The Haakon county chapter
has received a check for $50
from L. P. Sherman Of Mt.
Vernon az gift. Mr.. Sherman
recently held large cattle sale
and announced that he would
give the proceeds of a certain
cow to be sold to the Red Gross
chapters of Jones, Jackson ssand
Haakon counties. The COW was
purchased by R. E. Brown Of
Reliance for $3.50. Hence the
check. This large generosity
certainly makes us glad.

Philip, 5. OAK, April 16. 1918
To the Citizens of Haakon
County:
The Germans have started
their big push for autocracy and
it is up to us to hold them. This
is the most critical moment Of
the war, but our enthusiasm
shall not slacken but instead
shall be famed to a brighter
flame which will demonstrate thal
we will not allow German Kul-
tur to overrun the world.
Lloyd George says the decisive
battle is now being fought and
we must have the combined ef-
forts of every nation and every
individual.
Haakon County's share in the
the Third Liberty Loan drive
now being launched is $66. 900, so
patriotic citizens step forward
and do your share to supply the
money necessary to stamp out
militarism. If you can invest
fifty dollars or a hundred do
$50 If more so much the better.

Myths Hard to Down.

Many details of the pig myths of Ire
land, Scotland and Wales reveal the
fact that the ancient stories of the
dragon have been preserved with re-
markable completeness, even though
they have been kept alive by verbal
currency for vast number of years.
The efficacy of a one-eyed man as
pig-slayer in Ireland is a case in point
In the earliest version of the dragon
myth the monster is killed by the Eye
of Rel. e., the moon or sun. The
Greeks interpreted this literally and
created a being with destructive eye,
and in Ireland this belief is still potent
to influence the conduct of our con.
temporaries.
Ever since the time when the human
spirit first began TO seek for an elixir
of life these myths have been circu-
lating among mankind. In the visions
Of the small children of Roscommon we
are catching glimpses of the thoughts
of people who lived long before the
Pyramids of Egypt were dreamed of.
This helps us also to understand how
profoundly our actions and beliefs are
Influenced by the remote history of
mankind.

Gas Gets the Rats.

An enemy whose activities do not
figure in the official reports but against
which allied soldiers wage daily war
fare is the rat. Tens of thousands Of
rats, huge, sharp-fanged fighters, have
dug themselves in among the billets
and trenches in France and Flanders
and they are a constant torment.
Thanks to modern medical science
there has been little or no disease
communicated by the rodents. Rats
multiply rapidly in the trenches and
thrive WELL They steal the soldiers
rations, disturb his rest and spitefully
bite him when he offers resistance. The
pest is hunted with ferrets, terriers,
poison and traps and when particu-
larry numerous given a gas attack.
After the trenches are drenched with
gas they are generally clear of rats
for long period.
