JUNIOR RED CROSS
Gladys Giles

The refugee work that is being done by the Junior Red Cross is now showing fine results. The layettes which they are making will help a number of little war babies in France Just a few more garments remain to be finished up and than the Junior Red Cross will be able to show to Cordova some very fine work.
 The layettes consist of two little outing-flannel dresses trimmed with fancy stitching, a little French fan mel jacket, 2 pairs of bootees, ? wrap ping blankets of French flannel, 3 muslin jackets, three flannel jack cts, and a darling little blue cape made just like Little Red Riding Hoods. With these articles of cloth ing a bar of toilet soap, talcum pow der, and a package of safety pins will be put into a bag with the layettes
 Besides this work which the girls
 
 cutting gun-wipers and little clippings of cloth which will be made into pill lows. Many of the children are knit ting six-inch squares of varicolored yarn. These squares are to be sewed together to make warm blankets for the "boys in France" Some indus trious girls are knitting scarfs and socks, the former being for old peo- pie and not soldiers.
 Some interesting hours have been taken up by the work which is being put on some scrap books for the "boys over there" Jokes and car toons are cut out of magazines and put into them. These scrap books are just like the ones your great grandmothers made while sitting by the grate in the evening listening to weird tales of witches.

HAVE THEIR OWN WAR

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 9. Booze smugglers and whiskey runners in Memphis vicinity have become real bad men, They have been furnish ing the United States marshals with many thrills and the odds are that a quantity of hot lead will be spilled in the very near future.
 Although but year ago the boot leggers never dreamed of fight, Unit ed States marshals today go armed with automatic shotguns, far shooting rifles and revolvers of heavy calibre. They have been forced to do it in de fense of their lives.
 Week by week the gangsters who sell booze have become more danger our. They have developed into a class of dare-devils, far more dangerous to hunt than the bucolic moonshiner in his mountain lair
 Of the booze-running gangs, two are especially dangerous. One of these operates by use of "stick-up" tactics. On two notable instances this gang impersonated United States marshals and bagged large quantities of booze from other bootleggers.

PUBLIC SCHOOL WORK
 TOLD OF BY PUPILS
THRIFT STAMP CONTEST
F. Edna Thawley

The schools of Alaska are having a very exciting contest. On Febru- ary 15 all the schools of the territory entered a contest in which the child ren are to buy Thrift Stamps and War Stamps. The money must be earned, not given them for doing nothing in return. The school that has the largest sum of money invest ed in these Government Loans will have pennant awarded them. To create more enthusiasm in our school the pupils have been divided into two equal teams, the Blues and the Reds The pupils elected two captains, Frances Fraisure as captain of the Blues and Elwell Thawley as captain of the Reds. The captains take an account of the money their pupils have. Each captain chooses his own team They have made clocks, one for each room and each morning they are moved ahead by the captains, if any of their team have gotten any stamps. The teams have agreed that the side that loses will give a picnic for the side that wins, at the end of the term. There are only eight more | days before this contest closes and all the children have given up going to the show and buying candy for these remaining days and are going to buy Thrift Stamps instead At present Elwells team is ahead and the two together have about seven hundred and fifty dollars investes1n in these stamps. The children are very patriotic to give up their pleasures these eight days; therefore we hope all the parents will help their child ren to keep their promise.

WHY SHOULD WE "HooVERlzE?"

NSLSNIcNS hOSSNOS
 The war is on in full force now. We have joined England and her allies ''to make the world safe for demo- cracy." We must show that We are in every way with our government in it's declaration of war upon Germany Our young men must go and we must stand behind them to give them all the help we can. We are millions of miles away, but in this age of steam ships and railroads even we can do our bit, Our appetites are hard to conquer; they say man will do any thing for his stomach. But here is a time when little self sacrifice on our part will help cur boys in France will help to kill the Kaiser" and will help the world to overthrow auto cracy and make 1t safe for universal democracy. It has always been said that the United States is wasteful nation Before the war we had al ways had plenty, no one suffered be- cause of our waste: but now things have changed; everything we waste l takes so much off from what we send to our allies, takes so much away from the poor, starving people in Bel gium, in France, and so much from the boys Somewhere in France" So now when we sit down to eat and
