The Ruby Branch

The Ruby Branch A. R. C. held
their annual meeting Monday after
noon at Red Cross headquarters.
Officers for the following year were
elected and financial report made
by the treasurer.
Mrs. j. r. Millard, chairman; Mrs.
M. l.. Raley, secretary, and Mrs. R.
M. Newsom, treasurer, were re-elect-
ed for the ensuing year.
The Branch has had a very sue
cessful year of service. The first
part of the year was given to knit
ting. Twice have they responded
most literally to the call for cloth
ing for the Belgians. In the recent
box sent by the chapter, Ruby Branch
contributed almost a hundred articles
of clothing including a most credit
able amount of new material. In the
hospital linen showers they contribu-
ted two sheets, six bath towels, four
teen hand towels, twenty-five hand
kerchiefs and twenty-five napkins.
During the recent influenza epidemic
they furnished face masks to all who
applied for them.

GERMAN SHIPS CARRY OUT
GREAT NAVAL SURRENDER

London, Nov. 17,tLThis week will
see the greatest naval surrender
which the world has ever witnessed
A great fleet of German battleships
battle cruisers, and light cruisers and
destroyers will leave port Monday
morning at o'clock for an unknown
destination. They will be met by
the British fleet, accompanied by
American and French representatives
and conducted to their destination.
The Times Naval CORRESPONDENT
says:
The appearance of the long line
of vessels to be surrendered, carry
ing reduced crews and no armament,
the method of their transference to
the allied escorts, the exchange of
flags on the German ships when that
happens and the striking Of the colors
which have replaced the Imperial en-.
sign, the ancient token of yielding
will be among the more interesting
features Of the manifestation.
The war has come to an end, and
Germany has lost her colonies and
her trade. She now loses the best
part of her effective naval force.
The terms of the armistice stipu-
late that ten battleships, six battle
cruisers, eight light cruisers, and fif-
ty destroyers of the most modern
type shall be given up.

PRESIDENT WILSON WILL
ATTEND PEACE CONFERENCE

Washington, Nov. 1s. President
Wilson is to go to Europe for the pur-
pose of consulting representatives of
the allied Governments with respect
to the determination of the main fea-
lures Of the peace treaty. All doubt
that the President would visit Europe
was removed late this evening when
the following official statement was
issued through the Committee on
Public Information:
The President to sail for France
Immediately after the opening of the
regular session of Congress, for the
purpose of taking part in the discus
sion and settlement of the main fea-
lures of the treaty of peace.
1t is not likely that it will be DOS
slble for him to remain throughout
the sessions of the formal peace con-
ference, but his presence at the out
set is necessary in order to obviate
the manifest disadvantages of dis
cussion by cable in determining the
greater outlines of the final treaty.,
about which he must necessarily be
consulted.
He will, of course be accompanied
by delegates who will sit as the rep
resentatives of the United States
throughout the conference. The
names of the delegates will be pres
emily announced.

duced from Z second to a third class

As a result Of tho lowering OF the

ance for the help will not be as large

There is no possible chance Of the
