the first group did not seem to
know what it was all about, except
that they were arresting Com

they had arrested the workers and
only declared the charge after the
police lieutenant mad coaxed them.
Questioned About Bolshcvism.
At the station the police ques-

know if they were "Bolsheviks. "
They also wanted to know if the

A letter received from Henrietta,
Oklahoma, reports that the miners
of the Henrietta coal fields, where
they have ben forced to work under
the 1917 scale since quite some time
ago, are extremely bitter against
the Lewis machine and have re-
ceived with enthusiasm the news of
the new union being organized. In
every mining camp in this field the
distribution of the call for the Ma
tional Miners Convention has in
stilled new hope in the miners, and
organizations are being formed
which will serve as a basis for the

mining fields, will have large dele

grateful; and gratitude, like other human
principles, comes to us by cultivation;
either from pressure Of circumstances or
from self-imposed discipline. But in these
prosperous times, few of us take the trou-
bic to impose much self discipline, or to
cultivate the noble principle Of thankful
ness, but give full rein to all the selfish
instincts of the animal nature, and espe-
cially to the greed for money getting; and
out Of this state Of affairs grow all the
strifes Of the home and country; all the
strikes and convulsions arising from the
contentious between anarchy, which at
tenpts to eNtort that which is not freely
given, and the only remedy that we see for
this fostering state Of affairs is some awful
calamity, which shall wiring from us the
fragrance Of human sympathy, or some
tremendous impulse that will cause the
people to put check upon the selfish
propensities and compel us to acknowledge
our mutual dependence upon each other as
we'll as upon the Lord Of Heaven. So, wei
come to Thanksgiving day, and let us learn
lesson Of gratitude which shall bring Us,
instead of a curse, d blessing from our uni
Nersal prosperity.

RED CROSS DRIVE
GOING OVER FINE
IN CARBON COUNTY

Mrs. G. R. Northrup, chairman of
the Carbon County Red Cross roll call,
reports work throughout the county as
being very good and that the quota of
members will be reached, although
some Of the various sections of the
county are tardy in making reports
A report from Mrs E. G. Russell,
chairman of the Luther community,
reports a total of $3.50 for that sec
ton. A dance was given Nov. II and
this helped materially in helping
make the splendid showing.
It is pointed out by Mrs. Northrup
that membership in the Red Cross
has significance in three different
ways. One becomes a member Of the
local chapter, the national organiza-
ton and the league Of Red Cross So
cieties all by the single act of sub
scribing his dollar.
The league of Red Cross societies
to which Mrs. Northrup refers, is a
world wide association to promote Red
Cross organizations in all countries,
and to encourage and develop those
already existing in So nations. Dur
ing the fiscal year ended June 30 last,
the American national Red Cross rem
dered aid in % foreign disasters
from earthquakes to famine. $4,000
alone was spent in aid of flood suf-
ferers in Switzerland year ago this
fall. Victims of an earthquake in
Bulgaria last April received $4,000
or more.
Mrs. Northrup concludes her state
ment with the following quotations
from a recent message of Frank b.
Kellogg, United States secretary of
state:
"A fact little appreciated by our
people at large is the powerful influ-
ence the American national Red Cross
is exerting toward the creation of in
ternational amity and understanding
among the peoples of all nations. AS
our only semi-official relief agency
for the expression of the sympathy
of the American people and the exten-
sion Oh AID TO OCHef naClOHS III tlhlee
of great disasters, it is an indispen-
sible part of our national life. 1t is
one of our most convincing answers
to the assertion that we are a nation
of materialists.
Hardly month passes that this
organization does not answer, on be-
half of the people Of the United
States, the call of humanity in distress
in some distant land Every citizen
of the United States should consider
it a privilege as we'll as duty to
support the American Red Cross by
becoming a member"
