Henry T Meyriek, a discharged
Canadian soldier, for the third
time within the last few months,
assailed the Red Cross authorities
for help. He wouldn't take food
Or an order for meals at restaur-
ant, but must have money.
The first time Meyrick came
through Salem he was making his
way to Marysville, Cal. He needed
help. He got it from the Red
Cross.
The second time he honored the
city with his presence was few

his way from his headquarters"
in Marysville to points north"
He needed assistance that time
and got it.
This time he had paid his re-
spects to points NORTH" stating
to the Red Cross officials that he
had just been discharged from the
public service hospital in Port
land, was still unable to work and
was on his way to his ''headquar-

than | have to pay upon a little house Of
