WOMEN ENLIST IN
 BATTALION OF LIFE
Sunshine Division of Home Service
 Rivals Battalion of Death in E Real War Work.

RuSsia's Battalion of Death made its women immortal by death-defying action at the front. America's Bat talion of Life bids fair to merit i'm mortality by it's life and strength giv- inS action in the home trenches, con meeting directly with the men who go ever the top.
 A new kind of women's army has come into being. It is called the "Sun- shine Division" It started under un-
 usual circumstances. Margaret Wood
 TOW Wilson, the presidents daughter,
 known for her patriotic war service; i;
 Ter aide, Major Oakes, and small
 group of friends, including Miss Mar
 icrie Brown of Atlanta, Ga, daughter
 of one of the leading men of the south
 @nd a relative of the president, were
 discussing Women's part in the war and the importance Of enliStinS the effort, talent, and activity of every woman in the country. The need of organization and direction of that time and talent not already devoted to defi- nite war work was recognized, and out of the discussion came plans fori conserving the patriotic effort of every patriotic woman, and more especially tac young women of the country. Thel army to be recruited was designated the Sunshine Division" It's scope of service is limited only by the ability| of the enlisted women to serve, anal there is no woman ineligible for serv-I ice except she who is already doingE Ter utmost to help win the war Par ticularS are available from Maj A. P.I Oakes, now stationed at United WarI Work headquarters, Dallas,. Tex.

Fl. B. Dixon, Editor of the Cleveland County Herald, passed away October 18th. He came 10 Arkansas, seven years age fro1a Mississippi. He came te| Ris0n 3 years ago, and was only 37 years of age. He had been q member of the Baptist churcl for years.
 Mir: Dixon was a very valuabl !nal to his community and coun tfs He believed in, and advo cated things that were for the helterment of humanity. His efforts in which he seemed to b. untirin5, speak for his loyalty to his country and to democracy. He was not boisterous, nor did he seek to popularize himself un- duly, but was quiet, energetic aaa honest and those who came in contact with him naturally found . true friend.
 We sincerely regret his seem inalg untimely death and fee that ours is a great loss.

The allies have ample supplies Of guns
and ammunition, but what they must
have Is more men. and that quickly.
England Is sending troops across the
channel with speed not heretofore
equalled, and Americas fighters are
being hurried over as fast as possible
In response to the call Secretary of
War Baker who is still In France, has
learned his lesson, and II Is understood
he is urging the greatest expedition in
getting our army across.
Day by day the American troops are
being hurried up TO the fighting front
and brgaded with the British and
French. who greet their arrival with
cheers. That they are now taking an
active part In the great battle Is evil
denced by the lengthenlng casualty
lists sent over by General Pershng.
In their own sector the Americans
continue to do fine work. On Wednes-
day, just northwest Of Toul, they were
subject TO the strongest attack the Ger
mans had made In that region, after
three days heavy shelling The Yam
KEGS not only broke up the advancing
ranks by their artillery fire. but
promptly emerged from their shelters
and chased the shattered Hun troops
from the field.
