I'm the New England Bulletin of the
american Red Cross there is splen-
did review Of it's work during the past
year from which the following is an
extract under The title of 'The Human
Side"
1.-THE American Red Cross recognizes
chat our first duty for humanity in this
war is the protection of our soldiers
I'm France. 1t recognizes also that this
duty lies with the United States gov
ernment and that the government is
responsible for it. AS a supplement-
airy relief organization the Red Cross
stands ready to cooperate with the
government in this work, and to put
its Organization, money and supplies
into service at the call Of the Ameri-
Gan army whenever and wherever they
NH be of use. Fully realizing the dis
advantages that are always met in
foreign country, and with the view Of
Keeping our soldiers in touch with
things American, the Red Cross begins
Mt the port of landing in France by
establishing rest stations. These rest
stations extend inland toward the
camps and are located in series at
junction points and railroad stations
where the soldiers are required to
wait for train connections.
Chief work of the American Red
Cross in helping care for wounded sol
diers lies in its cooperation with the
government in supplying an efficient
nursing service; in assisting the Army
Medical corps in cases of emergency,
and in furnishing materials for hos
pitfalls. There were on March 1, 1918,
more than twenty-three hundred Amer
Scan Red Cross nurses employed in
base hospitals and in the French mill
tary hospitals throughout the republic.
The total number of hospitals of va
riouS sorts in the French republic ex-
reeds five thousand. and more than
half of these are receiving all or part
of their medical and surgical supplies
from the American Red Cross.

diers is being carried on jointly by tho
French government and the American
Red Cross. There are between fifty
and sixty schools of various kinds for
this work. The Red Cross has provid-
ed more than six hundred mutilated
soldiers with artificial legs Of the best
type, and has established a factory
near Paris where artificial limbs are
manufactured. BY arranging for con-
sultatiOn between the surgeon and the
manufacturer, the Red Cross has been
| able to secure the best possible treat
ment for each case.
With the wanton destruction of
homes by the German army and the
uprooting of the population in the dev-
astated regions, the home as an in
stitution in France is in peril. Real
izing this condition, the Red Cross is
! endeavOring to keep the soldiers
homes intact; to find homes for the
outcast children who have neither
homes nor parents, and to help the
refugees and repatrieS to find a place
to live until they shall be able to re-
build their homes.
''The most telling work of the Red
Cross in France, as far as helping to
win the war goes, is the care of the
| families of the French soldiers. The
Red Cross is giving to the needy fam
lilies of these French soldiers supplies
and money, according to their needs.
''When the German army invaded
France, hundreds of thousands Of
French people We're driven from their
homes and are now scattered through
out the republic. These people are
known as refugees The number has
increased, of course, for various rea-
sons until now there are more than l.
100000, embracing all classes and ages,
except able-bodied men. There are ap.
proXinately 100000 refugees in Paris
! alone.
THE housing of these people is one
of the greatest problems of the French
government. The American Red Cross
is cooperating with the French govern.

DehOrning cattle is almost universal
ly practiced by stockmen who raise
high-grade steers. Cattle without horns
are easier to handle, have an equal
chance at the feed trough when placed
in the feed lots, are less dangerous to
attendants, and are more uniform in
appearance. Also, they cannot gore
one another in the feed lot or in tran
sit to market, which causes greater
shrinkage in weight, Injuries the skin
for commercial purposes, and leaves
the flesh in bruised condition, thus
detracting from it's value.
While there are many cruel ways of
performing this operation, one of the
simplest and easiest methods is to use

PERMANENT ROAD Is FAVORED
Saving in Cost Of Rebuilding Would

Few Years.

A writer on the advantage of Der.

the saving in the cost of rebuilding
would pay for them in comparative
~ few years-and then there would be
a prospect of valuable returns. The
thing would be like making few pay
ments to secure an annuity. Wherever
the money can be raised there should
be permanent highways. That is the

.THR|F I DANCE
 ON. WEDNESDAY

Have a good time, help the nation and be thrifty. Can it be done? Easy. Just take part in the newest scheme to- boost thrift stamps-the dance to be given Wednesday night at Wicker shams under the auspices of the Thrift Stamp campaign committee.
 In the first place the dance is to be jolly one and the price of one thrift stamp will admit to it. Those who at tend and wish to look on need spend no more but those who dance are eX- pected to buy s1.5o worth of thrift stamps and they can dance to their hearts content without further outlay.
 The two-b bits is to defray the cost of the dance itself and the committee eX- poets to clean up by selling several hundred stamps to the dancers.
 There is also dated for three days, April II, F and Is, another big amuse- ment for the aid of the sale of thrift stamps. On those three days the Mari- cepa county thrift stamp organization has been given the use of the Empress theater so that it may secure means for carrying on it's campaign. A big show for good cause is promised
 There is still another way to help out in the thrift campaign. Furniture is badly needed for the headquarters and any who will loan the needed ar ticles will be aiding in, the good work.

PRINTERS BALL |S
 PARAMOUNT SUCCESS

What has been declared to be the greatest event of it's kind in the history of the organization was the Printers annual ball given by mem bers of Phoenix Typographical Union, No. 352 at Patrick's hall last evening. 1t is annually a custom to give a dance on Easter Monday and the pro- ceeds are placed in the sick fund.
 Every year number of printers afflicted with tuberculosis come to this part of the state in the hope of improving their condition. The in ternational union maintains home or institution at Colorado Springs where aged, infirm and suffering printers are cared for, but usually !t is filled to it's capacity. Many print CTS seek another location and Phoenix and vicinity offers the advantages for which they are seeking. The local printers assume the care of their afflicted fellow workmen and so do- ing, makes a heavy demand upon their time and finances. The money
 is raised in various ways, but the annual ball is the only affair to which the public is asked to par- ticipate in.
 A woman's purse was found on the floor after the dance last evening. The owner may have it by calling phone 2790 and identifying it.

STIFF SENTENCE
 /. |S SbOOTLECCERS'

Eighteen months at hard labor and a fine Of $500, or one day for each dollar. Tor Cole Evans and Earl Erwin and a two years suspended sentence for Mrs. Belle Evans were the sentences if1l- posed by Judge Stanford on the trio convicted by a jury of introducing in. toXicating liquor.
 The sentences were passed after the defendants counsel pleaded for len- iency. W. L. Barnum made strong plea, urging the court to extend mercy, pleading to the end for corrective punishment
 That Mrs. Evans in seeking to warn her husband and brother -in-law that the officers were in wait for them was only doing what any loving and faith full wife would do. was the contention Of P. H. Hayes who declared her con- duct was justifiable.
 The jury in the case of the woman who went to Buckeye to tip off the men coming from the coast with a ma- chine load of liquor, recommended a suspended sentence.

KANSAS CITY SHORT
 ON BREAD SUPPLIES
[Republlcan A. p. Leased WireI

KANSAS CITY, April 1.-Kansas City tonight is facing what may prove a serious shortage of bread, as the re- suit of the strike called last week in connection with the walkout of the laundry workers. When workers in local bakeries today joined the general strike an appeal was made to Herbert C. Hoover federal food administrator, to use his authority to call the strikers back to work. In a telegram tonight to State Food Administrator Mumford, MT. Hoover asserted he was powerless 10 interfere.
 A feature of the situation lies in the fact that not only city consumers but also troops passing through Kansas City on troop trains and soldiers in nearby training camps will feel the ef- fleets of the threatened bread shortage. All but one of the city's larger bakeries shut down today.
