RED CROSS SALE!ii
AI.GREATIISUCCESS
NEARLY TWO THOUSAND DOL
LARS RECEIVED FROM SALE
AND REFRESHMENTS

Moscow's Red Cross auction sale,
held Saturday, was decided success.
The auction sale alone brought IN
s1,356.5O, and other features, Includ-
ing refreshment stands, lunches, ice
cream and corrections, brought the
total receipts for the day to between
$1,000 and $4,000. In addition to this
there are several hundred dollars
worth of articles left over that were
not sold and these will be placed IN
a Liberty store" where they will be
sold at private sale. The store will
be under the management OF Red
Cross women, and it is hoped that
many more useful articles will be
donated to the Red Cross to be sold
at this sale.
The committee having the big auc-
ton sale in charge is grateful to all
who helped make the sale a success.
It asks the newspapers to express its
thanks to the farmers who con-

tributed so literally and bought SO
many of the articles, to every mer-
chant who contributed, to the press
for boosting the sale, to the splendid
men and women who devoted their
time and efforts in helping the great
cause, and especially to the women
who worked from early morning I'M
til late at night in the reffeshment
stands. Mrs. Hutton, who contrib
uted such splendid articles for the
press, and Mr.. Miller, who gave the
use of his building, are, extended a
lot of thanks.
Taken as a whole the sale exceeded
the expectations of those managing
it. Had the rain of Saturday night
and Sunday come Friday night it is
believed the receipts would have been
several hundred dollars more. A spe-
cial vote of thanks is extended to
George E. Walks, the able auctioneer,
for his fine work in getting good
prices for the property sold.
