The National Special Aid society
met In the high school auditorium
Wednesday afternoon at 4:3O, the
president presiding. The treasurer re-
ported that dues amounting to S64had
been handed in and that canvas OF
the business men of the town had re-
suited in the collection of S37. The
leaders in charge of the penny fund
reported that $30.06 had been collect
ed since this fund was started three
weeks ago. It was decided best to
discontinue the activities Of Camp
Proctor unit, as it is understood that
the soldiers in our town will leave
IN such short time. It was found
that it was necessary to appoint an
assistant treasurer and Mrs. Ira B.
Townsend was asked to accept this
! office. The chairmen of the differ
ent units made splendid reports,
showing that our organization is
making wonderful progress along ev-
cry branch Of work. \
Mrs. E. l.. Holloway told in a very
interesting way the work accomplish
; ed by this society since its organi-
zation on May 21st. The National
