THE RED CROSS
FINANCE PLANS

A meeting of the finance committee
of the Waterville Red Cross was held
at the office of Mayor Meader in City
hall Thursday afternoon and plans
were started for the raising of a fund
for the work of the Red Cross. 1t was
decided that for such a great under
taking it should not be necessary to
go about and solicit funds and that
the people should be ready to do their
share without someone having to go
to them and request it. Arrangements
have been made for receiving the
funds and the finance committee wish
to impress 1t upon the people Of Wat
erville that money is needed at once
now, Immediately, and that the person
who gives now, does much more good
than the one who gives later. The
following places will receive the mon
ey and all persons contributing will
have their names in the papers each
morning starting with Saturday or
Monday morning, but in no case will
the amount of individual subscriptions
be announced: The Ticonic Nation
al. Waterville Savings Bank, Peoples
National Bank, Kennebec Trust Co.
Boothby and Bartlett Insurance Of
flee, Waterville Sentinel office, and
Waterville office of the Kennebec
Journal. 1t is up to everyone to come
through now and do their share and
do it cheerfully.

scrapes about as tight as they posi-
bly, could be and came out of them
both simply by doing the right thing
at the right time. I'll stake him
against any of them. The other night
was very rough. There was a strong
off shore wind with the tide kept us
in the trough of the sea half of the
night. That was where We all found
our sea legs, even though they were
somewhat slow in coming. We are
within 200 yards Of the nets and have
to report every outgoing and incom-
ing vessel. Every outgoing vessel is
hailed and its number taken and en-
tered on the log. Incoming boats are
told to report to the flagship of the
feet, just inside of US. The Italian
fleet of fishermen keep us on the jump
taking their numbers when we are on
watch for them, for there must be
couple of hundred. This morning
it started to rain during my watch
from 2 to 6, SO 1t was quite job to
make out every vessel. One of the
fishermen gave us some cod and fioun
ders SO we had q mighty fine break
fast. These fishermen are mighty
pleasant fellows, and always seem to
be happy and working. They keep US
supplied with fish, the best l have ever
eaten. We go in for an hour now and
then for provisions. 1t is interesting
work even though there are some un-
comfortable features caused by small
boat, but we all prefer this to larger
one" He also sends his regards to the
boys in college and to Rev. Mr.. Sted-
man of the Episcopal church.
