There are thousands Of boys from
the backwoOds Of Maine to the ranches
OF California, and from the Everglades
ofeFlorida to the plains Of the great
Northwest, who have not Joined the

ilnpracticability of organizing troops
In their home towns. For such boys
and only such boys-who find II impos-
sible to be active members Of troops,
provisions have been made for enroll.
ing them as Pioneer Scouts.

THE RED Cross ROLL CALL

. When "the greatest mother in
. the world" calls the roll the
. week Of December 1913 the
. hope Of the American Red Cross
. is that the answer for the entire
. American people will be: "All
. present, or accounted for"
. It will be the occasion for
. 100000 adults and 100000
. children to renew their member
. ship and for all others to Join.
. One happy slogan Of the roll call
. announces that "all you need Is
. heart and q dollar"
. Why does the Red Cross Mt
. Christmas conduct a member
. ship campaign? Because it unites
. the people In an intimate way
. with the Organization they. have
. supported 50 magnificently. In
. other countries one Of the most
. impressive things about the
. American Red Cross IL the size
. Of its membership, attesting
. truly popular approval.
Q This Christmas, when our
. country II out of the deep waters
. Of the war, every dollar paid for
. an annual membership in the
. Red Cross will be a direct
. Christmas gift to our land, air
. and sea forces and to those who
. have felt the sting Of war In a
. way that we In this country
. have not experienced. The min.
. istrations Of the Red Cross will
. be as good a substitute for
. Christmas at home as can be
. furnished under the clrcum-
. stances.
Q The women of America, see
. Ing In the Red Cross an extern
. sion upon a universal scale Of
. the mothering instinct, will be
. quick to answer Here" to the
Q roll call. because service and
. sacrifice are womanly qualities
. and they are Red Cross quail
. ties.
President Wilson, as president
. Of tho American Red Cross,
. says: II summon you to the
. comradeship

SCOUTS AID THE posrmEM.

Wheeling boy scouts we're given an
opportunity to aid Uncle Sam during
Christmas holidays in manner which
has never been resorted to there be-
fore. The scouts went out on the
trucks delivering parcel post packages
and aided the driver in disposing Of his
load.
This enabled the employees Of the
post Office to prevent the congestion
that has occurred In the past. The
scouts efforts were both successful

mail distribution, and In all cases the
boys have been found absolutely hon

War Saving Stamps
best of Them All
The child with pure and generous
heart gives its all.
The poor Is well - the rich are will
ing donaters. It il 4 genuine love-
feast.
All for the dear boys over there, and
how their hearts must rejoice to
know that baby, too, is in the work
for liberty, and owns bond
We are in receipt of the following
telegram from Secretary of War Nc
Adoo:
Il most earnestly urge upon you
that your organization make every
possible effort to-the end that pledges
for the purchase of War Savings
Stamps be fulfilled before the close of
the year. The governments none
tary requirements were never great
er nor more pressing than they are
today. Expenditures for November
were greater than in any similar per-
iod. These expenditures growing
out Of the war must be met by Dor
rowing from the people and their mag
nificent response heretofore to the
governments requirements makes me
confident that they will not fail to
continue their support to the end that
all payments resulting from war me-
cessities will be promptly met. Much
repnains to be done. Our brave
troops must be maintained and paid
until their work is fully accomplished
and they are returned to their homes
This is not a time for US to relax
our efforts and the treasury depart
ment is making plans for larger and
even more important work during the
coming year"

VOTE FOR HON. S. r. SELLS FOR
CONGRESS AUGUST FIRST.

We are now in the midst Of a great
crisis, q great worlds crisis. All Of
our boys and their lives are at stake,
our homes, our property, our ali is
now thrown into this great world
wide war, We must think III every
movement we make. we must work
in harmony, we must work for one
purpose, and to one end, and that il
to whip the kaiser and blot from the
map Of the world every vestige Of
kaiserism.
Do not swap horses in the middle
Of the stream and ever afterward be
sorry Of your rash act.
Vote for Congressman Sells and
your vote win be cast in the interest
Of all the boys now in this death
struggle. Congressman Sells has
been standing at his post Of duty sup
porting the President and all Of the
policies that win ultimately bring
victory and Testing peace to the world.
He has been at your nations capital
watching closely the best interests Of
YOUR sons; he knows their needs, he
knows their whereabouts, he has as
sisted hundreds Of them in their ef-
forts TO get into the service, and these
soys, if they could speak to you on
election day, would say in stentorian
zones, vote for him, return him to
his post Of duty; we have depended
III him thus far, and we viii have to
depend on him in the future.
This, my countrymen, is no wild
lream am trying to portray to you.
We are up against a real proposition
l proposition as above stated that
means our very existence in this
world; it means 50 much to all Of US
hat we should think well before we
lsk, then vote accordingly.
Let us say to the good people Of
Greene county that you have more
it stake than to follow the old slogan
If voting for a county man. You
re now confronted with a condition
If the world that you have never ex-
1erienced before. We therefore say,
ct county pride and let favorite sons
il home rest for the time, and think
II the boys "over there"
In this we are not appealing to
5our prejudice, nor are we appealing
. your pride, but we are appealing To
FOUR patriotism an dto your love fol-
-FOUR country and to your love for ali
he boys now locked In this death
truggle with the enemy.
Let the best experience and skin
We have continue until this dreadful
conflict is ended. Yea, let the men
Who have been standing at the helm
emain at their post of duty; let the
men who have thus far piloted and
yuided this war renal nat their posts
COR fear we make a mistake and bring
suffering and loss to the
,ause we are now engaged in.
Mr.. Sells has been tried and no
sharge Of disIoyalty, no charge Of
,hirking his duty can be brought
against him. He has stood by the
he has voted for all the
avs necessary to the successful car
,ying ON Of the war to the present
lime, and we see no reason now why |
ne should be snapped off for new
md untried man in the conduct Of |
The war
We therefore say vote for Mr.. Sells
md be sure Of making no mistake in
his present crisis.
