IDAHO SPRINGS COLO, FRIDAY. MAY H. 1917
Red Cross

An appreciation by the wonder
full Red Cross organization in
Idaho Springs is due Mrs. n.
Weinberger.
Long before war had been de
clared Mrs. Weinberger, who had
been scanning New York papers,
said one day to a social gathering,
"Well, ladies', we'll soon be doing
Red Cross work" The statement
was discredited.
So when war was declared, Mrs.
Weinberger was the logical one
to give of her time to investigate
the work and plans of organizing.
Hence trip to Denver.
Then came the call for few of
the more enthusiastic folks, and Il
tempo rary organization. at which
Mrs. Ida E. Pike was elected tenn
porary chairman, and Mrs. Clara
Samuely, secretary. Their efforts
have been untiring and we'll
directed.
The chair appointed as COM
mittee Mrs. N. Weinberger, chair
man. and Mesdames James Under
hill, S. l.. Burger, T. A. Jones,
and /. G. Stafford, and their work
has been effective.
The result is the formation of a
branch of the Red Cross with a
membership of 125, formed on a
stormy night, record probably
not excelled anywhere.
You who are not members, con.
slider well what real opportunity
the society presents to help in the
war for which the nation is plan.
ming for a possible three years.
Urgent will be the call for an un-
believable amount of money and
materials, the work of the Red
Cross.
Come to the meeting at the city
hall next Monday night, and hand
in your membership, if you have
not already done SO. These are
serious days.

Oh! say, you see by the dawns early light,
What proudly hailed at the twlights last geaming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars ho the perous fight
Der ramparts watched galanty streaming
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro the night that flag still there
Oh! say, does the star-spangled banner yet wave
Der the land of free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimy thro the mist of the deep,
Where the foes naughty host in dread silence reposes
What that which the breeze Ger the towering Steep
AS it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the CLEAN of the mornings first beam
In full glory reflected, shines on the stream.
IT is the star-spangled banner, oh! long may it
Ger the land of the free and the home of the brave
Oh! thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the wars desolaton
Bes with vctry and peace may the Heavnrescued lane
Praise the Pow that hath made and preserved nation
Then conquer we must when our cause is just,
Aud this be our motto, "In God is our trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall

Coming Summer will
Witness Great Activity

Close observers of mining con-
ditions in upper Clear Greek are
very enthusiastic over the outlook
for the coming summer, as they
are fully convinced that a number
of the old mines that were actively
operated before the slump in the
price of silver will again receive
attention from prospective in
vestors and with little develop
ment become large producers.
The present resources of our
mines are being added to very
materially by recent discoveries
that extend over wide area,
proving conclusively the mine
making possibilities of the entire
district, providing the expenditure
of development energy is used
judiciously.

C0mmerc'l Association
Elects New Officers

At an adjourned meeting of the
Idaho Springs Commercial as
sociation the following officers
we're elected for the year: Presi-
dent, E. NJ. Moscript; Vice Pres
dent, w. G.. Arkills; Secretary,
James Underhill; Treasurer, G. 1.
Spessard; and a board of directors
composed of the above officers
together with the following: John
G. Sturdevant, Rolla V. Peecher,
Henry McClelland, D.. J. Donnelly,
Herbert johnson.
It was decided to cooperate with
the city administration and at
tempt to organize the gard e n
movement now in full operation
in Idaho Springs, as il is feared
that good part of the present
enthusiasm may lead to unsatis.
factory results. Many are attempt
ing gardening for the first time,
without proper tools or equipment
and in many cases with somewhat
nebulous ideas of what to grow.
A committee should be appointed
to aid those who are inexperienced,
by providing tools and help of all
kinds, with view to systematic
work and coordinated results.
There is also talk of syndicate
or cooperative association to work
all ground that is available and
not already taken by individuals.
A meeting will be held at the
city hall Saturday evening to
provide ways and means for
cultivating every available piece of
ground in Idaho Springs. Every
person interested is urged to CO.
operate and be present at the
meeting.
The Idaho Springs siftings-news., 1917-05-11

niversary Of that day, 1917, that
Marshall Joffre of France landed
in America to confer for aid for
his poor battle-ridden country.
France is suffering terribly.
After Mr.. Barrett had placed us
in that light, a true American
could no longer feel that it is nn-
just for our boys to go over in to
the trenches to aid people fighting
for liberty, as opposed to a aspread-
ing of the rule of the Kaiser.
He then told of the growth of
of the Red Cross, the society
always ready to volunteer in times
of fire, food, earthquake, storm or
pestilence the world over, as well
as in war.
For everyone eager to do his bit,
joining and supporting this society
may be the main opportunity and
real duty.
Ten thousand of our men are
already in the trenches. They
need our services. But much
more will the many men yet to go
appeal to us for medical aid and
comfortable places to regal n
strength.
In japan are many, many more
members of the order than in our
country where 100000 support the
Red Cross.
One dollar makes you member
of the society. Two dollars en-
titles you also to the magazine.
A life membership may be secured
for $25. A patron member con-
tributes 500. The great society,
while incorporated under the Z. S.
government, with President Will
son as its president, subsists en-
tirely upon contributed sums.
Becoming a member does not
obligate one to service of any sort,
but gives chance to direct one s
efforts along an effective and safe
line.
At the close of the address, W..
L. Bush moved to establish a
branch of the Red Cross society
in Idaho Springs, which motion
carried unanimously.
After membership blanks had
been passed, Mr.. Moscript ap-
pointed as committee on per-
manent organization, Messrs. J..
W. B. Smith, o. N. Marihugh,
G. L. Spessard, B. A. Holley, w.
L. Bush.
The report submitted by Mr..
Smith as chairman, recommended
the election of Mrs. Ida E. Pike
as permanent chairman; Mrs. Nell
Gleason and Mrs. F. 81. Don.
ithorne as first and second vice
chairmen respectively; Mrs. Clara
Samuely, secretary; and K. v.
Peecher treasurer.
A motion was made and un-
