Finance Literally

Commenting today on the campaign of the American Red Cross to raise S100 ,O0O, ,0O0 to carry on it's war ac tivities, Mrs. P. J. Malone, said:
 "The big necessity of the present is to finance the Red Cross so H. berally as to give it the chance to step into the gap and do grand work of upbuilding and inspiring our allies while our soldiers are being mobilized and trained.
 And doing this we are not mere ly rendering moral encouragement but actual physical help to the fight ing armies of France. We are tax ing from the shoulders of an over burdened nation the task of helping these unfortunates. Thus we are increasing the man power of France at the very time when this counts most. We plan to take these helpless thousands back from the fringes ot the armies and set them up in life so they can help themselves.
 Not a Charity
 This is not a charity Don't let anybody get that idea for moment It is debt paying. We owe all that and vastly more to the France that has poured our her blood for us. Il | is the least we can do while our ar mics of fighting men are getting ready to serve in the trenches.
 1 The Russian Problem
 | trap,opdouc RucSian DrOhipn confronts the Red Cross. We have debt to pay to Russia as well as to France. The situation as regards amelioration of suffering on the long Russian battle line is deplorable Or l the whole 1000 miles of front there France, on a front of 400 miles, there are 63000 ambulances. Succor mus be rushed to Russia. There are prob lens of encouragement and of mater ial aid confronting us there as greaI in their away as await us in France We must be up and doing o us, every single American. Oul thought is to go to Russia with as much relief as we can assemble. The heartening problem is very pressing there, as the whole country mus understand by this time, It is es pecially necessary now that Russia is in the throes of revolutionary af termath I am firmly convinced tha the Russian democracy can be relied on to keep it's head, to maintain what it has snatched from autocracy

MARION COUNTY
GET-TOGETHER MEETING

The farmers of Marion county had
an interesting meeting and picnic in
the Kendig grove, near Sparr. This
is the second of a series of meetings
that the county commissioners and
county agent are encouraging and
helping to promote agriculture and
live stock interests in the county
There is larger acreage of cotton
than usual, so they are trying to over
come the labor difficulty Mr.. Nathan
Mayo of Summerfeld, is building a
sweet potato storage house, and there
is considerable discussion as to pea
nut oil mills, as Marion county is one
of the best peanut growing counties
in the state, and generally the crops
are excellent throughout the state,
and this promises to be banner year
for the farmers.
The bankers of the county are espe-
cially interested in good cattle and
will lend money to buy cattle to any
good responsible farmer. A year ago
the bankers financed an important
deal for Hampshire sows, upward of
100 pure Hampshire hogs were bought
through the county agent. These
sows now have their second litters,
and with ten or more pigs, so there
are a great many more pure bred
hogs in Marion county than hereto
fore. County Demonstration Agent
Blackjack is a live wire and pushes
every phase of his work with untiring
energy. He hopes to have several
other similar meetings in the near fu-
ture. The next one is to be held at
Blitchton, on DR.. Blitch's farm. This
section of Marion county, while some
what isolated, is one of the best farm
ing sections in this state, and has
some of the best farmers. A good at
tendance is expected, and the plans
and program will be announced later
for the meeting.
At the picnic Thursday addresses
were made by the following: R. W.
Blackjack, county agent; A. P.
Spencer, of Gainesville; Prof. J. H.
Brinson, Ocala; W. M. Gist, McIn-
tosh. Other speakers made short
talks. Upward of 500 people were
present. DR.. J. F. Chapman, tick
eradication specialist, spoke on tick
eradication. A. P. Spencer,
Asst. Director Extension Division.

SHELTERS FOR
| THE SOLDIERS
Underground Dwellings in Which
Many Americans May
Pass Next Winter
(Associated Pressl

N~ASoNSA"SSN 1OSOy
French Front, Correspondence).- -
Dozens of divisions of the French
army now sleep underground in COM
parative comfort, even in the front
lines when the Germans are hurting
tens of thousands of shells on the
ground above them. thanks to the
work of the companies of excavators
formed since the beginning of the
war. The men chosen to construct
these shelters, which have preserved
so many thousands of lives, are SOL
diers whose age varies between As
and so and who would have been un-
fit to take part in the active opera
tions of modern battles, where quick
ness of movement and litheness of
limb are absolute necessities. No
matter what the nature of the soil,
whether hard rock. quick-sand, chalk
or marshy land, these veterans have
overcome all the difficulties and have
succeeded in constructing formidable
bomb-proof shelters all along the
line of the front from the North Sea
to the Swiss frontier until at the
present moment any fighting unit ar
irving at almost any part of the line
finds a habitable dug-out awaiting it.
The correspondent of the Associat-
ed Press has seen and been inside
dozens of these subterraneon cities
for such they may be termed-at
many places, and, even where all the
natural conditions are difficult, has
found the shelters commodious, we'll
drained, and each man lodged in it is
provided with a simple bed consisting
Of wire-netting foundation support
ed by wooden uprights. On this the
soldier lays his regulation bundle OF
straw and, covering himself with his
army blanket and greatcoat, can SLEEP
with freedom from anxiety as to any
bombardment in progress outside
The shelters are provided generally
with electric light or acetylene lamps
sanitary conveniences, and, in some
cases, with complete shower baths.
First aid posts and dressing sta.
tions with all modern surgical appli.
ances are also to hand, so that the
surgeon attached to the unit may at.
tend Immediately to any wounded
men brought in from the nearby
battlefield.
So we'll are the shelters protected
from the view of the enemy that, al
though in many instances the under
ground lodging covers an area Of
5000 square yards, not once in the
course of the past year has one Of
them been destroyed by the enemy
fire. They have many exits, the plar
being to provide one for each section
or quarter section, so that in case on'
exit should be hit and blocked, the
men inside may escape through an
other opening.

ETERNAL RACE QUESTION
IS UP AGAIN
SHALL NEGRO TROOPS, OR SHALL THEY NOT, Be
TRAINED IN THE SOUTH
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Aug. Ex-Governor
Manning of South Carolina, accom-
panied by South Carolina senators
and congressman, today protested to
the war department. against training
negro soldiers in South Carolina, par
ticularly Porto Ricans. Governor
Manning suggested that trops from
Porto Rico be trained in Cuba.
Other Southern senators said they
felt confident the. training of negro
troops could be conducted without
friction. Some sympathized with the
South Carolinans while others believ-
ed the South was the best place to
train negroes.
