JUNIOR RED CROSS

The demand placed on the Junior
Red Cross for property bags has like
all other requests been promptly met
by the Van Buren, Schools. These
are individual bags made for the
soldiers and are of good quality Gre
tonne. When attached to a soldiers
bed or bunk they are very handy in
holding various articles and belong
ings which without this little conven-
fence or camp comfort, might be
strewn around or eventually mislaid
or lost. The county furnished 226
bags. The order was all placed on
the Juniors, but, because of the cpl
demic and the closing of schools, the
Senior Red Cross workers helped fill
the quota. Several schools are en-
titled to credit for this work and es-
pecial mention must be made of the
fine showing of Mrs. Esther Warner
and the Lawrence schools. This town
ship with Mrs. Warner as it's efficient
chairman, furnished one hundred bags
From the beginning of the war, Law
renee has been foremost in furnishing
men, money and community morale.
Likewise their Juniors are active and
well organized.
Mrs. Nora Culver who has just
nicely started the work of organizing
Arlington, furnished double the quota
she originally pledged.
The Spanish Influenza is about
and most schools are closed, teachers
and pupils in other districts are sick,
but up to date the remaining schools
have met all emergency calls in fine
shape.
Pupils should watch the first of
these notes in November. Then the
County papers will tell you what is
outlined for that month. Don't spend
your time bothering your mind what
ever it is, great or small, it will be
done. The teachers creed u.s., "My
school will do it," The pupils creed
is, 81 am going to help do it."
The plan of letter by schools to
soldier and sailor boys from their
community planned for November
has been done away with as the
government felt that at this time
with increased mail and packages the
congestion must be removed rather
than increased.
Commissioner Root will mail you

furnish work for all grades for the

The question is frequently asked,
How much does it cost the Govern
ment per day to feed its soldiers ?"
An official report of the Treasury de-
partment announces that it costs
about forty-fve cents per day.
Officers pay for their meals and it
costs them approximately $1.OO per
day. The only practical difference
between the officers and privates

linen, china and service. Another
question of interest is, as the Bread

On this point, the Treasury depart
ment says: -"Our men in service
here have used a greater amount of
substitutes than the Food Admins
tration has asked of the Civilian
