In order that all the citizens Of the

vice are supplying to the Shenandoah
County boys. we are asking that you
make your contributions either in
money or articles to outfit the bags
to Mrs. John Heller or Mrs. Fl. O.

The Shenandoah League Is endeav-
oring to supply every boy that leaves
the county and 80 far they have been
able to do so but the cost is heavy
and Is the work is entirely voluntary,
no fees being charged. they are COM
PEELED to ask for assistance. More
than one hundred dollars was spent
on the bags for the boys who left last
week and the Chapter Is anxious to
see that every Shenandoah county
boy is -supp2ied. The Strssburg
Chapter of the National League are
supplying all boys from their town
and the lower end OF the county and

Water Report.

Instead of four feet, two inches OF
water in the reservoir, there is now
but 81 inches. 1t Is evident that q
considerably larger amount OF water
has been used than heretofore. A
rigid investigation should be made at
once and the waste or unlawful use
should be prevented.
Economy should be exercised
wherever yater is used. Manufac-
turing establishments of all kinds
should endeavor to use as little as
possible, for it is better to have a
limited supply than to have none.
Church organs use considerable
amount, and water power is not necss.
sary to serve the Lord.
Families should save wherever
possible, for If each family would
save few gallons each day; the sup.
ply in the reservoir would be greatly
increased. Besides all other con.
siderations, we are dependent upon
the water supply for protection
against fire. Don't leave the spigots
open.
