KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
SHOW APPRECIATION
The recent Knights of Columbus
,ar fund drive in Cordova and vicin
ly was a success far beyond the san
guine expectation of the committee
r.ving the drive in hand.
That the very laudable work the
Cnights of Columbus are doing in
he camps and at the front, in pro
dding recreational centers that not
mly rest and restore the boys phys
eally and mentally, but prove to be a
leme to the homesick and medicAe
o the worn-out; where all are wel
:ome, without regard to creed or af
ll.ations, is thoroughly appreciated
md indorsed by the people of Cor
lova, was emphatically shown by the
muul-minded, generous response to
he appeal for funds. •
According to population, the com
nittee figured the proportionate
luota for Cordova should be about
*700, but Cordova, as ever, ’’went
iver the top,’’ contributing more than
f 1,100, with several collections yet
o hear from.
The committee wishes to thank the
public in general for their generosity,
the collectors for their zeal and en
ergy, that made the drive such a suc
cess, and the Cordova Daily Times
for the appreciated aid given in pub
lishing news items and editorials.

MOTION PICTURE STARS
WORKING FOR LOAN DRIVE
LOS ANGELES, April 12.—Five
headliners of the motion picture
world—Mary Piekford, Douglas Fair
banks, W. S. Hart, Charlie Chaplin
and Marguerite CJ»rk—are on their
way to play “one-night stands” for
the government in the Third Liberty
loan campaign.
Miss Piekford, Chaplin, and Fair
banks were asked by Secretary of
the Treasury McAdoo to attend the
April 6th “rally" in Washington, D.
C., marking the first anniversary of
America’s declaration of war upon
Germany.
Each planned a two weeks’ trip.
Miss Piekford is "billed” by the Lib
erty loan committee to speak in Phil
adelphia, New York, Boston, Pitts
burgh, Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas
City.
Fairbanks and Chaplin were asked
to cover decidedly more meetings, the
former agreeing to do a good deal of
talking from the car platform at stops
between the eighteen cities wnere he'
will address mass meetings.
Hart will open his tour at San
Diego tonight, and appear in Los An
geles, Salt Lake City, Spokane, Se
attle, Tacoma, Portland, Oakland and
San Francisco, showing himself as he
has become known in motion pictures,
in costume as the “two-gun man.”
The United States government
agreed to pay the expenses of the five
stars, but no compensation. As all
head companies here, which will be
idle during their absence, the actual
cost of the tours, it is estimated, will
be extremely large.
