Warning Against Propaganda.

A telegram has been sent out to all
Red Cross division managers by Har-
vey d. Gibson, general manager of the
American Red Cross. The message
deals with the question of the rumors,
innuendoes, and criticisms which are
being industriouslv circulated against
the Red Cross. Mr.. Gibson believes
them to be part of u great anti-pa-
triotic propaganda. They have ema-
mated simultaneously from too many
parts Of the country to be merely acct
dental. He asks that each chapter
send to division headquarters accounts
of all such rumors and criticisms being
circulated, as well as statements of
sources from which they come. Every
criticism should be challenged and care
fully investigated The Red Cross is
being run as an open book. 1t has no
secrets, it is making sincere effort
to serve mankind and is doing it as
carefully and economically as it knows
how. Its accounts are to be audited
by the war department, and the ut
most effort is being made to give pub
licity to all its activities.
Mr.. Gibson asks members and the
public generally to proceed on the the
DRY that nothing against the Red Cross
should be believed until thorough
investigation has been made.

SAVED FROM THE WASTE.
East Putney Women Put Canned
Products On Sale in Brsttleborc

Women of Fast Putney have adopted
scheme whereby the fruits and vegc-
tables which undeA ordinary circum-
stances have been owed to go to the
waste pile or remain on the ground and
rot untouched can be put to excellent
use, and specimens of their handiwork
are on exhibition and for sale in the
board of trade rooms. They include
mixed pickles, beets, sweet apple pre-
serve, peach pickles, canned pump
llins, picked pears, cucumber pickles,
etc. While there is not a large amount
the work represents what can actually
be accomplished if people will save
the left-ovcrs and put them to similar
use.
1t is the intention of the women of
East Putney, under the leadership of
Mrs. c. $. Pratt, to organize a com
munity canning club next year for the
purpose of utilizing just such material
The club will can any goods for those
who desire if they furnish the cans
and sugar and pay q nominal fee. The

rooms are on sale for small cost.

Yam Club to Be Formed.

A Yarn club is to be formed here
along the lines followed in other towns
Membership fee is 81, or % cents a
month for four months. The slogan
is, eff you cant fight, knit, if YOU
can t knit, buy yarn"
The town is to be canvassed for
members, and an urgent appeal is made
for cooperation. The high cost of
yarn, the great number of wooden gar
ments called for, to make even our
own men comfortable, the call for mil
lions of surgical bandages without
which the Americans in Europe will
suffer and may die, all constitute q
tremendous appeal to one s generosity.
We must not only give but give until
it hurts.
