S86.9l NET PROCEEDS
OF RED CROSS BENEFIT

The treasury of the Red Cross
chapter is richer today by $S6.91 as
the result of the benefit at the Rex
theater yesterday when the patriotic
film "The Man Without a Country
was shown.
The management of the Rex had
secured the film and turned it, to-
gether with the use Of the theater
and all employees and expense Of op-
GRAFTON over to the Red Cross ladies
for the benefit of the chapter treas
ury. Only the small expense of ad-
vertising came out of the gross re-
ceipts, leaving a net sum of $S6.91.
The Pioneer has been asked to ex-
press the appreciation of the chap
ter ladies to Mr.. and. Mrs. Brinkman
for their generosity in making pos
sible the splendid success which at
tended their efforts to aid the Red
Cross.

by Adjutant General VIZ RhinoW,
who. has arranged to confer with
Governor IA. A. .&SBurnquist.- Per

militia bureau. s4
The troops will be for service
within the state only. All would be
infantry regiments, General RhinoW
said, because the state has no ar
mories available for artillery.

Although the offer will not be def
nitely accepted until Governor Burn
quist has had an opportunity to6ex-
press an opinion, General Rhinow
said the plan was meeting with ia
/vor. He has sounded Home Guard
officers on their attitude, which was
found favorable. Men between the
ages of 18 and As will be eligible, ex-
cepting those Of draft age. General
Rhinow said that no draft age men
would be accepted unless there was
some circumstance definitely barring
them from service in the National
army. Men under draft age who
Joined would not be freed from draft
service on reaching 21 years.
That existing Hoge Guard units
would probably" be used as the nu-
cleus of the new militia regiments
was the belief expressed by officers
today. The former method of hav-
ing individuals organize units and
offer them to the state will be dis
countenanced.
