 A special effort has been made to in- sure the presence of all the workers and member of each army has been ap- pointed to get out all the members of the organization. An excellent musical programme has been arranged and a. record attendance is expected by the leaders of the army.
 The enthusiasm displayed during the present campaign by the members of the allied armies has been highly gratifying to the officers and it augurs well for the success of the campaign. While the mem bers of the armies did not expect to meet with the same enthusiastic recep- tion accorded them when engaged in the war drives, they have not been dis couraged and have carried on their work with all the vigor and thoroughness they displayed in the war campaigns.

 Dr. Boswell, who will make the prin- cipal address today at the luncheon, is the man who has done so much in fight ing tuberculosis in Mississippi. It was largely through his efforts and as a re- suit of the fine showing made in fight ing tuberculosis and In preventing it's spread that the legislature of Mississippi appropriated s1.25o,o0o to construct a san- itarium between Jackson and Hatties- burg
 pr. Boswell is said to be a most pleas ing and forceful speaker and his state- ment about the results which have been attained in Mississippi in fighting the disease is expected to prove highly en- tertaining and of great value to the workers in this campaign.

A number of the committees are evincing the keenest rivalry and the work of the allied armies is proceeding with almost wartime enthusiasm.
 OLD WAR DAYS

 "The campaign is progressing satisfac- torily," declared J. Frank Rushton, field marshal of the allied armies. last night. ''The workers are displaying the old war time spirit and are doing their work with a thoroughness that is highly grat- flying. It is especially important that every worker be at the luncheon today for there will be important announce ments and information given out about the campaign that every worker should know.
 "If we can continue the present rate for the last three days of the campaign, success is assured. It merely remains for the workers to continue until the close of the week the fine pace they have set during the first three days of the cam paign."
