Cannon, South Fulton St., tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock, to elect officers and transact all fur ther busines on hand. Dues will be collected. All who. have pledged themselves to send foodstuffs for the Thanksgiv ing bataar, will please send vie ar ticles just as arranged to the depot agreed upon .tomorow (Tuesday). The excepton to this arrangement will be in the case of bread, pies, milk and celery. Don't send them until further notice. It is regrettable that the Thanks giving dinner to be given under the auspices of the Red Cross had to be postponed, but because of the influ enza epidemic it was deemed wise not to risk bringing so many people to eether until the flu was conquered. The soliciting of food entailed a very great amount of work for the mem bers of the different teams, and in or der to avoid a repetition of this the plan waa adopted to ask that the things come in just as arranged on the day set for receiving them, Tues day, the 26th, and these things be put in cold storaee until needed for the Red Cross, which is expected to be given Dec. 12. Ladies who promised pies, will please remember their pledge and when the notice appears abount Dec. 12 eet the pies ready for serving on that date. All this will help out rreatlv in conserving time and work and will be greatly appreciated by the ladies trying to make this din ner a success. SIMPLE DINNERS FOR THANKSGIVING. We, who have, marveled at the amazing results in food saving al ready accomplished by the American people co-operating with the United Strtes food administration, will see yet greater tasks performed. At least one hundred and eighty million people in addition to the one hunderd and character has never been portrayed by Virgin. Pearson in all her long list of great dramatic successes. Miss Pearson in "Buchanan's Wife" is go ing to be the biggest attraction played in many, many a day! twenty million allies are clamoring to be fed. Mindful of this, let us make thanksgiving dinner one of ex treme simplicity this year. The fol lowing menus suggest a suitable, and yet patriotic feast. I.

Raleigh, Nov. 25. iDuring the month of October the epidemic of in fluenza levied a death toll in North Carolina in excess of even the highest estimates that were made while the epidemic was at its height. More than 6,000 people In the state during October died from either influenza or influenza-pneumonia. The exact fig ures can not be given yet because of the incompleteness of reports from some of the counties. A tabulation of the reports to the bureau of vital statistics of the state boar dof health shows thetdtal num ber of deaths reported as resulting directly from - the epidemic to be 4.805. It is kftown, however, that sev ersl counties1 have not reported in full, and thav reports For October yet to be made will run the total above the 5,000 mark. Included in the incom plete reports are the city of Raleigh; Camp Polk, near iRaleigh; Camp Greene, near Charlotte; Camp Bragg, near rayetteville. In many cases phy sicians and undertakers were so rush ed with the care of the sick and dead that death certificates were not made out properly. These will come in to the bureau vital statistics along with the reports for the month of November, so that complete statistics for October will not be available until about the middle of December. Gaston and Forsyth counties, ac cording to the figures at hand, suf fered the heaviest losses, each having a total of 210 deaths. Wake was a dose second, with a total of 203. with New lHanover third, its total being 164. Only one county in the state, Al leghany, reported no deaths from the epidemic during October. Two coun ties, Alexander and Clary, each re ported one death. Among the other counties of the state the deaths are very evenly distributed according to papulation, showing that the entire state waa affected by the epidemic, all sections suffering alike ip the death toll levied. The crest of the epidemic was ap parently reached during the fourth week in October, reports of cases and deaths both showing a decided falling off during the last few days of that month and the beginning of Novem ber. As a result the restrictive meas ure which were taken by nearly every community in the state to prevent the spread of the disease began to be re pealed during the second week of the present month. New outbreaks of the epidemic have resulted in many dif ferent sections of the state, in some instances to such an extent that all possible restrictive measures had to be resorted to again. The general celebration held in practically every community of the state on "Victory Monday" brought crowds together, and rendered futllle even those - pre cautionary measures that were still In force. In all probability influenza, and the resultant pneumonia, will continue to be prevalent in the state throughout the winter. The problem of preven tion is one that lies in the hands of the individual for solution. Influenza is a crowd disease. It is spread by "spit swapping." through the means of the unmuzzled cough and sneeze, or the use of drinking cups, eating utensils, or towels that have been used by an infected person. The pre vention of the disease depends upon each individual avoiding crowds where infection is so easy, and refusing to use the things that soma one else has used. Because of the nature of the disease quarantine measures are aot Nola Miller. Negress, Tampers With Paper Money, Passes It and Lands in Trouble Case to Superior Court. Nola Miller, a young negro woman, several days ago had a coat laid back at the Belk-Harry stores and Satur day went to get it. The sale price was $5 and Nola tendered one of the lady clerks a bill in payment. Shortly after she left the store it was discov ered that the bill was a one dollar bill and that the corner had been torn off of a $6 bill and pasted over the figure one on one end of the one dollur bill and changed at another place. The sheriff was notified and soon had the woman in custody. She still had in her possession the $5 bill from which the comer had been torn to raise the one dollar bill. She was given a hearing in the county court tiM morning and bound over to the February term of Rowan Superior court. It is not unlikely that the cue may land in Federal court. W S 8 SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE IN GERMAN Y UK ELY lLondon, Nov. 25. The ex-kaiser now is said to be Interned and not al lowed to go outside the Bentinick es tate. German Catholic newspapers fore shadow the separation of church and state, stopping of payment of the clergy's stipend and expropriation, of the property of conventual establish ments. 1 .Bradford is preparing to offer Pres ident Wilson the freedom of the city as the iBemllng familv is famous for their Bemlinghall in historic Landor, which Is now owned by the municipal ity. Mrs. Wilson is a descendant of this family. The Prince of Walea lunched with 30 American officers at the tatter's club yesterday. W S S BRITISH WONT fPFAK TO GERMAN SAILORS lLondon, Nov. 23. There are now 59 German submarines at Harwich, one havinr struck a mine, although it is exppcted the crew blew her up. The North sea is boisterous and some de lay in arrival of the submarines was exnected. British sailors refuse to speak to German ssilors except when neces sary. The first batch of the surrender ed warships already are being taken to he Orkney islands. It i now defin itely known that 'on German de stroyer hit a mine. The reason th German fleet conld make only 10 knots wss a lack of lubricating oil. A German commander on the wav home wir1esd H Germany the fact that the British fleet was in nerfect condition, evidently contradicting ru mors to the contrary. We Give Green Trading Stamps.

POLES TAKE LEMBERG CAPITAL OF GALIC1A Copenhagen, Nov. 24. Polish troops yesterday captured Lemberg, the capital of Galicia, and its environs, according to the Polish telegraph bu reau at Cracow. (There has been heavy fighting in and about Lemberg since early in November when Ukranian troops en tered Galicia and captured the city by surprise. Polish forces immediately began a siege and in the infighting it has been reported that much damage was done to Important buildings in Lemberg.)
