THE RED CROSS DRIVE
Millions Should Pour Into Its Lap
Until Its Treasures Overflow.

Frightful calamities used to sweep
over the world without any means
of mitigating them. The earth
abounded with wars and pestilences
and fires and floods, but there was
no organized system of relief, and
people just had to suffer and meet
their awful fate without hope of as
Isistance.
In these times of plenty and COM
fort, when there is abundant food
and clothing and all needed supplies,
it is unthinkable that people should
be left to suffer from disease and
sudden misfortune. But to bring
quick and adequate relief, some SOC
iety must have ample funds and
workers so that its supplies and re-
lief parties can leave at once for
the scene Of any disaster. Also there
is a world of ordinary misery and
suffering which needs the constant
work of remedial and preventive
agencies. In these fields the Amer
lean Red Cross has done its mar
vellous work
The creation of this superb mach
inc for the relief of suffering has
softened the miseries of life for
iinnumerable people. 1t took the vic
Tins of war and nursed their wounds
on the battlefield. 1t cared for the
orphans. 1t has assisted the dis
abled veterans and their families.
Wherever disease and death and
suffering from any cause have
broken loose, there the Red Gross
has gone, a symbol of life and hope
and succor 1t has saved millions
of families from despair and from
anguish greater than they could
bear
| A ministry which accomplishes so
much to bind up breaking hearts and
make it possible. for people to live
through their troubles, is the noblest
product of our century. The millions
should pour into its lap until its
treasures are full overaowing.
There will be plA of need for
more funds, even some of the
folks of Decorah forget TO give be-
fore the date set for the end of the
annual drive.

JUDGE TAYLOR THOUGHT
DIFFERENT
Rlas sky Man at West Unior Re-
verses Himself When Judge
Gives Him Seven Years.

According to a West Union special
in Tuesdays Des Moines Register,
Harry Crawford, blue sky specialist,
paid the victims of his smooth ton
que $4,000 in the hope that he
would be able to cut his sentence by
doing so.
Yesterdays paper contained the
information that he drew the checks,
all right, but when he received sem
tence of seven years in prison, he
stopped payment on the checks, and
has now put up $1,000 cash bond aai
appealed his case.
Tuesdays story of the affair is as
follows:
Harry Crawford, blue sky artist de
luxe, who pleaded guilty month ago
to cheating by false pretense, under
three indictments after his trial un-
der one of the indictments fore
shadowed his conviction, was sem
fenced to a prison term by Judge
Fl. L. Taylor.
In the month that has intervened,
Crawford, who is claimed to have in
herited a large estate, has paid about
$4,000 TO the Clermont men who
mad invested with him in blue sky
stock, leaving only a few small ac-
counts outstanding. The delay of
one month in passing sentence was
to permit him to do this.
However, Judge Taylor imposed a
penitentiary sentence of seven years
under one indictment, and a fine of
$500 under each of the other two,
saying that to permit an offender of
this class to escape with merely
paying back the money he had Sc
cured would be to encourage other
offenders to follow the same line.
Theodore (Doc) Roy, who had
pleaded guilty TO the same offense
in connection with the deal by which
George Smith of Oelwein parted with
$4,000 for Atlas Wheel company
stock, and who was given a seven
years sentence, is already behind the
bars at Fort Madison. L. J. Reysa
and James LaVere, the other two
concerned in the Atlas Wheel COM
pany stock deal, are in Jail in West
Union under indictment, LaVere hav-
ing been brought from Colorado, af-
ter County Attorney James d. Coon
Fey had made a three weeks fight
for eXtradition.

THANKSGIVING
DAY TOMORROW
Our People Will Again Give Thanks
To God for the Blessings of
The Past Year.
NATION HAS REASON
FOR THANKSFULNESS
Many Nations That Forgot God and
His Laws Have Gone Down
Into the Dust.

The founders of this country be.
lieved that God is managing human
destiny, and that if faithfully obey
ed he would guard and preserve
those of his children who ventured
across the stormy sseas into this
unknown wilderness. And even be-
fore they had gained a real foot
hold, and while their future looked
most ominous, they appointed day
of thanksgiving to God.
Now there is the same danger that
our people will forget the God who
led the fathers, as that some men
who pray with all their hearts while
in some bodily peril, will forget God
when they recover and life seems
smiling. But if this republic is to
endure and be worth preserving, it
must not lose that reliance upon
the divine force that heartened our
forefathers in their hard struggle.
Many nations that forgot God and
His laws in the past have gone down
into the dust, and nothing is left
of their greatness but decaying
ruins.
The American people in their
thoughtless way appoint holiday of
thanksgiving to God, and then use
it for football games and sporting
life. They mean no harm and they
need the relaxation. But it would
not hurt them bit to spend some
part of the day in Thanksgiving
devotions.
Most people, no natter how din
ficult their lot, can see some brighter
side of their life for which in COM
mon. decency they ought to give
thanks. And as for the nation, it
has abundant reason for thankful
ness, that it passed through world
shaking catastrophe with less suf-
fering than other peoples.
And the real thanksgiving day is
no mere thing of personal feeling,
but it seeks out the poor and needy
and makes them share in the general
we'll being. A thanksgiving obser-
vance that does nothing for those
who are in doubt whether they haye
reason for thankfulness, observes the
letter rather than the spirit of the
occasion.

DELEGATES Going TO West Union

The Decorah Commercial Club re-
sumed their Monday luncheons at
the Winneshiek last Monday, and
about 25 were present.
After the luncheon +. C.. Bailey
announced that he had received a
letter from Stricklan GiIiand, the
humorist lecturer, who desired to
come to Decorah in January and
address the club at their luncheon,
and it was voted to accept his Of
fer, which was $25 and his traps
portation from Prosper, as he speaks
at Mabel the day before coming here.
Another proposition brought up
was the matter Of sending a club
delegation to West Union next Sat
urday to meet with the railroad COM
mission and protest the removal Of
the night and morning passenger
trains on the Rock Island. 1t is
expected a large delegation will go
from here Saturday. The company
wants to discontinue these trains
north of West Union. We don't be-
lieve it should be done and all pres
sure should be brought to beartto
keep the trains on. Et

Albert Lea in Auto Accident,
Freight Train Hits
Their Car.
BOTH OF THEM
SERIOUSLY INJURED
Mr.. Tarvestad Was Formerly in the
Music Business in Decorah,
Moving to Albert Lea
Some Years Ago.

The daily papers of Friday con-
tanned news of the serious injury of
Mr.. and MrsA j. C. Tarvestad, form
er residents of Decorah, last We'd
nesday when their automobile was
struck by freight train at Albert
Lea. Following is the dispatch:
Albert Lea, Minn.,-Mr. and Mrs.
j. C. Tarvestad of Albert Lea, are
in hospital here in serious con-
dition, suffering from internal injur-
les received Wednesday night when
an automobile in which they were
riding, crashed into a Rock Island
freight train at Broadway street
crossing.
Mrs. Tarvestad, whose condition is
regarded by physicians as critical,
suffered severe cuts about the face
and body and internal injuries, while
her husbands chest was badly crush
ed. When their car was struck by
the train, Tarvestad was pinned be-
tween the seat and steering wheel,
the engine of the car falling under
meath.
Tarvestad, who is about go years
old, is a prominent music dealer in
Southern Minnesota, with headquar-
ters in Albert Lea.
Albert Lea papers state that un-
less some internal hurts develop,
both patients would pull through in
fairly good shape. They have many
old friends here and all hope Mr..
and Mrs. Tarvestad will enjoy a
Espeedy and con1f'ete recovery. !.

GAS HAS Been
STRUCK HERE
Reports From Northeast Part of
County Gives News Of Gas
Being Struck on Farm.
HAS CAUSED STIR
IN THAT VICINITY
Struck at Shallow Depth on Simon
son Farm and Good Flow
Given Out.

Reports from the northeast part
of Winneshiek county are to the eff
feet that a good flow of gas has been
struck at a shallow depth in a well
being drilled on the Simonson farm,
and it has caused considerable stir
in that vicinity.
This sounds mighty good and en-
couraging, especially when the pros
pecting for oil and gas in this coun-
ty is to taken up Immediately by
the Decorah Pioneer Oil and Gas
Co. The big derrick has been un-
loaded this week and is being haul
ed southeast of Decorah about four
miles, and we understand will be
set up on the p. Bake farm, and
drilling operations is expected to
start soon, just as soon as the rig
builders arrive and get things in
shape.
With gas already struck it looks
like the company is going to strike
their objective here. 1t will mean
big things to our people and it looks
like proposition that it would be
pretty nice to have little stock in.
A great many have bought, and
many others have signifed their in
tention Of buying. If they strike
oil and gas II simply means for
tunes for many here.
