During the Gpidemlcs.
No stronger evidence OF the effici-
ency and preparedness of the Red
Cross can be shown than in the influ-
enza epidemics of the past two years
BY a prompt mobilization of the Red
Cross nursing resources thousands Of
lives were saved In Pennsylvania, and
the Red Cross Chapters stood calamity
by the families of the victims giving
food, fuel and money where necessary,
until the unfortunates were again self
supporting. Fully 100000 cases were
administered to in this state and Della
ware by the Red Cross, and many lives
were thus saved which otherwise
world hau" : q sacrificed.
The teaching of Home Nursing by
the Red Cross is another most impor-
tant activity. Ninety per cent of all
cases of illness Are nursed in the home
and with this percentage. home nurs-
ing is Of the first importance.
During the first six weeks OF 1920,
the Red Cross conducted 226 classes in
Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick.
II instructors .eeacldng 3S45 students.
most Of whom passed satisfactory ex-
aminations.
This great record was made by a
large number of the Chapters, as the
Home Hygiene course is instantly rec
ognized as a thoroughly practical one
and 1t is taught by actual demonstra-
ton as well as precept. Tioga County
graduated 400 pupils and !.ycoming.
Potter, Unions Kane. Mexican County,
Wilkes-Barre, and many other chap
tiers had notably fine records.
Home Service Work.
This activity grew out of the war,
and among those Chapters which have
secured permission to extend home
service to civilian families are Mercer,
Beaver, Titusville Crawford County, !;
Forest, Oil City enango County, !;
Punxsutawney Jefferson County, :;
Indiana, Perry, Westmoreland, Latrobe

gomery Counties; Southern Schuylkil,
Carbonate O.ackawanna County, :;
EastoL (Northampton County,; Ad-
ANS. and the Delaware Chapter. A
number OF other Chapters have made
application for this permission
In the first part Of 1920 Home Serv-
Ice has been rendered in about 10000
cases, excluding entertainments given
by the Red Cross, the attendance at
these entertainments reaching about
100000. Thus Home Service alone
came into contact with almost 100000
persons in tile state.
Specific cases of what Home Service
has done might be multiplied indefi-
Eitely. The Harrisburg Home Service
paid for ii delicate and expensive OPP

LOCAL SUPPORT

Members of the Hood River Anti.

support of the California ORIENTAL Ex-
clusion League in their plans of adopt
ing a drastic law aimed against owner
ship or control of land BY Japanese in
that state. Geo. k. Wilbur, member
of the local association, declares that a
bill, as drastic as that of California.
which will prohibit ownership or lease
of land by any aliens, is being drafted
for presentation to the 1927 Oregon
legislature.
r. E. Scott, has written to Senator
Inman. of Sacramento. president of the
California exclusion league, pledging
the support of local men.
Mr.. Scott, too. has written as follows
to Secretary of State Colby:

lows: Also it is possible that japan
concede some abatement Of the exist
ing restrictions upon the rights of
Americans to hold real property in
Japan.
II beg to say for this association
that its members do not wish any ar
rangement made to prevent japanese
ownership of land in this country to be
modified in any folm by arrangement
for Americans to own land in Japan.
The majority of Americans do not wish
to own land in Japan.
ANY further injection of lower
standard into American farm life is not
to be thought of. American farm lie

SINCLAIR FINDS CAR
WAS EMBEZZLED

An interesting automobile ownership
case has arisen here. Sheriff Johnson
has received word from an insurance
company that a machine purchased
about six months ago by X. w. Sin
clair, was embezzled by a California
man who had purchased it on an in
stallment basis and who left the state,
selling the machine to a Portland
agency. The Portland concern sold it
to an automobile concern at The Dalles.
Mr.. Sinclair secured it when it was
sent to a sub-agency here for sale.
While Mr.. Sinclair. who recently re-
turned from a tour of California with
the automobile, has not yet been called
on to surrender the automobile, he is
momentarily expecting such action.
He expects to recover, however, from
the agency from which he purchased
the car

Tourist Travel Boon to Hotels

The heavy tourist travel through here
over the Highway has been boon to
hotels. Throughout the year the host
elries have been we'll crowded at all
times of the week. Accommodations
on week ends are rarely available, and
during such events as the Benson Day
celebration the hotels were unable to
take care of the crowds that came here.
The new tourist hotel to be erected
on the site of the old Wau-Guin Guin
summer resort will relieve the situa-
tion somewhat.

ABOUT SENATOR CUMMJNS

Some one has gathered together
eleven reasons why the state of Iowa
should re-elect Senator Albert B..
Cummins to the United States senate.
We recommend a careful perusal of
the information gathered together
under these eleven points and feel
confident that the people of the state
will consider this information when
they go to the polls on Novembe
second:
/. Born poor Raised on a farm.
Learned and worked at the carpen-
ter trade. Worked his way through
an academy. Has stood at the head
of his profession in this state for 35
years.
2. Because for more than twenty
years he has fought the fight OF the
people against entrenched privilege.
g. because he has powerfully
aided women in their long struggle
for suffrage and has labored faith
fully in his efforts to do justice to the
soldiers of three wars.
4. Because, constantly, from the
day he entered public life he has
been the unfailing friend of the farm
ers and working men of Iowa.
S. Because he advocates justice
and right on every issue that arises
and has the courage to stand by his
convictions.
6. Because of his eighteen years
he is the best informed and most
efficient public man in the state.
z. Because he wrote into the
Federal Law this sentence: The
labor of human being is not COM
modify or article of commerce"
8. Because, by reason OF his abil-
ity, experience, association, matured
judgment and tolerant disposition, he
has come to his period OF greatest
capacity for service to his state and
to the Nation.
8. Because he is an acknowledged
leader, as well as President tempore,
Of the United States Senate. Not
only is he an able and brilliant advo-
cate on the floor of the Senate. but
he also is powerful in committees
and wise in counsel.
10. Because, Iowa, just now at
the threshold of the greatest COM
mercial and industrial period of its
existence. has in Senator Cummins
spokesman in the highest legisla-
tive body OF the country who is a
leader in thought and purpose.
IL. Because governments opera
ton of railroads was a failure, cost
ing the tax payers more than a mil
lion dollars a day, besides resulting
in untold loss to the producer and
shipper, and Senator Cummins draft
ed the legislation which ended that
farce.

HOW To VOTE

The last legislature provided for
restoration of the circle at the top Of
the official ballot and for three ways
in which the ballot may be marked.
II the voter wants to vote a straight
ticket he may make an X in the circle
at the head of his ticket and it means
that he wants to vote for all the can
didates on that ticket. Or, IL he
wishes to vote a straight ticket ex-
cept for one or more candidates on
another ticket, he may make an K in
the circle of the ticket he is support
ing and then mark an X in the square
opposite the name of any candidate
on another ticket. Or, IL he wishes
to vote INDEPENDENTLY OF any party,
he may make no mark in the circle
but mark On X in the square opposite
the ne me OF each candidate for which
he wishes to vote. II will be well
for voters to study this and become
familiar with the proper way OF
marking their ballots.

A BABY BEEF CLUB
ORGANIZED IN COUNTY

In a recent meeting of the Audi
bon County Farm Bureau Board OF
Directors it was decided to organize
in this county Baby Beef Club.
The object in forming such a club
in our estimation are very important
along the educational line in know
ing the different points a feeder
would emphasize when looking for
a feeder. Also from the standpoint
of the block, in knowing an animal
when they see one and to pick an
animal that would stand as near the
ideal type for butchering. These
points are very important to a feed
er and it is very essential for young
men growing up on our Iowa farms
TO become acquainted with these be-
fore he is dependent on himself. AL
though club work may be critisiZed
from a financial standpoint, let us re-
member that experience sometimes
is a dear teacher, where on the other
hand we may profit by our mistakes.
Again we speak of keeping our
young men on the farm, and to the
judgment of those who have had the
experience of leaving the farm in
their younger days, come back with
the excuse that they left the farm
from lack of interest.
And now, dear readers, is it not
logical thinking that il we give the
boys and girls chance, letting them
have something of their own, start
ing them out with a bank account
and giving them a little publicity,
that we would not have the trouble
of keeping their interest on the farm?
Is 1T not our youngest habits and the
foundation we build while we are
young that determines what kind OF
q man or woman we grow up to be,
as to whether we are successful or
not? And / believe that the same

A district meeting of newspaper
men comprising eight counties in this
section Of the state, was held at JEFF
ferson last Friday. The object OF
the meeting was to discuss the print
paper situation and other perplexing
problems that confront newspaper
publishers at the present time. On
account of the heavy rains the night
before and during the early morning
hours, the attendance was not as
large as expected, but nevertheless
those who we're present received a
great deal OF valuable information.

THE CUMMINS BILL
FACTS VS. FALSEHOOD

The truth about the Railroad Law
as to campaign lies which are used
to help the democrats.
Lie No. l That the bill guaran-
tees the railroads 51a percent on
their stock. The bill guarantees the
railroads nothing. It limits the
profits and guarantees the shipper
against excessive rates.
Lie No. 2 That watered stock is
legalized. The bill absolutely for
bids consideration of watered stock
and bonds with relation to rates.
1t reduces rather than increases the
net income, which goes to the rail-
road owners.
Lie No. 3 That congress gave a
huge sum to the railroads when the
president gave them back to their

thing applies to our interest along
any agricultural line.
So we are doing those things from
this office that we believe will help
the young boys and girls who will
soon be working for their own in
terests.
Boys that fed calves last year in
other counties demonstrated by their
ability to feed that there is some
thing to the feeding game, because
they made money where some of the
old heads that have fed cattle for
the past ten or fifteen years lost
As to the Baby Beef Club let me
say that we are going to make drive
securing and enrolling members this
next two weeks. We have secured
Mr.. Petersen from the Iowa Beet
Breeders Association who will assist
us in the drive. He has had the
experience as a feeder and also as a
breeder and will tell us many points
about a calf that no doubt will be of
interest and educational.
The age limit for the boys and
girls enrolled in the Club is 10 to 10
inclusive.
The calves to be entered In the
contest must be dropped sometime
after the LIST of January, 1920, and
not later than September LIST of the
same year. They can be of any
breed, grade or registered, and OF
either sex.
The calves entered in the contest
will go on feed as soon as we can pro-
cure the calves, sometime between
now and December list. The contest
closes August LIST, 1921. The use OF
nurse COW will be permitted until
March /, 1921, and the boys can feed
anything they wish
The calves will be spotted" and
appraised by committee OF Breeders
who know value and then the boy
can select his calf. The boy can give
