of the Mississippi valley districts,
a second call for relief funds has
been made by President Coolidge,
and thise call doubles the quota
asked from Cody. making it now
$500.

for 800 from Cody and very
little has been subscribed up to the
present date. The new minimum
quota for the relief work is $1O,-

flooding of the valley of the Miss
issippi and its tributaries renders
thousands homeless, forcing them
to seek refuge on higher ground.
