunnel has been run into the ore-bearing ground in which the silver values have been found. Superintendent Bell has been driving ahead on the ore body and now has a large tonnage of the rich ore opened up. For the present the work is being confined almost exclusively to the silver-bearing part of the vein, although splendid values have been developed in the zinc-lead part of the property.
 With large milling plant the Mid dle Golconda would be one of the larc est shippers in the district, there being many thousands of tons of high grade milling ore in the dumps and in the mine stopes. The property has been developed to a wonderful extent with the amount of money expended.

The Merrimac resumed sinking last Monday with three shifts. This work will continue necessarily until it reaches the 160-foot point, where the vein will be explored. Col. J. c. Ran kin is well pleased with the outlook for the future concerning the Merri- mac and plans to open it up to the producing point at as early a date as possibly consistent with good min ing.

"The war was begun by the military masters of Ger many who proved to be the masters of Austria Hungary These men have never regarded nations as peoples men, women and children of like blood and frame as them selves for whom governments existed and in whom gov ernments had their life They have regarded them mere y as seeabe organizations which they could by force or intrigue bend or corrupt to their own purpose They have regarded the smaller States in particular and the peoples who could be overwhelmed by force as their nat ural tools and instruments of domination Their purpose has long been avowed.
