GREATEST GIFT IN HISTORY IS RAISED IN U. S. Total Subscriptions to United War Work Campaign Are $ 1 03, 179,038. NEW YORK., Nov 26. Total subscriptions to the united war work campaign were $103,179,038, or $32,679,038 in excess of the amount originally asked by the seven war relief organizations for their work during demobilization of the army and navy, according to an official announcement last night by the National Campaign Committee. This is the largest sum ever raised as an outright gift in the history of the world. According ; to the committee, every state in the union, with the exception of Pennsylvania and Minnesota, exceeded, the quota assigned it, and confidence was expressed that these states will be "over the top" when returns from Philadelphia and Minneapolis are sent in. Philadelphia, a "war-chest" city, has not yet made an appropriation to the fund, while Minneapolis postponed its drive until next month. Fourteen states pledged 150 per cent or. more of their quotas, Arizona heading the list with 248 per cent. Percentages of other. high states were: Delaware, 230; Texas, 222; Louisiana and New Mexico, each 186; Connecticut, 180; Maryland. 178; Mississippi. 166:. Nevada, 164; North Carolina and Alabama; each 160; Kansas, 155; Georgia and Vermont, each 150. A feature of the campaign was the manner in which men of the army and navy, themselves, and the inhabitants of foreign countries contributed to the fund. The army and navy gave $618,346. China gave $1,000,000; Russia, $11,000; Cuba. $275,000; Japan, $360.000;' Mexico, $114,000, and Porto Rico, $82,000. New York state went "over the top" Monday with a percentage of 102 when the "continuation drive" in New York City closed, the city's $35,000,000 quota subscribed. John D. Rockefeller and John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who had underwritten lacking subscriptions to the amount of $1,623,689, were called on to contribute $370,097 to make up the total when reports showed a subscription of $34,629,903. Dr.. John R. Mott, director general of the campaign, expressed deep satisfaction at the result of the drive. "To all who have so generously given or their time and effort," said Dr. Mott, "from the president and his associates to the humblest given, the Campaign Committee sends thanks, not for itself, but for those to whom the gifts will mean so much in these next crucial months the brave men in our army and navy."

AMERICAN ATHLETICS GAIN REMARKABLE HOLD ON FRENCH . , (By ."Associated Press NEW YORK. Nov. 26. The remarkable hold which the American athletics and sport gained in France with the entry of the United States Army is being illustrated in many ways and there are indications that the return to peaceful conditions will only augment this popularity. Competent observers hold firmly to the opinion that the coining years will witness a wonderful growth in international sport competition, the seeds of which have been sown by the soldier in khaki and those who entered Europe. with him In advisory or other helpful capacity. That the French army authorities realized the value of athletics as exampllfled by the American soldier and sailor is shown by the appointment of special instructors from the Y. M. C. A. Foyer du Soddat ranks. These American coaches are faced by a most unusual and complicated task, but have tackled the work with a vim so characteristic in sport in this country and are already able to report encouraging progress. They found themselves confronted from the start by conditions that have no parallel in the United States. At home, the coach practically never has to teach the fundamentals of any game, his pupils acquire those in chillhood. But in France, athletics must be "built from the ground up." Instead of organizing and continuing sports that are already known, the Foyer du Soldat men must be literally pioneers. A3 the first problem is to teach new games, the work is necessarily elementary. Instead of taking material that is well-grounded In the things desired and putting a fine edge on the individual skill and teamwork, the American working with the French must treat his task entirely from the standpoint of amusement and distraction. The Frenchman is by nature and temperament a sportsman, and is able to learn American games very quickly. Unfortunately for the rapid growth of sports that require throwing and catching there have been no games generally played In France that develop muscular co-ordination of the hands, arms and shoulders. For this reason baseball, basketball and volley ball will prove especially valuable in giving the French a well balanced development. Within the past few months the French miitary authorities have found this work of so much benefit, where conducted upon an informal and voluntary basis, that they have officially appointed Foyer men in charge of athletics in several training camps and schools. In view of the fact that demobilization is expected to extend over a considerable period, these appointees and others are likely to retain their billets for a long time. Among those now serving in this capacity are included: Lawrence O'Conner, athletic director for the aviation school at Pau, where the commandant has ordered all men on duty there to devote threequarters of an hour each day to sports. Mr. O'Connor comes from New York city. At Camp de Ger, R. L. Wiggln has assumed crage of the athletic program. He comes from Limerick, Me., is a Bowdoin college graduate, and was supeiintendent of school before taking up Y. M. C. A. work in France. Raymond L. Games, of Omaha, is directing sports at'Agen. another training center in the southern part of France. He is a Dartmouth man and was supervisor of physical education in Omaha. The experience gained in his work at home has enabled him to achieve signal success among the French students placed under his charge. Red Cross Ready to Receive Prisoners PARIS. Nov. 6. Arrangements have been completed by the American Red Cross for the reception of American prisoners at the French frontier where they will get overcoats, underwear, clothing, shoes and uniforms. J. B. Dimmick, of Scranton, Pa., who is in charge of the work, announced that 300 Americans who were prisoners of the Germans; are under treatment here, and if able, will be invalided home. The American Red Cross reports that American prisoners received fair treatment in Germany, considering the shortage of food and other hardships. Richmond Man Makes Rapid Advance in Navy Lieut. E. O.

Horses Go For $10 For $50

CAMDEN, O., Nov. 26. The Red Cross White Elephant sale held here Saturday was a grand success financially and the receipts will total between $4,000 and $5,000.' The weather was very unfavorable and the crowd was not up to expectations but composed of a liberal clss of bidders. People appeared to pay little attention to the market value of stock, produce and other articles placed on sale and while fairly good horses sold for lees than $10, single pumpkins and cakes were sold at prices ranging from $20 to $50 in many Instances. Resales on articles of small market value brought the Red Cross neat sums. - A fine Red Cross cake, placed on display early in the day, was picked upon by . local Democrats to be purchased and donated to Governor Cox. Local Republicans, well remembering their only defeat at the last general election, thought otherwise and were the competitive and successful bidders. The cake brought $50, and was forwarded to Senator Warren G. Harding. The chief executive is to receive a smaller cake which sold later for $25. Shortly before 12 o'clock, an airplane from the Wright Field, Dayton, visited Camden and gave a splendid exhibition flight. The ladies of the Red Cross served dinner and supper to several hundred people in the opera house. The music was furnished by the El 1,300 Saloons Closed in One County in Ohio (By Associated Press CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 26 By adop tion of the state prohibition amendment at the recent Ohio election, approximately 1,300 saloons in Cuyahoga ' county will be forced to close their ! doors on May 26, 1919.

French Flag Will Fly Over Alsatian's Grave MUNCIE, Ind., Nov. 26 On Thanksgiving day in Cincinnati, a request made six years ago by Benjamin Klein as he lay dying will be fulfilled. It was that a French flag be placed on his grave if Alsace-Lorraine should ever again become a province of France. Born an Alsatian, he had grieved over the fate of his native land after it passed under Germany's control at the end of the war of 1870. When he realized that the end was near, ho called to his bedside in Cincinnati, L. M. Klein, of Muncie, a brother, and Samuel Levy, of Cincinnati, and asked them to make him the promise as to the tri-color of the overseas republic. The allied victory in the world war has made its carrying out possible. The father of the Klein brothers, who died in Alsace, made the similar request and next summer the surviving son plans to carry out the ceremony overseas. A number of friends of the two brothers, who were born in Alsace, will take part in the Thanksgiving exercises.
