Loans to StOckmen.

The War Finance Corporation of the Treasury Department will make loans, in exceptional cases, directly and without the intervention of banks, to livestock raisers, whose industry has been classified as one necessary or contributory to the prosecution of the war.
 These loans are to be made under section 9 of the War Finance Corpora tion act, and the loans will be made to individuals, firms, and corporations whose principal business is the rais- ing of livestock, which includes cat tie, goats, sheep, and hogs.
 For the present only the Federal Reserve banks of Kansas City and Dallas are designated as agencies to execute these loans, which are to be made to livestock raisers who are ex- periencing great difficulty in their op- erations owing to drought conditions, though cattlemen from other districts are not excluded from the benefit of section 9.

BRANDING CATTLE
 BENEFIT RED CROSS

President Wilson has expressed the hope that all Red Cross workers with in the new draft ages-18 to 45--will continue to render service unless and until specifically called to other and more important duty" In answer to a letter from Henry P. Davison, chair man of the Red Cross War Council, in which the effect of the proposed new draft ages upon the Red Cross personnel was set forth, the President embodied the above statement, add ing: AS the American Red Cross is such an important auxiliary to our armed forces and is also extending relief not only to our people at home, but to the peoples of the nations as- sociated with us who are suffering as result of the war, hope that every man connected with the work either at home or abroad will have full ap- preciation of it's importance, etc."
 The Red Cross has received orders from Paris headquarters to enroll 30O women motor drivers for overseas service. The Pacific division IS asked to furnish quota of 25 of this num- Der and applications are being re- ceived at the bureau of personnel in division headquarters, Flood building, San Francisco. The mere knowledge of driving does not qualify applicants for this service. Mechanical knowl- edge, driving tests, physical examina- tions, general type and adaptability to military routine are carefully consid- cred, together with licenses. In addi- tion to this, training in first aid is necessary. Various chapters through out the Pacific division are organizing motor corps as an adjunct to thel- local service.
 Cattlemen with large herds on the western range are preparing to reap rich reward for the Red Cross the coming winter. Practically every range has few heifers branded ARC" and these are being fattened for the January stock show in Denver. After receiving the inevitable blue ribbons these ARC heifers will prob ably be sold and resold many times. The former governor of Colorado, Elias M. Ammons, predicts that hun dreds of thousands of dollars will be realized for the Red Cross through this movement. Many stockmen have announced their intention of keepir
 few ARC branded calves for this purpose throughout the war period.

BAPTIST CHURCH REVIVAL.
REV. E. HEZ SVEN
Starting Monday, November 18th
Every Night at Eight O'clock.

Pastor Evangelist E. Hez Sven has
been preaching to many people for
many years in Washington, d. c., and
has held successful meetings in the
States. He prizes the memory of a
prayer offered for him in London by
the great Sturgeon: MAY he bring
thousands of souls to the feet of the
Savior and keep them there" His lee
lures have been commended, but he
prefers to preach the old gospel. DR..
John A. Broadus said: "He is man
of talents, energy and devotion.
The religious press describes him as
an evangelist of remarkable power,
original, humorous, pathetic, sound
lucid and interesting; and that his
ability to tell story is almost unsur-
passed. John Clark Ridpath, the his
torian, wrote that he was a good
speaker, having superior graces of de-
livery, as well as directness and force.
He has travelled extensively and made
three foreign tours, and a visit to
Egypt, the Holy Lard, Turkey and
Greece.
E. Hez Sven is also q writer of
Gospel songs and tunes, and thirty
nine of his productions nave just been
issued in special elton by well
known publishers. Fanny Crosby
says they are particularly adapted to
evangelistic services, and others con-
slider both the word and music strik-
ingly original

GOV. C0RNWELL ASKS HELP FOR
! JEMISH RELIEF.

There are three million of people OF
the Jewish race in the war zone OF
Europe in need of help. Their suffer
ing and distress make a touching
appeal to the people of America.
American Jews have always been lib
eral in charities toward suffering
peoples of other races, and now they
are asking for help in return.
Mr.. NJ. Palmbaum, of Charles Town
is chairman of the organization
named in this county to raise funds for
this cause. Remittances may be sent
to him.
Governor Cornwell has issued the
following proclamation urging the
people of West Virginia to aid in con
tributing funds for them:
10 the People of West Virginia:
Within the war zones of Europe are
5000, 000stricken Jews.
The Jews have suffered for'centuries
but these 100000 have undergone
torture for four years-during the
war
They are crying to America for aid.
The Jewish people in the United
States have given for the aid of their
people in the war zone almost to the
limit. They have likewise given to all
other charities. They should not be
left alone in their struggle to save and
protect 100000 members of their
family in the war zone.
All our people should aid.
A thrill has gone throughout Chris
tendon that Jerusalem and the Holy
Land have been redeemed by an En-
glish army
Let us now help save the helpless
Jews in all war zones.
October 20, 80 and 81 have been set
as Jewish Relief Days in West Vir-
ginia, and respectfully urge upon the
people of the State tina. they con
tribute to this most worthy cause and
aid the people in this country, who are
trying to save their kinsmen abroad
people who are among our most loyal
and useful citizens, our Jewish citizens
Given under my hand, at the Capitol
of the State, this the ninth day of
October, in the year of our Lord one
thousand nine hundred and eighteen,
and of the State the ffty-sixth
