Vctory Boys and
 VctorD Girls
(By Elizabeth Gregg)

(By Elizabeth Gregg)
 What shall be the results of the victory girl campaign?
 First of all a new interpretation of sacrifcial giving.
 Second. A greater appreciation from the girls of the true meaning of Democracy.
 Third. A deepening and increas- ing ideal of community service through the already existing organ ization for girls.
 What shall be the results of the Victory Boy campaign?
 First. The development of boys in intelligent sacrifcial investments of their lives in behalf of the great cause.
 Second. Full preparation for the largest usefulness in the reconstruc- tion days ahead and in a growth of consciousness of the spiritual signi- fcance of the gift of life and talent in the cause of righteousness.
 Third. An inspiration and stim- ulus to increased effort by men in the general campaign. Learning of the sacrifcial price the boys pay on the earn and give basis, men and women will give larger amounts and work harder.
 Earn and give, earn and give.
 The w. c. T. U. has offered a handsome prize of framed picture of President Wilson to the school that in proportion to their number, goes over the top, first and most exceeds it's quota.
 Newport school! here is competition for us. Let's go in for the picture.
 The following are three little in cidents that occurred in St. Louis during last years campaign. One boy from the orphan home pledged $1O.O0. He had to save his $1.00 per month from an allowance of $3O.0O This meant some sacrifice to such a lad. He was chippled himself and ap- preciated that his money would be properly spent in Europe. Several boys worked late into the night at the post office in order to pay their pledge. Two girls walked to and from school every day saving carfare so that they could meet their obldga- tions of $f0.00. Such real sacrifices should inspire us to do our part in the earn and give campaign.

Governor C. H. Brough. GOVERNOR AT
 PRESCOTT

Last Monday Governor c. H.. Brough spoke to about 1, ,500 peo- pie in the Nevada County Court House. His address dealt with the war situation, and perhaps did more to arouse the spirit of loyalty in this county than any thing since the war mas started. He brought the war question close home to the people in a most impressive way. The Gov ernor complimented Nevada county on her splendid response to the many calls made upon her ln financial way, and especially did he compliment the Red Cross ladies for their unt ring efforts to do their bit in this great con fiict.
 There are few equals and none that can exceed Governor Brough on the platform. He sends his message home to the very hearts of his hearers.

EXTENSION NOTES.

The State Meeting of County Agents was held at Fayetteville Dec. 20 21. SiXty-fve counties were represented. The object of the meeting was to outline the course of work for the year 1918.
 The underlying principle If the entire session was Prepara- tion to Win the War. President Futrell of the State University told us in the beginning of tie session that every discussion should have in view the best method of procedure under War conditions.
 MT. Mercier, Field Agent for the South, said the county agents did not take the war Seriously enough. That the people in gen eIal had very little conception f what we are undertaking. But we must accomplish what We have undertaken. and to do SC calls for the united efforts of men, women, boys, and girls.
 Special emphasis was placed
 
 on the production of hogs. There is a shor age of 10 per cent and the demand is 20 per cent great CT. Arkansas is called on to in- crease her hog production 20 per cent. Other counties are re- spending nobly. When l am called on for a report from Ne vada l want to report that we will more than make our 20 per cent increase. l would like for every person wko raises hogs to send me a card telling me how much they intend to increase their herd.

PRIVATE H. \. DAWSON HAS
 NOT KILLED AN OFFICER

Last week it was currently re- ported that our son. H. H. Daw- son who is now stationed at Camp Pike, had killed an officer. and that he is under arrest. This report is false; he has had no trouble whatever. and says, he regards every officer under whom he has served as his per sonal friend. He often writes us that a more courteous and gentlemanly set of officers could hardly be found. He says the boys are being we'll cared for, and that a soldier who obeys orders and does his duty has no just cause for complaint.

IA M ERICAN TARS
 HOLD NO FEAR FOR .C OLD WEATHER

Base of American Flotilla in Eng
 fish Waters, March l. CCorrespond- ence of The Associated Press. .)-Ad- miral Henry T. Mayo, commander of the Atlantic Fleet, has cabled to Vice Admiral Sims, in charge of American naval operations in the war zone. A. request for information regarding the suitability of the special winter out 1 fits of clothing furnished to the naval men by the Navy Department at | Washington. Admiral Mayo also wants to know of any recommenda- tions for changes in these garments. i The Associated Press correspondent has yet to hear a word of complaint against the present outfits worn by the men. Thanks to the busy women who knit. Most of the men, early in 1 their arrival here, received excellent | sweaters jerseys and socks which 1 were sent by wives, relatives and friends back home. When the cold weather came on these were aug mented by an entirely new issue of extra heavy winter clothing. Many of these garments were designed by the British from their long experience
 in torpedo boats in the hard winters off this coast.
 Here are some of the things, which when donned, make some of the men look more like Arctic explorers than i bIuejackets:
 Helmets of wool which cover all but the eyes, nose and houth; light knitted coat sweaters, jerseys and cardigan jackets; knitted mittens and gloves; extra heavy coarse under clothing; heavy woolen socks and knee length stockings; leather sea | bCots; wind proof khak-colored trous- CTS; great coats lined with lambs wool The last named are worn over l the life jackets and help to make up the most serviceable combination
 worn by Americans over here. They keep the men warm on the damp, cold days witt the biting winds when the sleet squalls are hourly affairs ! and ''ypu can't see an inch"
 i Relatives of a large majority of the men ever here continue to send them knitted things All sorts of knitted garments arrive and are deeply ap- i preciated. Oftimes the men receive knitted garments from wife or sweet fOart that are not very serViceable bIt accompanying letters from home are so enthusiastic that the men he's itate to utter a word of criticism.
 Experience has shown that the wo- men folks back home ought to con- centrate on socks as they are in the
 greatest demand and most appreciat- ed of all things they send to the sailor boys over there.

COUNT TELLSWHY
 RUSSIAN PEOPLE. LIKE WILHEL Mi

Paris, March Count Nesserode one of the first Russians to respond to the peoples demands for a. better share of the worlds goods by dis tributing among them all of his pron- erty except what he required for his own living, says the growing distance between the people of Russia and those of Western Europe is due to the neglect by the French and other leading nations, except Germany. to cultivate relations with the Russian people.
 He was exiled in 1905 by the gov ernment because of the bad example he set to the nobility in giving his property over to peasants Since then he has resided in France and became a naturalized citizen of the republic, A persS4-2l friend of Kerensky, Count Nesselrode was a fervent adherent to the revolution and gave to the pro- visional government what aid he could from this end.
 "The French are astonished at the progress made by German influence in Russta,' he says, "but they forget that the Germans are simply reaping the reward of persistent efforts that date back to a remote period" As an example Cour- Nesselrode points to the great number of Russian students in German universities where they were aided, encouraged and cultivated in every way. He puts the number just before the war at 35,0OO.
 Count Nesselrode has now been completely ruined by the revolution, the lite property he had retained having been sacked, devastated and appropriated, yet he keeps his faith in a final sane outcome of the revo- lution and he considers 1t a great fault for the nations of the Entente to base their attitude toward Russia any other hypoth eSiS.
