Watts: ,. - ' " - - It has occurred to me that in con sidering our war work drive,vwe may have our thoughts fired too much up on the cold, commercial proposition of securing the dollars called for in our quota. This is airtight; we need the money and ' must" get it. But at this time I can not but think Of the wonderful success our boys, and their allies, over there, have had i&uflng -.-the t four montht; the spirit, dash, and sacrifice required ojf them to briWjSsU- Hun to his knees. Our. hearts hOuU. be filled with thanksgiving to Al mighty God who has given us the Vic tory. We should, therefore, enter this campaign counting it a privilege to use our rme, talents and money as a real thank.-sriving offering in recog nition of the service our boys are ren dering, and to assure them we will stand behind them with all we have. 'Tjank God for our brave boys, and think Him that up to the measure of our ability we are giving both ser vice and money." A maeting of the local workers will oe held at headquarters in the French building tomorrow night and every member of every city team is expect fa to be present. Final arrangements tor the beginning of the drive Mon day morning will be made at this meeting and the first assignment of :ards given. OHIO FARMER IS HERE LOOKING FOR A NEW HOME Told Winters in Ohio nd TTnaealthful Condition in Arkansas Responsible Declaring that he is tired of the cold Winters in northern Ohio and of the nnhealthful conditions of Arkansas. Wiun Dean, a native of Marion, Ohio, and a prominent farmer of that state, "rived in Wilmington yesterday corning in search for a nice little :arm in the "Sunny Soth." He was M in touoh with J. F. Herring, coun ty farm agent, who will assist him in locating a place to his liking. Mr. Dean has been farming in -rkansas for several years and de cares that he does not want, nor cx Peet to find, any more fertile land than tnat which he cultivated in that state, 't the health conditions there, he States, are such as to make him seek pastures anew. The cold winters in Ohio Prevented him considering going to his native state. In -the sec tion of V.-kansas which he lived in. r.

J. AT etiarch Pastor of Calvary ' Baptist TO PRESERVE LIST ALL CONTRIBUTORS Permanent Honor Roll Will Be Created SI Returning From Battle Can So Exactly Who Supported the Organ isations That Helped to. Ligat ion, Tfceir Burdens. Wilmington and New Hanover county are going to have a '"permanent honor roll" containing the name of every per son; malting contribution to the war fund that is being raised for the sup port of seven organizations doing social and religious work among the Ameri can soldiers and sailors. . The honor roll will contain the names of every person who makes a contribution, re gardless of the amount, and at some convenient time after the close of the campaign-it will bo turned over to the county to be kept by the register of deeds for reference by any one inter ed in knowing who supported "the boys" while they were going "over the top" on foreign battlefields. Roger Moore, county chairman, has received a -letter from tho state direc tor, Z. D. Dunlap, announcing the plan of the state organisation in carrying out this scheme. In his letter he stated that the-iocal committeewould receive the blanks, which will be in the form or sneets for. loose leaf .ledgers, in a few days, and will be placed on display in the corner 'Window of I Shrier and Sons'. clothing store, corner Front and Princess streets. The window will be decorated with signs and literature advertising the campaign, and in the center will be the honor roll surround ed with the national colors. Over the top of it will be written: "See that Your Name is Written There." One can readily appreciate that the soldier who is now serving in Franco as a representative of New Hanover county, upon his return, when ad vised that there is on record at the court house a list of all those who con tributed to the fund that meant so much to his comfort and happiness, most 'naturally will want to see the names composing the list, and. should an expected name not appear, that per son is going to have a well nigh im possible task in explaining just why his name is not there. The honor roll idea has met a ready response by local campaign leaders and plans were started immediately upon the receipt of Mr. Dunlap's letter to carry out his suggestion. At some date following the campaign, which is to be agreed upon, appropriate exer cises will be held and the honor roll officially presented to the register of deeds by the county chairman and his campaign staff. In his letter explain- in gthe plan for the honor roll Mr. Dunlap wrote. "I might further add that your 'permanent honor roll' will finally land, and rightfully in the war museums that will douotiess oe tablished after the war." es- NORBERT WILLIAMS' STORY "" . OXE OF soE INTEREST - - - J8- c7 --- - But Probation. Officer Finds at Leas Part of It Incorrect. Upon request of Rev. F. D. Dean, probation officer, Norbert Li. wmiams, about 15 years of age, was taken into custody yesterday and is being held pending instructions Irom nis parents in Hartford, Ark., who have just learn ed of his whereabouts for ihe first time in morte than a year. The story of-the boy's career for the past year is quite He is exceptionally bright and makes friends easily, and that . accounts for his having been "adopted" by the Wil mington boys of the Second North Can olina regiment, national guard. While the company was en route to the Mexi can border they encountered young Williams at a railway station some where out west . He told a pitiful tale of being alone in the world and the company took him, made him its mascot and then cared for him until ordered to port to embark for: foreign sdrvice. Believing the boy to have neither father nor mother the members of the company made up funds and sent him here to live at the home of J. L. Brown, father of David Brown, a member of the company. He reached here safely September a year ago. He was given the best of treatment and good ad vantages. . He was sent to the high school last winter and was quite popu lar. However, he began to give Mr. Brown a little trouble . recently and finally left his home and went" out in the country and stayed for a . time. Then he came back and secured em ployment as messenger at the Western Union. One day when he went to a home in Carolina Place to deliver a message he related his, story to a prominent lady of the neighborhood, who, being attracted by his brightness, offered to give him a home. He accepted and as in the case of Mr. Brown, was given unusual advantages. But there seem ed tfo be a natural instinct about the boy to be bad and he gave the people so much trouble that Mr. Dean was asked to take charge of him. In talking with him Mr. Dean suc ceeded in gettinghim to name a few people of his home town. He wrote the parties named, and It- happened that he gave one name correctly and the letter reached his parents and they replied, stating that the Information given concerning their having separat ed." was entirely incorrect, this being vouched for by other children who also wrote Mr. Dean.

Tidewater Power Company Wants To Operate "One-Man" CarsNo De cision Reached As To Increas ed ray far PoUeomen City council at its regular session at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, changed the plan of holding future meetings in day time, and when an ordinance was introduced fixing the of ficial meeting time at 8 o'clock Monday night from May IS to October 15, and at '10 a. m. Wednesdays from Octo ber 15 to May 15, objection was raised to the daylight meetings and a motion carried to hold all meetings on Mon day nights in the future. Yesterday was the first meeting since the change from night to day meetings and, in cidentally, will be the last. Prompted by the desire to increase the net income of the company and to release- every man possible for Shipyard or other work necessary in -the successful prosecution of the war, Raymond Hunt, general manager of the Tidewater Power company, asked council to repeal the ordinance requir ing, that two nen man every street car operated in the city so that his company could operate "one-man" cars. It Is not the plan of the company, Mr. Hunt pointed out, to lower the class of service that has been furn ished, but instead, he stated, by the equipment of the cars with automatic appliances, one man on a car would be able to render just as efficient and safe transportation as isv now furn ished by two men. The safety device which Mr. Hunt referred to has al ready been tried out on one v of the Carolina cars and has worked to the complete satisfaction of -all. The ap pliance consists of air brakes with a device that automatically stops the car should the motorman succumb to a J sudden illness while at his post. By the use of the new device the doors to the car are automatically opened when the car stops and closed when It is put in motion. Mr. Hunt stated that this change was desired for two reasons:- To re duce the cost of operating cars and to release men for other essential work, such as building ships, houses, etc. Instead of yielding an increase in revenue of approximately 30 per cent, as was thought would be the ease, the added car fare has thus far only swelled the receipts by about eight to 10 per cent, the deficiency in the expected Increase being the result of many persons walking rather than paying seven cents to ride. . In view of the fact that the matter was one that interested the public vitally, it was decided to defer ac tion to give the people an opportunity of making known their wishes. Councilman McCalg, chairman of the finance oommittee, told of the meeting of his committee with representatives, from the firemen to hear" their request for a raise. Personally he felt that the men were entitled to an increase in salary and felt that the matter should be well looked Into with that end in view. However, no action was taken since the question gave rise to requests for raises in other depart ments. There was nothing said of in creasing the salary of policemen but it is understood that such a recommen dation will be submitted at the same time the request concerning the com pensation paid firemen is made. The matter was closed, temporarily, by re ferring to the finance committee con sideration of increasing the pay of "all city employes" with instructions to report at a future meeting of coun cil for action by that body. The re quest of the firemen called for a $15 per month increase for 2d men. A partial solution of securing In creased funds to care for il - ever in creasing cost of maintaining the city government was reached in the adop tion of a motion offered. by Councilman Bunting which instructed that the list containing names of persons residing in the city who own stock ln non resident corporations, which was. furn ished the city by the state corpora tion commission, be placed on the city tax books and the amount collected. This is almost an identical copy of the list furnished the county,- which was placed on the tax books by the board of commissioners at its regular session Monday, and which, it is expected, will yield an income of approximately $28, 000. - .Considerable time was consumed in the discussion of faking over the building at the corner of Fourth and Princess street, now used as a repair shop, and converted into a store house for supplies for the water department. It was pointed out by Councilman Metts that this department has no place where its supples, such as pip ing, connections, etc., can be kept un der lock and key and as a result the Toss from thefts and deteriation of ma terial amounts to several times what is received as rental for the building in question. However, members of the board did not feeltbatthe building shouldbe taken "from its present occu pant since he has gone to the expense of making some repairs, and motion was carried permitting him to retain it until next June. Meantime; action will be taken looking to supplying housing for the material of the water department. . J. H. Hinton requested that council pave Market street between 17th and 20th, stating that this section" Of the thoroughfare is used much more ex tensively than many others that re ceive considerably more attention- in the. way of construction and mainte nance. Mr. Hinton wants the street paved with Some permanent material. An -investigation will be made by Councilman Bunting. -John w Piummer requested council to permit two negroes employed by himself to open some kind of an amusement hall at the corner of Sixth and Brunswick streets. It was refer red to Councilman Hall for investiga tion. Councilman Bradshaw was author ized to purchase two-piece uniforms for-4he firemen, but in the meantime he is to confervwith Chief tSchnibben and the men to see If some economy may not be effected by members utiliz ing their last winter suits. - -liR.

Reading of Reports for the Year Shows Tbat Chapter Has Accomplished Large Amount of Work Offi cers and Directors Elected. Closing one of the most successful years in its history, the Wilmington chapter .of the Red Cross held its an nual meeting yesterday morning at 11 o'clock in the assembly hall of-the chamber of commerce. A large num ber of the chapter's members were present to hear the annual reports read and assist In electing the board of directors and various officers for the ensuing year, which constituted the principal business of the meeting. The session was opened with prayer and was presided over by Chairman H. C. McQueen. A beautiful, well word ed address telling of the highly efficient manner in which the women of the country have carried on their invalu able work all over the United . States through the Red Cross, the wonderful things accomplished by them, and how nobly they have responded to the call to carry forward' the work of ' furn ishing supplies and caring for Ameri ca's soldiers, was read by Judge George Rountree. Matters of routine business were then discussed, and tho reports for the year read. The financial condition of the Red. Cross chapter is excellent, according to a report r$ad by J. Allan Taylor, chairman of the finance committee He also reported that during the repent epidemic of Influenza $2,500 wastv4ri toward the relief of sufferers, tJnoVr port showed that the chapter pledged more than this sum, in the event that it was needed. The report read by the membership committee showed that the tenter has a total membership of apprdxi- mately 6,000 persons, including tho Junior chapter and negro organiza tions. The adult white membership of the city is 2,975. ' Following the reading of reports, the election of the board of directors' and officers for the coming year was held. Inasmuch as the chapter ; has expanded to such an extent recently that lt3 jurisdiction now extends over a number of organizations in suburban towns throughout the county gener-i ally, an unusually large roster of di- rectors was named, so that each of the outlying organizations might have representation on the board.

BELLAMY Family Doesn't Believe He Is in French Hospital. Mrs. Bellamy Has Received No Cable gram Concerning' the Whereabouts of Her Husband Continue Ef forts For Official News. No official news has yet been receiv ed by the family in regard to the whereabouts qt safety of Lieut. Har grove Bellamy, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert R. Bellamy, of this city, who was reported missing in action Septem ber 29, Sunday Mr. Bellamy received news that his son had been captured but had later made his escape and was safe in a French hospital after suffering the loss of an arm. At first Mr. Bellamy credited this statement in full but now that three or four days of unceasing, effort to get news of him through official channels has failed to throw light. on the matter, Mr. Bellamy is inclined to the belief ,that the letter was mininterpreted and that his son had not escaped. A mis interpretation of the letter which con veyed the news of the lieutenant's es-cape.-is highly possible since 44ie scis sors were-used freely by the censor. The letter was from a corporal of Lieu tenant Bellamy's company, who stated that he and the lieutenant had escaped from the Germans after having been .made prisoners, but it is possible that he meant to convey that he, and not the lieutenant, had succeded In regain ing the American lines. And, too, Mr. Bellamy Is positive if his son were privileged to do so he would have advised him before this time of his whereabouts. Mr. Bellamy is-satisfled that his son was taken pris oner but does not think that he has es caped. The first information that he received, which was through a private Source, was that thelast time his son was seen by any member of his comp any was on September 29 and at that time he -was in hand. to hand combat with a German. He has learned later from private sources, that several Ger mans were seen carrying an American officer to the rear, and it is thought that this officer was Lieutenant Bel lamy and that he was taken in hopes of getting military information from him. If this was their motive, Mr. Bel lamy said, they were badly disappoint ed, for he wouldn't tell them a word under any circumstances. The story published In a Charlotte paper relative tO( the lieutenant's wife, who before marriage was Miss Sarah Erwin, of Durham, having received- a cablegram to the effect that Lieutenant Bellamy was safe ln a French prison after having suffered wounds which re sulted in the loss of an arm,-was en tirely without foundation, Mr. Bellamy stated, adding that Mrs. Bellamy had been at his home in this city since last Friday and that she had received no The family will continue efforts to et some definite information concern - rng the young officer. , lit HUSBAND AND WIFE READ.
