GIVES STATUS
OF RED CROSS
MEMBERSHIPS
LOCAL EXECUTIVE sEcRE-
TARY SHOWS MINIMUM
AMOUNT NECESSARY IN
DRIVE UNDERWAY

Inasmuch as there appears to
be some confusion as to the
amount necessary in obtaining
membership in the Red Cross
Roll Call Drive recently in
augurated, Mrs. Grace Phillips,
local Executive Secretary of the
chapter, states that ST is the
minimum amount necessary for
obtaining a membership, while
the other fixed amounts are SIS,
$40, SIS, $50 and 500.
Mrs. Phillips states, however,
that any amount less than ST as
a contribution will be gladly re-
ceived with due credit given the
donor. All amounts less than 81,
the minimum for a membership,
will be simply credited as a con-
tribution, which will be just as
much appreciated as the larger
amounts from persons who are
more able to contribute toward
the cause.
Mrs. Philips and the other Of
ficers handling the drive, make
an appeal to all to send in their
contributions as early as possible
in order that Key Vests quota
may be fully subscribed and
readyefor recording when the
drive is concluded.
All donations may be sent to
the local secretary at her resi-
dence. 42l Duval street. where
they will be cheerfully received.

BATTING HEAVY
In CAMPAI
RELATIVE TO NICKEL A
GLASS CITRUS JUICE
MOVEMENT

TAVARES, Nov. 16.--(FNS)
Cooperating splendidly on the
nickel glass citrus juice cam
paign inaugurated recently by
Burton II. Schoepf of Tamiami
Trail Tours. Lake County, through
its energetic Chamber of Com
merce secretary Karl Lehman,
is batting about one thousand.
Lehman reports that several
packing houses have opened spe-
cial stands to serve juice either
free or at SC glass. Practically
every drink stand, coffee shop,
drug store and dairy stand in the
county is now featuring and
pushing the sc glass with their
demand steadily increasing.
adopting the slogan -All you can
drink for a nickel The Cier-
mont Exchange packing house
has constructed special room
on the main highway and are
serving freshly squeezed orange
juice to the travelling public. One
dealer has developed new and
popular drink known as frosted
orange juice" at a nickel glass.
Attending a convention dinner
in Orlando last week. Lehman
found the hotel serving tomato
juice, and he pointed out that
had the management served fresh
orange or grapefruit juice it
would have cost them not so
much as the tomato juice and
would have been more appre-
ciated by the guests and been of
real help TO the citrus industry.

At a meeting of the South
Side Association held at the High
School auditorium last night,
there were about 60 persons pres
ent, all of whom gave every evil
dence of being enthusiastic and
interested in the matter of or
ganization.
Chairman Henry Brewer gave
clear and comprehensive out
line of the aims and detectives of
the association and cited the po-
tential possibilities of the neigh
borhood if development is carried
on under the program fostered by
the association.
He then called for expressions
on the different issues and re-
ceived from several present.
Among the ideas and opinions
given were:
Approval of the group and the
idea of keeping the area a strict
ly residential section. Another
member expressed himself as be-
ing heartily in accord with the
movement and assured his active
participation. Others gave voice
to similar views, and expressions
indicating their appreciation of
the ideas of the association, and
the program for which it stands.
The chairman then presented
for consideration a constitution
and by laws, reading the pro-
posed document by articles. 1t
was advised that the constitution,
with several changes be adopted,
after which the following officers
were elected:

ELECTION SETS
new VALUE ON
G. O.P. STATUS
SHIFT OF VOTE PERCENTAGE
AND OTHER MATTERS ARE
NOW BEING DISCUSSED BY
PARTY MEMBERS
BY PRESTON GROVER
APP Feature Service

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-
Election returns indicate that the
country can take turn to Roose-
welt liberalism or modified Re-
publican conservatism by shift
of five or ten percent of the vote.
Statisticians have computed be-
fore this that five percent switch
of votes to the Republican side in
1886 in certain key states would
have rduced Roosevelt's over
whelming electoral vote very
sharply while a switch of ten
percent in other key sections
would have defeated him.
Now the switch of five or ten
percent of the vote in certain of
those fairly-well- balanced sectors
has given the Republicans a re-
sounding gain in the house and
an emphatic and more important
gain among the governorships.
(Where party success is concern
cd, governorships are far more
important than house or senate
places.)
A New Deal Blowout
In the house, both Democrats
and Republicans alike who had
held their places since pre-New
Deal days-before 1932-survived
the present election with scarce
ly an exception. The Democrats
elected in tn tide of 1892, 1884
and 1896 were the ones blown
out of office in 1893. II.
All of which means that in
spite of temporary losses the two
parties are pretty well bedrock
ed. each in its own bailiwick.
Wise politicians such as Postmas-
ter General James A. Farley and
Charles Nicholson, admiral of
Democratic party publicity, said
before the election that the ma
jor political battles would con-
tinue to be fought between Re-
publicans and Democrats "at
least through my time, and
yours.
New Hopes For 1870
Also, the Republican gains put
a new value on the COP. presi-
Dental nomination for 1870 Any
body who attended the 1886 Re
publican national convention
could tell that the party consid-
cred its presidential nomination
wasn't worth dime then, except
for paragraph of history, But
il will be choicer piece of real
estate next time.
And Here's Something Else
And that brings UP another
thing. From all appearances,
President Roosevelt believes and
his friends and many critics alike
agree. that his personal popular
ity still continues at a high level
Moreover. he remains determined
20 push his program. which is not
entirely complete and still sub
ject TO revision or repeal by its
foes.

Canada's Arctic Areas Are Divided by
Nature Western and Eastern Sections

for local consumption, and the So
called barren lands yield a pro-
fusion of wild flowers and moses.
Since the Seventeenth century the
territories have been an important
producer of furs, and have contrib
uted upwards Of $27, 900, 900 in furs
since 1922. Having in mind the
need of conserving the game and
fur-bearing animals as a means of
livelihood for the Indians and Eski-
mos. the Canadian government has
set aside large areas as native
game preserves.
While the fur trade is still a chief
industry, the future of the north
west territories lies also in the de-
velopment of its mineral resources.
Previous to 1929 the most important
mineral development was the dis
covery of oil on the Mackenzie river
near Norman.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1938-01-07

Canada's Arctic possessions are,
geographically, divided by nature
into two parts-the Western Arc
tic, reached from the Pacific ocean
and down the Mackenzie river; and
the Eastern Arctic, to which access
is gained from the Atlantic ocean
and Hudson bay. Brought about
by the overwhelming search for
minerals and by the use of aircraft
as a means of transportation and
exploration, impressions of the
Northwest territories have under
gone considerable change within the
past 20 years.
Once regarded as being almost in
accessible, observes a writer in the
New York Herald Tribune, many
areas are today within a few hours
flying time of a number of cities
and towns in western Canada. In
spite of the northern latitude, the
territories are not entirely regions
of perpetual ice and snow. The
winter is long and cold but in the
short summer the temperatures are
high and the long periods Of SUM-
light promote rapid growth of vege-
tation. In many parts Of the Mac
kenzie valley vegetables are grown

like q poor excuse when you're

And that had left the Irish boy
fog-bound.
Hodge had fumbled badly in think
ing Merry couldn't fight just be-
cause he wasn't the scrappy kind
with swollen sense of his own
importance and great eagerness to
make others concede it. When the
time came to do so Frank had shown
his speed, and the shock to his enc
my had been greater because of the
delay. Good military tactics for a
long campaign.
Another thing he had shown by
quickly stepping in between Barney
and Bascomb when the latter had
turned pugnaciously to pick up the
Irish boys slam about thimblerig-
gers. He had shown that he would
fight for a friend quicker than for
himself. Even Bascomb had caught
a glinmer of that truth.
Now, only for one thing, Mulloy
would have been sure of MerriwelPs
disappointed enemies were out to
smirch him with lie forged by mall

brought to his ears, and that wasn't
his way of reacting to pure bunk.
He would have laughed at it.
Still the faith Of the Irish boy
wasn't shaken. He told himself it

MOULD you like to make a
w chintz bedspread to match
your curtains? Of course, such a
spread must have seams in it, for
most chintzes are only SO inches
wide, while the average double
bed is about 81 inches wide. But
seams need not detract from the
beauty of the spread.
Eleven and a half yards Of 49,
inch-wide chintz will make this
spread and pillow cover for a
double bed. In the diagrams at
the right l have given the dimen-
sions for cutting these for a 81
inch-wide bed. It is best to cut
the center portions first; then cut
the 18-inch side sections for the
pillow cover; then the 10-inch
strips for pillow cover and spread.
This leaves a long 26-inch-wide
strip for the side ruffles of the
spread.

would all come out in the wash, but
he wondered when washday would
come round.
Football talk was in the air at
Fardale, for the date of the first
game lay close in the offing.
Coach Kane was said to be in a
low state of mind about the team,
but then "Old Kaney' had a habit
of being pessimistic before he got
the machine oiled up and running
well. And, of course, the opening
clash with Mayfield wasn't anything
to lose sleep over, anyhow. That
was in the bag, they said. 1t would
be just good warming-up practice
for State Second the following Sat
urday. That was when the home
'sMusketeers'' would have to step
into it to keep from being showed
under.
Frank didn't talk football, even
with his classmates, and he avoided
listening to it when he could. He
appeared to have his mind fixed on
other things, but Barney had a
bunch that that was mere outward
seeming. He certainly wasn't up to
scratch as his own cheerful self.
There were moments, in fact, when
something like an unhappy shadow
haunted his face.
He wasn't in the great crowd Of
cheering fellows that gave the team
a send-off Saturday, when it left for
Mayfield in the big school truck and
several private autos. Nor was he
conspicuous by his absence; for
those fellows, even if any of them
gave him passing thought, had
no reason to imagine he would ever
do anything they would want to
write home about.
Sitting alone in his room, he
heard the sounds of the distant
cheering, and the text book on
which he had been trying to fix his
attention was struck by the ague.
He dropped the shivering thing and
got UP to walk the floor like an ami
NAL Gagged from its rightful free
dom.
Mulloy came, while after the
cheering had stopped, and found
him still walking up and down.
"Well," said Barney, II hope it
won't break your heart to hear that
our dear roommate didn't make the
trip with the team today. He was
left in the lurch."
Frank felt like replying that some
body else had been left in the lurch,
but he didn't. It was late in the
afternoon when he made an excuse
to get away alone =.
The autumn woods were putting
on faint gay touch here and there,
but there was no faint touch of the
light and gay in Merriwell's heart
as he followed an old dirt road that

disaster had sounded like q hoax.
Unbelievers-and they were twenty
to one in the mass-had called it
baloney. Who had said so, they
wanted to know. And when told that
Pete Smith, Fardale's own reporter
for a city newspaper, was the au-
thority they had heaved signs Of re-
lief. That fellow just couldn't help
trying to be funny guy.
But when somebody called Dick
Springall, the Fardale captain, and
he confirmed the bad news the heav-
ems came crashing down.
Merriwel heard it from Bob
Gagg. Cages almost missing chin,
the bullying eyes behind his specta-
cles, and the husky croaking of his
agitated voice made him look and
sound like frog raising lament
from the depths Of dismal swamp.
Sand you better keep away from
that gang on the campus, Danny
Deever," he said. s'They're talking
about hanging slackers in the morn
ing"
A Stacker! That was how they
rated him. OF course it had come
from the coach or from Springall,
who had been present when Kane
had talked with him.
In his room, Frank stripped off
his clothes. Then, wearing his bath
robe, he made for the nearest
shower to wash off dust and perspi-
ration. He didn't whistle as the cold
water splashed over him. This
wasn't his day for whistling.
Mulloy was waiting for him when
he returned. "Have you heard the
shocking tidings, Frank?" he asked.
''I've heard Fardale was beaten.
That's ALL" Merry replied.
"Well, more details have come in.
The Grand Canyon was full of
empty tomato cans. He kicked like
a sick inchwsn Missed the bar

have been sad enough"
"It has been gummy day"
81 think that big shot is just an
other false alarm" growled Bar
ney. "If-and when-he makes an
other pass at me he'll get the
works"
There was a knock on the door.
'Merriwell wanted on the phone,"
called a voice.
s'Ask 'em to hold it one minute,
please" requested Frank, speeding
his dressing.
'Now," said Mulloy, "who would
be after calling you, Frankie?"
"Your guess is as good as mine.
II they'd said long distance was
calling I'd have been worried. I
told you that my uncle's illness was
what made me late about getting
here"
maybe it's something about
about football
Don't be silly, Barney. Nobody
would call me about that"
"Well, it's time We were called"
barked the Irish lad, "and told to
stop your ducking."
Merriwen was surprised, when he
got into the phone booth, to hear
the voice of Tad Jones over the
wire. The boy seemed to be all
choked up with excitement and
alarm.
