Miss Ada Hobble Gets Letter of
Thanks from War Council.

In appreciation Of the prompt
raising of the Red Cross emergency
fund in this county, Miss Ada Hob
BILE, former president of the society
received the following letter from H.
p. Davidson, secretary of the Red
Cross War Council.
Washington, D. G..
Miss Ada Hobble,
Liberal, Kan.
Dear Miss Hobble:
At the close Of the wonderfully
successful campaign for the Red
Cross War Fund I intended, in be-
half of the War Council, to send you
and your associates, telegram of
thanks and congratulation for your
splendidly effective work. On re-
Election, however, decided in view
of the nation wide extent of our or
ganization that it would be more &C.
onomical, and equally satisfactory,
to write to you instead of telegraph
ing.
We of the War Council are deeply
grateful to you, to your colleagues,
to the devoted men and women of
local Red Cross Chapters and Auxil-
iaries, and to every element and in
dividual in your community who aid
ed by service and contribution.
There is no method by which we
can reach the legion of individuals,
organizations, churches, newspapers,
societies, banks, companies and firms
whose united effort has provided this
great fund for humanity, and if
through your press and by other
means you can make public express
sion of our gratitude we shall deep
ly appreciate the courtesy. Their
joint accomplishment has stirred the
pride of every American.
wish to add my personal thanks
to you, and through you, to all who
contributed to the splendid result.
Very sincerely yours.
H. P. DAVIDSON,
Chr, Red Cross War Council.
