BEMIDJI RED CROSS
PACKS SUPPLIESF0R
SOLDIERS IN FRANCE

The Red Cross work room has been
the scene of unusual activity the last
two days, because arrangements are
being made to send the first con-
signment of finished garments in to
headquarters at Minneapolis. Mr..
and Mrs. A. A. Warfield are taking
charge of the packing and shipping
which entails no small amount of
manual labor. c. E. Battles kindly
donated suitable boxes. These are
carefully lined with heavy wrapping
paper before they are packed. The
garments are sorted and tied in pack
ages of one dozen or half dozen lots,
according to specified directions.
The knitted work is measured and
the size marked upon each piece.
Visitors to the room yesterday and
today we're surprised to see the
amount of work ready to be for
warded in so short time. One of
the long tables in the center of the
room was piled high with bundles Of
pajamas, bed shirts, convalescent
robes, bed socks, nightingale's and
surgeons robes, as we'll as the knit
ted work comprised of sweaters,
wristlets, helmets, scarfs and socks.
The shipping of this box will leave
our shelves pretty we'll cleared up
and ready for a new installment of
work.
In answer to an appeal made some
time ago, special effort will be made
in the next few weeks to complete as
much as possible of the knitted work.
Sewing will not by any means be dis
continued but workers who both sew
and knit are asked to devote them
selves so far as possible to getting
out as much knitting as they can.
Mrs. Lord and Mrs. Conger have
charge of this part of the work and
are ready at all times to assist with
their advice and instruction. The OBJ
ject is to have the warm garments
where they are needed when the cold
weather comes and it takes some time
for them to reach their destination.

ARMY-NAvY FOOTBALL GAME
Little Chance That Big Grid Contest
viii Be Played This Year-See-
retary Bakers View.

There is little chance that the Army
Navy football game will be played this
year. Newton d. Baker, secretary Of
war. declared that he was opposed to
having the contest played. even for the
purpose of raising a war fund.
Mr.. Baker explained that the Army
Navy game had been discussed by him
with Secretary Daniels and Col. Pal
mer Pierce, U. s. A. head Of the Ma
tonal Collegiate Athletic association.
The decision reached was that so far
as West Point and Annapolis were con-
cerned, every ounce OF energy ought
to be employed toward the prOsecu-
ton Of the war, even ut the temporary
sacrifice Of athletics.
At West Point Secretary Baker ex-
planned a system of very intensive mil
itary training has been initiated. while
arrangements are being rushed to grad
uate two classes ahead.
Mr.. Baker also pointed out that the
feeling between West Point and An
napolis was naturally such that play
ing of the football match would in
vOlve much training and preparation.
He does not think that this energy
should be devoted at this time even for
the advantage Of raising war fund.
