Last Friday evening at Woodman
Hall, a meeting was conducted for the
purpose of organizing local Red Cross
society. Rev. E. w. Grifiths was
elected as temporary chairman and Mrs.
Dan w. Harris as temporary secretary.
Judge Lorin Cray of Mankato was the
first speaker. He explained how Red
Cross organization should be conducted
in Cambria. He was followed by DR.. j.
w. Andrews of Mankato who explained
the work of the Red Cross, stating that
it was divided into three zones, The
first zone was on the battlefield where
the wounded were temporarily cared for
until they could reach the hospitals, the
second zone was in the hospitals, and the
Third zone was the Red Cross organiza-
ton in our country. His discourse was
followed by Mrs. Fletcher of Mankato
who explained the work of the ladies as
was done in Mankato and as she sug-
gested the ladies of Cambria should do.
Mrs. Lorin Cray then exhibited samples
of what sewing work was required, in
Guiding bandages, cloth binders etc.
The Cambria Band played several
patriotic selections. A Cambria Red
Cross society was organized with twenty
five charter members and it is expected
that this number will greatly increase
very soon. Both men and women joined.
The permanent officers were elected as
follows: Rev. E. w. Grifiths, Pres. Z;
Miss Mary J. Bowen, Vice Pres; Mrs.
Dan w. Harris, Sec., and Mrs. Evan l..
Harris, Treas. The ladies here are con-
WINGED that the sewing will be very
particular work and they will probably
have some experienced lady come and
instruct them for the first few meetings.
The new members were told that only
a practicing physician and surgeon could
instruct in some branches of the work.
Crops in this locality are looking fine.
Some are afraid the hot days will rush
the small grain too much. Potatoes and
corn thrive in the heat.

Jim has been communing with the stars of late, and they tell him that, while it froze last night, by tomorrow night at the latest it will be raining and that the Cinema river will then rise to such an extent that it will mean the reopening of navi- gation on the river for big boats and barges.
