RED CROSS SOCIETY IS
GROWING in NUMBERS
MORE THAN FIVE HUNDRED MEMBERS ARE
NOW ENROLLED IN The WATER
TOWN CHAPTER

organization was incorporated under
the name of the American National
Red Cross. 1t is an association OF
100000, but present needs make a
membership of 100000 imperative.
The American Red Cross gives vol
unteeer aid to the sick and wounded
of our army and navy in time of war
1t gives aid to the dependents of sol
diers and sailors called to the colOrs
1t gives relief to sufferers from ia
mine, flood, disease, and other dis
asters. 1t makes no distinction OF
class, creed or race. 1t is a relief
clearing house, permanent, respons-
ible and experienced. 1t is a semi
governmental agency for the cOllec-
ton of money and supplies for relief
purpOsese. 1t is the only volunteer
society authorized by the government
to aid our land and naval forces in
time of war
The purposes of the American Red
Cross are thus to serve as a medium
of communication between the people
of the United States and their army
and navy in time of war and to derive
and carry on a system of national and
international relief in time of peace
Any citizen of the United States
may become a member of the Ameri-
can Red Cross by paying the member
ship imposes no obligation of personal
his or her name and address. Member
ship imposes no obligation of personal
service either in time of war or peace
Few persons can serve the Red
Cross in the field But everyone can
serve at home, by becoming a men,
Der, by getting his friends to join, by
spreading a knowledge of the work,
and by participating in the work of
the local chapter.
The work of this great charitable
relief organization is maintained by
the sums collected from membership
fees.
Since 1905 the American Red Cross
has collected and distributed over
100000 The money has been chief
ly expended in cases of famine, dis
ease and disasters in time of peace
Now war is upon u.s. The demands
upon the Red Cross are increased
many fold. Our boys are going out to
the front from every hamlet, if not
from every homee. The Red Cross
will follow them into the camps; sit
down in the trenches with them; will
give them every care and service that
the resources of the association will
permit.
But the Red Cross is no respectOr
of persOns-it will treat with an even
hand the helpless soldiers of the
enemy who in the chances of war may
become prisoners.
The Red Cross does not go forth in
the spirit of war, but solely to miti-
gate its horrors. 1t asks in charity and
bestows with sympathy It's sign is
the symbol Of the Red Cross as it's
work is the spirit of the Cross.
Become a member now!
In any case become an annual mem
Der and if circumstances will permit
contribute more fully, even to a life
membership.

More than five hundred members
are now enrolled in the Watertown
chapter of the Red Cross society and
names are being added daily. Lake
Mills and Johnson Creek have been
added to Watertown's chapter as aux
iliary bodies The northern part of
Jefferson county will also be consider
ed a part of the local chapter.
There are at the present time six
teachers in the chapter who are quail
flied to teach others the methods en-
plOyed in making the various articles
used in Red Cross work. They took
the examination recently under the
direction of Mrs. Dennis of Madison,
who is in charge of the work being
done there. Mrs. Dennis stated that
the articles made here were perfect
for the uses.
The local chapter meets in the gym
nasium of the new high school build
ing twice week. There is an average
attendance of rs or 100 The chapter at
present is making: Bed socks, frac-
ture pillows, pajamas, gauze and mus
lin bandages, wash cloths, knitting
socks, tray covers out of old linen,
and handkerchiefs of old sheets and
pillow cases. All these articles must
pass inspection before they are ac-
cepted
Donations are coming in nicely but
more are needed. The men can do
their share also. They cannot sew, but
they can buy the materials and let the
women do the work.
Field workers who have been can
vassing from houses to house during
the past week have hot turned in their
reports as yet. 1t isiexpected that the
number will reach the 500 mark by
the end of the week, the number neces-
sary to establish WatertOwn as a
chapter
1t is to the interest of the people in
Watertown who believe that the town
should get her due,to raise the num-
Der up to 500, for should Watertown
not get the required number, it will
become an auxiliary of some other
town. The articles being made here
would then be shipped to the chapter
town and then sent from there to
Washington, D. c., and Watertown
would not receive credit for what it
had DONE

a great game all the way and was

KEGS from getting away with run.

INDUSTRIAL EFFECT ON GERMANY
CAUSES UNEAS|NESS OF OFFICIALS

our stocks last much longer, although
eventually able to return to sound
basis"
After calling attention to the huge
increase in Americas financial
strength Dr. Beukenberg says in
answer to the third question:
Germany cannot become wholly IN.
dependent. In the case OF cotton, for
instance, under the most favorable con-
ditions it would take decades to meet
our needs from our colonies. To .
certain extent we can be Independent
if we live sparingly and use all our
available substitutes, but large part
OF German imports are raw materials
which are exported az manufactured
goods.
"Thus increases in the difficulties Of
importing would hit us badly. This
however, applies equally to the United
States. Americans do not grow cotton
for nothing and they will welcome
their old customer back again.
after all the submarine war spells
victory and if we are to dictate peace,
adequate guarantees may be negotiat.
ed Now that America Is an open
enemy, we no longer have our hands
tied and there Is no longer the fear
that we might have to make an un-
dignified peace through exhaustion.
The slogan is now victory or death
with US"
