RED CROSS REPORT

(By Mrs. ]. l. Morris)
TO MY FRIENDS IN LEE couNTY:

TO MY FRIENDS IN LEE COUNTY:
Friends! What wonderful word
and what blessing for one to have
real, true friends. On Christmas
morning ring at my door bell and
upon opening my door | found 1t to
be my dear young friend, Buster
Newbern, who left a beautiful box
for me with card attached on which
was written, For Mrs. j. |. Morris.
Wishing you most happy Christ
mas. From your friends"
When | opened the box you can
imagine my joy and surprise when
| found it contained beautiful solid
silver set of "a pieces, richly engrav-
ed with my name.
Friends. cannot find words to
express my appreciation to you, Tor
your sweet thoughtfulness of me, and
to assure you that your beautiful
gift will ever remain one of my most
treasured possessions.
When grim war cast its dark
shadows about us, and our beloved
country was confronted with the
greatest crisis the world has ever
known: when mothers hearts were
breaking and gallant sons were mar
ching away, / was happy in the
thought that i might in some way
be able to do my part, and, as an
American woman, whatever | nave
done to help, | have only done my
duty, and in doing my duty, | have
had created in me deeper mean
ing of both life and death, and L
have been able to learn the great
truth. that the sweetest happiness
comes through sacrifice. Friends,
would have you know the work that
has been done for this cause has not
been done by me alone, but by many
of our sweet and noble women and
men of Mariana and Lee county,
who. with their big hearts, their ever
readiness to help, and their sweet
dispositions, have made 1T possible
for us to have accomplished so much.
Friends, as | said before, | can
find no words to express my appre-
citation to you for your thoughtfulness
of me. May God ever bless and be
with each one of you and your loved
ones and may the new year be one
of the happiest years in your lives.
New Years. greetings to all our
soldier boys. God bless you, boys.
| am with you till the last boy is
safely home.
With best of wishes for all.

around the house for a short time.

Vote DELAYED
ON ARTICLE X
Ballot May Be Had Today
On Amendment and
Reservation.

Because of the length of yesterdays
debate on Article X of the league of
nations covenant. the Senate did not
take vote. and this move was post
poned until today.
The Walsh amendment was the SUBJ
ject OF much criticism and support.
Senator johnson, California, inquired
of Senator Walsh whether, if the ire
concilable opponents of the peace
treaty voted for the amendment, the
Democrats would then support the
reservation as amended?
Senator Walsh is said to have ad-
mitted that the plan of the Democrats
was to support his amendment and
then cast their votes solidly against
the reservation.
The Walsh amendment will have al
most all the irreconcilables opposed
to it.
Senator McCumber, on behalf of the
mild reservation group. told Senator
Hitchcock that If the Walsh amend
ment should be voted into the reserya-
tion, it would remain there and that
their votes would be cast for the reser-
vation. even if amended.

LACK PLACE To

Deportation of 400
Aliens Is Checked.

With the Department Of Ju~,ic.
holding approximately 400 alien
radicals for deportation. it was IN
dIcated last night that many Of
these aliens will not be banned from
the shores OF America, and that
even those deportations accom-
plished will be deferred for a long
time.
This delay is due to lack Of agree
ment between the Bureau of Immi-
grafton and the Department of Jus-
tice on evidence against the alleged
radicals, the handicap OF the Rureau
Of Immigration in lack Of funds and
employees. and the absence OF reIa-
