LOCAL RED CROSS CHAP.
TER SENDS GARMENTS


The local Red Cross chapter sent
off last week 400 garments to head
quarters for the soldier boys. The
ladies have been sewing and sew
ing. In fact a group is at work
all the while doing their bit for the
boys who have donned their coun-
try's uniform. Much credit is due
the ladies of the entire town and
county, but too much can not be
said in praise of Miss Bessie Young
who has laid aside her personal af-
fairs and is devoting her whole time
to this great cause.
The Chapter also sent off on last
Saturday its pro rata share of
Christmas packages to the soldier
boys in France. The good ladies
tried to select gifts that would prove
useful to the boys and they were
wrapped carefully and made as at
tractive as possible under the di-
rection of Mrs. VIM. c. Mclean, who
deserves no inconsiderable credit for
neer splendid work along this line.

ITEMS ABOUT THE
RED CROSS WORK.

me campaign nov under way for
the securing of full and final re-
ports on the results of the War
Drive for Red Cross Fund in the
Hulf Division, consisting of the
states of Alabama, Louisiana, and
Mississippi. is of live interest to Red
Cross Chapters throughout the Di-
vision. The Chapters are interest
ed in two phases, one financial, one
membership. In many communities
the people were told that rs per
cent of the gross sum raised would
be awarded to the Chapters repre-
scnting the community, SO that the
chapters might use the fund for the
purchasing of materials with which
to make things for the soldiers.
Many of these communities were
also advised that subscribers to the
fund in sums of one dollar or more
would be entitled to membership in
the Red Cross.
A great number of Red Cross or
carnations have used all of their
other funds in making up supplies
and have been seeking to secure f.
nancial assistance which might en-
able them to continue the work.
1t has been found a difficult mat
ter to straighten out all of these
cases by means of correspondence
with Washington and the Bureau of
Development of the Gulf Division
has been called into service, so that
the information might be collected
at first hand, properly prepared, and
all adjustments quickly made.
All chapters or other Red Cross
nizations are requested to APP
ply to Mr.. W. j. Leppert, Washing
ton Representative of the Red
Cross War Fund, at New Orleans,
Mr.. Leppert will send to all inquir-
les a form, which, if properly filled
out, will receive speedy attention,
and permit of such quick adjustment
as to clear up all doubt respecting
membership matters, and enable the
chapters Immediately to get the
funds to which they may be right
fully entitled.

WAR CAMP RECREATION FUND.

Mr.. George p. Money of Gulf
port was in Grenada on Wednesday
evening of last week and made a
talk to a small audience in the di-
rectors' rooms of the Grenada Bank
in the interest of the war communi-
ty recreation fund. The address was
listened to with much interest. Mr..
Money arrived in Grenada on the
late afternoon train and his COM
ing was not known in advance, 9th
erwisc there would have been a larg-
er audience out to greet him. The
work he is engaged in by commission
of the war and navy departments is
Only another evidence of the gov
ernment's determination to make the
soldier boys comfortable, happy and
as contented as it is possible for
them to be and to see that nothing
is left undonc that is needed for
thcir comfort. health and morals.

HON. T. U. SISSON MAKES
SPEECH IN GRENADA
cry criticism of the war, or the 'meth-

cry criticism of the war, or the meth
DDS Of raising an army, was not only
highly pleasing to the Kaiser but
made war problems more difficult
and prolonged the war, thereby null
tiplying the number of those who
must shed their blood on the bat
tie fields. Mr.. Sisson said that time
for talk had past, that it was every
mans and every woman's duty now
to prepare for the struggle which
had been forced on this country.
Mr.. Sisson told something of war
appropriations and the great amount
of money needed to make shot and
shells and to maintain an army on
the battle lines. He said that Secre-
tary Daniels was making one of the
greatest secretaries that the Navy
aver had and left the audience un-
der no doubt that he thought the
Navy was covering itself with glory
in this terrible struggle. AS to why
the war came, God in His Provi-
dence, Mr.. Sisson said, only knew.
but he said that he believed that
when it was over and an account
ing was had. it would be found that
the dross had been sifted from the
gold and that all humanity would
have a higher conception of their
duty to God and what one people
owe another. He said that the wal
would be used, he believed, by the
Almighty to put humanity upon high
err heights and to give the world a
clearer vision of that life and sacri-
made upon Calvary's brow.
Mr.. Sisson spoke for over two
hours and held the attention of his
audience throughout. He was fire.
quently interrupted with applause
and his audience showed its thor
,ugh sympathy with and approval of

STUDENTS OF UNIVERSITY
SEND OUT LETTER

l know that you and the people of
my county are vitality interested in
the University of Mississippi this
year and would like to know what we
! are doing. For this reason l am
writing this that it may be published
in your paper.
This is the best year that the Uni
versity has had in some time. 1t is
true that we have a smaller attend
ance than usual, but the work that
has resulted up to this time is TIE
best that has been done in years.
Such a thing as whiskcy has not
been noticed this year, and j. can be
said with truth that hazing is to be
a thing of the past at the Univer-
sity. Not a single man has had to
be disciplined by the authorities this
session for hazing.
We have been informed by the
chancellor that fewer warning cards
about poor work have been sent out
this year than ever before. 1t seems
that all the students realize that this
is no time for slackers. A student
organization has been perfected in
order that the student-body may work
as a unit. As a r"s'lt Of this or
ganization a picture show has been
established on the campus. This is
of great benefit to every student for
it enables n to walk across the cam
pus and see a really frst-class show
for about half what it would cost
to see n elsewhere, for every one
at a show up town will naturally stop
at some store and spend money that
he has not the opportunity of spend
ing when he remains on the campus.
The students save the time that it
takes to walk from the University
to town and back which is a great
In addition to this, the
shows are of an educational value,
and are Of better morals than is !
shown at public theatres.
Therefore, the show is a good saw
ng of both time and money, and
a student to see a good show
'hree times a week, and be out and
'eady to start on his next days work
~ eight o'clock that evening.
In addition to this both the An
'ual and The Mississippian are pub
shed comparatively, at a great saw
to the student-body. But this is
lot all that we have done. The VI
c. A. has needed the call of the
Nation and the University students
md faculty have contributed about
to the war work of this
organization. All arc alive to the
ituation at "Ole Miss" and are all
working in unity. For this reason
believe that this year at the Uni
is to be the greatest in it's
No suggestion has come from anv
# the University authorities for writ
ng this letter. We students want
he people to know that we are TAX
ng advantage of the great oppor-
unities afforded by this State Insti-
.ution.
wish to thank you for the priv
lege of having this printed in my
paper. and of letting the peo-
pie of my County know what the
University is doing this year.
