C. M. Wann will take care of publicity matters in Hays and Mr. E. C.

Waldo will attend to this work in Ellis. The supplies for the A. R. C. drive are now on hand at headquarters and the various quotas will be sent by mail or delivered at the home or office of the volunteers.

This week volunteer pledge cards will be sent to the various chairmen. If you, chairmen, fail to see me at Hays, please continue and solicit the help of others. By next issue of this paper I hope to be able to announce the Chairman of Public Speakers Committee. Mack Sennet's 66 1yf -T 17 4 I trand Theatre, Hays, Kansas Two Days, Commencing Ellis County is supposed to raise $2880 for this drive. This means about one dollar for each voter of the last general election; Consequently we expect a personal interview will be necessary.

Letters to all the clergy of the county in care of parishes have been mailed this week. Next week the supplies will be apportioned so that everyone will have a chance to do hi3 charitable share towards the noble work of the American Red Cross. We do not expect any adult to give less than one dollar, for the re ceipt of one dollar entitles the donor to wear a Red Cross Button, 1920. Fcr information on the progress of the Drive and all preparatory news kindly consult the Ellis Headlight, The Free Press, The Ellis County News. Respectfully, Fr.
