RED CROSS WEEK.

The coming week marks another epoch ill the plans of those Nno are supporting the young men Of the na Son doing battle for freedom, for country, for future generations.
 4 large sum is to be raised in thi- country for support of the Red Cross Al first il used to be timely 10 out line the work of this great orsani- zation That Is no longer necessary The citizen who does not now know the work being done by this organi zation don't want to know, and there is no further use trying to educate him.
 There is merely one question now concerning any war work whether it be the Red Cross, or the Liberty bonds, or what not. That question Is an equitable proportioning 0f the work so that the country will carry the burden in proportion to its ability
 Hot Springs has been given the tasb of raising $l8,G00 for this work nnN The sum may seem large al first, but ! is not. There are perhaps more thaL IS. 000 people in city and county Of course a lot of these are children < lot of them will never be reached Al. never fall into line on such 2 call.
 Monday committees will go out or the work They will not expect any body to give more than their propor- tion, and they will not expect any body to give less The committeeman are giving, and also are deyotins thei time Meet them with q smile, anC give what you think is right. and sot will have done your part.
 Hot Springs has a record for Wa support of @hch we are proud Tht old resort has been there with bell on at every call The men who d' things for the city have been al th' helm. They have put things over il good shape and they want this $lS.0o' 10 be raised as quickly as possible s, the report can go in to headquarter.
 Make your donations Monday Convenient Try to be reached cer tainly by Tuesday Don't let the worl drag. We have 10 raise the money and the best way to get this done I to enter into the spirit of the worl and finish it up forthwith We ough 10 raise this fund in the same spiri that we expect our boys 10 go al thel work in France

CONCERNING ACCIDENT, BUT
SHELLMAN REPORT SAYS LIEU
TENANT AND STUDENT WERE
BOTH HURT SERIOUSLY.

SHELLMAN, Ga, August 8.-While
making landing here yesterday one
of the aeroplanes from Souther Field
fell q distance of 200 feet, complete
ly demolishing the machine, both
aVlators, Lieutenant Russell and Ca
Diet O'Connor, being seriously, but not
fatally injured. They were given first
aid by Mrs Dunn. Miss Rochell Nei-
son and Miss Evelyn Chittenden, later
being carried to the Office of a physi-
clan, where their injuries were given
attention until the arrival of the am
bulance and a surgeon from Souther
Field.
An officer from Souther Field, who
examined the plane. made a state
ment that the accident was apparent
~ caused by the tan breaking off,
causing it to spin and turn turtle.
An old negro nanny, Charlotte
Speer, was the first one to reach the
plane after the accident, taking one
of the injured men in her arms and
carrying him considerable distance
to an automobile.
Everything possible was done for
the injured aviators until the arrival
of the ambulance. which carried
them back to camp. These planes
visit Shellman almost daily and this
is the first accident of any kind to
occur here so far.

telling Mrs Harris of the wounding of

Private Harris was in pill box"

Four of the men were horribly man
