WASHINGTON. June p. The

ed at STA. 100000 Tuesday night by
Henry P. Dawson, chairman OF the

This figure assumes" said Mr.
Dawson. that stockholders in com
panies which have declared special
dividends amounting 10 some $2O,-
100000. will turn their dividends
over 10 the Red Cross"
The policy OF the Red Cross in ex-
pending this big sum. Mr.. Dawson
said IN a statement thanking the
millions OF contributors. will be Ito
conduct all our work with the ut
most publicity, and TO take the pub
lie as completely as possible into
our confidence" Primarily the fund
will be devoted TO needs of Ameri-

DR.. Frank Billing Of Chicago will

Russia TO study needs there. Mr..
Dawson announced His statement
follows:
Local chapters Of the Red Cross
are entitled 10 retain for their own
work 25 percent OF the total from
the collection, but il is very evident
that the national Red Cross will
have a generous fund with which 10
begin its tremendous tasks.
Results Gratifying.
The result which has been
achieved is indeed gratifying. Never
before in the history OF the world
was such a fund for the relief of
human suffering raised by voluntary
subscription in so brief a period
This result was made possible by
surprisingly generous contributions
| I'm many communities. The most in
spring. indeed the most extraordi-
/ nary feature of the campaign has
been the number of contributors. as
well as their wide geographical dis
| tribution. Many millions Of our
| people. representing every part OF
the country, have given and worked
\ to induce others TO give.
Nothing which has happened
before shows so clearly as this cam
paign that the great heart of the
American people is in this struggle
with determination that our owl
men shall be cared for, that every
thing that can be done shall be done
TO hearten and 10 aid the suffering
peoples among our allies. indeed
that nothing shall be left undone to
win this war"

." And better one than the Klocke's,
tool"
ct won't be SO bad" unused Mr..
Perkins. Guess my family can ride
IN an auto as well as Klocke's. And it
won't cost me a cent, either, that's
the beauty of the whole thing; it was
Wllder's invitation and l didn't even
have to say that l was thinking of
buying car"
Sunday came, and so did Wilder;
IN a huge, putting, touring car. Mrs.
Perkins swept out of the house in a
stunning auto veil, carrying a long
wrap and automobile coat, and sprang
magnIficently into the machine Her
husband followed with the three little
Perkinses.
It was wonderful ridei They met
everybody they knew, and Mrs. Per-
kIns bowed to her Boulevard friends
with slight condescension of the
motorlst. But it was not until they
were on their way home that the
full triumph of the day was realized.
They met the Klocke family, whose
mouths simultaneously opened In amaze
ment as the Perkinses passed.
What a dinky little machine
kiocke's Is, said Mrs. Perkins.
The following day, Wilder sent the
same machine around to take Mr.
Perkins down to the office His wife
accompanied him and, after dropping
Perkins, made a tour of the shopping
district and stopped at every possible
store, although she did not purchase
anything
Before that week was over nearly
every auto dealer IN town had noticed
that Wilder was trying to sell new
customer, and every day different
makes of machines were placed at the
disposal of the willing Perkins and his
more-than-willing wife
In fact. no one ever entered into the
spirit of a real "joy-rider" with more
enthusiasm than did Mrs. Perkins
Perkins, too, was intoxicated with
the. experience. He patronized the
various chaffeurs who were sent around
to him, and every night he deliberated
IN his office for ten minutes trying to
decide In which of the machines that
The Hays free press. [volume] (Hays, Kan.) 1908-1924, 1917-07-14

stood by the curb he should ride
home.
For three weeks this state of affairs
continued. Several auto statesmen were
disguised by Perkins persistency in
not making a choice, and departed
forcing their cars upon him. Among
these was Wilder, who succeeded In
getting the prospective customer to
ride IN his machine every day; and
his car, too, was the preference of Mrs.
Perkins-being of the same make as
Klocke's- only larger.
1t was this bulldog tenacity In Wilder
which caused the neighbors to believe
that Perkins had really bought
has pay from the recognized owner.
Indeed, it had all come about so
easily that Perkins almost expected
raise in salary in recognition of his
prominence in the motor world
Let's take the Klockes out riding
IN Wilder's machine" Mrs Perkins
suggested one day; "they think it's
ours, and they know it's better than
their own. 1t viii be such fun. You
know, they just can't refuse, for We
have so often accepted invitations to
ride in their car" The madness was
still on Perkins and he greeted the
idea with enthusiasm Consequently,
the Klockes were invited, and accepted;
and Wilder was called UP and requested
to send his machine and chauffeur
around the next day to take out a
small party.
Perkins was rubbing his hands joy
ously when the car drove up the
following morning. ooh, you're a
new man, are your" he asked the
chauffeur, In an indulgent voice.
yes, just started this mornin' +"
vouchsafed the driver, whose goggles
and huge features gave him the odd
appearance of 4 deep-sea diver.
Mrs. Perkins swept down the walk
with her habitual elegance, and settling

not take the corners too fast, I am so
nervous with a new driver. l wish
John were driving the car, as usual.
He was very careful"
III be careful, num-" growled the
new man.
Mrs. Klocke had dressed up for the
occasion, and the neighborly compe-
tition was well supported on both
sides Both she and her husband
seemed uneasy from the very start:
whether it was that the Perkins,
machine was superior to theirs, or
that they didn't like the chauffeur.
one could not tell
They followed the Boulevard and
sped along an hour, until they chueged
out into the exclusive residential dis
trlct, where all interest was centered
on the handsome apartments which
they were passing.
Wonderful places, aren't they?"
unused Perkins :" I haven't been inside
any OF the very newest ones; they say
that the latest wrinkle Is to have
elevators IN the rear for automobiles,
to take them up to the various floors.''
Oh, yes, | have seen them" re-
marked hlocke, with glance at
the chauffeur, who seemed to take
an unwarranted interest in the con-
versation.
"Oh, yes, re have seen Them"
echoed his wife
Would you ike to see 'em, sir?''
the driver questioned Perkins
Why, yes. my good man, 1 said
would replied Perkins, haughtily;
and his wife craned her neck to have q
look at the impertinent chauffeur.

these here apartments, an he told
me this mornIn', sir, could take

broke out Mrs. Klocke, quite rudely.
No, they're very tame" agreed
Well, of course, we won't see the
auto elevators then, If you people
don't want to, but / should really
Ike very much to see them myself
Ventured Mrs Perkins, In a cutting
ooh, if you really want to see them
we shall be only too willing to go with

hardly worth looking at offered Mr..
We're right in front of Mr.. WiIder's
apartment now, sir; shall I take the

Why, yes" decided the patron
izing Perkins, now that we are right
here We might as well 90 IN as not
So, although Mrs. Kloeke had an
ugly look In her eyes when she glared
at her uneasy husband, they went IN
at Wilder's drive The machine was
steered straight onto the platform.
and the chauffeur started the eIeva-
tor, which, with slow jerks, assembled
until It reached the fourth floor. Here
the chauffeur stopped It and, opening
the door, drove the machine into a
garage Stepping back, he released
the elevator and sent it down.
What=what are you doing that
for, my good man? We Just wanted
to ride up, We don't care to stay here
Perkins informed him
With q dextrous motion, the chauf-
feur whipped off his goggles, pushed
back his cap, tugged at his mustaches
a moment, pulled them off. and faced
the astonished little group ID the
