ENGINEERS GIVEN
R0TAR|AN SHOES
Shoes Collected for BeIglanS
ON Feet of Local Soldiers.

Believing that shoes donated for the
barefoot Belgans could find no more
fitting service than on the feet OF
Uncle Sans own bows whose soles have
worn thin while awaiting the arrival
of army equipment, Paul Cottrell, as
sistsnt secretary of the Chamber Of
Commerce, took matters in his own
hands Sunday.
Engineers QUILTED.
He invited members OF Company D,
engineers, national guard Of Oklahoma
20 visit the Chamber Of Commerce and
outfit themselves from the enormous
heap OF footwear Obtained in a recent
campaign conducted by the Rotary
club. There were hundreds Of pairs OF
shoes awaiting shipment TO the war
torn lands while in the local arfnory
were men who had left their homes ex-
pecting to be outfltted on mobilization
here last Monday
Better Uncle Sans men now than
the Belgans later" thought Mr.. Cot
trell, and he proceeded to get the men
and the shoes together. About fifteen
men availed themselves OF the privilege
No Protest Expected.
81 really had no right to give away
what the Rotarians had gathered but
The need was so pressing that ! acted
before consulting the club officials.
However, they are all good fellows and
am sure will be glad OF the oppor-
tunity TO serve the engineers, even in
this small way" said NJ Cottrell.
There are j65 men quattered at the
