RED CROSS WORK.

The Mineral Point branch of the Rec
Cross wishes to thank those who have
so generously contributed both toward
the finances and toward the Red Cross
work. Various organizations of the
/ town have given valuable assistance:
Woman's Relief Corps So, G. A. r.
Post $40. Ladies Sodality of the Ger
man church $40, Co-Workers of the
Congregational church $40. Dorcas So
ciety of the NJ f. church $40. The
Trinity church has given the use of its
parish house for work,
The response has been wonderful but
the need is great. The national society
at Washington has sent an urgent APP
peal for branch organizations since it is
evident that our troops are to be sent
to France All men are asking, "What
can we do ?" Those Of you who can,
contribute financially the first of each
month, sending your contributions to
the treasurer, Miss Bradford If a fair
sized monthly subscription could be
guaranteed, the work could go forward
without hesitation since the amount of
material that could be bought would be
estimated and purchased in quantities
large enough to make wholesale reduct-
ions possible
Women who can work come to the
Parish House Wednesday and Saturday
afternoons. You are not expected to
give money each time you come; your
help is needed Those who can knit at
home, go to the Parish House to see
what is needed. Those who have old
linen will be surprised to find in how
many ways it can be used.
1t has always happened that when the
needs OF war arise, the means of meet
ing them are not available and vast
amount of suffering could have been
prevented. The women of America are
now preparing so well that history will
not repeat itself.
Platteville boasts two hundred women
members the first week of organization
in that place. OF course our town is
smaller but we have little more than
half that number of both men and wom-
en- for our first months organization.
The unpreparedness of our country
has been well advertised. Let us do
our Bit to fill this gap at least The
Red Cross has sent vast supplies TO our
allies, now we must have them for our
selves. 1t is the sum of small contri-
buttons in money and in work that de-
termines the large results and so a very
little helps. Win we must. &.*
