FOR
BASEBALL SCORES
RY @ ROGERS

Il Is a mighty good thing for Chicabo
that the census bureau isn't out gath
erlng population statistics now. For
Chicago, second Of American cities, each
day sees its citizens pack their trunks
and stream eastward and southeast
ward.
Chicago Is being depopulatedV cries
the Chicago Tribune. And Chicago bus
iness men are worrying.
Charles A. Munrow. Illinois director
OF the u. S. labor reserve, says more
than i25000 Chicago men have quit the
big cities by the lake to work in east
ern and southern war Industries, ship
yards, munitlon factories, coal mines,
and other Hun-defeating establishments.
Within three months 6000 men have
been sent to the governments high eX-
ploslves plant in West Virginia. The
employment service will take at least
$1,000 more men out Of Chicago within
the next six weeks.
It is estimated that Chicago will lose
over 100000 workers, mostly men, this
year. If they remain permanently they
will send for their families and thus
reduce Chicago's population by a million
or so. Should the drain extend over
the next two years, and IL may II the
war lasts, ChlcagO's 1920 census figure
may entltle her to third place IN the
list, Philadelphia, doomed by the war,
going into second.
This population loss does not take
into consideration Chicago boys who
have gone into army or navy, but only
workers who have left the city for en-
plOyment elsewhere.
In one small section Of Chicago a sur
Vey made showed 5000 vacant flats, 800
unoccupied houses and 1900 rooms for
rent. Other parts Of the city have about
the same proportion Of vacant dwelling
places. This has had the effect Of re-
ducing rentals, and now it is possible
10 get cheaper fats and houses In Chi
cago than in any other large city east
Of the Mississippi.
Chicago's dwindllng population Is due
20 Chicago's lack Of war work. Other
cities, east and south, are filled with

"The Sixty-ninth now goes into bat

Duffy's ideas. When. he received sew

crosses when they entered the trenches

Father Duffy never stayed behind
when the Goth went hiking, and I'd often
meet MIN on a country road, plodding

miles away. For the most part. the
men of the 69th had no complaints to
make, but on the score of shoes there
was deplorable inefficiency shown bv
the quartz masters department.
when the command started ON one
winter hike of between fortv and sixtv
kilometres some of the men went al
most without shoes-the soles were so
padly worn. 1T was as result of this
march that the feet of some of the
men were frozen, and they had to be
sent home. Some of the 69th's officers
were shifted for this.

BEN HILL RED CROSS WAR
FUND

The executive committee reports
that $3,50000 cash has been raised
and subscriptions which will be paid
in a day or two should give us S.
5000 for the total in this county. 1t
is earnestly desired by the central
committee for the county that all
committees, rural and city, extend
their time and continue their efforts
and bring in enough to make the
round sum of four thousand dollars
for Ben Hill county.
The policy of the committee for this
county has been not to call on any
one person for too large amount but
to give everybody, young and old,
black and white, an opportunity to
donate into the fund after a thorough
educational campaign has been waged
throughout the territory so that all
may understand just where this Red
Cross money goes and the urgency of
the need of the same.
General Pershing has cabled that
more OF our boys are in the war fight
ing at present than we thought for
III February when the estimate was
made for this drive and he urges that
we over-subscribe heavily, and for
this reason the executive committee
desires that all committees continue
their efforts to raise the balance up to
four thousand dollars.
A statement will be published in a
few days as soon as final efforts have
been reported, showing the sources
from which the fund has been raised.
