 What Does Red Cross Do?
 What does the Red Cross do?" is a question asked repeatedly during every campaign far the Red Cross. The Washington headquarters answers: Red Cross work is not only the mak- ing of socks and bandages and sweat CTS, nor the providing of nurses, physi- sians and hospital supplies. It is the angle Of brotherhood. It stiffens the courage of civilians. It puts heart into the soldier allies by the comforting knowledge that their home affairs are going well. And every dollar put into the Red Cross makes not only for vic tory in this war but for everlasting peace between the great nations now fighting together in this war. To make enduring the peace gained by our guns-that the Red Cross job"
 Some Timely Comparisons
 One Liberty loan would last the Red Cross for 100 years and more.
 One hundred and fifty dollars a year for war in 1917-191s and one dollar for the Red Cross.
 Pershing said the biggest thing that America could do in helping to win the war was to hearten the French. The Red Cross has done this, and in addi- tion is helping our boys to win the fight that will make the home safe for you and me and the kiddies.

Press Decision
 Reversed When
 Case Is Heard

Judge Thomas was given hard nut to crack in posee court yes. terday afternoon. He was called upon to decide who was the ag- eressor in the spectacular Will Hams -Waymire bout of Tuesday evening. He compromised with himself by declaring both of the defendants guilty of the charge of fighting. And to show that there was no favoritism the magis- trate assessed fines of S25 each against Williams and Waymire, with the alternative of serving twenty five days in the city jail.
 When the case was called Perry Williams, who under the terms of a newspaper decision was the vic tor in the encounter of the night before, appeared with a delega- ton of friends and admirers. Clarence Waymire, minus a tooth and with ono eye still showing the effects of meeting up with a fist of the other man, dropped in with Judge Barnum as body guard and leqal adviser. The prelimin- aries were brief and the taking of testimony was begun in short order.
 That Williams had warned Waymire not to pay attention to the 16-year- old sister of Williams, was conceded. Williams charged that tho warning had gone unheed- ed and that he had proceeded to keep his promise to fix Clarence" Waymire denied that he had even spoken to the girl after being warned by her brother.
 Testimony indicated there had been a warm "scrummaee" in the negro club on South Second street and that Waymire after throwing a hammer at Williams proceeded" toward the Central fire station in order to avoid being struck by three pool balls which Williams in passing had picked up from table in the club.
 It took Judge Thomas very short time to announce that he considered each equally guilty. Wayn1ire filed notice of an appeal, while Williams paid his fine and said it was worth it.
