In addition to this relief work, the cables state that the Red Cross Medical or ganization is attending hundreds of wounded Czech0- Sloyak soldiers who have reached Nladivostok after weeks of the most desperate fighting against the pro-German forces.
 The condition of the refugees, who were found living in tents and freight cars along the Chinese Eastern Rail- way west Of Harbin. was pitiabie. A ma jority of them are farmers. though there are many coal miners and rail way employees in the number, people who were driven from their homes by the Bolsheviki. and some German and Austrian war prisoners.
 The work of administering 10 the wounded Czecho- Sloyak fighters, who steadfastly refused to recognize the Bolsheyiki- German peace, and reliey- ing the distress of the homeless civil ians was started the moment their plight was brought to the attention of the American Red Cross The relief work was directed by Charles k Mo Ser. American consul and head of the Red Cross chapter at Harbin. Ameri. can Red Cross chapters at Tokyo and Shanghai also gave valuable aid. While waiting for instructions from America they went ahead and raised funds in Hladiyostok which provided temporary relief for both soldiers and civilians

MANsF1ELD's FUTURE

amount OF lead and zinc which lies
at her 9oor, Mansfield is fast becom-
ing real live and hustling city.
Every train brings newcomers, some
to inspect the mines, some to start
new businesses and others to work in
the town and mining fields.
The faith of one man, A. T. Friend,
is beng rewarded in a way surpris-
III. even to him. The great coopern-
ton being displayed is indeed graft
iyiny to every one concerned and i'll
s.rc, the men behind the great lead
and zine industry success III their
great enterprise.
Mansfield is growing-and is grow
ing fast. More houses are needed
now, more hotel accommodations are
needed; Office rooms, some OF which
have lain idle for months, have all
been rented, and will be decorated
and furnished by the different min
ing companies.
Mansfield is growing.
There is one important fact, how
ever, which must be placed before the
Mansfield citizens, and especially
those who have rental property.
These citizens must profit by the mis-
takes made by other mining and oil
towns IN Missouri and Oklahoma.
DON'T RAISE YOUR RENT TO
A PROIIBITIVE FIGURE. 1t is
true that the mining operators might
be able TO pay the high prices-but
and who works in the. field, CAN
the man who brings his family here,
NOT. lie must have prices on rents
and merchandise which will be con
sistcnt with his scale OF wages. He
must be able to LIVE and not mere
ly to exist, and with these conditions
he will become one OF your hest boos-
ters.
The merchant must have reason
able rent so he can still sell his iner-
chandisc to his customers at a fair
profit. He likewise will become one
of Mansltcld's S best boosters.
Mansfield now has her opportuni-
ty to become a hustling city OF 5000
population before many months. 1t
is not impossible.
But to get this population-to
make this city good to live in, one
which will attract the wage-earner
os well us the millionaire, every sin
gle person here will need to co-Ope-
rate with each othcr-takc and give
advicc--but above all COOPERATE.
The mining interests which have
come to Mansfield, are here to stay.
The men connected with these COM
pnnics are going to bring their fam
lies here. II they can not find
homes. they will build them. Their
interests are now your interests, Mr..
Mansfield citizen, and remember they
are here 10 help you, as an individual,
and as a city in the whole.
Mansfield is getting more public
ty at the present time than any other
city in the United States. Daily,
hundreds of articles arc sent from
Mansfield to papers all over the
country. Your own local paper is
is mailed out to hundrcds--and thous-
ands-of persons each wcck-and
these biz Mansfield boosters--the
mining mcn-arc doing it.
To Mansfield would say this:
Cooperate with these who arc work
ING so lard for your city and the
greatest lead and zine district i'll the
United Statcs--thc Mansfield Dis.
trict-Mothcr of Them All'--work
WITH them aud not against them
If Won cant boost---DON " knock
You will profit much and have much
satisfaction in knowing you were one
who assisted in making this Il great
city.
