Indiana Branch of the Red Cross
Society is Getting Ready for
the Christmas Sale Again This
Year.
WOMEN'S CLUBS WILL
HAVE CHARGE AGAIN
Especial Effort Will Be Made to
Rush the Sale in Plymouth as
Was Done Here BY Local Club
Last Year.

The Indiana branch OF the
American Red Cross has begun
the effort to organize in cities and
towns over the state, local COM
mittees which will push the sale
Of Red Cross Christmas stamps
during November and December
The Red Cross Christmas stamp
bureau has been opened in room
246 OF the postoffice building in
Indianapolis and the month OF
October will be given to enhsting
the assistance of womens clubs,
tuberculosis societies and other
organizations 10 take charge OF
sales early, and make it easy for
the public to get the stamps for
holiday use.
In Plymouth last year, when
the first effort to sell the stamps
was made. the sales amounted to
quite sum. Now that the peo-
pie OF the state are familiar with
the stamps and the purpose for
which they are sold, it is believed
that the sales will largely increase
everywhere and that local COM
mittees can sell them with little
effort.
The Rel Cross Christmas
stamp follows the general idea on
postage stamp in that it can be
used on any kind of mail. 1t does
not, however, pay the postage on
letter, or package, but it bears
cheerful Christmas message
from the sender. The stamps are
attractive in design and the red
cross Of the American organiza-
tion has conspicuous place in it.
The stamps sell at one cent each,
and last year. business houses,
factories. banks and individuals
bought them to carry holiday
greetings to their friends.
The Red Cross is utilizing this
popular method to raise funds
with which to fight the white
plague. Two-thirds OF the money
from the stamp sales in Indiana
will be used i'm the warfare
against tuberculosis in this state,
and one-third will go to the gen
eral treasury OF the American
Red Cross to promote general
warfare against the white plague
over the country. An especial Ell
fort will be mIade to push the sale
of the stamps in Plymouth. The
stamp bureau has sent its first
order to national headquarters at
Washington, asking for 100000
stamps. and the bureau hopes to
sell 100000 or $4,000 worth,
of them before January 1st.

FACTORIES ARE WHAT
WE NOW WANT HERE
Excellent System of Pavement
Built by Former Councils Put
City in Line for More Indus
tries-Republicans Fitted.

"Boom Plymouth : is TO be the
slogan for the Republican cardi-
dates for the city Offices, to be
elected on Tuesday, November ,
By scanning the Republican
ticket, it will be found to consist
of men, every one OF whom will
work for the best interests OF the
city-wrk to make Plymouth
bigger and better city.
Plymouth is now in line for
more factories and industries.
Several years have been spent in
improving the city, in construc-
ton of miles of paveInent, and
now what we want is more in
dustries The railroad facilities
are the best in Northern Indiana.
From Plymouth, there is a direct
connection with all of THE cities
and natural resources of the state
and nation. Directly connected
with the trade centers OF the ma
ton, with the great lakes at Chi
cago. Michigan City, and Cleve-
land, connected with the leading
critics of the state. Plymouth has
the exporting facilities what she
now needs is the industries. and
more things to export.
AS stated above. former city
councils of Plymouth, have pur-
sued the policy OF Improvement,
mostly. No especial efforts have
been made within the past few
years of obtaining more in'ius-
tries, more factories, the things
which draw inhabitants, and keep
the young men at home.
Factory Men Represented.
No one understands how to To-
cate a factory, better than a
manufacturer, himself.
AS oresident of the Edgerton
Manufacturing Company, the
leading industry of Plymouth.
Mr.. c. s. Cleveland, the Repub-
rican candidate for mayor is a
factory man. The basket factory
employees more men, than any
other industry in the city. A. r.
Chzbe, proprietor of the Clizbe
Mfg. Co.. and Joseph Swindell,
proprietor of the Swindell Pack
ing Plant are employers OF
large numbers OF Plymouth
workingmen. These three institu-
tions have paid hundreds OF thou
sands OF dollars, in wages in this
city. These men understand what
a factory requires, and how to
obtain them, how to get them to
locate in a town. We have almost
enough pavement in Plymouth
what we want now is more facto-
ries.
