 MAR DESCRIPTION
 |s RAISING MONEY

This contribution business is getting
 to be hell!" said highly esteemed citi- zen the other day after having done
 his bit two or three times. He did not
 mean to be profane about it but only
 wanted to give his thoughts emphatic expression.
 He was right, nearer right than he
 thought when he spoke War is hell and
 from now on this nation is in war heart
 breaking blood spilling war and all
 constructive, ameliorating relief from
 it's bloody horrors must come through
 the Red Cross organization, maintainec
 solely by contributions.
 This week is to witness nation-wid campaign to raise Red Cross war fund
 of hundred million dollars for this
 purpose. Henceforth until the peace dove wings it's way over battle torn Eu-
 rope where the best blood of America will crimson the trodden grass. dona-
 tions will mean to the home folks hell
 and repeat" both literally and figur- atively, to use another graphic street expression. It is the only way in which three-fourths of the people of the na- tOn can have direct participation in the conflict and this service will be just as direct as that of the man who floats
 ship or moulds a bullet
 The same love of human liberty ana the same law of self preservation that
 drafted your son or brother for the fir ing line, conscripts your dollars for their protection. Giving in this cause Go
 the measure of your ability is neither charity nor philanthropy but an obliga ton of citiZenship-your part in na tional preparedness.
 Now who will be the first to subscribe
 T1 graph and telephone are at your dis posal and if you act promptly even the mails may not be too slow. If you can not be first, seize the honor of second or third place. Strain point if necessary.
 There is potential power in prompt ac-
 ton and the psychology of giving adds value to the early contribution and eases the burden for those who come later.
 The jurisdiction of the Phoenix chap ter extends from Winkleman to Parker and from Maricopa to Wickenburg with numerous local branches in populous centers. It's estimated duty is S50000. Pay to the home branch or send direct to Phoenix s circumstances make con- venient. Remember, a soldier saved to the firing line is worth five new re- cruits Your contribution, even though small, may save a life. Even q cotton bandage paid for NOW, and ready when
 needed, may win a battle or rob a grave of victory.

and things looked bright -.
Last Gasp ..-... .
Helfrich, who made a great record
last year with the Harrisburg club,
was given chance TO perform in the
eighth, and retired the side in order.
Luck zee got in hot water in the
first OF the ninth, and after Pinelli had
singled and Marshall received trans.
portation to first Hoon HI trotted out
to the firing line. Bigbee was retired
on weak roller, and Willie hit long
fly to En- Sue which scored Pinelli
Hollocher brought the crowd to its
feet when he slammed the ball hard
to left. but Yen Chin raced over and
made a pretty play for the last out,
and the Chinese players adjourned to
the Cafe Canton. where they proceed
ed to partake of some more saimin.
Portland started the run making in
the third inning, when Pinelli was
safe when Ayau made a poor throw
to All Lee. Fisher hit safely and
Pinelli went to third and scored on a
wild pitch. Schatzlein -wagged
and Fisher scored wnen Ayau juggled
a hard hit ball. Rodgers then hit one
to Ayau, who ended the agony by
starting a double play to All Lee.
Luck Hits One
In the fifth Luck zee hit one of
Scnatzlein's growers for single, and
went to second when Willie fumbled.
En- Sue hunted, and beat it out, and
Luck zee scored on a wild heave by
the Portland southpaw. This was
all the run making until the terrible
seventh, when the Chinese players
used excellent headwork by laying
them down to the pitcher.
Helfrich looked good during his
stay on the mound, but did not show
anything but slow ball with a hook.
He locks like an experienced HEAVIER.
and furthermore knows how to send
them over.
The game was exciting throughout,
and il is unfortunate that the stand
was not packed. as the games between
the Portland team and the locals is
bringing out some good baseball. The
climate here is idead for training, but
larger crowds would help a heap in
having the Beavers come back in 1918.
