ARRANGING CONFERENCE ON
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE

! Mr.. l. d. O'Donnell, Supervisor OF
Irrigation, is arranging an operation
and maintenance conference of Rec
lamation Service employees and Wat
er Users to be held at Boise, Idaho,
on January Is, 16 and IT.
F. G. Hough, Project Manager. and
W. A. simmonds. Water Master, viii
be in attendance from the rruckee.
Carson project.
Mr.. O'Donnell has extended cor
dial invitation to water users of this
and other projects to be present and
participate in the conference at
which there will be discussions OF
numerous important questions af-
feeting irrigation projects and espec-
tally concerning the welfare of the
water users. Mr.. 0'Donnel hopes
that at least one delegate from True
kee-Carson project water users can
be sent, and that such delegate will
prepare a short paper on the subject,
How the Government can Help the
Irrigation Farmer"
II has heretofore been suggest
ed that some representatives of the
water users of this proieal be sent to
Idaho to investigate the workings OF
the irrigation districts that have con.
tracts with the Reclamation Service,
also to observe the drainage works
that have been constructed by the
government under contracts with
these districts. Ii would seem that
this Operation and Maintenance con
ference offers an excellent opportun-
lty 10 have local water user make
this study as we'll rs TO participate
in the conference. both Of which
would be Of benefit TO the people OF
this project.
The expense OF sending a delegate
would be small. probably not more
than 500 or 5, and doubtless II
would be no al lult matter 70 raise
that amount. OF perhaps some OF our
8sll-io.do FARM ra would be willing
10 make the trig at their own ex-
penfe. II has been suggested that
the general board OF water users or
the irrigation district COMMITTEES take
this matter IN hand and endeayor 20
arrange for the attendance ct the
coming conference OF a water users
delegate.

George Wingfeld, en- his
arrival in Fallon yesterday
brought the cheering intelli-
renee that Fallen is at last to
have hotel commensurate
with her growing Importance.
Mr. Wingfeld stated that lie
had recently acquired the lot
opposite the Courthouse and
that in the early spring would
erect thereon an eighty roeul
hotel
The plans for the building
will be prepared by the same
architects who designed the
beautiful Reno National Bank
building, which of itself is
equivalent to saying that it
will be the last word in mod
ern hotel architecture.
In addition the new ho-
tel building will provide quar-
ters for the Churchill County
= Bank. which has outgrown its
present location. The Bank
will occupy the corner and the

NOT HOW
MUCH BUT
HOW WISELY

Captain n. 6. Norton OF the Gary
Red Cross campaign. said today that
even to approach compliance with the
most pressing needs facing the Ameri-
can Red Cross viii require at least
800. 000, 900. at the moment" he
said. the real question is not so much
how much money we need but rather
how much can be spent wisely. and
made effective in the Immediate fu-
ture?
IF each individual American now
contributes his bit there can be no
failure. America will. we feel sure. in
this again demonstrate her ability to
handle big task in a big way That
we may be able to perform this great
task, we shall appeal TO the generosity
and for the hearty cooperation of the
whole American people.
Are the people of this country GO
ing to be content with a Red Cross or
ganization which will take care of
our own army here and abroad? Is
that our mission II 1t Is. then we need
no such campaign. Rather. are we
going to stamp the rest of the work
with patriotism and an appreciation
on the part of 104, 900. 600, 900 Ameri-
can people2 1t remains for each and
all of you to so imbue the rest of the
people in your various and respective
localities that we will respond in a
way that we will electrify the world!
IF, in making a survey OF the obli-
cations and opportunities of our Red
Cross. gloomy picture is drawn. we
must not be discouraged. but rather
rejoice in this undertaking and in the
confidence that we can by our voluntary
action render a service TO our afflict-
ed allies which will for all time be a
source OF pride and satisfaction in a
good deed well done. AS President
Wilson has said: But a small proper

WOMEN'S
WORK IS
NEEDED

A letter has just come from Wash
ington headquarters to the Hammond
Red Cross saying that there is great
need of enormous quantities of hospi-
tai garments, surgical dressings and
other hospital supplies in the hospi-
tails on the war front. Chapters are
urged to send all that IS possible -
the way of hospital garments. surgf-
cal dressings and other hospital sup
plies.
Every moment of time that every
woman in Hammond can give to help
in the making of hospital garments
and other supplies is tremendously
needed. The argument that is not
convenient to come toda~ falls down
before the fact that other Americans
at the absolute sacrifice of personal
convenience and comfort have given
up everything to take the responsible
ity for us at the front of trying to hold
back the war machine against which
we are fighting. A pace has been set
for Hammond in the matter of service
by the originator Of the Red Cross
work in Hammond. No argument of
lack of time can stand in face OF the
example set by Mrs. c. B. Whitney.

house or of her little two-year-old

work Mrs whitney acted as secretary
for the Red Cross auxiliary, before the
chapter was organized in Hammond
and IL is. thanks to her energy and
wise effort in finding out the proper
methods Of procedure. that the chapter
has been able to make the excellene
showing that 1t has thus far in the way
OF supplies and in the raising of funds.
