Regimental Fund for Drafted Men
Plans are afoot to raise a regi-
mental fund for the 352nd Regiment
of the National Army-the regiment
of which the boys from Stevens coun-
ty at Camp Dodge are now members.
Phillip Johnson wrote to G. R.
Wollthan about the matter and the
major Of the regiment wrote to May
or Jones, and both have turned their
! letters over to Captain p L. SpoOner
of the Home Guards, and he has TAX
en- the matter up and written for
further details. The tentative plan
is raise $40 for each man in the regi-
ment from the counties from which
the men are recruited. If all 60 men
from this county are placed in the
352nd, then the quota for this coun-
ty will be 5000.
National guard regiments all have
regimentaI funds and the regiments
of the National Army need these
funds also. The funds are used for
the purchase of athletic supplies and
extras Of one kind and another not
provided by the government. The
fund is sometimes used for extras
for the mess. Whatever it is used
for must be for the benefit of the
whole regiment and the fund is al
ways carefully spent. The Home
Guard will take this matter up and
Captain Spooner will announce more
details shortly.

these handbags must be large affairs
Just az If milady didn't have a half

skirts.
The simplest thing in sports bag
Is one of sports silk to match or con-

good, and will all through the sum-

Either Paisley, beads or appllqued
silk in old Indian, Chinese or Russian
designs arc .the best for .dressy wear.
The qualifications are lnnumerable-

many others. Perhaps beaded molre

bags are made on frames, and many

Increased redness occurs in painful
