The Red Cross Sale

The sale held by the local Red
Cross was not as largely patronized
as expected. The donations were
very liberal. as there were many
articles left over on account of the
limited time in which to conduct
the sale. A number of the Ameri-
can ridge people were particularly
liberal in their donations and the
only regret which the management
feels is that many articles of value
had to be sold at a real sacrifice
Those who were present were gooC
buyers but there were too few Of
them.
The entire proceeds from the sal,
brought in the neighborhood o.
5000. This amount can be used t.
a good advantage as there is neet
for all the money that can be Sc
cured.
The success of the sale is due Il
the efforts of Mr.. Callison VIII
spent much time and hard worl
getting the articles ready and col
lecting things from different part
of town. Mr.. Emmel, as auction
eer, also contributed largely by hi
strenuous efforts to force the bid
|; ding. 1t is being planned to cor
tinue the sale at a later date in ol
der to realize funds from the al
ticles that were not sold.

The speaking at the Grand The
atre last Monday night drew a large
crowd of interested citizens. A
number of people from the different
ridges drove in to be present at the
meeting. Rev. Emmel presided and
introduced Judge Rice as the first
speaker. He said many good things
that pertained to the war and to
the part which the people at home
will have in deciding the issue.
The Judge has two sons fighting
for Uncle Sam SO the things which
he said came from his heart.
William E. Lee of Moscow gave
an inspiring talk that was we'll re.
ceived here. He is an enthusiastic
speaker and the things which he
said were along the line that his
hearers could endorse.
The band gave an open air con.
cert for half an hour before the
speaking began. Their service.
were greatly appreciated and they
assisted materially in getting the
crowd assembled at an early hour.

Next Draft $50, 600

Approximately 100000 men will
be sent to the training camps dur
ing the five day period beginning
April 26 under orders sent to state
governors by Provost Marshal Gen.
eral Crowder for mobilization of
the April call Of the second draft.
This is three times the number it
was originally planned to call and is
nearly twice the monthly quota as
based on the calling 100000 men
over a period of nine months. Call
ing out of the increased number
was made necessary by the decision
of President Wilson to respond
without delay to the need of France
and Great Britain for reinforce
ments in the great battle in Picardy.
Vacancies in national army divisions
resulting from the withdrawal of
men to complete national guard
and regular army units and for the
formation of special technical units
asked by General Pershing will be
made good by the April draft.
Those divisions farthest advanced
in training are to receive first at
tention in order that the maximum
number of complete units may lie
sent abroad soon.
Pennsylvania leads with 1895
called; Ohio is second with 10,301
and New York third with 1O,17l
