It will probably he Monduy night before le ports are received at headquarters from the rural parts of the district. Poor Jlest Givers. "A subscription to the Red Cross is purely a donation," said Campaign Manager Daniels today, "and Is a real test of patriotism. Buying of Liberty bonds and war stamps, altho real test of patriotism. Buying of Ited Cross subscriptions are gifts, the reward of which is a sweet conscience and the knowledge of a patriotic duty performed. "Many of the most generous con tributions we have received have come from poor people. While some of the contributors have not paid as much as It was estimated they could afford to pay, others have paid more than it was . estimated, they could pay." A woman who was a stranger in the city walked Into Red Cross head quarters Wednesday and made a $100 subscription. Not Delinquent.

The board also disposed of another embarrassing problem by refusing to tuke uny action towards prohibiting or sanctioning the holding of the Ju nior "prom" before school is out. The bonritl nfter discussing the rpicstion for some tune decided the best way out of tho dileina was to ignore it. This means that the annual junior "prom" will not be interfered with by the board nnd will be held commence metn week. The matter came up in the shape of n request by the junior class of the high school for permission to hold the prom before school closed. Last year the board r fused to allow the prom to be held until after the school year was ended. ''This action result ed in much bitter feeling and split the high school student body into two factions. The dance feature of the prom is the root of the trouble.

Some of the rooms of the Jackson school have only five or six pupils. However, the board members felt reluctant lo make this radical change and was only giv ing it consideration. But when the residents of the Jack, son school district heard of tile pro posal, they arose in arms.

This is caused by the terrific heat of the engine. The oil breaks down and the sediment crowds out a large par t of the good oil. As a result you get friction instead of smooth running.
