CANVASS FOR RED CROSS
FUNDS COMING SOON

Organization for the central di-
vision of the American Red Cross
for the third roll call, November 2
to IL, is being rapidly completed
throughout the division.
State campaign directors for the
five states which comprise the CEN
trail division have been named by E..
X Hardy, manager of the central di-
vision with headquarters in Chicago.
The state manager for Iowa is John
p. Wallace of Des Moines.
Conferences have been held by
the state directors with Mr. Hardy,
and plans for the coming campaign
outlined. In addition meetings of
chapter chairmen will be called by
the state directors at which local
conditions governing the conduct OF
the roll call will be discussed.
In many of the larger cities in the
division special campaign directors
have been appointed who will direct
the work of the membership solicit
ors.
The membership quota for the
central division has been placed at
1000, 900, and the proportion of the
SIS, 900 fund required to carry
on the work of the national organi-
cation is $3,0O0,0 900. Every person
who enrolled in the organization
during the war will be asked to re-
new that membership, and as many
new members as possible will be Sc
cured.
1t has been estimated that about
100000 volunteer workers will be re-
quired to make a complete canvass
of the division.
Special stress during the campaign
will be placed upon the annual one
dollar memberships No special eff
forts will be made to enroll members
of other classes. Red Cross but
tons will be issued to everyone en-
rolling and service flags with red
cross for each member enrolling will
be issued to families. Larger ser
vice flags will be given to industries
enrolling 100 percent.

TRICKS OF AUTO LICENSE

Tax lodging takes in some queer
forms, as has been discovered since
the state agents went out to collect
the back tax on automobiles, says
the Britt News. In one Iowa town
man was found carrying number
plates on a big car that had been
used on a Ford. Another gentle
man and his son-in-law owned cars,
and their method was to take out one
license and attach one number plate
on each car. Another fellow own
ed Ford truck and a pleasure car.
He took out a license on the truck
and attached one number to the
truck and the other to his passen-
ger car. A Junk dealer was found
to own a number of cars that had not
been reported to the state officials as
having been junked and on which the
1919 tax was delinquent. Others
were fiagrantly violating the law by
operating their cars under the old
1918 numbers, and when investiga-
tion was made it was discovered that
they had not so much as applied for
number plates and licenses. The
combing process now taking place
has aroused some who thought
they could get away with anything
in Iowa, and applications for license
have been hurriedly sent in when it
was learned that an agent was oper-
ating in the locality or in nearby
towns. -Griswold American.

SUGAR MAY BE HIGHER

The price of sugar is destined to
go to rs or 80 cents a pound during
the next year and to become mighty
scarce at that, unless the govern
ment speedily assumes control of its
distribution. Even under the most
favorable circumstances the price is
bound to go up, and may touch 15
cents during the winter and for sew
eral months thereafter. This is the
opinion of the sugar bureau of the
department of justice, which is en-
deavoring to stamp out speculation
in the commodity and. keep retail
prices within reasonable bounds.
The department is urging the presi-
dent to establish government control
of distribution under which the sup
ply of sugar for the production Of
candy, soft drinks and other Injuries
would be strictly limited and the
price of sugar to the householder
regulated. Then under the amended
food control act sugar profiiteers
would be prosecuted. The senate
committe on agriculture directed a
subcommittee to investigate Senator
News charges that the president fail
ed to adopt the sugar equalization
boards recommendations to extend
government control to the forthcom-
ing cane and beet sugar crops for the
purpose of conserving supply and
restricting prices during the, next
year.

HELD MEETING LAST
SATURDAY EVENING

The executive committee of the
Audubon County Chapter of the
American Red Cross held a
meeting at their Headquarters
in the Harper building last Satur-
day evening. The matter of TAX
ing up the Red Cross Public Health
Nursing Service was thoroughly die
cussed and it was voted to inaug-
urate the service under direction Of
the Central Division of Chicago.
This service contemplates the SER
vices of a trained nurse who will
visit all of the schools in the county
and also the homes when occasion
calls for it.
A committee of Is on nursing ac-
tivities is to be named and as soon
as this has been done and the report
forwarded to Chicago, a competent
nurse will be sent to Audubon. The
entire expense of this service will be
borne the first year by the Red Cross.
If the service proves as desirable as
it now appears arrangements for
its continuance will be made. The
nurses headquarters. will be in the
Harper building which has been
leased for another year.

GIVEN SURPRISE PARTY

About forty friends of Miss Lola
Clark planned and carried out a
pleasant birthday surprise party on
her last Thursday evening at the
home of her parents. Mr.. and Mrs.
WILDER Clark, five miles southwest
of Audubon Miss Clark was
eighteen years of age and her friends
were determined that the event
should not go past unnoticed. The
surprise was complete and 1t was not
until the merry party had entered
her home that Miss Lola suspicioned
the meaning of the intrusion.
The evening was spent In games
OF various kinds after which dainty
refreshments were served. The
guests departed for their hons at a
late hour wishing Miss Clark many
happy returns of the day.

TIE BOND ELECTION LOST

The bond election for good roads in
the sum OF $1,500,0oO was lost in
Tuesdays election by the narrow
margin OF only few votes.
We can only repeat what we said
once before, that our country friends
missed an opportunity that will per.
haps never be presented to them
again
Though paying large part of the
tax, not a penny of the proceeds was
to go on the streets OF Ocala, so, as
before stated, we could very well un.
derstand how one living In Ocala and
like the writer. owning no automobile
yet paying enough taxes to own a
dozen, could vote against the bond is.

railroads, telegraph and telephone

Well. we are glad to say that imme-
diate steps will be taken to save the

rious things that it carries with it.
The outlying districts-those that

UNIFORM CONTAINERS NEEDED
SAYS LIGHT

LIS. Light, OF Reddick, one OF the
directors of the State Marketing Blu
Ireau, was in the city Tuesday, and
Iattended the meeting of crate manu-
facturers, at which there was an ex.
tended discussion over standardization
and other matters relating to the man.
ufacture of containers. In general
talk over affairs Mr.. Light said TO the
Times-union.
I'VE need uniform containers for
various reasons, but we also need TO
have contents uniformly graded as to
size and quality by all shippers. And
what is needed. too, is cooperation
in shipments, but we must get togeth.
er in a cooperative way in seed selec-
tion, in planting, cultivating. harvest.
ing and selling. The individual him.
self don't count for much, but when
in combination a dozen or hundred
men combined for a definite purpose,
a good deal can be accomplished, Of
which we have examples.
New restrictions are constantly
being imposed by the express and
railroad companies and the small
shipper is getting the worst Of it, but
when enough producers get together
under practical direction, shipments
can be made by the carload with a
great saving in freight. besides there
can be uniformity in grading products.
The burden of proof is decidedly in
favor OF organized effort
THE labor condition in the whole
country is in turmoil, and the solu.
tion is not clearly in sight. The war
brought on spirit Of recklessness,
and the rich and poor are indulging in
extravaganza and wastefulness. We
look to the Washington government
to help correct our troubles but all
the laws that can be passed viii not
change characteristics that people as
individuals may possess.
The government is the people, and
the people are living beyond their
means. The American individual
rlust produce more Of the essentials
and consume less OF the luxuries,
wear fewer silk shirts and stockings
and jewelry, and get down to palmer
living, in order to save the country
and the national character from bank.

teams, and is still a baseball enthu-
siast.
He played in Gainesville a number
Of years ago and In several other
southern towns before going north
after training.
Mr.. COnnor is still a large and
splendid type of man, as were all the
original New York Giants.
Mr.. Collins is deputy sheriff Of his
county in Connecticut, and is in Flor.
ida to enjoy well earned vacation.
This paper hopes that both gentle
men and their families win be delight
