WHAT Wil l. YOI DO
WITH THOSE WHO REUSE 1
(By E. Dahlinger, Publicity Mat-age
Red Cross).
The various teams are bringing in
their reports and in the majority of
cases they have nothing but praise
tor our Shawnee citizens. Yet there
are those who are responsible who
absolutely refuse to buy a member-
ship for the pitiable little sum of one
dollar. What should be done with
an individual who has no more grati-
tude for the services rendered by our
boys? The local Red Cross organ-
ization is keeping these names uua
unless thc-y voluntarily come, to th«>
war office and take out a Red Croat}
membership their names will be pub-
lished. Shawneo citizens should
know the name of every one who re-
sides in our midst who refuses to
lend their aid to this great cause.
Don Machenheimer received a let-
ter from his brother, Bill Machen-
heimer, today. In ,the letter lie
states that lie is now in the hospital
from a machine gun bullet wound
received the day before the armistice
was signed. He states that he ex-
pects to be home by spring. A tele-
gram was received from him yester-

THERE never was a better Christ-

mas. You know why. We owe it to
ourselves, to our absent ones, to our
present friends—Yes, even to our
Country to have more Bloom and
less Gloom in our Homes on Christ-

The Creator himself picked our
Flower# to beautify and bless and
brighten. You cannot do better than
follow His example. Come and look
at our FLOWERS and PLANTS,
ask them if it isn't so, and watch
them nod their heads in assent.
