A SCORE OF REASONS
FOR THE RED CROSS
1t Is Playing a Big Part in the
War for Democracy.

| What does 1t mean to you to know
| that your America Red Cross:
Is supporting $4,000 French children.
Sends supplies to 3,423 French mill
tary hospitals.
Provides 1000 French hospitals with
surgical dressings.
| Is operating 80 canteens at the front
line.
Is operating six other canteens at
French railway functions, serving
10000 French soldiers a day.
Operates a movable hospital in four
units accommodating 1000 men.
Is operating a children's refuge in one
part of the war zone, and in another
medical center and travelling dis
pensary, both capable of accommo-
dating more than 1000 children.
Has opened a long chain of ware
houses stocked with hospital sup
plies, food, soldiers comforts, to-
| bacco, blankets, ETC., all the way
from the seaboard to the Swiss
| frontier.
Has warehouse capacity for 100000
tons.
Has 400 motor cars and operat's seven
garages, making all repairs.
Has shipped 40 freight car loads Of
assorted supplies to Italy from
France within two weeks after it
began operating in the former coun-
try.
| Had a battery of motor ambulances
at the Piave front four days after
the United States declared war on
Austria.
Started a hundred different activities
in Italy at the time that nation was
In It's most critical condition.
Has established FIVE hospitals In Eng
land and operates workshop for
hospital supplies employing 1900
women.
And that 10000 cases of supplies
have been received at the Paris
headquarters of the American Red
Cross from your various chapters
scattered throughout the United
States.
What does all this mean to youf
And have told you but fraction Of
the work your Red Cross has done
and Is doing. 1t means that without
this ceaseless, heroic work of the
American Red Cross, we could never
win this war
Without your Red Cross thousands
in Rumania would have starved to
death.
Without your Red Cross Italy would
never have realized that powerful sup
port of the United States in the hour
of need.
Without your Red Cross thousands
of French soldiers now CALAMITY fight
ing for you at the front would have
died Of wounds, exposure and lack Of
food.
But now we must all redouble our
efforts and sacrifices for our Red Cross
because-a million mothers sons are
going to carry the stars and stripes
to the greatest victory God has ever
given to men fighting for honor and
liberty.
With the help of your Red Cross
your boy win win.

STATE PRESIDENT DOYLE's SIGNALS FOR
NEW A O. H ACTIVITY

State President T. j. Doyle, of the Ancient Order
of Hberians has issued circular to the several d
visions of the order in the state calling upon the
members for renewed effort to strengthen the ranks
of the organization. AS stimulus to the recruit
ing movement bonus of FIVE dollars is offered to
members for each new member secured between
Nov l, 19lS and July 1919, payable after the new
member has been initiated and paid three months
dues and assessments Such new members must.
OF course take policy in the Insurance Fund of the
order.
The activities of the world war have necessarily
suspended to large extent the work of maintaining
and building up such excellent organizations as the
A. O. H.. Mr.. Doyles appeal therefore is timely
and well-directed seems perhaps, little prosaic
now to turn our thoughts to the commonplace and
everyday routine of social activities after the period
OF excitement and trepidation through which we
have passed in the glorious and uplifting battle for
humanity But the finger of duty now points back
to our former tasks, though they may seem bit
tedious at first. The transition stage may be some
what dull, but we will make no mistake if we fol-
low the course indicated by our conscientious obliga
tons and prudent foresight.
President Doyle sounds the call of attention to
the more or less neglected concerns of our activities
in the time of peace It is signal that we must now
revert to the old work. and with renewed energies,
to make up the deficit of the war period

THE UNITED WAR FUND DRIVE.

All loyal American minds and hearts must be GEN.
tered on the drive for the United War Fund Drive
wh'ch , is IS, on tor the coming week. Its plan has
been fully explained during the past few weeks in
all the newspapers and periodicals of the land, so
tnat the most cursory reader cannot fail by this
time to have sufficient working KNOWLEDGE of it,
lie seven leading welfare organizations have
consolidated their appeal in single fund called the
war chest Fund, which is to provide for their needs
during the entire year of 1919. In MINNEAPOLIS all
the local charitable and phanthropic institutions
are included in the fund which is fixed at four mil
lion dollars
h. This budget will preclude the necessity of about
sixty separate appeals, which would otherwise have
to be made during the year. The contributions are
payable IN monthly instaments beginning in jan
uary, 1919. .
The full strength of the Catholic Church through
out the country has been pledged to the War Chest
Fund through the National Catholic War Council
which embraces the knights of Columbus welfare
work They have been allotted due proportion of
the total amount to be raised, which is 5OOOOO
Cathollcs OF course, are working side by side with
non-Cathocs in making the campaign the splendid
success that is almost in sight for it. Many states
and cities have already gone "over the top' and to
spare IN their generous contributions and are stlv
proud OF their achievements. 1t is "up, to us to
equal or even surpass them in this favored commit
nifty.
Our boys are still in Europe and their welfare
needs will continue while they there and even up
to the time of demobilization They are entitled to
the same care and support as when they were
in actual fighting. There should therefore, be no
relaxation in our comparatively easy task of CO.
Operation with them by means of the welfare move
ments. We are all still in the service which has
been now crowned with glorious victory, and our
responses to the appeal of the drive will spell the
measure OF our appreciation and gratitude for the
consummation, under God, that has been vouch-
|safed us.

tip to the Red Rag Boshevists of Germany
Austria and Russia, where they have seized control
OF the governments and are heading everything
toward destruction, would seem to be in order from
tine Allied Powers They should be peremptorily re-
minded that the status of the belligerent nations
still exists and that the Peace Conference will ulti
mately deal with all of the matters that are engag-
ing the belated activities of the wise men Of the
soviets.
1t was not to make place for soviet rabble or
mob domination that the Hohenzollerns and Haps-
burgs were ousted from their thrones. Such cure
would be as bad or worse than the original disease
itself, as is readily in the chaos and confusion
of the Lenne-Trotsky regime in Russia where
many thousands are doomed to perish of starvation
and cold during the current winter. Being the only
part OF the population possessing semblance Of
organization following the dsintegraton of the old
governments it became easy task for the Social
ist crew to seize hold of the reins of power and
seek to introduce their MARKHAM panaceas for the
cure OF all the economic and political diseases of the
old regime. They would repeat in Germany and
Austria the experiments that have undone Russia
and reduced that country to beggary and impo-
|tence.
But the Allied governments have not failed to
profit by the example of Russia, where they were
temporarily at least powerless to control the trend
dope to get in its deadly work among the bewildered
and stricken masses. Had it been possible to con-
troll the Bolsheviki movement at the outset Russia
might have been saved from this worse than Ro-
manoH species of despotism and tyranny. AS it is

disease best he may under the assistance of civil
lized nursing and medication. But it cannot be
hoped that he will avoid prolonged period of mis-
cry and may possibly suffer permanent residual
after-efects of the Bolshevik infection.
Happily the cases of Germany and Austria can be
dealt with at the beginning of the Bolshevikist dis
temper. The Allies are in absolute control They
may prescribe to the best of their skill and knowl-
edge for their patients and are able to see that their
remedies, which may be largely prophylactic, are

for the benefit of their patients but for that of all
mankind Having seen the effects of the Russian
repetition of it in other places
True it is that punishment that the Allied
powers could devise would be more condign than
that OF leaving the Teutonc Empires to the terrors
and savagery of Bolshevilsm, if such penalty could
be imposed without danger to the whole fabric of
civilization. They cannot, therefore, be abandoned
to the fate which might seem to be well-merited
retribution for the woes which their leaders and
themselves would have brought down upon their
guilty heads. They too, must be safe-guarded
against the ruthless scourge of blind and cross Boil
shevlkism. And the sooner the preventive treat
ment is called into application the better it will be
for all concerned. The Marxians must not be al
lowed to touch with their polluted hands the fair
fruits of the great victory

WASTE IN PROTESTANT CHURCHES

One almost never hears Of a Roman Catholic
Church being abandoned or removed What one
does note constantly is their erection of new struc
lures or enlargement of the old. This is in great
measure due to the fact that so large portion Of i'm
migrants are Catholics but it does not disprove the
fact that this organization holds its ground while
Protestants must shift
One notable fact is that Catholics think further
ahead they build larger churches, they do not build
where none is needed. You never saw four Catholic
churches at single street crossing The Protes-
tants have been ress in this respect but there are
some signs of coming change which may bring
unnecessary denominatonalism- Church Progress.

Racegoers have often asked what Johren means They have been un- able to understand how the Whitney people came to tack such name on a horse which promises to be one of the seasons greatest. So it remained for Walter salmon, the well known real estate man, who runs horses himself, to tell of the naming and what he tells is confirmed by Trainer Jimmy Rowe.

He also has recreation grounds near the hut where the men can indulge in Italian sports.
