ON THE RED CROSS i Editor News: Fot more than two weeks there baa boon in tho hands of J. M. Chase, an appli cation blank to bo signed by the citrons of Eaglo Vnlloy for the purpose of obtaining a Charter to form a local chapter of the Ued Cross. That this application is not be ing signed as rapidly as it should be must bo due to the fact thut it is not generally known to be here. Now, tint our country is at war, our Nation need us all evor. man, woman and child of us--and tho people of this vallov should be quick to respond. Alone, wo couUl do little, but united with the thousands of other small chapters forming the National Hed Cross, untold bene fit may be dorived. Many of us would like to go to the scenes of conllict to act nurses or ronder whatever assist ance thj occasion demanded. O.v ing to the fact that wo hav homes and families wo cannot d A 1 t 1 t mis, uui we can lorm our loca organizations and do our "little best." My understanding is, thatasid from assisting "our boys" at th front, sickness, poverty and suf fenng at homo are .also reljevet by the Red Cross. Looking at it from a purely self jsh standpoint, a local Chapter would form an association where men and women might meet so cially and benefit each other by fn exchange of ideas if nothing else. In this solemn hour when on country's fortunes are at stake when all that she has stood for and stands for, is jeopardized b the hazard of impending warfare we snouiu not stmnK trom any sacrifice in her behalf. No de mand on our American citizen snip snouiu go unanswered anc ! here, where we can do so little, this or some other work becomes (a duty as well as a privilege. J Wp should do what we can and I am anxious to have the petition filled as qdickly as possible, that we may get to work. Yours truly, Mrs. J. C. Bowen. Army Y. M. C. A. Hon. Judge Anderson, Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Godwin and Merrill Jasper were Richland visitors Sunday in the interest of the Army Y. M. C. A.

In the afternoon they held a meeting at Carson and in the evening at Halfway, return ing through here Monday. They reported much interest in locali ties visited and felt their trip was a grand success. A TIME FOR BLINDNESS. Tharo Is sometimes ri greator charity in seeming not to seo our neighbor's trouble than In trying to relieve It. "Let mo alonel" is the prayer of many a torturod heart when tho curious, the officious and the tactless force the door of its place of desolation, albeit they bring' wlno and oil. ft. " l I . V-' .
