CHARLEY ONWn4ER HAS
SERIOUS ACCIDENT

Charley Onwiler met with serious
accident Sunday morning at his
ranch just east of Meridian. He was
mailing a board when a rusty nail
hit his left eye with force enough to
cut deep cash in the eye ball, one
fourth of an inch in length. A del
icate job of surgery was performed
at Boise hospital in sewing up the
injured member, and the doctor has
hopes of saving the sight of the eye,
although it is doubtful. 1t may be
necessary to remove the eye to save
sympathetic effect on the other, but
Charley's many friends hope that
this will not be done. How the wound
heals will determine the future
action in the matter.
Charley is an optimistic sort OF d
| fellow but his bad luck this year
is little more than his share. He
had the appendicitis and the flu, but
we know Charley pretty we'll and
think his grit and energy will carry
him through all right.

RED CROSS ARMIsTIcE WEEK

Red Cross Chapters, branches and
anxiliaries in the Northwestern Div
ision, comprising Alaska, Idaho, Ore
gon and Washington, will participate
in the THIRD RED CROSS ROLL
CALL November 2 to November IL,
Armistice Day. The American Red
Cross, the greatest relief organization
In recorded history, the modified
heart-action of the American people,"
will engage in no more drives" for
huge sums for war relief, but will
continue its annual roll-call, which is
simply the occasion on which the
American people express their belief
in the ideals and work Of the Red
Cross by enrolling as members. "Ali
you need is a heart and dollar"
For five reasons, say the leaders of
the Red Cross, this THIRD RED
CROSS ROLL CALL should enroll
every loyal and public spirited Ameri-
can citizen among the millions of mem
bers of the organization that served
our boys at home and overseas, saved
the morale of France and Italy in our
early days in the war, relieved the
millions of refugees, fed the starving
babies of Europe, saved whole nations
from determination, stood as next
friend to those families in America
whose dear ones were in the service

the fight against influenza, dealt with
great national disasters of flood and
fire, and now carries on to do its part
to serve America and to make the
war worth having been won.

The Red Cross button is the most
widely worn button in the world.
Thirty million men and women and
children in the United States now
wear this emblem of countless good
deeds accomplished. For the third
year in America comes universal op'
portunity to wear it.
There are many instances of how
this button, bearing upon white
background tiny cross, has been
worn and treasured. One morning in
a distant northwest county, man
whose ruddy, optimistic countenance
was clothed with ruddy beard, asked
the Red Cross chairman if he had an
other button like the one he wore.
The chairman gave him his own. Il

Pile still give cheer, comfort and serv-
ice through their Red Cross.
In certain portions of the old World
the American Red Cross still feeds
and clothes the undernourished and
ragged babies, cares for the aged and
the infirm, and assists the people OF
these disease-ridden, famine-stricken,
war-ravaged countries to organize
their own resources. Since the sign
ing of the Armistice, this work has
steadily declined, but 1t is not by any
means fully completed.
2. The Red Cross Is the Disaster Re-
lief Agent of the American People.
The speed and efficiency with which
the Red Cross met emergency needs
at Corpus Christi illustrated the value
of nationwide Red Cross organization.
In case of disaster, whether 1t be for
est fire in the Northwest or great
Mississippi Valley flood, the first eff
fective relief will hereafter come from
nearby communities, working through
their Red Cross Chapters.
8. In Case of Epidemic Local Red
Cross Organization Is lndispens-
able.
During the influenza epidemic, Red
Cross action and cooperation saved
three thousand lives, because the Red
Cross was fully organized in every
community in the United States,
Against a possible recurrence of in

8. America Has Set the Pace In
World Red Cross Movement.
The League of Red Cross Societies
of all nations has been formed through
the inspiration OF the Red Cross
achievement Of the United States.
This League has no executive power
whatever over the Red Cross of any
nation, but will extend into every ma
ton the benefits of national, volun-
tary Red Cross society on the A<meri-
can model, to deal with problems of
health and child welfare and to cope
with the relief problems that are so
pressing over so great part of the
earth's surface. Through these organ
izations many nations will meet their
own problems which would otherwise
be appealing to America for relief and
assistance. The United States, whose
people have shown the world how thus
to rise out of despair into hope, must
keep the Red Cross banner floating
high The success or failure of this
great world movement of practical
idealism will depend largely upon the
