The official ax of Director Gen
eral of Railroads McAdoo has land
ed just below the ears of number
less railroad lobbyists, pensioned
1 lwyers, publicity bureaus, political
fixtures and chanters of the glad
r Train, “Let well enough alone.”
f*1r. McAdoo has ordered that no
' avenues shall be expended for the
above mentioned purposes. Many
citizens protested againt railroads
influencing legislation, but this
element in our community was
looked upon as "enemies of capi
tal,” although the charge they
make has been a evident as the
"•esentcoal shortage. Now Mr.
r.icAdoo sustains the claim of
these citizens by his order that nc
money shall be used "For any po
litical purpose or to directly or in
directly influence the election of
ar y person or an election affecting
any public measure.' Thousands
of lawyers throughout the country
will be affected, as large staffs
have been maintained by the rail
roads. No one will be allowed to
i'iia oa U'$ 'asses hereafter. I

Sore Throat
“You may not look upon it seriously, but a sore throat indi
cates a weakness in the bronchial tubes. If neglected it may
soon develop into some chronic complaint.
People who are troubled in this wray are most susceptible to
influenza, contra# pneumonia readily, and fall easy victims to
consumption.
To remove this irritation, soothe and heal the inflamed mem
brane, there is nothing equal to
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
It gives tone to the weakened tissues of the throat, strengthens
the bronchial tubes, and at the same time builds up the system.
When the throat is healthy, influenza or consumption germs
cannot obtain a foothold. Above all things never neglect a
child’s throat, for it may mean years of suffering for it in after
years.

RED CROSS 13 CHALLENGED
Chapters Throughout Southwest Are
Urged to Double Their Efforts
to Take Care of Brave Sol
diers ‘'Over There."
Red Cross chapters of the South
west are urgently requested by the
headquarters of the Southwestern Di
vision, American Red Cross, at St.
Louis, to mobilize all their forces and
prepare tor a surprisingly big drive in
the spring.
From all signs and intimations com
ing front Europe in veiled cablegrams,
from persons high in the conduct oi
the war, and from hints dropped from
Washington, the number of Americans
who will be in Europe by spring will
be a great surprise.
It is admitted, on high authority,
that there are thousands more sol
diers in France than it was thought
there would be. From preparations
being made at cantonments and from
the numbers now in transit, there will
be many thousands more in Europe
within a short time. They not only
will be In Europe, but they will be In
the front line, so present advices point
out.
This all goes to show that Red Cross
workers will have to double up ou
ihelr work and provide comforts for
our own boys and at the same time
continue to aid French, Italians and
Servians.
It is up to chapters to inform their
members of the necessity for more
sweaters, wristlets, helmets, mufflers
hospital garments, surgical dressings
etc. Hundreds of thousands of each
of these must be made to take care ol
the boys in the spring.
The time to start the preparation it
now. The chapters realize that it takes
lots of time to get all of the necessary
articles together, and each one wil
want to make a good showing when
the shipments are made.
Of course, the thousands of Ameri
can soldiers will need Red Cross
nurses to care for them. Forty thou
sand is the number estimated by thi
aergeon-general for the near future
The nursing service of the Red Cro3;
offers many inducements and undoubt
idly many of the patriotic women ol
the Southwest will join it, so that they
£an go to France and help in the fighi
lor democracy.
The American Red Cross has app-o
priated $4,771,990 for work in Ita'y be
tween November, 1917, and May, 1918
according to word received at thf
headquarters of the Southwestern Hi
vision, American Red Cross, at St
Louis. The amount was fixed a?tor s
mrvoy to determine Italy's needs.
