Mrs. F. f. Shine, chairman of
chapter production of the Bisbee
Chapter, is making a tour of all
the local Red Cross Rooms and
paid visit to Benson on Thurs
day afternoon. Along with the

of the chapter, and other friends.
Mrs. Shine began her talk with
these words, The war is over, but
not so the work of the Red Cross.
The government has not released
us, and until they do we must con-
tinue. While all knitting and the
making of surgical bandages are
abandoned, the refugee work must
be continued for some time. as the

Progress of the Smelter

The work upon the plant of the
Arizona Smelling and Power Com
.pany is progressing rapidly, and
the prediction made by the man
agement thereof that it would be
in operation within ninety days
now appears to be a certainty.
Men representing all classes of Ia
Dor are employed there, and this
force will be increased from time
to time as the work progresses.
New machinery costing thousands
of dollars has been ordered, and
some of this is now in transit from
the East Mr.. Goetz, the presi-
dent Of the company, is deserving
of great commendation for the
manner in which he has expedited
the formation and financing of this
enterprise. Mr.. Fishback, who is
associated with him, has rendered
valuable assistance in its establish
ment, and Benson can look for
ward to the time when it will be
one OF the busiest little. cities on
the main line of the. Southern Pa
cific. Mr., R. L. Lee, who will
have the superintendency of the
smelter, is man whose technical
knowledge of ore treatment admir-
ably fits him for this position, and
has had a wide experience in this
field in this Chile and other South
American countries.
The superintendents of power
are Messrs. al. Daniels and A.
Shaffenberg, Wh are now arrang-
ing to install the machinery. Both
of these gentlemen are thorough
mechanics who are familiar with
every part of the power units in
use in ore reduction plants.
While the nation is entering
upon a period of reconstruction,
Benson is doing some reconstruct
ing on its own account.

Getting Rid of Colds

The easiest and quickest way to
get rid of a cold is to take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. This
preparation has been in use for
many years and its value fully pro-
ven. No matter what remedy you
use, however, care must be ta%en
not to- contract a second cold be
fore you have recovered from the
first one, and there is serions dam
ger of this. A man of middle age

better to stay in bed three days at
the start than three weeks later on

Campaign for Relief
in Near East.
Will Begin in Southwest Week
of February 1O-17

Phoenix, Jan. 23.-Marked pro-
gress is being made in the state
wide organization which will i'm
dertake the task of raising $780,
900 to rehabilitate the war stricken
Syrians, Armenians and Jewish
and other peoples of the Near
East. This gigantic task will be
carried out through three-in-one
drive for funds during the week of
February 1917.
The truth of the terrible con-
dition now prevailing throughout
the Near East is revealed in a re-
cent appeal of President Wilson
which has taken the form of a pro-
clamation. This reads in part as
follows:
For more than three years
American philanthropy has been a
large factor in keeping alive Ar
menian, Syrian, Greek and other
exiles and refugees of Western
Asia.
"On two former occasions I have
appealed to the American people
and the response has been most
generous, but now the period of
rehabilitation is at hand. Vastly
larger sums will be required to re-
store these once prosperous, but
now impoverished refugees to their
former homes than were required
merely to sustain life in their de-
sert exile.
Il, therefore, again call upon
the people of the United States to
make even more generous contribu-
tons thar. they have made hereto
fore to sustain through the winter
months those, who. y through no
fault of their own, have been left
III a starving, shelterless condition,
and to help reestablish these an
cient and sorely oppressed people
in their former homes on a self
supporting basis
There are 3.05O.OOO souls,
400, 600 of whom are orphans, all
in desperate need. Catholics, Pro-
testants and Jews alike have been
the victims of Turkish oppression
and of Turkish government orders
to exterminate or drive from their
homes and industries every other
people in the Near East says
Charles Willis, state director of the
United Drive for Relief in Ariz-
ona.
Catholics, Protestants and Jews
alike are receiving every help
within the power of the committee
for the United Drive in the Near
East" further stated Mr.. Willis;
every dollar that is subscribed
goes to alleviate the suffering of
these stricken people, all expenses
of collection and of distribution is
met privately.

Station Grounds to be Beautified

It has been thought for a long
time that something might be done
to make Benson more attractive.
1t has natural beauty all around it
and all that is needed is that some
enterprising people with a love for
the beautiful form themselves into
a committee so that their ideas
might take a practical shape. This
week we have seen signs Of start
on this very line. The Southern
Pacific Company is to make little
park in front of the depot here.
The space is useless for anything
else, but lends itself for landscape
purposes. Many of the depots are
so beautifed, and thus Benson is
falling in line with other places.
Mr.. G. D. Ioli has charge of the
work and start has been made for
the planting of trees.
Now that we have made begin
ming III the way of beautifying the
town cannot we have an Arbor
Committee to push the idea fur
ther so as to make Benson a town
to be enjoyed by its inhabitants,
and also make other people wish
they were BenSoniteS.
