WAR WORK FUNDS
ARE NEEDED

A letter from the New York head
Quarters of the National War Work
Fund to Mr.. Severance of Cleveland
chairman of this organization the
stAltement is made that the need Of
funds for the seven war work or
ganizs tions for whom the fund was
subscribed is pressing.
This letter points out that prac-
tically no funds raised by collections
We're arhilsble until Dec. End and at
least one of the largest organizat on
ran out of money Sept 1st and had
to borrow money in order to keep
their work for the boys going. One
organization is $10,0O0.000 IN debt.
1t tlkes about S15, 100000 per
month to meet the appropriations for
the various societies engaged in war
work end the fact that the fund is so
Ear beh nd in paying the appropria-
tons makes imperative the continu-
snce of payment of pledges made to
this fund The letter further states
that the statement that large bal
ances are being built up in the banks
Is untrue; the money is being d's-
tributed as fast as it is received.

SOUVENIRS

Mr.. Foster Wager who was with
the Lakeside Hospital Unit of Cleve-
land at American Base Hospital No.
4, Rouen. on the Sc ne in France for
twenty months, came last Sunday to
visit his brothr Clyde Wager and
fnmily and other friends in the vic
unity of Wauseon. Mr.. Wager has
been in the States S nee February
18th but did not obtain his discharge
until a couple of weeks ago; he will
return Friday to Cleveland where
he will resume his former position
with the American Express Company
at an increased salary.
Mr.. Wager has brought with him
quite an extensive collection of SOU
ven RS which are on exhibit at the
Read and Wager Drug Store and are
very interesting. Among these SOU
venirs is a hand carved rosewood
rosary said to be $50 years old, a
piece of one of the bells in the
chimes OF Ypres Cathedral; many
art cles made by German prisoners
and souvenirs from each of the ex-
treme ends of the Western Front in
Europe.

WAR CHEST TO BRING SUIT
AGAINST NON-PAYERS

The executive committee of the
War Chest have decided that this is
no time to- lay down on the PROPOSE
tion and propose to start suits by
the wholesale if necessary to collect
all pledges. Tn secretary with an
office force is now preparing and
mailing notices to all subscribers
who are now in arrears in payments,
giving notice that suit will be started
unless payment is made within a
short time.
It seems incredible to the com
mittee that in good old Fulton Couny
so many subscribers have broken
IN with their sacred pledges their
duty to humanity, and to more than a
million of our boys yet across the
seas.
Relying upon the loyalty of the
people OF Fulton County the dis
oursing committee, representing
every part of the County, has ten
atively or at least morally pledged
$4,000 to various relief organiza-
tions and requests from many other
worthy organizations for funds. The
committee say that at least the
$4,000 must be raised and that it
is going to be raised even though it
may mean several hundred lawsuits.
Pledges to the War Chest should
be held as sacred as any obligation
moral or financial and it seems al
most inconceivable that the people Of
prosperous Fulton County should re-
pudiate "a sacred and honest pledge
The committee feel that it would
not be just to those who have been
fair enough to pay all that is requfr.
ed of them to let off without protest
those who have not been fair. hence
tho act On of the committee.
It looks as though the only way
those subscribers who are in
arrears can avoid liability to civil
action is to step without delay and
pay the balance due on their sub
scriptions. The sentiment of the
people of Fulton County will back
up the committee in its determination
to take drastic steps to force the
payments of subscriptions if necess-
ary.
