MODERN DEVICES
PLAY BIG PART IN
RED CROSS WORK
Electrical Machines Enable At
IantiC Division to Turn Out
100000 Hospital Gar
mentS Each Week.

One hundred thousand garments are
being turned out each week by the At
antiC Division of the Red Cross as its
share in the nationwide allotment of
the hospital and refugee garments ask
ed for by the Government. This state
ment, authorized by Ethan Allen, Man
ager of the Division, was based upon
figures compiled at the Division Cut
ting Department which supplies cut
garments to seventy per cent of the
Chapters in the States of New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut.
Using the most up-to-date electrical
equipment, the Cutting Department is
able to cut the materials for hospital
shirts, pajamas, mems underwear,
boys and girls clothing, gowns and
children's plnafores at the rate of 70,-
600 yards every five and a half days.
This means not only the cutting but
the assembling of the parts, the pack
ing and the shipping of the garments
TO the Chapters, where they are sewed
and made ready for wear. 1t is esti-
mated that Chapters save from three
to seven cents on each of the garments
supplied through the Cutting Depart
ment.
The garments are cut on requisition
from Chapters. Orders are often filed
in one day and rarely later than two
days Bath robes, bed jackets, paia-
mas, bandaged-foot sock-these and
all other garments on the Red Cross
list are cut according to official pat
terms.
Machine Marks Patterns.
Ninety-foot tables and sixty-foot ia
bles are used in the operation of cut
ting the garments. The material is
spread out by '1ayingup" machines,
which unroll it from the bolt in LAYERS
extending the whole lengths of the ta-
bles The design is marked on the top
layer, either by hand or by the stencil
ling process of spreading black powder
over dots in a perforated pattern.
Sometimes an electrical machine is
used, which marks out the pattern on
the goods by burning tiny holes in 1t.
After the marking process cutting
machines with tcn-inch blades are OBJ
Grated around the pattern, The most

New Weapons Always Condemned.

New weapons have always reused
the ire of the old-fashioned soldier,
just as Germany's introduction Of
deadly weapons has in this war, says
the Boston Post. The Introduction of
bronze spearheads must have scandal
lied some old f1int-wielding warrior,
and King .Archimadus regarded the
use of the catapult as the grave of true
bravery.
Bayard considered that no true man
should use a firearm, and even Mar
shall SAKE did not altogether approve
of it, and thought the old-fashioned
style of man-to-man fighting superior.
But in the long run it is the man
that wins, not his weapon. Laurence
Oliphant, the great traveller, said that
in future wars the side would win
which showed the most determination
to get to grips with the enemy.

InFrench.

President Woodrow Wilson is to re-
ceive pretty compliment from
France. His history of the American
people, which in style, says the London
Observer, is somewhat between Free
man and John Richard Green, is to be
translated into French. It makes five
rather large volumes in the English
language, and it will fill as many in
French. There will be an Introduction
by NJ. Emile Boutroux, who is his
torian, philosopher and a member
Of the French academy.

Mr.. E. L. McMillan: If the court
please, there is but little that I could
say or would have the heart to say at
this time beyond what is expressed in
this brief memorial. 1t was my good
fortune to meet Judge Keith a year
or two before I moved to Princeton,
and our friendship was immediate and
continuous. Since moving here, and
for the past sixteen years, our friend
ship has been very intimate one in
deed, hardly a day passing without
some conference of some sort or other,
some friendly chat or greeting, or
counsel with regard to business affairs.
I thoroughly indorse everything that
is said in that memorial. I know from
my own knowledge, observation and
experience there is nothing over
drawn there, and I know he was not
one who would wish anything over
drawn or any fowery, eulogistic senti-
'ments expressed. He was of retiring
disposition, never in the lime light,
rather shrinking from it; but he was
always to be depended upon in every
movement for the advancement of the
community or Of county or state at
large, always contributing literally of
his time and means to all such objects.
In his practice have known him as
adversary, but much more frequently
as associate counsel, and I know
whereof speak when say that as an
adversary he was man to be respect
ed don't say feared, for no adj
versary needed to fear any undue
practice, anything in the nature of
undue surprise or anything of that
sort; but any adversary would know
that his points would not be over

mission, during which time came into
very intimate contact with Judge
Keith. And, as it has beensmost APP
propriately said, he was man whose
judgment was valuable in all matters.
He came to this town when it was
nothing more than a trading post, and
he has grown up with the country and
was proud Of the showing made by the
village in which he resided, and also
the progress of the other and more
distant parts of the county, taking a
special interest in years Of late in the
northern end of the county. He was
especially valuable to the practitioners
of the Mile Laos county bar on tax
matters, being familiar with, I might
say, every tax title which was issued
on land in this county; and I really be-
lieve that without very much reference
Judge Keith could tell in what condi-
ton the title was on most of the
pieces of land in this county, and he
has rendered valuable assistance to
the court in these matters as they
would come up for litigation. And not
only in this county, but in all of the
northern surrounding country, he was
known to the court as friend Of the
court, and to the people as friend Of
the people, and, as said, would always
represent things as they were no mat
ter where it hurt. heartily indorse,
