. NOW FOR THE RED CROSS. '

iae Lioeny Loan campaign being over, the country can now turn its

auenuon to tee nea cross campaign, which will 6tart next Monday. To be

more accurate, it has already started.

Laxe county nas been asked to donate an allotted sum to the $100,000,000

Bed Cross CE.mpaign. There is only one week to raise this quota in. It is

absolutely necessary to raise this amount in six days and it is the solemn

and patriotic duty of every man, woman and child to contribute his share

We cannot take care of our soldier boys without the aid of the Red Cross.

One of these days in France our soldiers will be wounded and killed. The

tRed Cross Is their only solace in their dying hours. Its work is such that 6 .

no other organization can duplicate it, so'when you are asked to Join the Red Cross and to contribute to its war chest, you ought by all means to do so. The United States is at war. It is our war. Everybody must do his

or her share. The boys at the front are doing it and we who are left behind

MUST do our share- There s no two ways about it- your work of giving will never be done until the war Is over. You may as well be reconciled to

AN UGLY SITUATION.

The war department explains that the slump of nearly a million "men in the conscription law registration under its' estimate Is largely ascribable to the fact that a large number had already enlisted and that the European

war has pracically put an end to immigration. Perhaps this is true, yet it seems that these factors should have been taken into consideration before

the making public of the estimate. The things which looks especially bad

however, Is that the states that have contributed most heavily to the enlistments are the states that show uo best in the registration, whereas those

that fall most sadly below the estimate are those that were the least re-

sponsive to the call for volunteers. Making every allowance, the stern fact

remains that in certain southern and far western states there was flagrant

evasion of provisions of the conscription law, which in some communities

appears to have been tantamount to organized defiance. This the govern

ment cannot afford to ignore, and happily there appears no disposition on

its part to do so- The guilty men must be arrested and punished, and

tinder the law they can be forced into the performance of some useful serv

left there should be no hesitancy in imposing the penalty even though its

character be degrading. The idea of imprisoning many thousands of men

iTWTwaM'-ohio an it would hut add to the burden of the nation in war

and would withdraw from -production a great host that should be forced

to work under taskmasters as veritable serfs. This may sound harsh, but

but we must remember that these men have defied the government in its hour of -peril by refusing to accept honorable service and that only by inflicting dishonorable servitude upon them can the public be properly impressed with the heinousness of their offense- For the government to display lenity toward sucn offenders would be a fatal error, because it would be placing a premium on that which is so closely akin to treason that the Un of demarcation is hardly discernible.

WHAT MAY BE NOW EXPECTED. Tb9 determination of Mayor Smalley of Hammond, to put an Instant stop to Infractions of city ordinances due to visits of Joy-riders and orgy-hunters to the resorts across the state line In Burnham, has met with unqualified approval of the -people of the Calumet region no matter where they live. The disgraceful scenes that are constantly happening on the roads and streets leading to the white light district have been outrageous and it Is high time that concerted action be taken by the authorities of the various cities to put an end to them once and forever. There is no question but that publicity Is the best remedy to use. There Is no more sterner deterrent to law infractions than publicity. When events occur that are so numerous and so shameless that they cannot even "be put In public print It Is high time that the perpetrators be yanked into the limelight If parents permit their sons and daughters to visit Burnham and the latter return thence in such a manner as to shock people along the streets, their arrest and publio pillorying will follow. Husbmds and wive who steal away from each other suiTeptitioudly to visit Burnham and get Into trouble that always follows sooner or later, may expect no mercy from the public prints. The limit seems to have been reached, even if it does land In the police and the divorce court-
