BENEFIT SOON.
Red Cross Class Will Raise Funds for
Local Branch.


Red Cross Class No. of which Miss
Harriet Erwin is president, met Tues
day evening and in view of the fact
that the Sank Centre branch is in dire
need of funds with which to carry on
their work, decided to put on NOV
ing picture show in the near future,
the entire proceeds of which is to go
to the local branch. A committee was
appointed to interview Manager Du-
Beau of the Caughren theatre and get
a booking for "The Man Without a
Country" if possible. Mr.. DuBeau has
written for this film and the class
hope to be able to present it to the
public in short time. If the film is
available, Sank Centre may rest as
sured that it will be good one. saThe
Man Without Country" the story of
which everyone knows, is one of the
great films of the present time. It is
story appropriate to these times
OF war and one which is being shown
all over the country. Realizing that
the constant demands for money are
becoming almost too much, the class
voted to make the price as reasonable
as possible, in order to meet expenses
and still be able to turn over a neat
sum to the Red Cross. They are as
sured that Sank Centre and the sur

War Stamp Sale Driue
Will Be Inaugurrted
In Sank Centre Soon

George Fish, chairman of the sales
committee for War Savings Stamps in
this territory, reported the sale of
stamps up to Wednesday, Feb. 13, to
aggregate $5,S71.34. While this ap-
pears to be a rather discouraging re-
port when compared with that of 9TH
er towns, it must be remembered that
no drive has been thus far instituted
and the purchase of stamps has been
volunteered. Plans are now on foot
for sales campaign which will be
announced later. It was thought best
to delay the drive for awhile on &C.
count of the numerous other demands
and requests for money which are be-
ing made. There is no question that
the report of something over $4,000
will remain the same long. Sank Cen
tire isn't made that way and the show
ing will be as good as that of the next
town in due time.
The Todd county papers last week
were full of the success of their War
Savings Stamps campaign. Todd
county has certainly "gone over the
top" and at the head Of them all is
Little Sank. The little village is en-
joying boom which has made it and
entire countryside alive with enthus-
iasm. The way they have handled all
patriotic undertakings is worthy OF
the highest commendation. Their
quota was $4,000 and thus far they
have reported $17,310. Other villages
and townships are doing almost as
well. Following is the reports up to
Feb. 9, for Todd county:

The report of the secretary showed
that the year had been very successful
both financially and socially. An
election was held which resulted in the
installation of the following officers:
President, Mrs. ]. B. Perkins; Vice
Pres. Mrs. Alex Jameson; Secretary,
Miss Daisy Bixby; Treasurer, Mrs.
John McGibbon.
COMING AS A COMPLETE SUR
prise to his friends was the marriage
on Sunday of this week of Roy Coyle,
son Of Mr.. and Mrs. J. F. Coyle of
this city, to Amanda May Allan of
Waverley, Iowa. Mr.. Coyle left the
early part of. last week for Iowa, to
all outward appearances, for a visit,
and astonished his friends when he re-
turned Monday night with bride. Mr..
and Mrs. Coyle have gone to house
keeping on his farm at the outskirts
of the city and are at home to their
friends. Both are well known as the
groom has always lived here and the
bride, who is the sister of Fl. G. Sohle,
has visited in the city several times.

bers of the Junior and Senior build
ings of the public schools. This
movement has been agitated for some
time, but not until recently has it
been possible to organize. The work
is outlined by the Red Cross and
there are many projects which may be
carried out. Each grade will do the
work best suited to its qualifications.
For instance, the lower grades will
make picture books, ETC., for the
Belgian and French children, the boys
OF the upper rooms will collect maya
zines for the soldiers, there will be
classes in knitting and sewing. One
of the first articles to be made will be
the pillows which are used on stretch
ers. These are 16x20 and made of I'M
bleached muslin and filled with any
thing soft. These pillows are in great
demand.
The price of membership to the
Junior Red Cross is but rs cents. This
price sho1ld make it possible for
every child to be a member and it is
u safe guess that those who arc un-
able to get the money at home will
earn it. One who has earned the
price of membership, has the right
to be just that more proud of it. The
Junior league work as an auxiliary of
the Sank Centre branch and Mrs. F.
W. Sprague has been chosen as a re-
preventative from the branch and will
work with them. The executive
committee are Supt. Aygarn, Misses
Mosford, Uhrene and Whitmore and
MIR. Schwartz. They will see that the
work progresses in accordance with
the demands of the organization.
There is no reason why the younger
generations should not have as much a
share in the winning of this war as
their elders. The victory which will
mean the supremacy of democracy is
going to be of greater benefit to them
in the years to come than to those
who thus far have borne the create,
Burden. The young people from the
Senior high school down to the Kind.
ergarten are full of enthusiasm and
their eagerness to do all in their
power is what will make the Junior
Red Cross a success. AS soon as the
work is under way, the Herald will
take pleasure in reporting results
from time to time.

lectures, concerts, theatrical and
vaudeville, free.
Every one should feel willing to in
vest a dollar or more in this good
cause Our government has built and
equipped theatres in each of the six
teen .cantOnments in the country, and
the proceeds from the sale of these
books will be used to procure the best
talent for entertainments for the sol

GAMERS APPEAL TO FARMERS

AT the annual meeting of the Tri
State Packers Association held in
Philadelphia, January 23rd and oath.
1918, the following resolutions were
passed. and in order that the widest
publicity might be given to the matter
so that the growers of canning crops
in Maryland, Delaware and New Jer-
sey might understand the cordial spi-
rit of cooperation in which the Can
ners wished to handle this matter
with the growers, ii was suggested
that as a matter of public interest
that the County papers throughout
the section interested be requested to
give these resolutions generous dis
play in their issues and we trust that
the press will respond to this request
in the most public spirited manner.
RESOLVED, That in view of the
extreme need of the production of the
greatest amount of food possible in
this country, not only for the Army
and Navy and our people at home but
for the Allies as we'll, that we urge
upon the Government, wherever pos
sible, that those engaged in agricultu-
raj and food industries as well as the
labor necessary thereto, be relieved
from military service.
RESOLVED, That since the slogan
of the day is Food will win the War"
and in order that the Boys over
There" and those dependent upon us
here may be furnished with a plenti-
full supply of canned goods, we call
upon the farmers of the Tri-States to
cooperate with us by growing the
greatest acreage possible of sugar
corn, peas and tomatoes at prices
which, while literally rewarding the
farmer and in keeping with present /
prices for other farm products, will
yet patriotically help to decrease the (
high cost of living and tighten the al
ready "heavy burden" for our people |
at home and our Allies abroad and in 1
this patriotic effort both farmer and /
Gamer must cooperate with the ut (
most enthusiasm and mutual good |
will.
