PROCLAMATION

The president of the United States 5ias called upon the people of this country for an American Red Cross war fund of $100,000,0(10 and this vast mm of money must be raised by voluntary subscriptions to the American Xted Cross by the loyal and patriotic "men and women of our country. Next to the preparation of ammunition and "recruiting of army and navy the most Jmpoftant step In getting ready for war Is to build up an effective Red Cross organization, and- when the call Xomes the Red Cross must act quickly, tt must take care of a vastly increasjti army and navy; It must therefore trow with both branches of the nation's1 fighting force. The declaration tf a state of war with Germany means that the American Red Cross must prepare Itself fully to take care of the soldiers of our country who will be tailed upon to go to the front and participate in the great war that is to be carried on upon foreign shores. We have been at peace with ourselves nd all other nations for so long a time that the necessity for a large Red Cross membership has not been "elt until now and In consequence thereof the membership of the Red Cross In the United States Is less than In any other country of any consequence In the civilized world. America, the richest and most patriotic country In the world with a population of nearly 100,000,000 people, on March 1. 1917, had a membership of only 500.000. Japan at that time had a membership of nearly 2,000,000, Russia. 1,500,000, and France and England more than 1,000,000 each. We are now practically engaged In this (Treat war to the Fame extent as France and England, and the boya of' our army must be looked after by those who are left at home to pursue their usual vocations. The president rf the- United States and likewise the president of the National Red Cross society has set a:;ile one week from the ISth to the 25th of June as "Red Cross Week" and within this time the vast sum of $100.000,000 must bo raided throughout the United States. Hammond's proportion of the amount of this $100,000,000 has been fixed at $25,000 and this amount must be raised by the people of our

city before June 26. Hammond has already furnished more volunteers to the army than any other city of its size in the United States. Hammond people have always responded most generously in time of need and whenever disaster has overtaken the people of any locality. We have never hesitated to go to the front and render every assistance possible when a calamity of any character has made it necessary. The campaign is now on and the generous people of our community must respond as liberally as they can so that when the campaign is closed it will be found that more than the amount allotted to our people to be raised for this purpose shall have been contributed. Every person who contributes to this fund automatically becomes a member of the American Red Cross society. I, therefore, as mayor of the city of Hammond, Indiana, most earnestly urge upon the people of this city that they give as generously In dollars as they Lave in the flower of their manhood who have responded to their country's call, and it Is my earnest desire, that every lover of liberty and freedom within lour borders, devote some time during this wek In assisting in this noble work. JOHN" D. SMALLEY. Mayor of the City of Hammond, Indiana.

GIRL MISTER!

Lovely White Skin! Strain lemon juice well before mixing and massage face, neck, arms, hands.

By all means, girls, prepare a lemon lotion to keep your Fkin flexible and young looking. You will soon realize that true loveliness does not mean the powdcry-look or waxen colorlessness of some hot-house flower, but is typified by the velvety softness of your skin, your peach-like complexion and rosy-white bands. At the cost of a small Jar of ordinary cold cream one can prepare a full quarter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin softener and complexion beautifler, by squeezing the Juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white. Care should be taken to stran the juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon juice Is used to bleach and remove such blemishes as freckles, tiatlowness and tan, and is the ideal skin softener, smoothener and" beaut ifler. Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant lotion and massage It daily into the face, neck, arms and hands. It should naturally help to whiten, soften, freshen and bring out the roses and hidden beauty of any skin. It is simply marvelous to smoothen rough,' red hands. Adv.

(By trailed Press.) NEW TORK, Juno 13. Another sensational development in connection with the finding of the body of Ruth Cruger, pretty high school girl, came today whpn Consuelo la Rue, a ypung woman who said she furnished Mrs. Grace Humlston with the information which led to the unearthing of the .Cruger girl's body, was found hysterical and maimed in a vacant lot beside an apartment building. Her screams had attracted a policeman who found her half clad and her left leg broken in two places. She had jumped out of a second story window. She told the officer two men had attacked her in her apartment after telling her that "she would not tell any more." At the hospital she asked to see Mrs. Humiston but the police refused to let her see any one and from police sources came the suggestion that the la Rue girl's mind had been unbalanced by realfng ot the Cruger crime.

Mrs. Humiston declared she known the girl.

ESULT OF

R

UNREST

(By United Press Cablegram.) LONDON', June 19. A republican may be in the making in Spain, according to meagre advices which sifted through the Spanish censorship today. Personally King Alfonso commands the respect and confidence of his people, but the anti-monarchists are aiming at the German influenced ministers and the German dominated court with which the King is surrounded. Economic unrest has contributed toward furthering the republican movement. Dispatches received here today Indicated that the anti-government forces had affected a combination and formally announced their determination to enforce such changes "s may be expedi

ent to make the sovereign will of the'

people prevail." The anti-government party has heretofore never been able to unite but recent reports that a new ministry of violently pro-German sympnthies was suggested combined with the paralysis of industry throughout the country brought all factions together. One other factor, it was reported, was the case with which the military forces wrung concessions from the government. Indicating In the few of the advoc; tors that the monarchy was aware of its own weakness. London newspapers express intense interest in the outcome.
