Is .unless some enterprising delegation reaches' the city on an earlier train. Arrange ments have been made for railroad ac commodations in the form of a special train which will leave here early in the morning of the 27th. The Shriners will take their wives and sweethearts with them, and after participating in the festivities of the day, they will be guests of the New Bern Shriners at a dance to be given during the evening. The local aggregation will leave New Bern Immediately following the "dance. The special train will be in charge of Noble F. M. Jolly, and this an nouncement is sufficient to insure that the time of their li .who joins the' party. "The li-d will be off." Noble W. A. French stated last night .and he urges all Shriners to make their arrangements to join the caravan that has blood in its eyes and a sting in the bite from the long confinement since the days when it was .lawful- to inflict punishment on "fresh meat." Mr. French" also urges that every local Noble pick out a good healthy candidate and see that he is well fed before leaving Wilmington for there is no telling what those camels will do, since it has been so long since they were turned loose on the streets. The following concerning the cere monial and the arrangements for the trip will be of interest to Shriners: "Just think of it! you pan leave here on the morning of the ceremonial and come back the same night thus losing one day from your business and think of the fun you have in store! . "Special Pullmans will be provided at New Bern so . that you can go to sleep after the dance and wake up in Wilmington. "The Sudan drum corps with their guests, one of the finest bands in the south, will be on hand to see that your pleasures are most perfect. "Noble W. A. French, if you will only call upon him, he will see to your special tickets and your reservation on the Pullmans returning from New Bern. "Your ticket will cost you a few cents less than "Seven Birks" and your berth "Two-Twenty." "Get an application blank and sign your fresh meat up." RED CROSS TO OPERATE FUEL YARD FOR POOR Plans to Invest 1,900 In Fuel and De livery Truck Sell Wood and Coal at Cost. A wood and coal yard, operated en tirely for the benefit of the poorer people in the city, will be establish ed within a short time, either the lat ter part of this week or the first of next, by the Red Cross chapter, ac cording to announcement made night by J. F. Roache, chairman of the Red Cross military relief and home service committee. The- plan of the relief committee is to operate the fuel yard as a welfare measure to prevent suffering in the community during the winter season. Wood and coal will be retailed at cost, and in case a family is too poor to pay for fuel, it will be-furnished with out charge. Arrangements have been made to secure well-dried wood, cut in all lengths from the owner of tim-J ber near the city, wno has onerea to supply the yard at a very reasonable rate. The fuel administration having removed restrictions against the pur chase of coal, the yard will be stocked with a large quantity of bituminous coal. The Red Cross chapter expects to in vest approximately 11,000 in fuel supp ly and $900 in a truck to be used in mak ing deliveries. This will eliminate the difficulties so frequently experienced in securing drays for hauling. The site bf the yard has not been decided defi nitely yet. George H. Hutaff has of fered the use of a site in Love Grove, which is on the northern section of town and very convenient to the At lantic Coast Line. Coal and wood shipped over the A. C. L. could be de livered here directly from the freight cars, saving switching charges if the yard were located in the southern or central part of the city. From that point the truck could be loaded and delivery made in every section of the community. , The site of the yard and further de tails of operation will- be discussed and definitely decided at the meeting of the Red Cross executive committee Wednesday morning in the chamber of commerce. At that time the matter will be formally placed before the gov erning board of the chapter and reso lutions adopted authorizing the mili tary relief committee to establish the yard without delay, as cold weather is rapidly approaching and the need for adequate heat supply In order to ward off pneumonia and grippe among the poor people is pressing. The benefit' such an establishment as the wood yard proposed would render to the community in relieving suf fering among the poor and checking illness brought on by exposure is readily seen, and that the Red Cross chapter will have, the hearty support and co-operation of the entire cityx in this undertaking: goes 'without saying.

MORE ACTIVITY FOR THE COUNTRY CLUB Big Events Planned For Thanks- giving Day. Medal Golf. Tournament Thursday Morning. Followed by Oster Roast and Basket Lunch Dance at Night. Fieeling; thatit was no time for so cial functions, on an elaborate scale, or a time when one should devote 'any great attention to private pleasures of any nature, the officials and members of the Cape Fear Country club have been' more1 or less inactive during': the ( P&st year, . but now that hostilities have .. ceased and peace is in sight, plans i are underway for a full season during the fall and winter months. Tfie beginning of the season for in creased activities will be marked by a -medal golf tournament and basket lunch -Thursday, an event that ia cus tomarily held on Thanksgiving ' day and one that is always greatly enjoyed, by the club members and their guests. There will be no less interest in the event this year than before, and in fact present plans call for even a more elaborate program. r The day's events will begin Thurs day morning about 9 . o'clock, or. im mediately updri the arrival at,' the grounds ; of the first beach car from the city. This will be the medal golf tournament and will be followed by tiie oyster roast and Dasket lunch, which will be served on the grounds. Arrangements are being made for a dance in the club building during; the evening. The plans for this have-not been announced yet, but will be in a day or so. J. F. Sears, president of the club, stated last night that the club mem bers during the past year have paid but little attention to the customery activities; instead have centered their efforts upon war work through aiding in the various campaigns that have arisen as the result of the war, and have devoted much of their spare time to this. However, now that peace seems imminent he states that more attention will be given to the club with the idea of expanding its activi ties. The management has again engaged the services of Isaac Mackle, noted golf professional, who will be on the job to tutor persons wishing to, be come more efficient in playing the game, which is an announcement that will be received with genuine pleasure by those who know him and his abil ity as a golf instructor. He has been connected with the local club for sev eral years. Among other clubs that he has been associated with are the Canoe Brook Golf club, of New Jersey, and the Fox Hill dlub, of Staten Is land. The social department of the club is also to be given more attention. There have been many new people brought here by the , shipyards and it is expected that many of these will be come members of the club and avail themselves of the social advantages as well as wholesome recreation. Al ready quite a number of shipyard of ficials and employes have associated themselves with the club and no doubt many more will do likewise. ' Mr. Sears stated last night that new members of the club and their wives are especially urged to visit the club Thursday and participate in exercises, which will be informal in character. Dr. R. H. Bellamy is captain of the green and has the arrangement for the tournament in charge. MARYLAND'S DRINK SUPPLY Has 160,000,000 Shorts" for Thirsty Until July 1, Next Year. , Since Baltimore is the nearest and only station for the thirsty of the south, the following from the Balti more Sun may be of interest to those who go or who hope to go or who would like to go to Baltimore: "There are 8,000,000 gallons of whis key in the bonded warehouses of Maryland to supply the demand until July 1, 1919, when the 'bone-dry' act, which has been signed by President Wilson, will go into effect. "After estimating the population of Maryland, with particular attention to the percentage furnished by the city of Baltimore, it will be estimated that in a gallon of whiskey there are, roughly speaking, just about 20 drinks. There fore, by simple multiplication, it is readily seen that there are at present available for -consumption before next July 1 no less than 160000,000 indi vidual drinks of whiskey. "The foregoing figures were furnish ed The Sun yesterday by former State Senator Lewis M. Milbourne, chief de puty collector of internal revenue, at his office .in the custom house.- "When the announcement was made that President Wilson had signed the measure making the, entire United States bone dry after July 1, 1919, there was a general report that all of the saloons of. the city and state would endeavor-to dispose jof their stocks of liquqrsat me earliest possible moment, but siidh will most probably not be the case. The price of distilled liquor will increase greatly, no doubt, for the brief period which is still allowed the saloonkeepers, and a veritable harvest thus will be reaped." BASKET BALL TEAM GOES TO PLAY AUGUSTA THURSDAY Local Aggregation Will Meet Georgia Team Thanksgiving Night. The-senior basket ball league of the Y. W. C. A. will be. represented in Au gusta next Thursday by Captain Montgomery's quintet, which leaves for Georgia Wednesday night to meet the strong basket ball team of the Augusta association Thanksgiving night.

It has played several games at the "Y" since the sea son opened and has .not suffered a single defeat. Several weeks ago the same aggregation won from the Caro lina shipyard team a loving cup pre sented by Pembroke Jones. The mem bers of the team -are fast .and well trained, and while the . Augusta bunch has made or itself the1 reputation of being lusty players, they will have to Vgo some" if they outclass the local representatives. Following is a line up of the players, who will go to Au gusta: : R. James, E. Snakenburg, forwards; C. Gore, center; A. Jewell, V.Gore, E, Delano, : C ' Williams, guards; W. F.

Wilmington was represented at this meeting by James H. Cowan, secretary of the chamber of commerce, who is expected to return from Greensboro this morning- ' The Red Cross Christmas roll call is being planned on .ah extensive scale, having as its goal the enrollment of every American citizen. The increas ed work of the Red Cross and the task of caring for wounded . soldiers and sailors ' who have fought for America and of meeting obligations to the al lies require tremendous energy and ne cessitate a large membership and a strong organization. In order to se cure this, it is necessary to enlist the aid of every American, so the goal of the Red Cross Christmas roll call is universal membership. Rev. M. T. Plyler, who has been ap pointed chairman of the roll call for Wilmington's chapter, has called a meeting of the chairman's staff to be held Monday morning in the assembly hall of the chamber of commerce to form an organization and map a detail ed program for roll call week. The members of the chairman's staff col laborating with ' Mr. Plyler are W. A." McGirt, director of details and assist ant roll call chairman; Louis J. Pois son, chairman of the speakers' commit tee; W. P. Sprunt, roll call cashier; and the chairman of publicity. Mr. Cowan will report at this meet ing the detailed plans outlined for the membership campaign at the confer ence held yesterday in Greensboro, and the executive committee, or chairman's staff, following this report, expects to commence the task of organization of workers for roll call week. One of the spectacular features of the Red Cross Christmas roll call will be a community masque, or pageant, in which all the artistic talent of the community will be expected to partici pate. The affair will be distinctly a community entertainment. Secretary Cowan has been named as masque chairman, and the dramatic director, stage manager, cast committee, musi cal director, chorus leader, art direc tor, orchestra and costume committee will- be appointed by him to assist in staging the entertainment, which is expected to be one of the most elabor ate affairs of Its kind ever presented (Continued on Page Seven).
