circumstances and making the re-

burg. Within a very short time a
wire was received from him stating
that he would be glad to have the
train stop as requested to accommo-
date the football party.
This courtesy on the part of Sup

goodly number of rooters to accom-
pany the team and we hope all who
possibly can will avail themselves Of
the opportunity.

RED CROSS
DRIVE FOR
THIS MONTH
COMMITTEE REPORTED BUDGET
OF $2,500 FOR COMING
YEAR FOR RED CROSS.

The executive committee of Sew
ard county Chapter American REQ
Cross met Tuesday evening at the
office Of Miss Bourne, public health
nurse, and discussed plans for the
membership drive this month.
The committee on budget reported
that it would be necessary to raise
$4,000 to carry on the work for the
coming year. This may strike you
rather forcibly at first thought, but
when you stop to consider that the
public health nurse is paid by the
county chapter, things look differ
ent.
Miss Bourne is about the busiest
person in the county. She is now en-
gagged in examining the school chill
dren of the county, having finished
the gigantic task of the city pupils.
She visits the schools, looks out for
possible cases Of contagion and it is
more than likely that If there was
any way to prove it, she has saved
her salary sevesal times over in pre-
venting contagion in the schools, at
least her presence will in large mea-
sure tend to prevent the schools be-
ing closed as in former years at a
great loss Of time and money.
A number Of ex-service men have
been cared for during the past year
and the Red Cross has been on the
job all the time to relieve any con-
dition which require their assistance.
It is up to the people whether or
not they wish this work to continue.
True, money is scarce, but Red Cross
work is really conservation and If
this organization, working through
the schools, can save the almost an
pual loss in teachers salaries and
perform other acts Of merit, it IL well
worth the small amount each will
have to contribute to keep the work
yoing.

If AnybOdy Finds

If anybody finds red alligator
suitcase containing papers filed
with tariff statistics, a pair of
brand-new trousers. four silk
shirts and other articles, return
it at once to Representative John
w. Fordney. chairman Of the
House ways and means committee.
Mr.. Fordney returned from De-
troit on Pennsylvania train FRI
day mccning, arriving at Union
station at 1920 o'clock His
chauffeur carried several suit
cases to the car and nothing more
was thought about it until yes
terday afternoon, when Repre-
sentative Fordney happened to
have need of the suitcase.
The chauffeur remembered hav-
ing carried the case out to the
street, but whether he left it
there or whether it was jostled OF
the running board he was unable
to say.
The papers in the suitcase, Mr..
Fordney said. included statistics
on lumber production as well as
some on the tariff question which
he used in the late campaign. The
papers were of value only to him
self, he said.
