McGill Notes

Finishing the war fund drive with
a total OF s17.740 the McGin chap
ter of the Red Cross lived up to the
standard set in McGill of always 60
ing over the top. In every drive and
campaign held in McGill the quota
set BY the government or governing
body has been exceeded by a large
sum. but the past war drive fund
has been the most successful OF all
as in this one McGin raised more
than eight times the quota set by the
Red Cross. There were only two
towns in Arizona exceeded their
quota. one by more than nine times
and the other by more than eight
times, these being the only mes ahead
OF MeGin. At this rate, getting bet
ter at each drive and campaign. Nc
Gill will probably go clear out of
sight at the next call.
The Nevada Con. did a good deal
to help bring up the figures as $10,-
900 was contributed by this company
to the war fund. The McGm Ma
tional bank did its share by contrib
uting $500 TO the fund.
In all about $500 people contrib
uted, which means that practically
every man employed by the Nevada
Con. gave something to the fund. Any
man employed by the company not
contributing this fund can almost
without exception be termed a slack
er inasmuch as the amount asked was
not large.
AS a little more than s724o was
contributed by $500 people. about SO
was the per capita amount.
OF the total amount, practically ali
vas in hte form of cash. the money
being paid when the pledge was
signed. Only $500 was to be paid
on pay day. This fact makes the
campaign remarkable. as the past
pledges have been deducted from
the pay roll.
The state Council OF Defense. be-
lieving that the National Red Cross
had underesfimated the ability OF
McGin people tripled the quota. max
ing il $4,000 instead of $4,000. But
using this quota as the basis, and II
vas not the official quota. McGill
would about have trinpled he quota.

Sentence was imposed by Judge Nc
Phe1son. OF the United States Circuit
Court, who came down 10 Wilmington
for the purpose.
The entire proceeding lasted a few
seconds short of three minutes and wound
up for good a fight against compliance
with the law of the land Stephens has
been making since that memorable day
of June, 1917. when millions of young
men all over the lard went before their
local boards and landed IN their names as
notcntial fighters for Uncle Sam in the
war to preserve the letter and spirit OF
Democracy To the peoples of the Garth.

FORT|FICAT|O WORK

Taken From Wilmington. it May
Have Bearing on State
Business.

Engineering control OF the Delaware
river and bay Notifications has been
transferred from the War Department
Office in Wilmington, in charge of +. G.
Warner to the Philadelphia office Of the
department, in charge Of L. ID. Shuman,
This transfer does not, however, make

control Of the regular river, harbor and
bav work in the local district
In view Of the fact that the local Office
has charge Of the Delaware river and bay
engineering work. rs part Of the Federal
district of Delaware, the reason for this
move is not apparent. No information
in regard Ia the matter could be obtained
st the local office. neither was any obtain
able from anv other source today.
However, il is matter IN which the
people of Delaware. in addition 70 their
civic pride, feel some concern, IN view OF
the fact that the transfer may have some
bearing on the State in q business way
TIp 10 this time material and supplies
have been purchased in Delaware which
is advantageous not only 10 the state,
but also for the government, because Of
the proximity Of the source Of supply TO
the work Whether this policy will he
continued with the headquarters in
another State, Is not known
At all events. it will seem worth while
for the Delaware members of Congress,
having the interest Of their State at heart,
to look into the matter at Washington,
and ascertain the cause. If the transfer
is found to have been made for good
governmental reasons. then the people
of Delaware should know il and would
make no protest, but if the change is due
to sentimental reasons, Senators Sauis-
bury and Wolcott ard Congressman Polk
might cause restoration Of the former
program Inquiry will do no harm and
would satisfy the public mind.
In addition 10 the work that Is always
in progress at Forts du Pont Delaware

there is q strong probability Of additlora

RI the prediction of the L s. Weather

then there is some relief in sight from the
hot spell, that has been towering over
the East for the past five days His
prediction is slightly cooler on the coast
tonight
When today broke, after a sueltering
humid night, the outlook was that today
would he as hot If not hotter than any
day Of the heated period. The mercury
at o'clock stood at So and at noon had

breeze from the south, but If one moved
