A Correction.

Through all of the papers of the
county last week we made the state
ment that the individual contributions
for Near East Relief had varied from
small amounts to $4,000. The high
amount should have been $4,000, as
we had a contribution of that amount
from one man.
We have made further study of the
receipts, which have totaled a little
over 100000, including some amounts
not sent through our county treasur-
er. Many will be surprised to learn
that three districts gave two thirds of
the whole amount, or over $4,000.
Two other districts together gave "a
bout $725.00, and another two gave
about $4,000, while the remaining
seven, half of the county, all together
gave about $4,000.
We do not mention any districts by
rame until the campaign is more
nearly completed, as we believe the
whole county will do more, much
more, and especially the districts that
have altogether neglected the matter.
