SOLDIER PLEADS
FOR RED CROSS,
WOMAN'S CLUB
Private McDonald, Escaped
FrorrK Hun Prison Caijip,
Tells How Red Cress .
Saved His Life.
Private Frank McDonald of the
First Canadian Mounted Rifles ad
dressed the members of the Oma
ra Woman's club at the open meet-

ing neia jvionaay atternoon in me
club rooms ' at the Y. W. C. A.
Private McDonald, who is in Oma-
ni xo am in ine nca ross vnrlsl
mas drive, said he owed his life to
this great organization of mercy.
"If it had, not been for the Red
Cross, my bones would now be
lying on German soil," said the
soldier, "for I was a prisoner in a
Hun camp for a year and I , was kept
alive by the parcels sent by the Red
Cross. Frivate McDonald gave a
graphic picture in a few sentences
of the terrible conditions in the
camp. The men were forced to eat'
garbage and other refuse and when
the first Red Cross parcels came
they were so weak they crawled on
their hands and knees to receive
them. He and six companions kept
alive for six weeks on oatmeal and
a little tea. After drinking the tea
they dried the leaves and smoked
them. The Germans forced the
prisoners to work, many of them
too weak to stand, and many of the
Canadians crippled themselves by
burning or placing their hands and
feet between box cars on the tracks
to that they would be unable to
work. These heroic men felt that
it was dishonorable to work for the
Huns as it would be to fight for
them. Private McDonald did not
tell of his escape from Germany as
he said the story was too long, but
he said that when he and his
friends reached Holland they were
immediately given food and cloth
ing by the Red Cross and helped on
their way. . ,
The Germans did not steal the
Red Cross parcels and they always
delivered them for the (reason that
this1 food kept the men alive and
they,, therefore, could force them to
do more work. . , -
The speaker made a strong plea
for the support of the Red Cross,
urging people to give even more
now that the armistice was 0gned
and to continue to give until every
American was on his own soil. v
Community singing was v led by
Dr. Jennie Callfass and Mrs. George
B. Darr recited several war poems.
Mrs. Mary I. Creigh, as1 leader of
the Current Topics department -introduced
Rev. J. N. Wilson, who
orave a short talk on "Women's
Work in the Reclamation , Period."
During the ' business meeting
which preceded the program each
member pledged a stated sum to
the victory commission and Mrs.V
A. L. Fernald, president of the
club, explained the project to send
two ( women ; from Nebraska to
France for work in the furlough
houses. These women must be
club members. ' Omaha women will
send their applications to Mrs. M.

Railroad Agents Report .
; Crop Conditions Perfect
Railroad agents in Nebraska
seuuing a post-season crop ana sou
report say that the farmers are
practically through with their corn
husking. They add that the new
crop of corn has been cribbed "in
better condition than usual. Farmers
as a rule are holding the greater
portion in anticipation of higher
prices next spring and summer.
The fall wheat, of which there is
as unusually large acreage, is re
ported to have gone into the winter
in better condition' than usual, with)
J- - T
every indication mat next summer
there will be a bumper yield.
In the. range country, owing to
the unusually warm fall and open
.winter, cattle have gotten along
without close feeding and are in
prime condition for this season of
the year. Generally there is ' an
abundance of hay and coarse feed,
but up to this time, but little of it
has been used. "

excessive use of meat or beer
or over-exertion and over-heating. Swollen hands, ankles and feet are
due to a dropsical condition, often caused by disordered kidneys. Natu

uric acid, which settles in the tissues of the feet, ankles, wrists or back

MAYOR OPPOSES
PASSING BUCK IN
CITY PURCHASES
'
Council in Wrangle Over the
Matter of Selecting Agent
to Succeed Dean
Gregg.
An argument as ti whether the
city shall continue to have a pur
chasing agent or not was a feature
of the city council meeting Monday.
"I object to any commissioner
'passing the buck' to a purchasing
agent," declared Mayor Smith.
"Each commissioner should be made
responsible for the purchase of sup
plies for his own department."
Commissioners Differ.
Most f the commissioners dif
fered with this view. Mr. Butler
declared that "a purchasing agent
of the proper caliber would save the
city his salary many times over."
Mr. Butler estimated that the city
buys $350,000 worth of supplies in a
year. A good, experienced purchas
ing agent at a salary commensurate
with his ability would save a large
percentage of this, he said.
Gregg Resigns.
Dean Gregg, who has been pur
chasing agent under the new admin
istration, resigned last week. The
question is whether to continue the
office or let each commissioner buy
his own supplies. Gregg received a
salary of $1,500. It is proposed to
get an experienced purchasing agent
at a considerably larger salary.
A committee composed jof Mayor
Smith and Commissioners Ure and
Butler was appointed to confer with
some of the purchasing agents of
some of the big Omaha business
firms and report to the council what
can be accomplished in the way of
money-saving by such an official. It
is proposed then to pass a new ordi
nance, clothing the purchasing agent
with larger powers and seeing that
he "delivers the goods." 1
