RED CROSS REPRESENTATIVE
VISITS EUREKA CHAPTER


Urges That Chapter Members Continue
Organization and Benevolent Work
Mrs. Martha Davis of Reno, who
has served as secretary of the Red
Cross and has helped with the work
in general since the organization of
the Reno chapter. arrived in Eureka
by Wednesdays train and visited the
Eureka Chapter at its workrooms
the same evening. Only a few of
members we're present owing to the
lady's visit here not being generally
known.
Mrs. Davis being thoroughly in
formed regarding the Red Cross and
its work. has been vent out by the
Pacific Division to visit the various
chapters throughout the State to in
form, explain and enlighten MEM
bers of what is expected from Ne
vada by this humane organization
toward assisting in the work of res
toration and rendering aid to the
people of the countries ravished by
war. The lady stated that while the
Red Cross at present had ample
funds, it was urged that the chap
tiers continue to hold their organiza-
tions together so that the work out
lined for the Pacific division could be
carried on and satisfactorily COM
pleted.
The lady recommended that a class
in first aid emergency work be formed
here and explained that $50 would be
allowed from the general Red Cross
fund to pay a physician to instruct
the class for a period of six weeks.
Each person enrolling would be
taxed one dollar, half of this sum to
go to the general Red Cross fund at
Washington, D. c.. and the other
half to pay the price of books for
study.
Mrs. Davis is now field instructor
for California, Arizona and Nevada,
with headquarters at San Francisco.
Miss Annie Flavin, Chairman First
Aid Committee, wishes all who desire
to take a course in First Aid to meet
at the work-room Tuesday evening

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Mary Boston, Annie Depaoli, and
Bessie Hunter returned to school
this week after being absent since
school closed last Fall.
The debate yesterday afternoon,
Resolved, That the customary min
er's wage in Eureka is reasonable"
proved very interesting to all those
present. Principal Morgan was
elected chairman. Vice Principal Gil
crest secretary, and the Student Body
served as judges. The affirmative
side was composed of Addie Meri-
aldo, Margaret Kitchen and Robert
Laird, while the negative had Jud-
son Hooper. Fanny Gibson and Clo-
tide Bale. After a 45 minute de-
bate a vote was taken and the result
was in favor of the negative-17 to
IL.
Word has been received from the
State Board of Education saying that
our outdoor games of basket ball
and base ball would not be consid-
cred satisfactory as physical educa-
ton. 1t seems asthough regular
gymnastic work would have to be
given in order to get that credit. and
as there are no facilities here for TAX
ing this exercise, we will not try for
any credit this year. However. this
does not neal we will drop all exer-
cises entirely, as we intend to resume
our outdoor games again as 500 as
theweather permits.
Next Friday afternoons debate is,
Resolved, That the Industrial Revo-
luton was beneficial to labor" In
other words, rs the use of labor saw
ing machinery a help or hindrance
to labor" 1t has now been arranged
that in each debate different men,
bers of the class will take part.
