Help the Red Cross

Beginning with Friday, March the 18th, we will give
all our customers an opportunity to contribute to the RED
CROSS FUND, and help win the war. Everyone knows
that this is one of the most serious periods in the history OF
our country. Our boys are going out from us, to fight our
battles in France and on the seas. The Red Cross is fol-
lowing them with their help, taking care of the sick and
wounded and ministering to the dying. WHAT ARE YOU
DOING TO HELP?
We propose to give you a chance to do at least a little
in this work, and when many do a little it will amount to
considerable.
We give CASH REGISTER CHECKS for all purchases,
and these checks have a value in various ways. We ex-
change them for yellow trading stamps and other prem
iums of various kinds. Beginning on Friday we will place
a box on our counter and customers can deposit these
checks in the box, and at stated times we will have some
member of the RED CROSS SOCIETY open the box, figure
up the amount of the sales thus made, and we will pay 1
per cent of the amount to the Treasurer of the Red Cross
Society of our City.
This may seem a small amount Individually but when
taken in total may amount to a considerable sum. In this
way all may do their bit to help the boys at the front.
Remember, this is in no way compulsory, it is simply up
to you. You can use the checks as heretofore and buy
yellow stamps or other premiums, or you can deposit them
in the box for the Red Cross-take your choice.

London, Sept. 4.-The British have
captured the city of Lens. The town
Of Queant also has been taken. Lens
was evacuated by the Germans, the
British moving in.
On a front of virtually fifty miles,
from just below Ypres, to a point near
Peronne, on the Somme. the German
armies are in retreat.
In their pass beyond the Drocourt-
Queant line the British have advanced
to point just to the west of Buissy,
two and one-half miles northeast of
Queant, and occupied Pronville, a mile
and half southeast of Queant.
More than ten thousand prisoners
were taken by the British Monday.
Additional prisoners were taken Tues
day.
The British also hold Doignies,
velu and Bertincourt and Rocquigny,
representing an advance to a maxi
mum depth of four miles on a twenty
mile front effected Tuesday,
In Flanders the British forces have
captured the town of Wulverghem, two
miles southeast Of KENNEL.
Contrary to expectations. the en-
envy has not reacted heavily with q
view to the recapture of the Queant-
Drocourt line, but has left the British
in undisturbed possession of 1t.
Gen. Mangin's advance Monday be-
tween the Allette and the Aisne riv-
ers is the most important so far. His
army has reached Bethancourt and
also has advanced a mile to the south
of Leuilly, about six miles north Of
Scissors.
The line now passes through the
plateau of Bethancourt to the north
of Crouy on the Observation-Disclosures
road. The center Of the plateau now
Is cleared of the enemy.
