Of select men who have gone in form CT drafts from Clifton is Mrs. J. E. Irvine. It was she who took the ini- tiative in enlisting the services of others in furnishing former drafted men with comfort bags when they entrained previously, and it was this lady who never tires in her efforts to provide comforts for these boys who are leaving all that is dear to them when they go to the front to offer their lives for those who remain in security at home. While she is one of many. yet this bouquet for the living, the Copper Era hopes Is not amiss.

Red Cross Ladies Resume Work

in the Red Cross rooms was suspend ed for a day or two this week. This action was thought advisable by the Chapter officers, owing to the epidem- ic of la grippe, which prevails at Morenci and Metcalf, and which has developed in Clifton in certain fami- lies. While there was no request from the health authorities for the closing of the rooms, this action was taken to avoid the assembling of many together at that particular time, pending the development of the epidemic, but as there seems no like lihood of this city becoming victim the rooms are again open for work.

POPE URGES. PRAYERS
FOR END OF THE WAR
June 20 Set Aside for Supplication
by Clergy Throughout
the World.

By the Associated Press.
ROME, Thursday, May 10.-A special
prayer for the cessation Of the evils
tormenting humanity. during mass on
St. Peters day, Juno 30, is urged by
Pope Benedict in special message ad-
dressed to the whole world. "The end
of the fourth year approaches since
Europe is in conhagration," says the
message. During this time the vfo-
lence has never diminished. but In
creased, SO that we never have had mo-
ments Of relief from ever-increasing
Ills and Affections"
Continuing, the Pope says that, ow-
ing to the ministry intrusted to him
by Providence and animated by the
charity of Jesus Christ. nothing has
afiictions. The pontiff recalls the
words of King Jehosaphat, praying:
Lord God Of our Fathers. Thou art
God in heaven and rulest over all king
doms and nations.
"In Thy hand is strength and power:
none can resist Thee. We will cry to
Thee in our affiictions and Thou wilt
hear and save US. Our God, as we
know not what to do. we can only turn
our eyes to Thee" -,
God, who is the arbiter Of the will of
men and human events. and to trust His
mercifulness to put a speedy end to so
many storms. fastening peace and re-
storing among men a reign of 3ustice
and charity. Above everything God,
who is wrathful at such persistent sins,
must be placated. ~
Humble entreaties and persevering
prayers are the best means to do this.
He urges the clergy throughout the
world to divide the sacrifice for this
purpose on June 29. day sacred to the
apostles st. Peter and st. Paul. suppl
eating that the supreme desire Of all be
granted and that justice. be restored"
