Notes Of Inter-
est to Workers
of the Red Cross

To Red Cross workers: On April !
an altogether new regime obtains in
part Of the Red Cross work. The
surgical dressing division of the supply
| committee now receives it's instruc-
tions, acquisitions and supplies directly
| from the war department. Since we are
| now working thru the Red Cross
directly for our war department. our
work takes on a new aspect locally. We
are to tighten up our operating ma
chine in all its loose joints. We are as
| individuals, to turn out all we do per-
fectly.
The majority Of Marshall county
work has been eScellently done. some
perfectly done, and very small por-
ton incompletely done. 1t is by reason
, of the latter that we want a still closer
relation to complete detail, and this
for two reasons.
| First and foremost our government
will not tolerate any other than per-
feet work, and second by sending work
to central division so perfect that 1t
needs no further inspection will release
for constructive service large body Of
women who now spend their entire
time inspecting. When chapters main
tain the perfect standard they will
hereafter receive paper bags in which
to pack dressings. When these are re-
ceived it means your work will be
shipped direct to France.
We now request that every worker
perfect her own work, and that every
branch and auxiliary must have a
rigid inspecting committee which
passes on eevry article and which ar
ranges them by accurate count into
properly tied bundles, and sends them
in here in such condition that they
need no further inspection by the CEN
trail division. We can not serve our
country better at this time than by SO
doing.
We also request that work sent in
and the name OF the chairman of your
inspecting committee and that it re-
main in its container until taken over
by our shipping committee Monday.
previous to its shipment on Tuesday.
Enough praise can not be given to
the splendid army Of Marshall county
women which has been doing all kinds
of Red Cross work, for every one has
shown the real spirit of splendid CO.
operation and good will. many times
working at a disadvantage or at a
sacrifice. That this must go on and
multiply is only too apparent. More
women who have not yet realized it's
needs for them must join this army.
This is no time for selfish indulgence.
1t Is the time for womanhood to reach
its sublime heights. Make up your
mind today that you will contribute
yourself to the cause Cora Williams

CHRIS BoLLHoLFER SUMMONED
BEFORE COUNCIL FOR NOT
BUYING, TAKES 5000.
RICH, TURNS COMMITTEE
DOWN; SUMMONED BY COUNCIL
BoIIhoIfer's Subscriptions Before the
Council Of Defense Twice What He
Was Asked to Buy by Committee
That Found Him Working Near
Green ntain-Send Sheriff.

Refusing, when solicited to buy lib
erty bonds of the third issue, Chris
Bollholfer, a wealthy farmer Of Mari
posa township, Jasper county, was
Tuesday summoned before the Jasper
county council of defense, where Boil
holfer quickly changed his mind about
the bond purchase and bought $4,000
worth. He had been solicited Monday
to buy $1,000 by the committee. COM
posed of Postmaster J. A. Winger and
Albert Osten.
The committee found Bollholfer cut
ting wood east Of Green Mountain. and
made the long trip by auto only to be
refused by Bollhelfer, whose chief
complaint against the government
seems to be as nearly as can be
learned, that he objected to the man
ner and extent by which he was taxed
by the war tax measure.
Summoned to Appear.
The committee returned to Newton
and reported Bollholfer to the county
council of defense. 1t caused a sum-
mons to be prepared for Bolholfer to
appear before the council at 1880
Tuesday evening. Deputy Sheriff 7.
J. Patton served the notice on Boil
hotter. The latter did not wait for the
hour set for the notice. the deputy
sheriff said today. but appeared be-
fore the council soon after being
served. He as quickly subscribed for
the bonds and was warmly congrat-
dated for mis- change OF heart.
BolIholfer, who is said to be OF GeS-
man descent, is reputed to be worth
from So, 900 20 $50 0OO. He owns land
six miles southwest of Laurel. Up 10

GRiNNELL CLUB MEETS.
Annual Dinner and Reunion Of Stu

dents heId-President Main Speaks.
At the annual dinner and reunion OF
former Grinnell College students, held
in the Congregational church Tuesday
evening, most excellent vocal music
was furnished by members of the col
lege staff, and President II. 7. Main
told the friends of the college some
very interesting things about it.
Grinnell College has 1872 stars on its
war service flag, with one gold star for
student who died in an army camp.
Fourteen members Of the college fac
ulty have gone to war, and all the
students remaining, women included.
are organized and husily engaged in
war service work, such as war gardens
and the Red Cross.
President Main declared his conf
dence in the loyalty and Americanism
Of DR.. E. A. Steiner, who had been
subjected to severe criticism. altho
President Mains outspoken desire for
force to be used against the Huns is
very much in contrast to the world
democracy idealism Of DR. Steiner in
discussing the war situation. The
Grinnell College faculty is on record
with an appeal to President Wilson 10
get into the war for American rights
at the time the Lusitania was sunk.
That appeal was ignored then, but
time has INDICATED the clearness OF
the Grinnell faculty's vision then.
Military training in connection with
the regular college work at Grinnell
has been established as permanent
institution there. The college has kept
up it's full attendance, in the face OF
a loss Of 10 men from the two upper
classes by enlistment by renting
rooming houses and admitting more
women than the womens quadrangle
would accommodate. In normal times
attendance of women at Grinnell Col
lege is limited to those who live with
their parents in Grinnell and to those
who can be accommodated in the
quadrangle.
The broad, open minded, tolerant
and scientific ideal of intellectual de-
velopment, which is the dominant pur-
pose of the college, was outlined by
President Main, who embodies this
purpose strongly in his own well ball
anced personality.
