number of needy to figure much
larger than that represented by the
number of war orphans alone.
Under normal conditions there are
about $4,000 people in Finland who
must be cared for by the various
municipalities. This number has been
so greatly increased by war orphans
and widows that the total number

The Aid of the American Red Cross.
If the American Red Cross will
undertake the aid of these war Or
phans, widows and other persons in
distress, it will be a work with a
blessing. They are sorely in need of
food, clothing and shoes, and above
all, comforting and encouraging
words. All of these the American
Red Cross can help them secure, and
for this help the people will show
the same genuine gratitude shown
by other peoples whose widows and
orphans have received such splendid
aid from this organization.

A four-square proposition that
everybody believes in! Sheep, fire
prevention, land clearing and our idle
acres producing wool, lambs and
mutton.
A county wide propaganda has
been started by the County Age,pha
Office, backed by the St. Louis County
Club, Endorsed by City Councils, Com
mercial Clubs, landowners and bank
ers. If interested in turning our idle
acres, distinct and oftentimes dam
gerous liability, into an asset, cap
able of even paying dividends, get
into the game by helping organize
the cities and villages of the Range
in order to give it the financial sup
port it ought to have. We can get
the sheep, we can get the pasture, and
we can also get the help necessary to
look after this enterprise. We should
be able to get the cooperation of
everybody interested in progress and
development to the extent of
proper financing of the deal. All
these agencies are possible, and,
properly directed, would mean just
what we have stated time and again,
that wool, lambs and mutton will
grow where grass, weeds and brush
grew before.
Come, give US lift! Let US clean
up before another season Of dry
weather and high winds wipes out
some other section as completely as
it has. done before. It means CO.
operation in the biggest and broad
est sense Of the word. But then,
sheep have cleared up lots of land
before, and paid for the privilege.
Why not let them do it here?

police guards, however. were on duty
at other piers.
The strikers. who yesterday walked
out of conference of conciiators at

day. He also said oilers. scalers and
other shipyard workers had promised
