A. L. Creelman, the merchant, spent the first couple of days of the week with his family in Lewiston. Mr. and Mrs. R. 8S. Curless and daughter, Zora, of Melrose, visited friends in town the first of this week. Mrs. O. D. Hamlin and daughter, Helena, were guests last Sunday of Prof. Shattuck’s family at Ferdinand. D. H. Kube of Grangeville was in town Monday and remembered the Chronicle with a year’s subscription. Miss Ida Asker returned home Sun- day from Melrose, where she had been visiting Mrs. G. F. Whitson for sev- eral days, Mrs. Joe Coffman and two sons were here this week from Milton visiting their relatives—the Thompson and Fortin families. Mrs. Elsie Stockard and children are here from their home near Kamiah visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. D. A. McKinley, at their farm home east of town. On Thanksgiving night—Nov. 29th —the moving picture show will begin promptly at 7 o'clock, in order to get through before the K. of P. ball begins. Miss Ethel York, a schoolmam of Greencreek, was seriously injured in a runaway accident Wednesday evening near her home. Her upper jaw was broken and face badly cut and bruised. The next and 4th Lyceum number to be played here will be the St. Clair Sisters on the mght of Jan. 25th, and the 5th and last number for the sea- son will be the Rob Roy male quartet on Feb, 14th. Frank Arnzen, who was in town Saturday from Greencreek, says that his little son—born on Oct. 23—is getting along fine, and that any one who figures the baby has weak lungs has another guess coming. Governor Alexander has just ap- pointed Geo. C. Killmar of Winona as one of the three trustees for the North Idaho sanitarium at Orofino. Mr. Killmar takes the place made va- cant by the resignation of Géo. Erb of Lewiston. See W. R. Rogers’ notice in this issue giving his schedule of prices for hauling passengers. Will is now a full-fledged licensed chauffeur, He has the reputation of being one of the most careful drivers in the coun- try. Saturday evening about 6 o'clock, John Hoene’s fine residence near the public school narrowly escaped de- struction by fire. A bed in an up stairs room in some manner caught fire, presumably from a defective elec- tric wire, and required some very quick work to extinguish it by throwing the bedding out of a window. All danger was over by the time the fire-fighters arrived with the hose carts. Joe Reiner of Greencreek met with what might have been a serious acci- dent a few nights ago. He was re- charging the machine for his acetylene light plant and unthoughtedly set a lantern too close, which caused an ex- plosion of the gas. The only damage done was to scorch his face and hair pretty badly—besides scaring him out of about a year’s growth. This kind of work should always be done in daytime, when light or fire of any kind is unnecessary. C. E. Hayden of Ferdinand this week purchased a fine 8- months’ old Poland China hog from John Funke. Seven cars of cattle and hogs | were shipped from here Tuesday }|for Spokane and Seattle. }| market report fer prices. See All those interested in organiz- i}iing a town basketball team are requested to meet in Firemen’s! hall Sunday at 1 o’clock sharp. R. H. Rose of Des Moines, Towa, is here visiting his brother, Uncle Amos, the first time they have seen each other for twenty years. They are celebrating the event this week hunting deer on the Salmon. Red Cross Notes. (Contributed) Our representative and secretary, Mrs. Ora Parker went to Lewiston Sunday to receive instructions in the making of surgical dressings. We have been requested for some time to send some one to learn this work, as no one can teach this who has not had trained instruction and passed the re- quired examination. The course re- quires ahout two weeks. When Mrs. Parker returns she will organize a class and give a special day to this work. Now that our boys are in the} trenches this work is needed. Our long-delayed yarn has at last arrived and all those who desire to knit for the Red Cross are invited to call and get a supply. A donation of some kindling wood at Red Cross rooms would be greatly appreciated. The local branch is asking for un- hemmed flour sacks to be made into dish towels for hospitals. We are grateful to the Electric Co. for donation of lights. Word has been received from Lew- iston that the packets sent by the Cottonwood branch A. R. C. con-| tained the nicest assortment and were wrapped more “Christmasy” of any received, her country. Shame be on the mem- ber who lives within the city limits or only a few blocks away, yet seldom if ever comes. When we have the op- portunity of visiting the Red Cross rooms in other towns or cities and ad- mirethe amount of work they are doing let us pause in retrospection and see it we have been loyal enough to do our most for our home town—Cotton- wood branch. You may not be satis- fied with Cottonwood but Cottonwood is not satisfied with you. The crime is just as great to be disloyal to your home organization as it is to your home country. Any woman able to use a needle and thread can help. It is easier to pull the throttle than to push the load. Then let us be mind- ful we once knew these lives and put our shoulder to the wheel: “Then let us be up and doing With aheart for any fate Still achieving, still persuing, Learn to labor and to wait.” ea ge Guaranteed work and correct eye service, Dr, E. A. Schilling. Methodist Church Notes Sabbath School at 10 a, m. | Morn- ing worship at 11 a. m. Evening worship at 7:30 p. m.

Tax Notice With each week the women of Cottonwood and surrounding vicinity are taking more interest in the very necessary Red Cross-work. Every meeting finds some loyal women busy at Red Cross headquar- ters or doing Red Cross work in their homes. A greater membership and more workers are needed. The Red Cross society is an immense elemosy- nary corporation created under special act of the United States congress, as a result of the Geneva convention, and its charter and by-laws are organized and accepted by congress and willful breach of its rules by members or outsiders is a penal offense and pun- ishable under the Federal Law. Every one is urged to do not only what they feel they can but more, for the more one forces themselves to do the more they find they can do. Evéry one must do, not her bit but her best. One of our country members Saturday afternoon stitched six comfort bags— then walked to town several miles to deliver same and returned home with more work—besides giving her boy to You can pay your taxes through the First National Bauk.
