Get Little From Public.
On the basis OF the work that it
has done, the association has receiv-
ed but little from the public since its
organization in Fargo.
Contributions have averaged less
than $500 a year.
At the same time. however, the as
sociation has sought larger quarters
to meet the demands made upon it,
and has expanded its routine until
in the past year
Thirty-six hundred women and
girls were provided with rooms and
lodging.
Forty-seven thousand women and
girls were served meals at an aver
age cost of 16 cents.
Hundreds of women and girls were
given employment, and hundreds
more were induced to attend health
giving gymnasium classes.
These are only few of the func-
tions of the association.
The roolaing and boarding depart
ments pay their own freight, but
the rent OF quarters, salaries Of the
smallN staff of employed officers and
the expense of the conduct Of other
departments, which have not been
fully met, leave a staring deficit, not
overly large, but none the less trou-
blesome.

A most unexpected situation today
faced those in charge Of the Fargo
campaign for the sale OF Red Cross
Christmas seals, when the additional
consignment OF seals, expected this
morning at the latest. failed TO ar
rive. After sending several tele-
grams yesterday and last night and
receiving no answer, il was learned
that Mrs. Quain. Bismarck, who has
the distribution OF the seals in this
state. was in the south with her
husband, DR.. Z. p. Quain. now an
army surgeon. and that whoever she
had left in charge of the matter had
evidently been remiss in sending the
Fargo consignment.
Seals which had been distributed
to various merchants were collected
this morning. by Mrs. O'Neili, local
chairman, that there might be some
for the Fargo high school Girls
Booster club to sell at the Orpheum
this afternoon. These girls were SO
eager to help that they sold all OF the
800 worth already given them, on
Friday evening. not waiting for the
canvass OF the residence districts
planned for today. Mrs. O'Neil, re-
marking this morning that 1t was
pretty cold today for the canvass IL
plans nau carried. received the reply
from one Fargo high school girl that
she had seven cousins in the war
and guessed I'VE ought to be able to
sell seals IL IL is cold"
The Horace Mann pupils, who
were to have sold seals at the other
local theaters and the postotfice to-
day, are equally optimistic, and have
promised even greater cooperation
when the seals do arrive. POST
master Wilkinson had not waited TO
be asked for the privilege of selling
them at the postoffice, but had writ
ten for permission from Washing
ton, and had a table and chairs all
ready for the campaigners.
The st. Johns and St. Luke's
nurses have also disposed OF nearly
all of the $100 worth of seals given
them yesterday, and the completion
OF their quota OF the work is likewise
postponed.
Judge Pollock OF Casselton, who
has charge of the Cass county sale
of seals, wanted 800 worth for the
town of Davenport, N. D., and had
to be- notified OF the delay. 1t is
hoped to have the additional seals
by Monday, at least.

Relief Trains Stalled.

Truro, N. S.. Dec. s.-Additional
outside relief for the suffering thous-
ands in Halifax was dependent today
upon the weather. The great snow
storm dominated the situation.
Almost every hour brought word
OF a relief train stalled by the huge
drifts piled up by the gale all along
the railroad lines between Moncton,
N. B., and Halifax. One train. with
doctors and nurses from the United
States on board, was caught at Men,

From staff correspondent Of The
Associated Press with the British
armies in France, via London, June /.
comparative quiet continues
to reign along most of the western
front, the war IL far from standing
still. That great machine behind the
fighting forces continues to move with
never resting energy.
Artillery duels break out by day and
night along the various sectors of the
long battle line and there passes now
unnoticed an expenditure of shells
which two years ago would have been
regarded as little short of marvellous.
But the game of modern warfare IL
ever a progressive one and the miracle
of today becomes the. commonplace Of
tomorrow.
The infantry activity lately has been
confined wholly to raids and minor at
tacks. These are conducted mainly
for the purpose OF keeping in touch
with the enemy's movements and in
tentions. Both the British and Ger
mans have adopted these tactics and

The Germans appear daily to grow
more nervous and worried by the pres
ent lull. They are watching the Brit
ish with cat-like aIertness. The slight
est alarm during the night sets their
guns going and many barrage cur
tains have been projected uselessly in
front of the British positions. Some
or their airplanes also are taking des-
perate chances in flying low over the
lines. endeavoring to keep in touch
with any important movement. The
German government continues to fill
the air with wireless propaganda
against the British, virtually ignoring
all the other allies, including the
United States. The trench version in

that no British prisoners had been TAX
