NEWS RECEIVED WITH JOY
Letter Deals With Life In Hospital
But Does Not Indicate When
He Will Leave.
rmm Thursdays raily. ,
Last evening Mr. and Mrs.
Michael Hild, received a letter from
their son Sergeant Emil J. Hild, in
which he tells of his still being in
tjie hospital in Trance, on Novem
ber I'I'.rd, and eighteen days after
the time in the erroneous report of
his having died of nrieumonia.
Mr. Ilild has at all times since
receiving the first message, telling
of the death of his son, held that
the report was not true, as he
knew that his son was alive four
days after the report of his death
by the government in the message.
Investigation by Congressman Reav
is, developed the fact that the mes
sage was erroneous, and that the
young man was seriously wounded,
which means was gassed to uncon
sciousness. The letter coming now, is receiv
ed with much joy by his parents,
and other relatives, and also the
fact by all of his friends wherever
known.
WHAT IS THE MATTER .
OF A HOSPITAL?
From T!ursrtay's Daily.
Just at this time there are a
number of homes in this city where
there is every member of the home
down. It seems impossible for one
to get the required aid. for their
care. The physicians, who call on
the homes often find it necessary
to go into the houses in the dark,
light a lamp and find out their
condition, and often to see tiiat the
fre is going, and ether little things
which by reason of the illness of
all the household they cannot at
tend to. There are a number cf
families where these conditions
prevail at this time. and more
where they have gotten over the
worst of the disease. and some
member of the family are up. and
are trying to care fcr the others.
An emergency hospital in this city
would be an excellent thing, and
an institution of this kind, would
be an excellent thing, for the many
cases which are now continually be
ing taken to out"of town institu
tions. The Turner Hall is a place
which could easily be converted in
to a place for the . reception of
emergency cases, and there are
many workers, in the various be
nevolent societies of this city who
could are fcr tle patients for-shcrt
hour shifts, and relieve the suffer
ing of the patients, and remove the
added hazard, by lack of care for
them during sickness.
RED CROSS DRIVE
MOVING ALONG
The Progress Towards Universal
Membership Moving: Ahead Rap
idly, And Will Win.
From Thursday's Dm.'.
The drive for the Red Cross Uni
versal membership, is bearing good
results, and is still being pushed by
the loyal citizens, with the idea of
mailing and presenting to all the
citizens an opportunity to become
a member of this universal fratern
ity, with the single purpose -of
benefiting the whr.le country. Be
sides the boys in the foreign camps
and those returned, as well as those
in our own camps, there is a broad
field for the exercise of the ener
gies cf the people in relieving the
suffering of the people all over this
land who from some peculiar cause
have been distrsesed beyond mea
sure. We all know that .we have to
meet the (fistresrfed and discom
forts of this life as they come in
every day affairs, but there is out
side of this occasions, which cause
widespread suffering, and isolated
cases, where the very peculiarity of
the circumstances, demands that
they be given succor. There is
much work for this society to do
and there is scarcely enough money
to any ways go around, let alone
there being -any to spare. The man I
who says, "What are they doing
... " .. . x, ,
with all this money, now the war is
over," has an opportunity to look j
around and-see what is doing in ,
this world and to find out the needs j
of the people and then lie will not !

Last Thursday evening at their

Influenza epidemic has and will
probably make their assembling a
difficult problem for some months.
After the business or tiie evening

missed, subject to a call, when
oomeUiing should be required for
their consideration. The meeting
was one of utmost cordialiiy be
tween the members, and where ev

bers as though" they were brothers.
They had some surprises in store,
which was gratifying. On Nor. 7,
when the first report came that (the
armistice had "been signed, and the
excitement ran high, the Home
Guards patrolled the streets until,
after the midnight hour and after j
that time, went to the restaurant of !
L. W. Russell, where? they ate their !
supper. When the lieutenant ask- j
ed for the bill, he found that the
bill was "narked paid. j
The matter was taken up by the j
meeting and . a resolution passed, j
thanking him for the kidness. and j
