TIVE distinct purposes are
given in the new Peace Fro
gram of the Junior Red Cross
outlined by the officials at Natlohai
Headquarters and affecting the 4S,2o9
Junior Red Cross members in the Gu1
Division, comprising Louisiana, Mlssls-
sippi and Alabama.
The purposes are given as follows:
To furnish relief to- suffering
children throughout the world
To stimulate community actlVl-
ties appropriate to the spirit OF
the American Red Cross.
To develop an international un-
Outstanding and good will made
necessary by the new world con-
ditions resulting from the war
To provide motives for the pur-
posefuI and useful school actlV1-
ties.
To inculcate ideals and habits
of service.
There is a great need for relief
among the millions of children in for
eign lands who are suffering and Will
continue to suffer for long period
because of the deprivations forced
upon them during the war. Through
the new plan of the Junior Red Cross
the children of the Gulf Division, as
well as thousands of other Juniors
throughout America, will be given an
opportunity to help these children
across the sea.
The questions arising are: Are we
not vitality bound 80 help the children
of those countrkse What can we dc
for them? Are we not even serving
our own best interests in following to
the letter the creed of unselfishness!
National ChiIdren's Fund.
In future years as the children OF
America take out Red Cross member
ships through the schools, part OF
the membership fee 5000, will be
sent through the proper channels to
National Headquarters, to form a
National Children's Fund" for the
purpose Of carrying on relief work
entirely among children in various
countries. II the school or school
committee desires to remit an amount
larger than 900 of the membership
fee it may do so, and credit will be
given accordingly. No part of this
money will be used for any other pur-
pose.

ried on abroad through the use of the
money contributed by the Junior Red
Cross, the production Of the new refu'
gee garments, reconstructed garments
for use among the refugees, refugee
furniture, and a large number of ar
ticles for use in camps, environments
and hospitals as well as for local in
stitutiuns, will be continued for some
time to come.
An illustration Of the extent tC
which these articles are required al
the present time is presented in the
following statements:
In most chapters the sewing
classes will be kept busy during
the remainder of the school year
and still the number of articles
produced cannot possibly meet
the demands.

Just been sent out suggesting to

MAY IN HARD LUCK

Jakey May pitched to only two
batterS in q recent Cardinals
Reds game, but that was enough
for the scorers to charge him
with the loss of the game. He
relieved Meadows with the score
4 to 8 and q runner on third. A
hit by Rousch sent in the run
that tied. Meadows could be
charged with that, so May was
left with the tie game to solve.
The next batter hit safely off
May, leaving two men he had
put on before he was jerked.
They were enough, when they
scored, to give Cincinnati a win
and May a black mark.

DECISION WHEN
DID War CLOSE
IS VITAL HERE
Mayor and Commissioners Stumpcd
Legion Wants ArmOry and
Community Club Has II.

Oh. hum!
II seems as how It's going to be
left to the Rock Island city COM
missioners to decide when the war
is over.
War time prohibition, woman
suffrage or no like issue is at
stake, but the commissioners are
facing situation involving per-
fectly valid lease on the Armory
hall-that is the lease is valid until
the end of the war.
Gosh all hemlock,' Mayor
Harry M. Schriver and the four
city commissioners calculated In
unison during the regular meeting
yesterday afternoon when the mat
ter came up that entirely hangs on
whether or not the war Is closed.
/ The concensus Of opinion was
that the city commissioners would
have to brush up little on the
League of Nations pact and a few
thousand other things that are
seemingly standing in the way Of
official peace. so that they might
be in a position to end the war in
shipshape in as little time as pos
sible and thereby solve perplex-
ing problem.
The issue was presented to the
commissioners in the form of 4
petition from the executive board
of the Rock Island post of the
American Legion that the legion be
granted the use Of Armory hall. ad-
joining and just back of the CITY
hall, as the legion's official quarters
and no other organization be al
lowed to hold the hall jointly with
the legion.
Between Two Fires.
However, the commissioners are
between two fires. The Armory
hall is now being used by the Com
munity club. which has a lease Oh
tie building until the end Of The
war at rental Of 81 year.
The mayor and the city commits
sioners feel that the American L.
gion post has prior rights to the
building. but would like to see the
post use the hall in conjunction
with the Community club. 80 that
neither organization would be
Handicapped. and especially so as
the Community club now has the
building nicely arranged and wants
to keep its organization intact as
It was during the war.
The petition of the American Le-
gion was placed on file pending an
attempt to ascertain whether or not
some arrangement can be agreed
upon between the two organizations
that will allow both to use the hall.
However, in case such an agree
ment can not be reached it seems
TO be the consensus Of opinion
among the commissioners that the
American Legion should be given
the building. The Legion requests
that the building be turned over to
il by Jan. !.
Right here is where, the commits
sioners are stumped. The Com
munity club has a perfectly valid
lease up until the war is ended, and
rs peace has not yet been declared.
the commissioners do not see how
they could turn the building over
to the American Legion in face Of
the Community clubs lease.
y Legion Presents Case.
The Legion. through its secre-
tary. Bert H. Kemper, puts up the
following contentious upon which
It bases its claim Of priority rights
over the building:
