Red Cross Notes

It ain't the gems nor orna-
 ment, nor funds that they
 can pay,
 But the close cooperation that
 makes them win the day; It ain't the individual, nor the
 army as a whole, But the everlasting teamwork
 of every bloomin' soul,
 -Rudyard Kipling. Teamwork is the order of the day and everlasting teamwork" is the thing that will enable the Brinkley Red Cross to reach the high standard of work and ser vice to which we are all dedicat- ed.
 The work is going on in the work room and the out put in- creasing and up to the standard. Our knitting has not yet reach ed the standard in every instance but is improving. New direc- tions for sweaters will be given out at Red Cross Rooms. No KNOTS is the order, and all are asked to cooperate in eliminat- ing same from Monroe county knitting. Hereafter knitters will be expected to report on garments at least once a month. We are fortunate indeed to have Mrs. Edmond F. Brown of St. Louis speak to us on Thurs day evening. She has been speaking to crowded houses else where.

Ex-Brinkley Man Marries
 in California.
Redlands, Calif., 4-2-18.

On the l7th of March every one in the little city or Redlands was asked to wear pansy as mute tribute to the work of the Smiley Brothers in the making of Redlands. AS the pansy was the favorite flo yer of the Patron Saints" it has been the custom j, of the people of the city, since their passing away, to wear this flower on the anniversary of the Smiley's birth. The city park department furnished the pansles and as the 17th came on Sunday this year, it was said that over 5000 flowers were distributed, and mostly at the different churches.
 It was on the morning of the 2Oth of March, that in company with friend, I took a train on the Santa Fe Railroad and journed to San Diego. It was. Liberty" day with the soldier boys and there were crowds and companies of them to be seen wherever we went in the city. The following morning we took a street car and went to the bay where we crossed on a nice steam-ferry boat over to Coronado where we saw many airships sailing around. In fact we could see them while we were on the boat crossing the bay. We were near one of the AVla- tion fields, and such a roaring and whirring we had never heard before. They would rise and fly out over the water some of them going so high you could hardly see them. You could see from six to twelve up at the same time, some were rising and some lighting and all at a dis tance looked like huge birds.
 Our train, going and coming, passed near the oceans edge where we could see the breakers rushing the white spray out on to the near shore. A big ocean steamer was unloading at one of the piers, a short distance from our depot, when we were ready to take the train for home on the Fist. We found vegeta- tion in the San Diego region ahead of us, about Redlands, putting on it's spring clothes.
 My present habitat" is near the foothills of a nearby range of mountains and is about four miles from the post office in Red- lands. The house faces the north and we look over a valley of several thousand acres of orange trees that are just now bursting into bloom. From the house is a gradual slope down. down, till you approach the base of the mountains, a rim of which streches from west to east where they rise to a height sufficient to turn the rain into snow for most of the winter, therefore they have been white-capped for quite while. The orange grow CTS have nearly finished picking the navel variety but still have the valencia oranges to pick which do not generally ripen till summer. They now have men pruning the trees while others are blowing, or disking the vetch, or other cover crops as a fertilizer.
 When. oh when. will the Kaiser be brought to his knees so that our Sammies may return home? Who knows?

HOLLAND PLACES \
EMBARGO ON. EAST 81
INDIES EXPORTS

Washington, April 26.-Holland has
placed an embargo on the expectation
from the Dutch East Indies Of tin,
tin ore, cinchona bark. quinine, qui-
nine salts and kapok, all of which are
needed In large quantities by the
United States for war purposes. .
The United States is almost conf
pletely dependent for tin on the out
side world. Production in this coun-
try last year amounted to only thir-
teen one-hundrcdths Of n per cent
of the domestic consumptio. As the
American deposits are only periodic
ally productive, there is little hope
that the supply can be increased ma
terially. 1t is probable that Bolivia
now will be looked to for a supply.
Official notification Of the embargo,
effective April %. was received today
and has caused much perturbation.
In some quarters it was suggested the
measure was in retaliation for the
American requisitioning Of Dutch
ships. Elsewhere it was thought to
have been prompted by the critical
situation in which Holland finds her
self with Germany.
h embargo on tin and tin ore will
prove especially embarrassing to 4. the
United States. Supplies needed for
munitions and food. preservation were
expected to come from the Dutch
East Indies.

Fire To Inkster Grain
Elevator Tuesday Night

Hay Went Up in Flamcs-No>
Grain in Elevator.

Inkster, N. d., April 26.-The Car
gill elevator burned to the ground last
night at 10 o'clock, the fire being of
incendiary origin. A man by the
name of O'Brien has been arrested
and charged with the crime and is
this afternoon being taken to Grand
Forks to be lodged in the county jail.
The elevator was apparently put
afire by the use of kerosene. \ on ac-
count of the strong wind it was i'm
possible for the fire department to
ave the building. Fifteen tors Of
hay. a mile and a half south of town.
was put to fire by sparks carried by
the wind.
O'Brien's actions, during the fire
and at other times. it is alleged, were
rather suspicious and he was imme-
diately arrested. 1t was said this
afternoon that. he had practically adj
mitted to the local police that he was
responsible for the fire. O'Brien came
from Orr about a month ago and has
been engaged on the section here. His
mother is at present in Inkster.
There was no grain in the elevator.
