THE TREASURE AMI TRINKET

FUND

and trinkct fund feel very proud Of
their achievement for they have sent
thirty pounds of silver and gold TO be
melted and the money used, as those
in charge say, for the eyes and the
wings of our birdmeB. IL appeals es'
peciaIIy TO US as so many OF our boys
have enlisted in that branch and they
will do their part toward winning this
war and help to make this place
safe one in which to live. suSSeS-

worth trying out. Many women have
antique bits OF jewelry on which they

plying necessary funds and that OF
keeping antiques intact Mrs. John

better use. So send your old silver
and gold along and in that way do
little of your bit
