Report Below, Which is Still
Incomplete.

/ beg to submit the following in
complete report of collections and
pledges for the Army and Navy Y.
NJ. C. A. work in Winneshiek county
While the reports are not all in,
there are only about fifteen to twenty
men to hear from, who have been
delayed in their work for one rea-
son or another. There will also be a
considerable addition to the fund
coming from an auction sale to be
held at Fort Atkinson on next Satur-
day, and we have not taken into ac-
count the proceeds expected from the
collection of aid gold and silver by
the young people of the Congrega-
tional church of Decorah, which has
been boxed up and will be shipped
directly. 1t will possibly be several
weeks before l will be able to close
up the books on this campaign, as 1t
seems to be one of those things to
which there Is no end. There are un-
doubtedly number Of men and wo-
men who have assisted either direct
ly or indirectly in making additions
to this fund, whose names do not
appear as the regular solicitors, and
to them all we are greatly indebted
and wish to express our apprecia-
tion. The report, up to date, follows
