THE WEATHER.

Thunder storms and local showers
are predicted for to-day and tonight
by the Weather Bureau. A wave OF
hot temperature is being pushed for
ward cool wave coming down
from the Northwest. In this vicin-
ity the mercury rapidly assembled in
the tube until the high mark of go
degrees was recorded in some places
Wednesday, and on Thursday the
same ratio was maintained, varying
but slightly.
The warm sunshine is working
wonders for the crops and garden
stuff and vegetables and all kinds of
crops are literally smiling their
thanks for the needed warmth. A
few warm showers will complete the
work, and the earth will bloom with
food products.
The weather man won out yester-
day afternoon when a heavy rainfall
descended, accompanied by vivid
display of electricity and thunder.

The nations contributions to the
Red Cross in response to the call for
a 100000 war fund were esti-
mated at s114, 100000 Tuesday nigh.
by Henry p Dawson, chairman OF
the Red Cross war council.
This figure assumes" said Mr..
Dawson, that stockholders in COM
panies which have declared special
dividends amounting to some $780,
100000 will turn their dividends
over to the Red Cross"
The policy of the Red Cross in ex.
pending its big sum, Mr.. Dawson
said in a statement thanking the
millions of contributors, will be to
conduct all our work with the ut
most publicity and to take the public
as completely as possible into our
confidence" Primarily the fund will
be devoted to needs of American sol.
diers and sailors, and secondarily to
relief work among the Allies.
DR.. Frank Billing, of Chicago, will
head the Red Cross commission OF
more than twenty experts to be sent
to Russia to study needs there, Mr.
Dawson announced.

WOMEN TO HELP.
Earnest Appeal to Them For Aid in
Recruiting United States
Army.

An earnest appeal to women to
assist in recruiting for the United
States army this k-designated
by President Wilson as Recruiting
Week" in an effort to fill the ranks
of the regular army before June 80
was voiced at the Lexington army
recruiting station, which has charge
of army recruits in sixty-six counties
of Eastern and Central Kentucky.
Recruiting Week" opened Mon
day morning. Seventy thousand
men are needed by the army and
must be enlisted before next Sum
day.
Women in other cities of the coun-
try have been of great assistance in
securing recruits and it is their work
in other cities that the army re-
cruiting officers expect to duplicate
here.
Secretary of War Baker has issued
to the newspapers throughout the
recruiting stations, an urgent appeal
for assistance in filling the ranks.
Volunteers will serve only for the
duration of the war.
His telegram follows:
ITO the Editors of All Newspapers
President Wilson has by procla-
nation fixed the week beginning to
day, June 25, as Recruiting Week
for the regular army. The army
needs and expects to obtain during
the week 10000 men to I'LL every
regiment to war strength. The men
cannot be obtained, however, without
the heartiest cooperation of the
American press. / am relying conf
IDENTIFY upon the patriotism of the
press in this campaign and know that
the newspapers will cooperate fully
with the recruiting service through
out the week to make 'Recruitinfi
Week another splendid demonstra-
tion of the spirit of the country
NEWTON d. BAKER,
Secretary of War"
1t was announced at the Licking
ton recruiting station that the Office
would be open from s a. m. to IL
p. m. daily, and that a bell on the
front door can be used at any other
hours to obtain access and examina-
ton for enlistment in the army. Two
members of the recruiting force are
on duty at the Office throughout the
night
That the War Department is pre-
pairing for an energetic recruiting
campaign this week is evidenced by
the consignment to the station of
nine crates of calendars, weighing
1908 pounds. The calendars are to
be used in advertising.
