dent of the National League of Women
Voters. Miss Sherwin is paying a visit
to Douglas before beginning tour of
the large cities of the middle western
states She will be the principal
speaker at the dinner given in her
honor by the local league.
The committee in charge of ar
rangements for the dinner will offer

bers and their families and when

terested non-members will be given
an opportunity to buy tickets. The
tickets will be so cents each and an

manning places may be given to inter-
ested non-league members.

women of the United States

circles before she was elected presi-
dent of the National League of Women

the adult education of the citizens of
her country and has given up life
of leisure in the interest of forward
ing this work among women.

of the league as Miss Sherwin will go
no further west than Douglas. Mrs.

Flu n NDSB BACKED
BY LOCAL N E N

Members of the advisory board OF
the Salvation Army with Henry
Williams as treasurer expressed the
belief some time ago that a finan-

worked out. Mr.. Massey will be aided
by number of live wire assistants
and will meet them tonight for few
words of instruction. The meeting
will be at the chamber Of commerce
offices.
1t is earnestly hoped that the goal
Percy Morton of Phoenix is in Doug
las as campaigner. The Major says
he feels sure that the good people
of this community will do better
than in the last drive. He says "The
amount asked is not an imitation OF
cur needs. Demands for relief can
be more adequately met if more
money is used without any increase
of administration expenses.
During, the past eight weeks Cap
tain and Mrs. Payne, recently ap-
pointed to the Douglas command
have recorded in addition to their
ordinary work the following interest
ing figures.
Visits made to the homes of the
poorer families, 200. Public meet
ings held 49, Jail meetings held
every Sunday morning bringing the
gospel to 78 prisoners in eight weeks.
Nine visits to hospital for general
visits with 172 patients. Value of
literature given out $40. Meals pro-
vided to destitute persons 100. 80
garments, IL pairs of shoes, one
mattress given to needy ones. 8
persons given lodgings, six families
given relief IA applications receiv-
ed for employment and employment
found for IA persons. Two persons
given medical aid.
The Douglas Chamber of Commerce
and Mines has endorsed the activ-
tiles of the Salvation Army and has
issued a letter certifying that the
work of the Army is good and
necessary and urging that the peo-
pie of the community support this
drive for funds to the full measure

MAN
Is NOW VISITING
IN JERUSALEM

A Dispatch reporter has received
postal card from Meyer Stolaroff,
delegate to the American legion con-
vention held in Paris some weeks
ago. The card has stamp on it
which reads, Palestine, and half OF
the printing on the card is in English
and half in Jewish.
The card was sent from Jerusalem
and shows a picture of the Valley
of Joshaphat. Stolaroff writes that
one gets a very unusual sensation
from visiting this ancient city which
the average person thinks Of as nav
ing existed in the times of Bible
history and not as a community
of today.

State FAIR TO
Have EXHIBIT
FROM DOUGLAS

George B. Doubleday returned late
Monday night from an all day trip
into the Sulphur Springs valley in
search Of fruits and vegetables tfat
can be sent 10 the state fair at
Phoenix for exhibition. Doubleday,
representing the fair association Of
Cochise county and the chamber OF
commerce of Douglas, reports thai
the valley is full of fine fruits and
vegetables but that it will be neces-
sary to provide some means for gath
ering the various exhibits in order
to ship them to Phoenix.
Doubleday told Dispatch repre-
sentative that he encountered a Pc
culiar situation in the valley in that
nearly every farmer he interviewed
could think of nothing on his farm
worth exhibiting and yet, upon being
questioned further, each one finally
produced from one to dozen fine
exhibits. Doubleday says that this
situation is due to the farmer having
his mind on his harvesting instead
of on the subject of fair exhibits.
Arrangements are now being made
for someone to go to the various
farms in. the valley and gather up
the exhibits which will be brought to
Douglas, properly prepared and ship
ped to the state fair. 1t is expected
that out of the exhibit sent from
this district very large percentage
will receive high awards for the pro-
duce in this valley this year has been
as good or better than usual.
