RED CROSS DRIVE
MEETS WITH SUCCESS
From the Mosier Bulletin

The following figures show how the

donations, for the Red Cross:

Collected in Children's contest
Ferdinand Strauss, $39.O3; Arts
Cole, $3.50; Frances Weller, 1926
l.. and A. Joy, $500; Roger Chown,

| NJ. A. Mayer, (25 per cent of totaD,
$207.57.
Receipts at Lawn Carnival, $l39. .05.
Grand Total, 81, l76.9 80
Included in the $500 individual sub.
scriptions is the amount subscribed the
evening of June 23rd at Mayerdale,
which amounted to $500.
With total of 500, 006 80 subscribed
by Sherman and Wasco counties when
the allotment was only $4,000, the
citizens have responded nobly in the
big Red Cross drive, and Mosier may
well be proud of the amount raised,
which is greatly in excess of all ex-
pectations.
To Mark A. Mayer considerable
credit is due for the success of the
local Red Cross drive by his generous
donation of cash, the use of his auto
mobile in soliciting funds, and the use
of his house and grounds for a carni-
val.
With big red cross containing 60
globes as a centerpiece on the flag
pole about 25 feet high, red white and
blue lights were strung across the
| Mayerdale lawn. Booths, with carni-
val style, containing ice cream, can
dies, coffee, wieners, toys. lemonade
and so forth kept the crowd moving.
Jitney dances were held on the porch
and singing heard in the house.
F. A. Shogren took flash light pic
turs of the crowd of over 800 people
present and is doing the work at actual
cost to him. Pictures may be procured
at the Mosier Valley Bank. The flash
light pictures are meritorious and look
like they were taken by sunlight.
A stirring talk was made to local
citizens by Edward c. Pease, campaign
manager of the Wasco County Red
Cross financial campaign, who with
Geo. c. Blakeley, Mr.. and Mrs. F. L.
Houghton, Mr.. and Mrs. R. E. Will
liams and their daughters and Judd S.
Fish, had motored over from The
Dalles. They were accompanied by
Mr.. and Mrs. H. S. Wilson, of Port
land, who were first to answer the
appeal made by Mr.. Pease by SUBJ
scribing Sl00.
The generosity of the Pacific Power
& Light company in donating the use
of wire, lights and services of their
men to put the same in position and
then take them away is greatly appre-
ciated.
Local citizens also helped the good
cause by converting their automobiles
into jitneys, and turning the profits
into the Red Cross fund.
Altogether everyone assisted and all
share in the glory in this great human
itarian cause.
