Salvation Army Fund Drive In Keo
kuk's Half of th« County Will
be Completed
Soon.
FT. MADISON *S BEHIND
Drive There Has Been Postponed for
Week to Allow Further Time to
Fix Quotas and the
Like.
The country districts In Lee county
which wore apportioned to Keokiile an
working with this city on the 8*1
vation Army home service fund
drive were organized yesterday by
1
the committee composed of Sheriff
Jjohn C. Scott, John Nagel and John
S. Sprowls. The organization was
put into the hands of former sol
Idlers, and it is confidently predicted
by the members, that with the
example before th«xn of Keokuk's
raising the four thousand dollars
[necessary in two hours, the country
districts will turn in their Quota of
lone thousand at once.
The Iowa headquarters is suggest
ing a doughnut day for Tuesday, Sep
tember 30. This, however, will not
I be necessary for Keoxuk, as this
ieity, as usual, went over the top in
ja hurry. Keokuk's record in all of
the drives has been that she has
reached her quota among the first.
Fort Madison Postponed.
Keokutc raised its quota for the
Salvation Army home service fund In
two hours or less Tuesday afternoon.
Port Madison started out, but post
poned their work of raising funds to
next Monday, in order, as the Fort
Madison Democrat says, "to allow
the committee more time to go into
the matter of different quotas and
similar details, but the King's
Daughters will again start out Mon
day morning with an intent to put
Fort Madison 'over the top.' And if
It is a matter of persuasion to get
anyone to donate, the matter 'will be
turned over to the soldier's commit
tee who will call/ on them and offer
persuasion."
Fort Madison and the entire upper
half of Lee county has only four
thousand dollars to raise. Keokuk is
not trying to collect any money from
Donnellson, as that city expressed a
preference to cast its lot with Fort
I Madison. Keokuk with several town
ships in the south half of the county
Is to raise five thousand dollars,
[Keokuk's share having been raised
now, with less than a half day of
pvork.
People Fall to Respond.
The Fort Madison Democrat com
ments further on the failure of the
people there to respond to the cause,
'when It says:
it Is very evident, from the repoila
jof some of the solicitors, that The
people of Fort Madison have an in
correct version of the Salvation
'Army home service fund, as it has
I been noted that some erf our
[wealthiest merchants have donated
jvery small amounts whereas some of
'the citizens with smaller capital have
made the larger contributions. On
the drive which was made yesterday,
the returns surely do not indicate
the true spirit of the citizens of Fort
Madison, and the committee In chrage
are of the opinion that this wis a
misunderstanding on the part of ^he
donors. In some cases people of
high standing In the community gave
nothing whatever, but this will he
corrected as several of the returned
soldiers have volunteered to irulte a
special visit to all of these places in
Ian effort to find out why these par
ities should not help this organiznMon
in their drive for funds. The nrmt'ar
(will be followed up as the retuinsd

[United Press Leased Wire Service.]
LOS ANGELES. Calif., Sept. 25.—
Tl\e San Gabriel canyon was the cen
ter of the Angeles forest fire zone
today.
Men counted by hundreds were
massed in that vicinity in what they
hoped would prove a successful ef
fort to save the watershed of the
Pomona valley.
"The worst is over," was the com
ment of Forest Supervisor Charlton
on the general situation. He out
lined how the fire in the San Fer
nando region, tha Arroyo Soco, which
is tho Pasadena watershed, and in
all of the big fire zones excepting the
Snn Gabriel district, had either
burned themselves out or been con
