Bingham has not yet reached her , , ' full quota in the sale of War Savings Stamps, but the campaign is still in progress and new pledges are beipg added daily to the list. This cam-paign has been worked with excep-tional energy and a great , number of business and professional men of the camp have been on the Job daily for the past two weeks. The town of Bingham' proper has found it rather difficult to bring up 1U quota owing --Js to the fact that many hundreds of 7 residents here subscribed through the outlying camps where they are em-- , ployed. This took away from the town proper one of Its sources of se-curing pledges, btt notwithstanding this handicap, (Bingham win emerge i from the camrB'.rp wUh flying col- - "ors. The peTle ya flA tt Vnow the word failure in the matter of re-- - sponding to the call of th govern- - ment and there will be no let up un-- v til the town is well over the top. : , The women of the town, have work-- r ed valiantly in the campaign and ' n Wwt,callT every home In the camp V has been visited. Of those visited there are a few who have hot respond-ed, but; they are, expected, to. during . ' the nflt few days. The War Savings Stamps affirt one of the beet invest-- , ments obtainable and there is hardly anyone who cannot afford to take a 4 4v- - ' few of the baby bonda. The purchaser of these bonds should he need the 'j money at any time can convert them . Into cash by giving notice of ten days at the post office. So buying them is just like putting money In the bank and they draw interest at the rate of four per cent compound interest 1 $50; Joseph Grant, $30; iMrs. Carrie Greer, $30; Harry Grorgon, $35; H.

Ferrell, who has resided in Bingham for four years, and who has carried mail most of the time and t j was printer for the Press-Bulleti- dur-ing the past year, left Monday for i Tucson, Arizona, where he will enter tthe State University and take a spe ' cial course of training provided for officers in the service of tfee United States forces. ' ,' Ferrell is a native of the Sunflower State, but he has been in Utah so long that he might be classed as an old timer. He is a good fellow. Id fact there are not may better fel-lows to be found. He is capable, honest and companionable. (He is well educated and is a man of wide read-ing and Is well versed on many mat-ters of general Interest at this time. He belongs to the intellectual strata of humanity and is a man of unim-peachable integrity. He is also a man of courage and is not of the type who would falter in the face cf danger, and witha), he has youth, energy and ability, a trinity which augurs for sue-- , cess. He will be mtased in (Bingham, j but his friends here feel sure that he j will give a good account of himself j when he faces the Huns on the field . of carnage. COPPERFIELD IS VISITED HI' DISASTROUS Fl u Splendid School Building And Five Residences And Apartment Houses Destroyed By Midnight Conflagration Tenants Were ' Aroused From Their Slumbers By Angry Flames Loss . Nearly $50,000 Many Are Left Destitute. . ; The greatest fire In the history bf " Copperfield ' and the most disastrous In the entire camp since 1895 broke out in an apartment house shortly af-ter midnight Wednesday morning, de-stroying two large apartment houses. v three residences, the splendid school building and partially destroyed two other reuidences, entailing a loss ap proximately $50,000. The fire originated in the rear of ' one of the Caulfiold apartment houses presumably by a spark from a pass- - ing locomotive, and had made great headway before It was discovered. -- There were eight families living In the apartment houses and many of the occupants had barely time to es-cape Into the street, leaving their - belongings to be consumed by the! flames. "Between 50 and 100 were mada homeless ar.d many ' of those were left without clothes. , The flames spread rapidly over the dry wooden structure and but for ' -- the heroic work of the firemen may have swept the entire town. The Cop-- perfleld firemen commenced their work at once and a call was sent to Lower Bingham and the two fire de-partments from here responded at once. It wgb a desperate fight com-batting the flames reaching into the heavens to save adjoining buildings. 'Before the fury of the conflagration was checked the flames leaped acrosa the street and caught the residences adjoining the school building and then tho school building Itself caught fire Owing to the location of the school building the water pressure was not sufficient to throw an effective stream on the roof and could not be savwl. But the water was used with telling effect on the bulllings on either side of the apartment houses. Such floods were turned on these buildings that In spite of the intense heat no other structures on that side of the-stre-were totally destroyed and this prob-ably saved tha town from being swept off the map. The 'Bingham firemen- - wrro not able to get In their best work when they arrived owing to the fact that the Copperfleld and iBIngham connec-tions are not uniform, it is under-stood that they have reducers to use In case of such emergency, but they could not be located at the time. ' The losses consisted of the school building which cost about $20,000, but which could not be replaced for less than $25,000 or $30,000; the Caul-fie- ld apartments, $12,000; two resl-- dences belonging to J. Richards, one residence belonging to George Sim-mons, and two residences belonging to 'Mr. Caulfleld partly dostrovwl. No estimate has ben placed on the fur-niture and other .belongings of the tenants, but it would reach well into the thousands. - " A committee wes appointed Wed-nesday to solicit contributions for " those made destitute, by the fire and the people In the camp are respond-ing freely to their cause. The appearance of .the fire strick- en district next morning was indeed ghastly. The bleak wall of the school building were still standing, the debris of the apartment houses wen still standing, many firemen who had fought the flames and res- - ' cued children during the nirht were still on the scene viewing the havoc The school building w.is Insured under a blanket policy which Is un-derstood to be about the value of the structure at the me It was erect-ed, the Caulfleld property was insur- - ' ed for $6,000. The other property was without Insurance, The schorl building will be rebuilt Immed'ntely according to Information received from F. (W. Quinn. member of the district board of education, anrl it will be modern in every respect with stesra heat and other conveni-ences. Some were inclined to be-lle-that the walls of the old build-ing were uninjured and might be built to. but It is understood that th board of education will not tike nnv chances and will erect a new buildiriK outright. Every possible offort will be made to see that the school chll-dre- n of Copperfleld will be cared for when the next session of school cou- - verses. KOSSQVO DAY WAS CELEBRATED 8Y SERBIANS The Serbians of the camp la'Ji Krl-- I day celebrated Kobeovo Day in com-memoration of the great battle fouglit i between the Serbians and the TurXa I on the plain of Kossovo (plain of the iBmtkbirds) on June 28,' 1389. It was one of the bloodiest battles in the history of the world and not only thousands of Serbians and Turks met their death In it, but also both the j Serbian Czar,Lazar and the Turkish I Sultan Murad were killed. It was a decisive blow to the Serbian nation. ' to the entire southeast of Europe and to Christendom, and the Turks ad-vanced to the gates of Vienna, keep-- j ing BubJtM?ated fcr centuries couth-easter- n Europe. But notwithstanding the fact that the (Serbians were van-quished in this great battle and lost their liberty for many vears they hare ever since celebrated Kososvo Day because their valiant soldiers fought with such bravery on this oc-casion as to greatly weaken the Mo-- j hammedans and cave the Christian : armies in other countries time to pre-- , pare to meet and battle the fanatics who had decided to make their reli-gion supreme by the might of the sword. . The memory of .the battle Is deep-ly rooted in the heart of the Serbian nation. From generation to genera-tion the tradition of the battle waa handed down and the men who fought and died there for liberty. And Ser-bians in all parts of the world have an annual celebration on the 28th of June In honor of the men who prefer red a glorious death to a shameful life. Sicne then they have fought the Turk almost continuously until the Balkan war of 1912-1- when they com-pletely defeated their old enemy and gained lor 'themselves that long sought freedom and avenged the de-feat at Kossovo. The Serbians were celebrating this great national day when the Austrian Crown Prince visited 9ara1evo, June 28, 1S14. And a Serbian writer in the New York Times points out that this visit in itself to a province populated by Serbians which had recently been J annexed by Austria waa a provoca-tion for the assassination which is , accredited as the cause of the war. I The Serbians met In Phoenix last, Friday to celebrate that day. And , they not only talked over the strug-gles of the past and their trials and i tribulations, but added something of value to the occasion by taking stepn to further assist ip the winning . of the war. Their enthusiasm was high I and 43 men at the time came forward to go to the army. This number was later increased to 54. So that num-ber of Serbians will leave here next week for Europe to fight or ' their liberty as their ancestors have done for centuries. In view of the. laree number of recrulU to leave next woek Joe Melich has secured a special car I to take them to Chicago from where they will be dispatched tc, the battle front. And besides getting this number of recruits they also raised some money for the Serbian Red Cross, the Ser-bla- n National dfonse and for tbe blan National War mission. The amount raised on this occaiion was $700. And they are not through with It yot, but will raise more. A Red Cross committee wa.i appointed to so-licit funds and carry on the work. Tha committee is composed of Joe 'Mellch, Phillip Ziglch, Pete Sudako-- : j vich. Mile Bogdanovich. Bogo Uzlac, ;Nick Vovkovich, Vujo Borich and Bo-z- o j fMelfkich. This committee has :Ibeen promised assistance by Mavor jQ. B. Kelley, J. E. Zwicky and J. W. J I Brlnghurst, The Serbians are full of the patr-iotic J spirit and they have done .nd jare doinir a great work towards hel-ping to win the war. Out of their rosl-- ' dents here they have already sent to the army 102 soldiers and next week they send 54 more which win make 156 in all. With this last lint they are sending practically every avail-able man for the army with the ex-ception of those who have depend-ents. They will have a meeting In Phoe-nix, Sunday, designated especially for the 54 new recruits who are to leave next Tuesday for the war.
