ANOTHER TRIUMPH FOR
 FAMOUS LIBERTY MOIOK
Army Planes Whiz Over Glaciers
 and Wooded Wildernesses.

Ford-built Liberty Motors carried the four army airplanes which on October 20 completed the 5000 mile journey from Mitchell Field, Long Island, to Nome, Alaska, and re- turn. The fleet was greeted over New York City by a blotilla of forty army planes which escorted it to Mineola. The returning planes touched their wheels to earth at 3:15 in the afternoon.
 The Alaskan Flying Expedition, commanded by Captain St. Clair, undertook the journey to demon strate the durability of modern air planes and motors, and to effect the establishment of an aerial route to the Northwestern corner of the American continent and Asia. Such route would bring mail from Alas ka to the states in two or three days, whereas, the present method of transmission requires thirty days
 "Talk about service,' said Capt Street. "Those planes and motors sure stood up. Why, the only trou' ble we had on the entire trip was caused by the worst bit of weather l Nt GNGI llOWl lhIOhSn VI ""A to fly through. We had everything rain, snow, hail and sleet, clouds fog, mist. But we kept right or flying

Altogether, I was rought trip. l never wan to fly through such weather again | but the planes stood it magnificent ly Instead of battered hulks, flop ping to earth after winded flight they looked brand new Even th' turnbuckles were polished and th' motors looked as if they had Jus come off the testing block.

THE RED CROSS By MRS. J. I. MORRIS.

Declare yourself, wear your Red Cross button conspicuously, proad- lv. Hang your Red Cross emblem in your window at home. Snow the quality of Marianna and Lee county mercy. Make It loo per cent. Enroll your entire family and ask all your friends to Join. Every Red Cross button means Red Cross dollar ready to alleviate human suffering. Is there man or woman in Lee county who can afford not to wear one? Even the wounded heroes of the war gave aidto the Red Cross. They were three veterans of the war, their silver Victory medals in their lapels told that. The can on which one of them leaned added a sad note, but their faces beaming gratitude told a req lstory. One of them was of the Sixth Marines, one of the 32nd Division and one of the Fighting First. These three lads of the large number of wounded | ex-service men being trained al | the Georgia Institute of Technol- ogy. walked into the headquarters of the Fourth Roll Call of the Rec
 Cross last Tuesday afternoon witt $150.00. They were commlttet
 to present the donations of then
 comrades, voluntarily given, with

FtIy IIuIY yOUIo, REHABILITATION STUDENTS OF THE GEORGIA TECH.

After reading the note from the rehabilitation students of the Geor- gia School of Technology, do you think it is worth while to be mem Der of the American Red Cross?
 It will be a great misfortune if the Red Cross with it's magnificent organization and splendid purpose of useful achievements should have to lose any measure of it's efficiency because the special interest and enthusiasm of war has ceased. The organization of the great American Red Cross has been built to serve humanity and humanity needs its service in peace, just as we'll as it did in war.

As 8 result of meeting between F. W. Galbraith, Jr., National Com nlander of the American Legion, and Charles D. Orth, president of the National Security League, a general conference of every estab- lished organization in the country, which has been active in American izatien work, will be held soon.
 MT. Galbraith said after the meet ing: "The effectiveness of the va rious organizations engaged in Americanization work is greatly de- creased on account of the dupllca- ton of effect. Its whole success depends upon our ability to consoli- date into one powerful and united army the many smaller units which are now taking pot-shots at the enemy"
 That the Security League is Tn accord with Legion Amerlcanizatlon plans and that Legion cooperation will lend tremendous impetus" to the worlx was the declaration of MT. Orth, who called upon all patriotic societies to unite in a general scheme of operation.

Red Cross nfet us in camp to help us adjust ourselves to the new con ditions of camp life, and 1t was the ministering angel into whose care we committed those we left behind.
 When shot and shell and gas and hell had given vent to their deadly desires and maimed and mangled bodies of heroic soldiers were brough tback for medical attention and tender, home-like nursing, Gods American Red Cross radiated its sweetness and tenderness and loving care that saved us and through their message saved anxious hours at home. When back to the states on transports and in hospitals and homes, in debarkation centers, m remuneration centers-this Mother of the World was there.
 Now in our rehabilitation period while we are attempting to take our place in the world, and for thousands of us, a new place, this Mother % Mine is standing by watching and smiling and giving as- sistance in every way she can. We, the Rehabilitation Boys of the Georgia School of Technology, in memory of these facts, send this small donation and ask that you feel that we are grateful to you for what you have done. Remem- Der the widows mite, they of their abundance cast in, "We, out of
 our modest means, have done what
 we could" May blessings be upon ] you forever and eternity will re- ward.
