Important Happenings and Local
Notes from the County Seat.


That the work of the Y. M. C. A.
for our soldiers is appreciated by
Newport people is evidenced by the
enthusiasm that was awakened by
Mr.. Ellinwood, who spoke here on
Sunday, Nov. II, at which time about
$1,000 was pledged for the work.
Newport was asked for $4,000 and
the business men met together under
the leadership of Rev. H. B. Rankin
and appointed committees to carry on
the drive. Sunday afternoon was
chosen for the final work and the
town was canvassed by over 40 men
working in teams of four. The day
closed with a mass meeting of all de-
at Lanes Opera house.
The speakers were Sgt. George E.
Watts Of Waterville, P. O., who has
seen considerable trench warfare pri-
or to injuries which were the cause
of his returning home. His descrlp-
lions of trench life were very inter-
esting.
He was followed by Ex-Gov. JOSH
ali Grout, O. C. Miller and Rev. Geo.
Pomfrey.
The vested choir of the West Der
by Baptist church directed by Mrs.
Don Puffer, furnished the music.
The result of the drive in the town
of Newport and West Derby was
over 700 pledges for the Y. M. c: A:
Red Triangle, aggregating 3d. 1859
with the addition of about 40 pledges
from as many boys of $40 each which
they will earn before April 1st, MAX
ing a total of over $4,000, of which
S1187 has already been paid into the
hands of the treasurer, Charles A.
Brown.

Every Protestant minister in the
Wisconsin metropolis has joined
whole-heartedly in the campaign and
church-goers, Sunday, were appraised
of the campaign by official announce
ments from the pulpits of Milwaukee
churches. So heartily have the
preachers entered into the campaign,
that they have dug down into their
own pockets and produced the cash
to insert full-page ADVERTISEMENTS in
the Milwaukee Sunday papers to en-
phasize the fact that the National
War Work Council of the association
is doing the work of the Christian
people generally, and that inasmuch
as the Y. M. &C. A. contributes it's or

ever that this campaign is more

senting these counties, met and in an
enthusiastic meeting, increased the
districts quota from $4,000 to $780,
900. Much interest was manifested at
the meeting and the leaders, accord
