The financial condition of the local
branch of the American Red Cross is
again such that the Executive Com
mittee no longer feel any anxiety
The public needed only to be told OF
the straits they were in and relief
came pouring in from all directions.
On February 26th at the Padua
school, Miss Mathilda Book gave a
patriotic program and a basket social
for the benefit of the Red Cross and
turned in thirty-five dollars. A chick
en- was auctioned off at a good price
and two cakes were sold. -
The Gradatim club sent in check
for 1884 as contribution for the
purchase of muslin dressings.
On Friday evening, March 18th, the
members of the North Ashley Auxil-
larry who are doing excellent work for
the Red Cross, gave an entertainment
at their school and sent in a check
for $66.36. They have completed the
consignment of refugee garments and
are about to take up hospital gar
metns.
From now, on, the auxiliaries will
have to make the larger and more
difficult articles as the chairman of
the sewing committee is in receipt of
a notice from the Northern Division
saying that they require no more
towels, NWash-clothes, handkerchiefs or
napkins.
The secretary was asked to come to
Lake George to organize an auxiliary
there and spent Friday afternoon
helping the ladies of that vicinity get
started. Mrs. s. r. Thostenson was
elected chairman and Miss Clara
Thostenson, secretary. The refresh
ments wese furnished by Mrs. Peter
son and Mrs. Anderson of Belgrade.
Friday afternoon, March 22nd, Mrs.
S. Bjone will give coffee under the
auspices of the Norwegian Lutheran
church, at her home for the benefit
Of the local branch. It is hoped that
as many as possible will attend: The
gentlemen are also cordially invited
The sewing rooms are filled day
after day, by the same women who
have worked untiringly since relief
work was taken up. There are any
number of other women in town who
might give an afternoon a week to
this excellent cause and it is hoped
that more will come forward. AT
present they are working on pajama
coats and will have another large
shipment ready soon.
