PRESCOTT. THE
MOUNTAIN CITY

Prescott is a mountain city, even
as Phoenix is valley city, the city
we left when we came to Prescott.
Phoenix was semi-tropical, but Pres
colt was cold, the reason being it's
altitude, $3.50 feet However the
mountains rise up as protection
from the cold blasts of the middle
west. 1t has been called "The
Jewel of the Mountains" place of
great natural beauty, and also the
Cowboy Capital Of the World" the
first rodeo having been held here.
1t is the "place where the west re-
MAINS" It is named for w. H. Pres
colt, historian.
On the way out of Phoenix we
saw hundred empty refrigerator
cars, and l Learned they had return
ed for the second lettuce season, the
first having been ended. The first
lettuce season is November, Decem-
ber, the second in March Arizona
supplies lettuce for 100000 peo-
pie. Strawberries begin in March,
cantaloupes in June. The road led
up and up rising from altitude 1000
to 1000 feet. We soon saw the end

ton was superseded by desert.

MORGAN CHAPTER OF ID. A. v.
LAUNCHES DRIVE TO ASSIST
WARTIME VETERANS OF
WORLD WAR

Chas. Urban, commander of Nor
gan chapter of the Disabled Amer
ican Veterans of the World War,
has completed arrangements with
Clinton Kramer, commander of the
Ohio Department of DAV to offer
DAV facilities to serve World war
veterans and their dependents.
Due to ever changing laws and
regulations, innumerable wartime
disabled veterans do not under
stand their rights to benefits Many
service connected claims remain
dormant in the Veterans Admins
tration files for lack of prosecution.
In prior years, claims have been re-
jected on the basis of inadequate
physical examinations and other
reasons that could have been avoid
ed had the veteran had the ad-
vantage of qualified representa-
tive to develop and present his
claim Thousands of war veterans
who suffered gunshot wounds,
gassing and other service connected
disabilities, come within this group
of denied claims, Commander Ur-
ban states that these cases may be
reconsidered under the more liberal
provisions that now prevail, and
the local chapter is anxious to lend
assistance to those who apply.
Commander Urban further states
that legislation enacted into law
July 19, 1899, provides benefits to
widows and dependent children in
cases where the veterans admins
tration acknowledge service con-
nected disability even though it may
not be of such severity as to war
rant compensation payments during
the life Of the veteran. Payments
under this law authorized to the
immediate family dependents even
though death is caused from cir
cumstances unrelated to war SER
vice. Commander Urban believes it
the duty of every veteran to know
his rights for future protection to
his folks.
The local chapter will assist in
developing these claims, and will
present them either through Ber-
nard Southard, National Service Of
ficer of the DAV, located at the vet
erans administration, Dayton, Ohio,
or George F. Farling, National Ser
vice Officer of the DAV, located at
the veterans administration, Cleve-
land, Ohio. These representatives
are experts in this function, having
had 20 years experience in handling
veterans claims. The service is of
fered free of charge and without
obligation of any kind to all World
war veterans and their dependents

vice officer, McConnelsville, O.

plane 200 ampules of thorotrast,
which is used for brain surgery.
BY the same plane, the Red Cross is
shipping 1000 pounds of surgical
dressings to the French Red Cross,
it was announced.
Many large contributions to the
American Red Cross war relief fund
are being received, among them
$4,000 from the General Motors
Corporation; $4,000 from U. S.
Steel Corporation and subsidiaries,
and $4,000 from the international
Harvester company, it was announc-
ed May 22nd.
You and / must not fail to re-
spOnd to this appeal. We are the
outpost of humanity If the Red
Cross is to perform it's duty in time
to save lives, we must act now.
This is one time when we can't
'let George do it," While we are
trying to find George, life may be
lost and mercy blacked out Let's
give to the Red Cross war relief
today. Let's contribute through the
local chapter, and show the country
that our community still knows
what the word humanity means.
Contributions may be left at any
National bank in the county.

taken thereof to do any work: Or

Useless vines are cast into the fire
for fuel; to let them live means
that strength of the soil is drawn
out that might be expended else
where better; these vines occupy
space for nought; they wind their
tendrils about growing shrubs only
to hinder their growth. The very
wood of this vine is worthless. Be-
cause this vine is useless it is cast
into the fire. This parable is ap-
piled to Israel and Judah directly

there is no fruitfulness, no life of
service. The nation or individual
that units itself for the highest SER

RED CROSS NEWS NOTES

Together with more than 3,700
Red Cross chapters in every city
and county of the country, our To-
cal chapter is pleading for money
to mitigate the intense and horrible
suffering of our fellow men, wom-
en- and children in Europe. The
Red Cross is appealing for at least
ten million dollars for this war re-
lief fund. Our chapters quota is
$1,000.
We have waited, hoping almost
against hope, that the war would
not spread but soon would end
Against great pressure, we have de-
layed this appeal for funds hoping
that we could, without it, finance
the war relief expected of us. The
Red Cross societies of all the coun-
tries involved in armed conflict in
Europe have requested aid, except
Germany.
We must send relief as needed
and not too late to be of use. We
must send clothing, bedding, shoes
indications, surgical supplies, food
A crises in the history of the world
and threatening the entire world
has arrived. Governments may fall,
leaders may be deposed, countries
may be destroyed, but people must
be aided to survive. Made in the
image of God, they must be preserv-
ed that His will may yet prevail
A unique national blood trans
fusion service has been established
under the direction of the Belgian
Red Cross. Fourteen fully equipped
blood TRANSMISSION centers have been
established since September 1, and
the reports state that immediate de-
livery of supplies of blood "is as
sured in case of need" 1t was es-
timated that 10000 donors would
be required.
Upon the urgent cabled request
of the British Red Cross. the Amer
