 Why every one doesn't put their shoulder to the wheel and work under difficulties that would have daunted Job, is a mystery. There are some, both men and women, in the Warren district who are giving every moment Of their time, not their spare, time,
 but neglecting other things to put forth every effort 10 work at anything that they may be asked 10 do. It is a business the same as running a shop or regulating an office. A great de gree of accuracy must be reached.
 The smallest detail must be thought of, the least money used to the best advantage, the forming of committees, dOling out material, raising funds, are a few of the items that must be con- sidered by the executive committee. When these men and women are will ing and glad to give their time and wide experience towards the promOt- ing of this worthy work, is it very much to ask that all of the women of the Warren district give a day each week to keep the "home fires burn ing?" With never a complaint if con ditiOns are not all they should be in the work rooms, and with a sacrifice each day if demanded.
 The funk drive" was successful as far as it went. Only about one-fifth of worked hard but that isn't enough; 15O good reliable boys who can be de- pended upon are needed.
