The work of this charitable organization is just as important as thatif the men in the first line of defense, the fatality list of the Red Cross in active operation on the field of battle is just as large as that of the artillery or infantry. But unlike any other branch of the ser vice, the Red Cross must be financed by the free-will offerings of the Amer ican people. Box Butte County Must Raise $7 000 This Week. The Country Will Raise $100,000,000 What Are YOU Going to Give The Boys will soon be marching away, the tramp of the armed forces will soon be followed by the belching of artillery fire; the American troops many ot them from Nebraska and Alliance will be facing this blast which has claimed countless thousands during the past three yeare. Thousands of young men have been saved by the untiring work of the Red Cross iu the field and thousands of Nebraska boys will be saved. But to do this work the Red Cross must have funds and the funds must be raised by the people of Box Butte county, of the state of Nebraska and of the nation. vAs a part of the great force that is to finance the Red Cross work you are asked to contribute, one dollar, two, five ten, a hundred or as much as you can afford. The funds arc placed in the hands of the treasury department of the United States an official receipt is sent you direct from Washington. .You can make your donation and play your part in this greatest of all wars i ight here in Alliance by donating to the Red Cross. sJb Do it now, before the reports of the dead and injured are ringing in your ears then t may be too late to save the young men who are going forth in the faith that they will be cared for by your doaation.
