RED CROSS NOTES

The Red Cross headquarters have
re-opened again following the Thanks
giving holidays.
The Tuesday morning class in
standard surgical dressings met this
morning for instruction as usual. and
was largely attended.
On Friday morning the other class
meets as usual. The class did not
meet last Friday because of the
Thanksgiving recess.
Knitted goods and hospital supplies
are coming in regularly to the head
quarters from the various branches
of the Marathon Chapter throughout
the county.
From time to time untrue stories
are af1oat concerning the Red Cross
work. How and where such stories
originate is impossible to say, never
theless, it is hoped that none of our
people in Wausau or Marathon county
pay any attention whatever to them.
Keep up the good work of making
sweaters, scarfs, wristlets, helmets,
socks, ETC., also hospital supplies,
which is all for the cause of humanity.

PULLED THEIR COLLARS OFF
If Paris Women Wore Too Large a
Neck Piece Other Women Forcibly
Removed Them.

In Paris, at one time, the people
dropped their extravaganza, and III
a woman ventured TO wear too large
q collar, the other women would pull
it off," Henry Villas he did with
everything he set his mind tO-inter-
fered with the dress of his subjects to
some purpose and brought forward an
act against wearing costly apparel.
A few years later the law became
more stringent still. Philip and Mary
compelled attention not only by fines,
but went so far as to send Offenders TO
prison. Elizabeth saw that the peo-
pie were reckless with their money,
and caused an act TO be passed when
declared that anyone who sold foreign
apparel TO persons having less than
$1,000 a year in land o. fees, except
for ready money, should forfeit every
penny of the price.
Ladies wore hoods, hats and caps OF
every conceivable shape They were
careful as TO their hair, and they had a
fine assortment of wigs at hand. Eliz-
abeth herself sometimes wore red hair,
and then reverted to black for
change. 1t SO happened that trade In
the cap line fell OF considerably be
cause cans went ont Of fashion.

Under the new draft rules and reg
uIations effective Dec Is, men con-
victed of failing to register on last
June 5 will be dealt with more harsh
ly than under the old system. Pro-
yost Gen. Crowder announced on Sat
urday that such men, instead of be-
ing given jail sentences as has been
done in many cases heretofore, will
be so listed by local boards as to in
sure their call with the first mere
ment summoned after the new rules
are put in force.
Local boards are directed not to
send the registration cards of the con-
victed men to the state adjutant gen
eral for serial number assignment, but
to place them at the. top OF the first
class liable for call. Thus the men,
it was pointed out, will forfeit all
chances of the master list rotation,
except in cases where physical condl-
ton or the terms of the law require
exemption or deferred classification.
Men now under suspended sentence
for failing to register also will be list
ed at the top of the first class, it was
understood

Despicable

Last evening a report was cur
rent on the streets OF Merrill that
transport with two Merrill men on
board had been sunk at sea and all
on board lost. This report was
brought before Merrill Soldiers Par
ents' association at the city hall last
evening by parent of one of our
soldier boys with the inquiry: Where
did this report start? Who started
the story?
Listen to this; the State Council
of Defense published the following
yesterday:
One of the most despicable Of the
pro-German annoyances that has yet
come to the notice of the State Coun-
Gil of Defense was recently reported
from Fond du Lac. Some person or
persons representing themselves to be
members of the staff of one of the
local newspapers sent a series of tele-
phone messages throughout the city
and rural districts to the effect that
a transport on which Fond du Lac
men were being conveyed to Europe
had been sunk.
The newspaper thus unjustly i'm
plicated promptly offered a reward for
information that would lead to the
arrest and conviction of the offenders
The State Council of Defense stands
ready and willing, with the powers
| delegated to it in Chapter 80 of the
laws of 1917, to back such prosecu-
ton to the fullest extent of the law
Why do these reports appear stimuli
taneously in different parts of the
state? What is the purpose other
than to impede or retard movements
| of troops? Has Merrill any pro-en-
envy agitators who are doing this
work? This is remarkable co-ince
| dence at least, in view of the fact thai
| there is no foundation for any such re
| port.
Loyal effort requires that the per
son starting reports of this kind bt
apprehended as promptly as possible

As By Your Mother!

And for your country, boy, and for
that Flag, never dream but OF
serving her as she bids you, even
though the service carry you through
a thousand bells. No matter what
happened to you, no matter who fiat
tiers you or who abuses you, never
look at another flag, never let night
pass but you pray God to bless that
Flag. Remember, boy, that behind

even, there is the Country Herself;
Your Country, and that you belong
to Her as you belong to your own
mother. Stand by Her, boy, as you
would stand by your mother.-Edwart
