 The swing that carried the Red Cross drive contributions to surpris- ingly high figures for this district during Monday and Tuesday did not lose it's momentum during Wednes- day and the upward climb toward the apportionmeet of $500 was so rapid as to cause elation in the ranks of the Red Cross workers.
 Officially the totals up to 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon were given out as just under $7,000, so the district s apportionment should be passed to- day, if that accomplishment has not already been achieved.
 All the subscriptions that come in from now on will be proof upon proof that no soldier boy will die wounded in No Mans Land or in the trenches because Putnam people did not dc their bit toward rolling up the tre- mendous sum of $100,000,000.
 Hundreds in the Putnam district had not been reached by solicitors uI to Wednesday night and to these un- solicited persons the appeal is being made to match with their money the generous contributions of the districts people who have already had the op- portunity to place their names on the honor roll.

BRITISH SUBJECTS SCORED
Recruiting Officers Have No Use For Men Now Hiding at Home in Safety.

British recruiting officers who were working in this section Wednesday were merciless in their condemnation of British subjects who are staying at their peaceful occupations in this country while their brothers in arms are fighting to the death to stop the Hun invaders on the western front. One of these men, as he uses words considers stacker too mild a term for a man who hides in gainful occupa- ton here while the sons of the Brit ish empire from every corner of the world are gathered in France fighting for freedom.
 "A British subject who is at work in one of your factories, filling, per haps. the place left vacant by one of your own boys who is now fighting In France would be served none too well if his right hand were cut off when he reached it out for his pay envelope at the end of the week." this ofiicer was quoted as saying.

 There was no rush of British sub jects here to enlist. however. and there never will be until draft act is ap-
