PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREICI ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICE) NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES A FITTING FINISH "Me nnd Gott!" Did you ever hear ot the above expression or read ot it daring the past four years? An al leged man, who claimed to be a close associate ot the Deity, but always placed himself even above the God ot all civilized peoples, who was elected according to his own confession to lead a chosen people in their task of conquering and subduing the entire world, who attempted through com mercial channels, through that his toric institution, the American brew ery, and through propaganda that did not stop at seditious practices or ev en sabotage and murder, who a few hort months ago was revered by more than a hundred million people in Central Europe, and feared by three or four times that number, who no longer than a week aso was com mander of the -great Hun military machine, composed, as he had been pleased to state, of "supermen" who could not be defeated in war, who felt himself called to rule the world is its entirety, and cause all peace loving peoples to tremble with tear, when the name of the great German war lord was mentioned, he of the many addresses in which he proclaim ed that "God is with our wonderful armies," and that they would ulti mately be victorious over all comers, he, William II, Emperor of Bermany, King of Prussia, ruler of Saxony and a dozen other little countries in Eu rope besides many colonies, is today but Old Bill Hohenzollern, who can not stay in Germany, dare not go to Austria, France, England, or Rus sia, held as a common outlaw in Hol land, despised by every nation in the old world and the new alike, a party to the most disgraceful peace any ruler ever consented to and await ing the fate ot an early, and uncer tain death, that is coming, he knows not how. May the God you have per haps defamed more than any other living man have mercy on your poor, withered, diseased soul! RED 'U4WH RHM CLOSED "DER TAG" By Rudyard Kipling (Kipling's poem was never more timely than today when the German braggart is seeking to escape the im pending disaster.) Tju boasted the day, and you toasted tli e day. And now the day has come. Blasphemer, braggart and coward all. Little you reck of the numbing ball, The blasting shell or the white arm's fall. As they speed poor humans home Tou spied for the day, you lied for the day. And worked for the day's red spleen. Monster, who asked God's aid divine. Then strewed His seas with ghastly wine, Kot all the waters of the Rhine Can wash thy foul hands clean. Ton dreamed for the day, you schem ed for the day. Watch how the day will go, Slayer of age, and youth and prime (Defenseless slain for never a crime) Thou art steeped in blood as a hog in slime. False friend and cowardly foe. Tou have sown for the day, you have grown for the day, Yours is the harvest red. Can you hear the groans and the aw ful cries? Can you see the heaps of the slain that lies. And sightless, turned to the flame split skies, The glassy eyes of the dead? Tou have wronged for the day, you have longed for the day, That lit the awful flame. Tis nothing to you that hill and plain Tield sheaves of dead amid the grain; That widows mourn for their loved ones slain, ' . And mothers curse thy name. But after the day there's a price to pay For the sleepers under the sod, And He you have mocked for many a day Listen and hear what He has to say: "Vengeance is mine, I will repay." What can you say to God? w. s. s. SCXPION BERTRAM) DIES OF INFLUENZA MONDAY The local Red Cross rooms will be closed until next Wednesday, Novem ber 20. w. s. .

REPORT OF CROOK COUNTY CHAPTER RED CROSS A Year of Real Work Accomplished And Excellent Results In A Financial Way Following is the Summary of the work and the financial statement for the year for the Crook County Chapter: Crook County Chapter was organ ized one year ago Nov. 3rd and re ceived its charter Nov. 8. During the year two Branches were organized, one at Powell Butte and one at Paulina, and six Auxiliaries, Bear Creek, Suplee, Grimes Chapel, Upper McKay, Riverdale, and Rob erts. All these branches and auxil iaries have been contributing their full allotment of work to make up the chapter's quota. Our work room has been equipped with five electric sewing machines and a cutting machine. The cutting machine will cut fifty garments at one time. This lightens very mater ially the work of the committee in this line of work. That you may know something of the work conmleted bv the wnrklnir department I submit a statement from our worKing cnalrman, MrB. R. W. Rea, from her production report: Bed shirts, 1,058; Prs. Pajamas, 164; Bed Jackets, 317, Women's House Gowns, 120; Children's Dress es, 110; Comfort Kits, 145; Bed side Bags, 30; Property Bags, 20; Wash Cloths, 75; Sweaters, 119; Socks 372 pairs; Gun Wipers, 15000; Bath Towels, 149; Hand Towels, 160; Sheets, 50; Handkerchiefs, 173; Nap kins, 15. Surgical dressings T-binders, 32; Abdominal bandages, 140; Many tail Bandages, 330; Tea Towels, 61; Infant Blankets, 8. This does not include 1162 surgical dressings and 600 yards of bandages shipped to the surgical dreslng, in Portland, prior to the granting of our Red Cross charter. Besides these ar ticles, produced by the Chapter, two tons of used clothing for the Belgian relief have been shipped. In September the Home Service Section was organized and is now ready to take up its work in real ear nest. Representatives for the Sec tion have been appointed in every organization in Prineville and throughout the county to co-operate with the H. 8. S. in its splendid work. During the short time the Section has been working it has contributed helpful advice and assistance In some twelve different cases. It is the aim of the H. S. S. to be to the families at home what the Red Cross Is to the soldiers over there. ' We who remain behind depend up on the courage and efficiency of the soldier at the front to help win this war. We owe him debt of grati tude which we cannot repay and which he Is not worrying about. But he will fight better tor knowing that while he Is away the folks at home need lack for nothing In time of em ergency and anxiety, which friendly Interest and ample resources can sup ply. The Red Cross can not take his place, but the Home Service Section can be depended upon to do many thing for his family that they can not do tor themselves and which he cannot provide for during his ab sence. We may need only to supply Information of some kind, but that will he given promptly and accurate ly. Whatever it may b that wt shall have opportunity to do, we shall do through the 11. 8. S. of the Red Cross. Through the kindness ot our pat riotic clttxens we have been able to establish' headquarters In the Masonlo building In the room just east of the work room. There will be someone In the office In the afternoon of each day from two to three, who will bs glad to answer questions In regard to anv Rod Cross matter.
