LIARS INJURING RED CROSS.

There arr a number of lying popagandsts in this locality Who are dis
credting the work Of he American Red Cross, Inspector Bragdont
These stories are so infinite in their variety that the matter has become
serious, and while presenting a multitude of variations they follow certain
well defined lines One relates that a sweater sent Ito soldier through the
Red Cross was later seen being worm by a nurse, a Red Cross empoye. or
some civilian who claimed 10 have bought the garment from the society. An
other is o the effect that a woman who knitted a sweater for her son at Camp
Grant, finding no other way Of sending the garment inused it q the Red
Cross II, be ent FOR her. and a short time aferward received 4 letter from
her son that he vas obliged to pay the Red Cross for the sweater. Very often
the tale Is adorned BY a five dollar bill ! a ten dollar bill sewn into the
sweater.
Many Of the stories carry On their face their own reutation. but some
are so cunnfney embenshed with details as to trap the unvary into a belief
in their truth. 1t must. therefore be stated and reiterated that the Red Cross
