are now returning to face civil life,
manned in body and mind, and the Red
Cross must remember them all. As
German propaganda drags Itself into
history, the wounds of its terror and
deviltry left in its wake must be heal
ed and cared for, and the house where
it once lived must be fumigated and
cleansed and made fit to live in.
To meet this great emergency, to
serve unfortunate men and women ev-
erywhere, to serve the world in its
great necessity, is the mission and the
purpose of the Red Cross now
So, the Red Cross work rooms are
now open. There, many women are
working every day. The time to stop
this work is not yet in sight. More
women helpers are needed. The sup
port of the men is needed. Every one
can help. If you are now member,
keep up your membership. If you ar,

to help, ask any Of the officers what
you can do. 1t is your privilege and

Differing from most every other
war activity, the work of the Red
Cross did not end when the armistice
was signed. 1t must be remembered
that the Red Cross was not organized
primarily for work in the war that is
just ended. but, that it is an organiza-
tion that has existed for long time
and has done service in a great num-
ber of wars From the time of its
birth to the present time. whether a
state of war existed any place on the
face of the earth or not, and when cv-
erything was peaceful among the ma
tions, the Red Cross found a place for
its services wherever there was hard
ship or suffering, or disaster. 1t is
true that il. has seen its greatest de-
veiopment and largest service in the
great war now over. But conditions
worse than the world has ever had 10
face before still exist in Europe and
wherever battles have been fought, and
from these places, the appeal to the
Red Cross for help and assistance is
now as strong as it ever was.
1t is to be hoped that when each
American soldier is discharged, and
when at last has reached his home. he
will find his old job, his office, or his
farm, or his store waiting for him, and
a. he left it. But this cannot be true
in the case of Belgian or French SOL
der His home and his farm, and
whatever he had was destroyed by the
Germans He can have nothing but
the ruins of his old possessions -
work with, and with which to make his
living and support his family. Millions
of men andwomen in these stricken
lands are appealing to the Red Cross
for help. The call Of the unfortunate
little children, from the deserted bat
tie fields, to THE Greatest Mother in
the World" is being heard round the
world and Is going to be answered-is
now being answered.
Over two million of our own soldiers
marines and sailors are still in service
and are every bit as much in need of
the services of this organization, as ev-
er they were. The little comforts that
the Red Cross has in the past furnish
ed to our boys in uniform will not now
be withheld. Garments and clothing
must still be furnished to the little
children Of Belgium and everywhere.

JULESBURG POSTOFFICE

Perhaps there is no better evidence
of cOmmunity's progress than that
which is shown by the increased bust
ness of the Julesburg postoffice The
Julesburg postoffice is conducted by
Finley Dye. the postmaster, who has
held this position since August 6,
1916, and is assisted by his wife. The
office is located in an exclusive post
office building in the center of the
business section of our city
There is at present one rural route
and one star route going out of Jules
burg, the carriers being C. W. Bunch
and o. W. Bower, respectively. A so
mile motor route has been petitioned
for and recommended by the postof-
flee inspector to go north from this
office into Deuel. and Garden counties
in Nebraska. There is also a plan for
mail route to run southeast from
Julesburg, and this should come into
existence in the near future, as there
are many new people moving into the
country, which will surely provide
enough patrons to justify this service.
The postoffice at Julesburg is the
central accounting office for Sedg-
wick county. there being two other
post offices in the county, those of
Sedgwick and Ovid. The postal re-
ceipts of the Julesburg postoffice, as
will be noted in the comparative
statement published below, was
S9,O45.65. which WAS a material in |
crease over the preceding year and
only little over $4,000 less than the
amount required by the government
to provide this community with q free
city carrier service. 1t is an assured
fact that Julesburg will obtain city
carrier service next year, rs the total |
postal receipts will undoubtedly go ov-
er the SIC, 10000 mark
An idea as to the growth of this
can be gained from the |
following figures which show the
amount of business transacted during
the past five years. From this it can
Be seen that this community is en-
joying a very steady and substantial |
growth from year to year:

MISS GLADYS ToMPKINs BRINGS
NEW DANCE TO PENSACOLA.

= Miss Gladys Tompkins, new social
| hostess at the San Carlos has intro
duced N Pensacola the London
Rocker a new dance step domesti-
Gated from the imperial court in Lon
don in honor of his highness, the
prince of Wales. The dance promises
| to be the most popular of the season
and as interpreted by Miss Tompkins
/ is beautiful, almost sublime, with a
| charming dignity and grace. Miss
| Tompkins is a Mobile girl a member
of one of the Alabama city's Oldest
and wealthiest families. A true, inde-
pendent and progressive American girl
and gifted with unusual grace she
chose to make a profession of fancy
dancing and how well she has sue
ceeded is attested by the repeated
success which has come to her. She
is said to be the best dancer in the
/, south.
She has spent number of seasons
in the east and west. Her arrival in
Pensacola is hailed with delight by
tastic and her residence at the San
Carlos this winter will add much to the
social gayety Of the hotel. Of the new
dance which Miss Tompkins predicts
to be the dance of the season an ex-
change says:
The London rocker is essentially
waltz danced to jazz music. No, the
jazz is still very much alive thank you.
Reports of it's death have been greatly
exaggerated and the music of the com
ing season will be jazzier than ever
Rocker is characterized by the same
feature that will mark all the dances
of the winter season namely, waltz
steps. three in one turns, and jazz
music. The posture will be very erect
and dignified, with hugging tabooed
the elbows will be up and the fingers
closed with thumbs out and the
shoulders will be most formally erect,
they simply won't be allowed to
bulge an inch.
OF course the critics maintain that
it was their anti-shimmie propaganda
that brought about this reformation,
but the dancing teachers say that the
critics had nothing at all to do with
it. The pendulum, like all pendulums,
has just naturally swung to the other
end. There is no happy medium on
dances, and just like the maiden Of the
nursery, shy they are good. they are
very good, and when they are bad,
they are horrid. The dances of this |
winter are very.vver good.
Other standard dances of the com |
ing season will be the for waltz which |
can be danced to either waltz or fox /
music, the bellefield, which is similar |
to the rocker, except that it is a one |
step and consequently danced to syn
copated time. The ruskin waltz is also |
one of the latest dances, promising to |
score great popularity. 1t is very |
much like the old fox trot. Why it |
should be named after John Ruskin |
is more than we can answer. Perhaps |
they danced it in Queens Garden" |
Who knows 2? Anyway. Mr.. Ruskin !
ought to feel justly flattered, because |
it is much more genteel to have |
dance named after you than cigar. /
and a five cent cigar at that.
There is hardly any possibility for |
criticism in regard to tlrS1'
new Dances" Aside from the fact that |
they are precisely .just So as far /
as dignity and propriety are concern /
ed they are unusually simple and easi-
ly learned.
