the one dollar contributions coming
in splendidly from our citizens to-
ward the incidental expenses connect

card relative to this fund will send
in their dollar SO as to make it 100
per cent response.

tional gun shoot at Camp Perry last
week, Lieut.. Paul G. Warren, this
city, has been recommended by the
commanding officer for assignment as
small arms instructor at Camp Perry.
We congratulate Paul as will all of
the people of Wauwatosa. All of our
Wauwatosa boys are proving to be fit
in all positions of the army, the ma
jority of them having been members
Of the old Light Guard where they
received military training from small
boys to young men.
The next meeting of the Wauwa-
tosa Woman's Club will be musical

E. Tyrrell, Mrs. L. c. Wheeler, Mrs.
H. Lindsay and Mrs. Richard Dewey;

Contributions for the White Ele.
phant sale to be held in November are
coming in nicely. Everything is &C.
ceptable and is needed to meet the de-
mands during the sale. Every penny
of the money made at the White Ele
plant sale is needed for the soldiers
and sailors and their families, and sim.
liar relief work. AS all workers know,
the Red Cross Society is not issuing
any yarn at the present, 81 900 of the
funds received at the sale last year
has been used to purchase yarns for
the war work. This is a very recent
purchase and only shows one way in
which the money is used to advantage
There are practically no expenses
connected with the sale, so every do
nation benefits our boys and their
families.
The parade in Milwaukee at 2 p. NJ
on Saturday, Sept. rs, to start the
Fourth Liberty Loan campaign, is to
be unique and unusually pretty
spectacle There will be floats and
emblems carried by representatives
from each individual unit, each appro
pirate to the times and the occasion.
The attraction from Wauwatoswa is
to be a Liberty Bell which is to be
carried by eight home guardsmen if
possible, and twenty-one of our girls
in national costumes will carry rib
bons from the bell. The significance
of this emblem is that all nations ring
our Liberty Bell Only those carrying
floats or emblems are to be in this
parade, making IL much more attrac-
tive and interesting than any hereto
fore and worthy of a throng of spec
tators.
