Grand Total for Red Cross
Three hundred and fifty eight and d
49 100 (sS5S. 49) of this is yet uncollect-
ed but is good and will be collected
shortly.
The IS, O79. % collected has been de-
posted to the credit of the Red Cross
War Fund, William G. McAdoo, Treas
urer, in the local banks as follows:
Peoples Bank $71726
Merchants & Farmers Bank 2.O1s.5O
Exchange Bank 2,342. So
Total SIS, O79. .29
The above figures do not include the
$740. 46 raised for the benefit of the
local Red Cross Chapter at the 4th of
July celebration. &
i While the campaign had q few disap-
pointing features, In the manifest
slackery of some who gave nothing or
too little, for the most part the res
ponse to our appeal by the public gene
rally and especially by those to whom
it was brougha home by special ex-
planation, was generous.
The campaign on the whole was in
spring and stimulating.
Where so many gave so literally both
of money and of service, it might seem
invidious to make special mention of
any. | cannot but feel, though, that
particular recognition is due to some
whose services were specially valuable
in the campaign. The proprietors of
the Amuzu and Olympic theatres assist
ed not only by considerable contribu-
tions of money but also by advertising
the campaign on their screens and by
permitting five minute talks in their
theatres by one lady and one gentle
man each night for about ten nights.
The Natchitoches Enterprise and
Times gave large. amounts of valuable
space in their columns without charge.
The Sub Committee, composed of
Judge w. T. Cunningham, as Chair
man, and Mr.. V. L. Roy and Mr.. A. w.
Watson, as members, entered into the
campaign with extraordinary zeal and
enthusiasm, devoting several entire
days to the work and securing almost
one half of the total subscriptions Sc
cured by the Committee of sixteen.
Yours Truly,
M. H. CARVER,
Chairman Citizens Committee.

would not have been at liberty to use it
