QUAY COUNTY RED CROSS
DOING UTMOST FOR BOYS

The guy who looks in upon a COM
pany of one hundred noble women
in action, sewing, knitting, cutting
and packing Red Cross supplies for
the boys in the service of the coun-
try and talking, should never again
be possessed of the hallucination that
mother is not capable of casting a
ballot for the best interests of her
boy and the country. A Red Gross
woman is certainly a good citizen and
a patriot and is as capable of hand
ling the ballot as the hombre who
barters it for a dollar bill or another
lap of suds. The noise of cannon
and the burst of she'll are not, may
be, as compatible with the nervous
organism Of a woman as to some Of
the hardened bayonet thrusters, but
the ballast is there that makes the
division commander and that puts
the soldier over the top.
The editor of the American is con-
WINGED that the women of Tucumcari
are doing their part in the war in
which we r engaged and that our
boys will remember them and their
work when they meet the enemy at
the front.-Tucurrcari American.

THE GOVERNORS

Some time ago the Committee on
Public Information asked Governor
w. E. Lindsey for an expression of
his views upon the patriotic duties
of American citizens. The plan Of
the Committee was to use Governor

increase patriotism throughout the
nation. The statement elected high
praise from the Commit ee, which
wrote through L. A. Brown, director
of publicity, as follows:
am very grateful for your
splendid patriotic message. 1t is
notable for its clarity and ter

IN STRIKES

S rike troubles in the German EN-
pire? Possibly. But do not be too
much elated over the troubles, as
they have been reported. 1t ought
to be held as significant that we
were able to get such full reports
on the disturbances. Make sure that
Berlin was willing for US to have all
the reports which we did receive.
Go even further and depend upon it
that Berlin was eager for us to have
the reports. Now, finally, don't eve
overlook this vital point: Reports
which Berlin puts out r for the
benefit of the German Imperial Gov.
eminent, and not for the benefit of
