Fargo Red Cross Has 400 Knitted
Articles For Its September Shipment

An encouraging report is made by
Mrs. p. w. Farnham, chairman of
the knitting committee of the Fargo
chapter of the Red Cross, on the
number OF articles turned in to the
headquarters in time for the Septem-
Der shipment abroad, 50 urgently re-
quested. A total of 496 knitted art
icles turned in during the last month
were made ready for shipment by
the committee Monday. Sincere APP
probation Of the earnest efforts
made by the many knitters Of Fargo
to complete all articles possible by
by members OF the knitting commit
tee.
The articles are divided as follows:
Wristlets, 1856 pairs; socks, 216 pairs,
especial cause for congratulation as
the need for them is greater than
any other knitted yarments); sweat
ers, %; scarfs. SO: helmets, 8; and
bed socks. 80 pairs.
The reason attributed for fewer
sweaters and scarfs being completed
is that they are slower work and
much more in quantity to the article.
A number of them are expected to be
turned in completed. very soon, how
ever. Helmets were not asked Of the
local chapter in the most recent re-
quest, but undoubtedly will be called
for in large numbers later.
Women and girls who have taken
up knitting for the Red Cross are al
most without exception finding 1t an
unusually fascinating occupation.
and their enthusiasm ~ constantly
enlisting the efforts of new work
ers. The Fargo committee is partl-
cularly proud of the showing for
September in view OF the fact that 1t
is much better proportionately than
that Of Chicago and some other cities
OF many times the population Of
Fargo.
Yarn Still Very Scarce.
There is still much difficulty in Sc
curing supplies Of yarn. the commit
tee being forced to buy in quanti-
ties of only few pounds each here
and there, wherever obtainable. This
shortage makes 1t doubly imperative
that all who have yarn out from
headquarters knit 1t up as soon as
possible.
Children wishing to secure yarn or
to learn to knit are requested from
this time on to call at the headquar-
tiers only on Saturday mornings,
when they can be given the proper
attention. With the scarcity exist
ing, yarn canot be given out pro-
miscously.
Quite a number Of hospital sup
plies were also made ready for ship
ment yesterday.

Rosemary Pfaf Child Prina Donna,
Wins Audience With Fine Program

Rosemary Pfaff, Of Indianapolis,
Ind. a child with excellent prima
donna training, delighted a small but
very appreciative audience at the
Orpheum Monday evening, being
presented under the management of
Prof. b. J. Sucher, of the Fargo Con-
servatory of music. Little Miss
Pfaff's program was heavy, contain
ing quite a number of difficult opera
arias interspersed with lighter num-
bers, and her interpretations were
given with an understanding re-
markable even for an adult. The
combination of this artistic finish
with her very natural, childlike man
ner was unusual and very pleasing.
The young artists voice is one OF
much sweetness and bell-like clear
ness, and she sings with an ease that
Is refreshing. She still uses the child
falsetto in high tones, which, musical
critics affirm, is the best redeeming
feature to save her voice for maturer
years. The effects of very careful
training were also apparent in her
excellent enunciation, and she SEEM
ed as much at home in the Italian
and French numbers as in the Eng
lish. The first group was one Of
Italian numbers, from Mozart's
Figaro, Verancini's Rosalinda, and
one of the 1710-1792 period, Para

when the hatters' union entered in
10 a written agreement with each Of
the defendants whereby il agreed
that lit would pay all of the ex-
penses of such defendants and save
each individual from liability"
Later the American Federation Of
Labor took over the defense and
pledged such financial support as
may be necessary in the pending
contention"
From that time on the federation
was in charge until a judgment
against the defendants was affirm

responsibility. Later the federation
took up a voluntary contribution
which is said 10 have yielded about

Loewe and Co. announced that If
the sum was paid over TO the de-

approaching a conclusive estimate

that the 10000. 00s estimate of the

A feature OF the few complete
returns is the high percentage of
indicated exemptions, averaging ap-
prOximately so percent OF the total
registration. Officials pointed out
however, that this did not mean
actual exemptions as the indicated
figures include ali married men, and
those in executive, judicial or legis-
latve Office. Until exemption regis
trations have been promulgated, it
will be impossib bic TO say how many
OF these viii be included in those TO

Millions Claim No Exemption.
The one conclusive result OF the
registration that cannot be altered
in the slightest degree by any pos
sible variation from the estimates is
that millions OF young Americans
have put their names, claiming no
exemption and stating no reason for
release from war service.
