Mrs. M. D. Goode 3 o'clock Wednes
day afternoon, Oct. Cth. Installation
of officers. All members urged to be
present.
Mr. M. C. Green was
bruised and suffered a fractured
last Wednesday when his horse
buggy were run into T>y an
bile driven by Gene Walton, colored.
Mr. Green’s horse also was scratched
up and the buggy overturned and
almost demolished.
The accident occurred on Ander¬
son avenue and was attributed to the
breaking of the shearing apparatus
of the automobile as the driver at¬
tempted to turn out to pass Mr.
Green.
Mr. Green showed great presence
of mind in holding to the reins af¬
ter being thrown out of the buggy,
whie was broken loose from the
horse by the impact.
His friends are glad that he was
not more seriously injured and that
he was able to be out Monday, al¬
though still quite weak.

ENORMOUS GASOLINE WASTE
BY MOTOR VEHICLES YEARLY
i
If each of the 7,000,000 motor
vehicles in the United States wasted
half a gallon of gasoline a day, the
total amount of fuel wasted would be
1,332,250,000 gallons annually—
$333,062,500 thrown away yearly.
These figures, estimated by the
truck tire department of The Good¬
year Tire & Rubber Company, indi¬
cate that the waste of gasoline
throughout America lias assumed
serious proportions and that there
is an immediate need of conservation.
If the drivers of all passenger
cars and motor trucks were careful
to coast up to stops, on down grades ■
had carburetors properly adjusted,
did not race their motors when start¬
ing and did not let them run idle,
800,000,000 gallons of gasoline could i
be saved annually. At an average i
price of 25 cents a gallon, the total ;
sa bug in money would amount to
$200,000,000—enough to build
5,000 miles of improved roads. ■
At present it is estimated that the
consumption of gasoline by motors
is 84,000,000 barrels a year, The
total consumption for all purposes
is about 91,000,000 barrels.
Production of crude petroleum is
believed to be at its peak with an
annual production of 400,000,000
barrels. But 100,000,000 barrels of
gasoline can be produced from this
total, leaving but 9,000,000 for ex¬
port demands. I
.
Recently oil companies have start- 1
ed nation-wide movement for ■
a gas¬
oline conservation, in some places by
rationing so that the demands of
legitimate motor transportation may
be met. j

tal receipts to the Red Cross from
the division were but $566,117.
The proportionately large amount
spent in the south is due to the num¬
ber of camps, military posts, and
United States Public Health hospitals
located in this section, as well as the
great expansion of its nursing and
social service program which the
Red Cross undertook in the south.
In the light of the nearly a million
spent in the south last year, all of
which was exclusive of expenditures
by the individual chapters, it is be¬
lieved a proportionately large
amount of the 1920-21 appropria¬
tion of the Red Cross will also be
spent in the south.
Important among the items of
the budget for the coming year, an¬
nounces national headquarters, is
$31,500,000 for relief to foreign
lands, which includes $11,000,000 jn
purchased supplies on hand, but not
yet distributed. This Will enable the
Red Cross to continue its humanita
rian program of aiding stricken
peoples to reestablish themselves,
fighting the disease epidemics that
threaten many countries, effacing
largely the remaining traces of
blight left by the world war. Central
Europe faces another winter of
famine, pestilence, typhus plagues
and other horrors. The Red Cross
will continue to fight them, not only
for Europe’s sake, but to keep such
maladies from American shores.
Appropriations for domestic ac
tivities of the Red Cross in 1920-21
total $16,700,000, of which the lar¬
gest item is $7,800,000 for civilian
relief work such as assistance for
families of soldiers, sailors and ma¬
rines. Of the total for civilian relief,
$5,000,000 is held in reserve for ac¬
tual disaster relief in case of such
j floods as that and dires at West and Point, tornadoes. Ga.,
last year,
For assistance to soldiers, sailors
and marine in hospitals and in
camps at the Red Cross has set
aside $1,900,000. For improvement
of health and prevention of disease
throughout America, $4,200,000 has
I been appropriated. Qne million will
I be for developing the peace-time
i program of the Red Cross by ser
, vice to its chapters in all regions.
As an instance of .the economy the
Red Cross is practicing ■ where it can,
only $ 1 800,000 is to go for admin
, $2,
istration expenses, as against
300,000 appropriated last year. Last
year management” cost only 3.3
cents for each dollar spent.
