Red Cross Work
IS Well Started
Local Ladies Work at High
School Five Afternoons of
Each Week

The Redwood Falls Red Cross
Branch has its work well organ
lied and the actual work of sew
ing is well started. The hours
from two to five of the first five
days of each week are spent in
the domestic science rooms at
the high school building wnere
machines, cutting tables, etc.,
are ready at hand, and the MAX
ing of hospital garments and
supplies is progressing nicely.
Mrs. G. R. Pease, chairman
of the local branch, has arranged
a schedule for working as fol-
lows:
Monday. :. Presbyterian ladies
Tuesday. -. Methodist ladies
Wednesday. :. Catholic ladies
Thursday. -. Lutheran ladies
and Methodist Country Aid
Friday -. Episcopal Guild
Mrs. Pease wishes to empha-
size the fact that this schedule
need not be strictly adhered to;
any lady not belonging to any
of these organizations is well
come to come any afternoon she
finds it possible, or any lady who
finds it more convenient to come
on some other afternoon than
the one for which her church
society is scheduled, is welcome
to come at the time best suited
to her convenience. And those
who find it possible to devote
more than one afternoon a week
to this work will also be cordial
ly welcomed at any time. More
workers are needed and the SER
vices of any one who can sew
are earnestly requested Ladies
should not stand in fear of in
truding- they are all needed and
are urged to take up the work
whenever they find it possible.
Mrs. Pease also requests that
all housekeepers who have worn
out table linen, bed spreads or
bed linen which they will do
nate to the cause, shall let her
| know about it at once. There
is a very great demand for this
material, and it will be most
gratefully received.
/ The needles for the knitting
work have also. arrived and may
be obtained at the Palace dry
goods store.

Entertain The Boys

The Red Cross Chapter of
Redwood Falls is very anxious
that all possible courtesy and
kindness shall be shown the
Boys Of Company L during their
stay at the armory at Redwood
Falls. Many of the boys are
away from home for practical
" the first time in their lives,
and they should carry away
with them a happy memory of
the days spent here. Individual
citizens will best know how this
suggestion may be carried out.
It is probable also that the Red
Cross chapter will devise some
means Of providing packed
luncheons for the boys the morn
ing they leave for Fort Smelling
so that the experience of last
year when they had nothing to
eat until late afternoon, need
not be repeated. The boys are
not the kind who would protest
about going without "rations"
when necessity demands, but
the Red Cross workers who have
their interests thoroughly at
heart can see no reason for their
suffering of this unnecessary
discomfort.

First Annual Meeting

In accordance with the change
made in the fiscal year at the
headquarters at Washington, the
first annual meeting of the Red
wood County Red Cross Chap
ter will be held at the Christian
Church Friday evening, July 20.
The first announcement made
was that the fiscal year would
END October /; this was later
changed to July /, but the an
nouncement did not reach Mrs.
Mary E. Sanders, chairman of
the Redwood County Chapter,
early enough to permit her to
call the meeting before July 20.
At this meeting, each branch
chapter will be represented by
delegates and a new board of
directors will be elected, and
new officers appointed from this
board. This is an open meet
ing and the public is urged to
attend. There will be an inter-
esting program given.

Back From Montana

The members of the motor
party which left Redwood Falls
recently for a trip through Mon
tana, returned last Friday after
having made a trip of 2080
miles. The party consisted of
Byron Whittet, j. F. Jones and
Ed. Wells Of Redwood Falls and
C. J. Scott and Commissioner
James Gaffney of Delhi. They
drove as far as Shawmut where
they visited Mr.. Gaffney's sons
and then returned home by way
of Billings, covering a different
route from that taken upon the
outgoing trip. They camped dur
ing the entire trip, taking their
tent with them and found the
Montana and Dakota climate
most pleasant for outdoor sleep
ing. The party visited many
points of interest, a large irri-
cation plant not far from Bill
lings, proving Of especial inter-
est. In many places crops have
suffered greatly for lack of rain,
and where rain had been plen-
tiful the crops are about as good
as in Redwood County. Commits
sioner Gaffney is firm in the be-
lief that many of the farmers
in these western states fail to
get results because they attempt
to farm 500 acres with about
the same number of men and
the equipment a Minnesota
farmer uses on a quarter section.

War Council Grateful
June 80, 1917.

-'""-- June 80, 1917.
Mrs. Mary E. Sanders, -
Redwood Falls, MINI.
Dear Mrs. Sanders: At the close
of the wonderfully successful
campaign for the Red Cross War
Fund | intended, in behalf of the
War Council, to send you and
your associates, a telegram of
thanks and congratulation for
your splendidly effective work.
On reflection, however, | decided
in view of the nation wide ex-
tent of our organization that it
would be more economical, and
equally satisfactory, to write to-
you instead of telegraphing.
We of the War Council are
deeply grateful to you, to your
colleagues, to the devoted men
and women of local Red Cross
Chapters and Auxiliaries, and to
every element and individual in
your community who aided by
service and contribution.
There is no method by which
we can reach the legion of in
dividuals, organizations, church
es, newspapers, societies, banks,
companies and firms whose unit
ed effort has provided this great
fund for humanity, and if thru
your press and by other means
you can make public expression
of our gratitude we shall deeply
appreciate the courtesy. Their
joint accomplishment has stirred
the pride of every American.
wish to add my personal
thanks to you, and through you,
to all who contributed to the
splendid result.
Very sincerely yours,
III. p. DAWSON,
Chairman, Red Cross
War Council.

Company Officers
Get Promotions
Officers Receive Official Notice of
Promotions Announced Some
Time Ago

Captain M. w. Hingeley, COM
handing Company L, last week
received official notice of his pro-
motion to the position as Major
of the Third Battalion, Second
Minnesota Infantry. This pro-
motion has been pending for
some time and the order for
mobilization was followed by no.
tice from headquarters that the
change had been made. Major
Hingeley will nave headquarters
at Redwood Falls until the Sec
ond Regiment goes to Fort Shell
ing. The Third Battalion is COM
posed of Companies |, L, M and
K, SO that the boys of the home
company will still be under the
charge Of Major Hingeley, under
whose captaincy they spent the
seven months at the border.
Monday afternoon Major Hin
geley received the notification
of the appointment of Lieut.. w.
B. Clement TO the captaincy Of
Company L, of Lieut.. John Lau-
terbach's promotion from the
second to the first lieutenancy,
and the appointment of Sergeant
H L. Jordan to the second lieu
tenancy. Unofficial announce
ment of these three promotions
was also made several weeks
ago. This puts Company L un-
der three men splendidly suited
to the work for which they have
been appointed and men who will
have the best interests of the
home boys at heart throughout
the service.

Walnut Grove
Gets State Road
County Commissioners Desig-
nate Road from Murray COun-
ty to MilrOy Road

Walnut Grove was represented
before the Redwood County
Board of Commissioners last
Tuesday by forty of the livest
delegates this august body has
had to deal with for some lime
past. ]. Hesnault, w. J. Nc
Donald, j. Danielson, w. B. Har-
wood, and a lot Of others Of the
same kind, decided a state road
leading from the boundary line
of Redwood-Murray Counties to
the state road connecting Mil
roy and Tracy, was necessity
for the western part Of the coun-
ty and a just thing for Walnut
Grove which lies directly in this
path.
Consequently the Walnut
Grove citizens banded together
and came over and insisted and
of course they got what they
came for, as they were entitled
to. The new road will lead north
from the boundary line men
toned, through the village of
Walnut Grove, then between the
townships of North Hero and
Springdale, Gales and Johnson
vile, up into Westline and Gran
tie Rock where it connects with
the Milroy road, thus serving
one of the best sections of the
county in the most serviceable
way.
In Murray County this road
connects with the Black and Vel
low Trail and will form a part
of this much travelled highway.

Guard Modified
Sunday, July IS
Company L Now at Redwood

1856 MEN ENLISTED
lab Men Examined; Others Ex-
amined Soon; Uniforms Com
ing This Week

Company L of the Second Min
nesota Infantry modified Sum
day, July Is, and is now at the
armory at Redwood Falls await
ing orders for entraining which
Captain w. B. Clement expects
will arrive the last part of next
week.
The Company has been splen-
didly recruited and now consists
of 1876 enlisted men, 143 of whom
have passed the required exam
nation given by Major Merrill.
Out of sixteen men examined
Monday night fourteen passed
the examination. If this pro-
portion holds good with those
still to be examined the Com
pany will exceed war strength
Practically all enlisted men
are on the ground; the three
men not yet here being James
Thompson Of Montana, Frank
Cranmer of Wisconsin and Alva
Schaffer of Idaho. These men
will arrive this week as will also
the eight men coming from Ma
jor Hingeley's home town of
Floodwood and the seven men
coming from Mount Vernon, Ia,
with Lieutenant H. L. Jordan.
Private Elmer Alexander of
Pipestone, one Of the new mem
bers of the Company, was called
home temporarily Tuesday by
the serious illness Of his mother.
Uniforms have been a bit slow
in coming SO Captain Clement
requested the local clothier F.
G. Hubbard to order uniforms,
costing about $500. These
will probably arrive the last of
the week and the boys will then
Ebe suitably equipped SO far as
clothing is concerned The re-
mainder of their equipment will
be given them upon their ar
rival at Fort Smelling, should
they go there, or at Deming, New
Mexico, where they will go for
training. It is still an open ques-
tion whether they will go to- the
Minnesota Fort at all before go
| ing to their permanent station
1t is quite likely each of the
boys will be treated with anti
toxin making them immune from
typhoid and smallpox before
leaving Redwood Falls. This
treatment will be given by 10
cal physician. The boys are in
Isplendidly physical condition now
and are as fine a looking lot as
could be found anywhere. The
| five hours of drill work each day
is taken easily and with appar-
ent enjoyment by every man in
the Company.
The question of lodging the
boys comfortably was solved fin.
ally by the officers finding rooms
| for several at private homes, q
large number are being taken
care of at Hotel McAllister and
the rest are sleeping very com.
fortably on improvised beds al
| tn armory. Meals are taken al
Gallea Bros. restaurant.

Ladies Are Shown
Art OF Canning
SrOf. Erickson of University
Farm Gives Valuable Demon
stratiOn at High School

One of the most interesting
and instructive demonstrations
Redwood Falls has ever had,
was the canning demonstration
given by Professor Erickson Of
: the University Farm, at the do
mestic science rooms of the high
school Friday, July 13. Mr..
Erickson was ably assisted by
Miss Ada Peick and Prof. and
Mrs. F. L. French of Redwood
Falls. Two demonstrations were
; given, both morning and after
noon, the first being attended by
fifty ladies and the second by a
hundred, fifty while many more
ere turned away for lack of
room. The interest was intense
and every woman who attended
feels more than repaid for the
attendance.
Mr.. Erickson's work showed
the entire process required for
the canning Of fruit by the cold
pack method, showing the oper-
atoms of blanching, dipping
packing and sterilizing. He used
glass cans, preferably with glass
caps and urged his audience to
exert great care to see That each
top fitted exactly the jar with
which it was to be used, and
that only the very best quality
and most perfect rubbers were
used.
Mr.. Erickson's demonstration
also showed that elaborate or
expensive equipment was unnec-
yssary for this sort of canning
the family wash boiler with
: an improvised bottom which will
keep the cans from coming in
contact with the boiler or each
other is all the apparatus re-
quired. Peas, beans, asparagus,
carrots, beets, beet greens,
strawberries pineapple and rhu-
barb and cherries were canned
during the demonstration.
An interesting and compre-
hensive set of bulletins has been
prepared by the government for
the convenience of those who
wish to can by this method, and
a number of these sets will be
sent to Redwood Falls soon.
Since the supply is limited they
will be given only to those who
particularly request them. Those
who have not left their names
with Mr.. French for these bull
letins are requested to do so.
Names may also be left at The
Gazette office if more convenient.
This was Prof. Erickson's first
visit to Redwood Falls and he
expressed himself as greatly
pleased with the spirit shown
here. Mr.. Erickson has charge
of all the club work in the state
and expects to return to Red
wood County within three or
four weeks to meet with the
boys and girls interested in the
various contest clubs.
