Massachusetts goes republican,
and Maryland and New Jersey go
democratic, while Kentucky
slides buck republican which, of
course, shows that we are for the
League of Nations and that we
are not for it. As mar as can be
figured the returns denote an ev
en break, and the man who can
get political consolation out of
Tuesday's vote is d blood relative
of the late lamented Col. Sellers.
It has been the way of the
world that wheu people take too
great an interest in the welfare
of others, and the welfare of oth
ers' children, that the over-insist
ent too often forget their own
brood and live to see them the
objects of pity. And so it is a
mighty tine thing to begitt your
propaganda at home.

Whereas, The Red Cross is
recognised as the greatest foe to
distress, disease, disaster, and
death ;
Therefore, be it resolved; that
we, the Hillsboro Post No. 0, of

selves on record as being heartily
in accord with the wor k still be

Monday night, when several
stores were entered and plunder
carried away by what is thought
to be an organised gang of burg

Portland, or some place in the
state of ashington.
Eriekson s garage was entered,
and the safe rirted, although no
cash had been left in the recep

Eriekson had banked that after
noon.
Thev then' visited Pegg & Ca-
dy s Hardware More, w here they
took several suit cases, pocket
knives and other articles. Dean
the druggist, was next visited,
and cameras went into the grab
bags, along w ith ivory cased mir
rors and other valuable notions.
Bishop Bros, were relieved of
20 pairs of high grade shoes, two
bolts of dry goods, some silks,
ribbons, etc, and the McGee store
was looted for 19 pairs of shoes,
a pair of rubber boots and three
bolts of dry goods.
Sheriff Alexander has been try
ing to get some clue to the burg
lars, but says he is nt sea, as well
as Portland officers, who have
been undergoing a like experi
ence in suburban districts.

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE
MENTIONED IN BIBLE
'I commond unto you Phoebe, our
sister, who is a servant of tho Church
which is at Couchrea," wrote St. Paul
to the Rowans, "that ye nsaist her lu
whatsoever business she hath uetnl
ol you, for she hath been a suceoror
of many and of myself also."
Phoebe, explains liibllcal history.
was a woman who went about nursing
the sick and teaching them hotter
method of living. 1' hoc be was the
first public health nurse.
Publlo health nursing, which la one
of the most Important enterprises lu
the peace program of the American
Red Cross, Is not a new movement,
but It Is one which heretofore has
never received Its Just meed of atten
tion as a factor lu inulutalnlng the
health of the nation.
Phoebe's sister In the twentieth cen
tury Is the community nurse who
teaches hotter, cleaner living. Heeause
the betterment of public health Is now
definitely accepted as an Individual
and a community responsibility, the
Red Cross will make a definite effort
to raise the standards of living In Hie
United States by urging the employ
ment of public health nurses In all
cities, towns and rural districts, par
tlcularly In those where thor are no
organised public health activities. A
healthier, happier America that la
what the Red Cross la striving toward
In Its Roll Call the first weeks In No

AMERICAN RED CROSS
With the Red Cross societies of
twenty-six nations co-operating as
members, the League of Red Cross
Societies Is now actively engaged in
extending Red Cross efforts through
out the world, says a cablegram to the
American Red Cross from Sir David
Henderson, director-general ot the
league.

MOTHERS MUST NOT DIE,
SAYS THE RED CROSS
Sixteen thousand mothers dlo In
childbirth every year In the United
States of America, more than are thus
sacrificed In any other country of lui
portance In the civilized world. The
American Red Cross has announced
Us belief that thsse mothers, the very
flower of the womanhood of America
and heroines every one. shall no longer
die through Ignorance or neglect, It
the public health nursing resources ot
the country can possibly be extended
to give them the necessary care. Thl
Is one of the reasons tor the Third
Red Cross Roll Call which begins Sun
day, November 2.
MERCY WOMEN PRODUCE
FORTUNE IN GARMENTS
More than 8,000,000 women and girls
participated In the sewing and knit
ting of the American Red Cross dur
ing the war. Most of these workers
will be active In soliciting members
for the Red Cross for 1920, during
the ten days ending Armlatlce Day.
When it Is remembered that these
women and girls In two years' time
produced nearly $100,000,000 worth of
surgical articles and garments, Inelwt
Ing more than 375,000,000 surgical
dressings, the fact that they are to
aaslst In the Roll Call is a practical
assurance that universal membership
will be achieved.
