An Appeal for Workers

An allotment of women's house gowns, as many as can be made from 435 yards of material, has been re ceived by the chapter and has been rejected Why? This is the reason. There are not enough workers. \ few people have done vast amount of work. and it's quality has been praised without stint, but there are dozens and dozens of women in Cor dova who have done little or no work
 Women of Cordova, you are not lazy. nor selfish. nor cruel You just don't think. You are giving no tune tn the Red Cross compared to what you give to selfish amusements Hut the time has com" when, for the ~ll vation Of your souls. you must th,nk.

 One Sidc.-''Iierc is an example of patriotism that should put all tight wads to shame. Myron Cody served three years fighting for the flag in the Philippines.

He needed every cent he earned When the call came for volunteers Cody cried bccau5c h" was not ahl" to "n- list But he worked steadier, and when the Third Liberty loan call came Cody dug up his last cent and Obli- gated himGelf for more to buy q thou sand dollar bond. When the Red Cross drive started h" was fiat broke worse than broke. Did he make cX cuses? Not Cody. He led his saddle pony to the Ferry school house and had it auctioned of for the Red Cross fund Is il any wonder that our auC. tion was a success? Hats off to My. ron Cody,-( (Signedl James NJ. Lynch Chairman Toroda Precinct. Red Cross Drive"
 The Other Side-"Recently a calf was raffled in Orient for the benefit of the Red Cross. A travelling sales man who happened to be in Orient at the time was induced to purchase a ticket for the raftle. He demurred lt first. but finally consented to pur- chase, as it would cost him but l5 cents. He went his way. The raftIo was held that night and the travelling man won the calf He was reached hy telephone and asked what disposi, tion should be made of his property.
