the world was this accom- plished? Why
by tagging. by tagging and by sales
manshipl Everyb body tagged with a
Red Cross rosetle paid q forfeit cheer
fully. Two membere stretched a big
strip Of red, white and blue bunting
across q street where all automobiles
had to pass, while a third member eK-
scted the liberal tolls bestowed. This
was a great hit. In the sale OF ice
cream and other delicacies, the Red
Cross bees were also busy gathering
honey. Large cakes sold as high as Sf.5O
each; and 75c was q common price for
delicious Anglesea pies. The money
realized was badly needed to purchase
yarns, goods, and other material for
making articles to send to the soldier
boys In France. If there ever was q
Holy cause, 1t is the Red Cross work.
