RED CROSS RALLY
Stirring Toledo Meeting-Need of
Knitted Articles - Refutation of
False Rumors - Workers Greatly
Needed at the Rooms and in the
Homes.

Those who attended the Red Cross
meeting at Toledo last week enjoyed
a real treat. Mr.. Garfield, director of
the Lake division of which we are
part; Mr.. Abbott, DR.. MacRossie, who
is just back from the front, and others
were present and addressed the meet
ing.
Word comes to US that it is very
cold in France and clothing and
knitted articles are very much needed
for the soldiers in this country and
abroad; the Red Cross has a director
at the military camps and the manu-
factured articles are distributed to
our boys as needed and in proportion
to the supplies on hand; when a con-
tingent is sent abroad the boys are
supplied from the warehouses in New
York city or at other places from
which they may sail. DR.. MacRos-
sic says he has been abroad and has
seen our boys when they received the
knitted goods from our Red Cross /;
that if we could but see the looks of
gratitude upon the faces of the boys
when they receive these articles we
would redouble our efforts along this
line and do all we cap to relieve them
as the winter comes on they will be
needed very, very much. DR.. MacRos-
sic also says that when any person
tells you that the boys do not re-
ceive these articles that such person
does not know what he is talking
about, and that you can put the story
down as untrue; then when any per-
son tells you that these articles are
sold to the boys by the Red Cross
you can put that story down as un-
true and unfounded.
It is very unfortunate that such
stories are told. The latest story that
has been called to the attention of the
local chapter is to the effect that q
young man named Woolson, now sta.
toned at Camp Sherman, had writer
to his mother, who now lives at Mt
Vernon, that he had bought some ar
ticle of the Red Cross and had tt
pay an exorbitant price for the same
In response to a letter written tht
mother of this young man, Mrs. Wool
son says this story is absolutely un
founded; that her son never wrote no.
spoke to her about the Red Cross
and this supposed purchase never tool
place. Let US once for all put thes,
stories aside and get busy and d.
what we can to aid in this grea
struggle.
One of the speakers at the Toled
meeting said that her husband is
surgeon and is now located some
where in France; that he has beel
compelled to stand between two oper
ating tables for as much as 16 hour
out of "a, turning from one .tabl

COUNCIL MEETING
Council Advises Patrons Not to Pay
Ready to Serve Fee Attached to Gas
.Bills-Mayor and President of COun-
ell Appointed to Abstract Vote.

Councilmen found a number of
problems awaiting solution at their
meeting last Monday night. There
were bills that seemed to be larger
than they ought to be, and some bills
that had evidently been held in cold
storage, for no one seemed to remem-
Der when and what for the various
items on the bills had been procured.
Members of the Finance committee
did considerable sputtering and the
concensus of opinion was that the
council should adopt a rule requiring
all bills to be presented within at
least 80 days after being contracted
for.
The matter of the extra charge
made by the Gas company, of % cents
a month on each meter called by the
company "Ready to Service" charge,
was discussed. After investigation
here and in Columbus, the council is
convinced that the charge is illegal
and the following motion has been
passed by the council, which needs no
further comment:
"MOVED, That the newspapers pub
lished in the village of Wauseon be
requested to publish a notice in each
of said papers to the patrons of the
Ohio Gas, Light and Coke Company
of Wauseon, Ohio, notifying them that
the Council of the Village of Wauseon
advises them to refuse to pay the said
company the charge of 25 cents pc
month, denominated the Readiness to
Serve Charge; it being, in the opinion
of the council in conflict with the
terms and conditions of the ordinance
of said village authorizing the price
at which gas shall be furnished to
the patrons of the Ohio Gas, Light
and Coke Company in said village.
The council further advises that in
case the Gas company should, because
of refusal of patron to pay said 'readi-
ness to serve Charge attempt to re-
move meter and shut off gas, after
tender of payment of regular rates
the fact should be reported to the
mayor at once"
After presentation of the matter by
H. H. Williams Jr. of the Fire de-
partment, and recommendation of Fire
Chief Overmeyer, the council author.
lied the Fire department to procure
and install the necessary equipment
for re-charging the storage batteries
| in the auto fire truck.
On recommendation from the BoarC
of Elections, the mayor and presi
dent of the council were appointed tx
canvass and abstract the vote pollet
in Wauseon for municipal officers al
the election November 6.

RED CROSS NOTES

Several representatives of the Full
ton County chapter attended the meet
ing of the Lake division of the Ameri-
can Red Cross held in Toledo Friday,
November 3. The Lake division is
made up of the chapters in Ohio, Indi-
ana and a part of Kentucky. There are
291 chapters with a membership of
$4,000 in this division.
The keynote of the Toledo meet
ing was "Speed up Red Cross work"
With thousands of American boys al
ready in the trenches in France, no
woman can shut her eyes to the i'm
perative need of the work her hands
can do. The warehouses of Europe
must be filled with supplies before
the boys actually need them. Trans
portation is too uncertain to wait un-
til the hospitals are filled with Amer
lean boys. Shall some brave boy suf-
fer because you have failed to do
your share?
The call is for knitters, bandage
makers and workers at the sewing
machines. 1t is hoped that no woman
will be unpatriotic enough to cro-
chet and embroider for Christmas this
year, instead of giving her time to
Red Cross work. Will you come to
the Red Cross rooms and see what
you can do to help?
Mrs. Blair reports 127 knitters in
the Wauseon chapter. They are fur
nished with wool from headquarters
and are doing splendid work.
l.
the direction of Mrs. Altstetter are
knitting for the Red Cross. Included
in this number are several boys. The
students are already at work on socks
and sweaters. There is a class for
beginners also.
Knitters will please note that the
new directions for sweaters call for
"a instead of so stitches and % in
stead of 25 inches in front. This
saves time and wool and the sweater
is long enough.

FAYETTE-wAUsEoN CONTEST

Some time ago a contest was en-
tered into between the Mems classes
of Wauseon and Fayette M. E.
churches and Fayette won. 1t was
then up to the Wauseon men to do
honor to the Fayette men. Last Sun
day was finally decided upon. About
go men from here went over in au-
tomobiles, reaching Fayette about
the noon hour. A fine pot-luck dinner
feast was provided by members of
both classes. The Fayette fellows re-
ceived and entertained the guests right
royalty. To see those long tables la
den with such a vast quantity of
''eats" of various kinds indicated that
food conservation had not taken seri-
Gus effect as yet.
After dinner a program of music
and speeches was had that could not
well be surpassed. Mr.. C. M. Bulger,
president of the Wauseon class, was
made chairman. America" and 'The
Star Spangled Banner" opened and
closed the program. Prof. C. M. Sims
of Wauseon High school rendered two
solos, greatly delighting the 100 or
more men present. The Fayette
speakers were the Rev. S. J. Walker,
pastor; Earl Baldwin, president of
the class; Superintendent Chase
teacher, and the Reverend Mr.. Caller,
pastor of the Church of Christ, a
guest.
The Wauseon speakers were the
Rev. George B. Wiltsie, pastor; Supt
C. D. Perry, Mr.. C. J. Ives, and Judge
A. M. Barber.
Mr.. Wiltsie gave one of the key
notes to the program when he de
clared that some Of the high-grade
standards in Wauseon were now ac-
counted for in that Fayette had
trained and provided some of its best
citizens.
The program lasted more than two
hours and was full of vim, cheer
righteous earnestness and incentives
for larger things, not only in the
classes and churches represented, bu-
in every good thing that is present
ing its needs and calling for aid.

Dear SIR
The Y. NJ. C. A Home in our view
point cannot be commended to highly.
There are five buildings for the 37th
division or one building for five thous-.
and men and there are five courteous,
willing and able workers to each build
ing.
They have Bible study at a. M and
Wednesday night, Monday and Thurs
day nights motion pictures and a good
speaker or musical number on all other
nights of the week. The buildings
are open during the day and have good
supply of stationery, books, daily and
weekly papers from all the surround
ing cities. The piano and victrola
are appreciated in no small measure
as both are kept busy most of the time.
The nearest building and the one
that we frequent mostly is perhaps
a quarter of mile from our Company
| have seen from three to five hundred
soldiers there good many nights,
some reading, writing home, singing,
others smoking, playing the Victrola
or visiting.
The Y. M. C. A. furnish a good
warm resting room, place of amuse-
ment and keep the soldiers in camp
where if there were no such places to
go many of the boys would wander to
town instead and would part with their
earnings and it is quite probable some
would not stop there. While in the
Y NJ. C. A's. we find an atmosphere
most helpful, instructive and home
like. =.
Some very able and high priced men
such as Prof. Hutchins of Oberlin Uni
versity have sacrificed position also fl
nancially to aid in the grand work.
Our boys in khaki sincerely thank
you people at home who are with US in
spirit tho they cannot be in person
Your friend,
Ernest.

From othe,.s word comes to US hat
surgical supplies are very much
needed; that at times they have been
driven to the use of paper for ban
dages.
Your Red Cross wants workers; it
wants knitters; it wants these work
ers very badly; it will furnish you the
yarn and all other supplies; we have
a supply of yarn on hand, secured
from the Cleveland headquarters, that
will be given out as long as it lasts
and when that is gone we will try
to get more-supplies cost you moth
ing; the chapter or the branch furnish
them. Branches can buy these sup
plies though the chapter; auxiliaries
are furnished the supplies without
cost. Won't you volunteer to work
and help, and do it now.
We must have money to carry on
this work. The chapter is planning a
rummage sale; if you have anything
to donate to this, call up the Red Cross
headquarters in Wauseon and say so;
give US clothing, furniture, shoes
vegetables, poultry, anything that will
sell and bring in money to carry or
the work. HELP, and HELP NOW
Remember, we want workers at the
rooms; we want knitters in the homes
wherever ten or more of you car
gather together and do work, form an
auxiliary and get busy. Make YOU
little gatherings count this fall ani
winter; do not fail to answer this ap
peal because you can only do little
This county has already shipped
more than 1,100 pounds of manufac

We must also see that our portion

those who have subscribed to the Re
lief Fund see that their subscription
is paid promptly, and when appealed
to again-as you will be-respont

THE KIDS KAN KANT KLUB

The Kids Kan KANT Klub is a new
club in Wauseon, just four weeks old,
and if you do not believe they can
knit look in the window of the Eager,
Standish, and HIATT Dry Goods store to
see the beautiful knitted afghan which
has been so happily knitted by will
ing fingers, and which will go across
the ocean to carry warmth to some
little Belgian baby and give it a truly
Christmas.
The club is composed of the follow
ing members:
Jane Smallman, years old; julius
Cole and William Henry Eager Jr., s
years old; Sterling Cole, Robert Nj
ley, Edwin Wager, and Hortense
Guilford, years old; Virginia Cole,
Esther Ziegler and Velda Viers, 10
years old; Katherine Grisier and Mar
garet Trimble, II years old; Louise
Grisier, II years old, and Hattie Viers,
IA years old.
When 100 squares had been fin
ished, the children began to look for
some one to crochet. Julius Cole said,
Il know my grandma will crochet the
squares together for u.s." and sure
enough, as that is just what we have
grandmas for. Grandma Struble had
to join the club in order to join the
pretty squares together and make q
really, truly afghan; and all of us
children are very grateful to her, for
of course the squares were not all
the same size, it being such a new
club, and grandma had to do her bit
to make it look so neat
Some of the children now are begin
ming to knit mufflers and wristlets-
and why not? for little children in
Toledo are knitting socks and a chi
of 5 years in Chicago has knitted
one sweater and begun another.
The children have collected the fol-
lowing:

If any one has yarn which can be
used for these afghans, will they
please telephone the children, and
they will call for it.
Why can we not have more K. K. K.
clubs for the children can surely knit
and many mothers and grandmothers
will be willing to teach and help. Our
enemy is using every means in order
to win this war and we must use all
of our power-man, woman and child
to make it as short as possible, and
save our young manhood from the ter
rible calamities our inhuman foe is in
ficting on all who come within his
power.
The right must win, and we are for
the right, and want our children to
do their part in this grand cause.
