THREE MORE DAYS
IN RED CROSS DRIVE
Efforts to Be Continued in Vermont UP
to Christmas Eve in Getting
$4,000 New Members.

BURLINGTON, Dec, 22.7-The member
ship campaign for the Red Cross will be
continued il Vermont up to Christmas
eve This leaves three more days in
which to put in renewed effort for the
q, 900 new members.
"Will the goal be reached" is the query
being asked by county managers, solicitors
and all Interested in seeing Vermont go
"over the top with the required number.
State Manager Darling says Vermont
will not dsappoint, that the communities
that fail to reach their quotas will be
more than made good by the communities
that secure a greater number of member
ships than were allotted to them.
Every reason is apparent for stating
that Caledonia county will be the banner
county Of the state The quota there was
1869, but up to last night the returns
showed 1865 and Gilbert NJ Campbell of
Lyndonville, who is conducting the cam
pagn in that county, said that it was
hoped the number would reach $500.
| Another county manager, James +.
| Dewey of Quechee, who is in charge OF
| Windsor county, is deserving of the high
est praise for what has been accomplished
there The quota was 1864 Last night 5
returns showed / 400 and Mr.. Dewey said
there would be no letting up of work, that
| the campaign would be continued up to
| the very close.
Little Grand Isle county has been DOING
excellent work BY $50 new members the
quota has been exceeded.
In Washington, Rutland and Franklin
counties the situation showed improve
ment today. Canvassers buckled TO their
work early and new members were
secured with less explanation than on
former days.
One Of the features of the day in Bur
lington was the getting OF 100 members
from the employees of the Queen City
Cotton Company This boosts the new
members in Burlington to in excess o
1000
The business of the country is war,
is the slogan put out by Chairman Oar
! ling The country is fast realizing thai
this is correct. Prompt action in every
thing pertaining to the war is necessary
Chairman Darling would like to see 500
new Red Cross members by Saturda,
night This would leave Sunday and Mon
: day in which to add to the prescribed
quota
Chittenden county is where lots Of worl
e must be done to reach the full quota o

gardless of the fuel used are: Attend
to the fire regularly; do not wait until
it has burned low and heat is needed
throughout the house. Often the need
can be anticipated and by attention at
the proper time trouble can be avoided
In addition, economy of fuel is more
likely to be obtained by fairly uniform
rates of burning than by attempting
to supply large amount of heat in a
short period and then suddenly check
ing the fire.
ssLet the size of the coal fired be as
nearly uniform as possible. Using coal
of uneven sizes prevents an even flow
of air through the fuel bed and in
