BENEFIT PLAY BY.
BARNEY TALENT

The Barney Home Talent play
ers appeared here Tuesday even
ing in Molly's Aunt, which was
played for the benefit Of the Bar
ney and Walcott branches of the
Red Cross society. The parts
were we'll handled by the players
and while the play is not an excep-
tionally strong one, it presents
many features of interest which
We're we'll brought out by the play
ers.
The specialties between the acts,
by the Barney school children,
were very good and showed mark
ed degree of training.
Contrary to usual form, the at
tendance was very small for an.
entertainment given in behalf of
such worthy cause, and the pro-
ceeds were given to the Barney
Branch, Mr.. Hendrickson donat--
ing the use of the Opera House
ana the Reporter dOnatlng the pos
tiers, postage, etc. 1t was thought
this arrangement no more than
fair, since the Barney people were
naturally called upon to go to
considerable expense and trouble.
and an equal amount of money
will do our boys the same amount
of good if spent through the Bar
ney branch as through the Wal
colt branch. The efforts of the
players were for a worthy cause
and the attendances hould have
been large instead of small. A
dollar spent for the Red Cross per-
forms noble mission and should
not be squeezed before the parting.

To all chapters -
In recent number of the lit
erary Digest was reprinted an az
ticle written by Samel S. Dale and
entitled "Why Not to Knit" The
writer states that in his opinion
hand knit socks are made of yarn
that is soft and fluffy and lacking
in durability" and that machine
knit socks made of lower priced
mixture of cheaper wool. cotton
and shoddy are "i,nmeasurably
SUPERIOR
Such a statement hardly de-
serve an answer, but we are find
ing that the fact that it was re-
printed in a periodical of the
standing of the Digest has given it
a weight that it does not deserve,
and that the minds of some of our
good workers are being disturbed
by it.
The facts Of the case are these
In every cantonment in this coun-
try, and with every army division
abroad, are representatives of the
Red Cross whose duty it is to study
the needs of the men in the army.
In Paris is the French commits
sion, headed by James H. Perkins,
and having on it's staff some Of the
keenest of our American business
men. These men are in constant
communication with General
Pershing and the higher army Of
ficers. The report to the Red Gross
War Council in Washington, com.
posed of such men as Henry P.
Dawson. George B. Case, John d.
Ryan, Harvey ID. Gibson and
Cornelius n. Bliss, Jr., and with
the War Industries Board, these
men determine the policy of the
Red Cross and what it's productive
activities are to be.
When they make statement Of
need. it is based on careful inves-
tigation. both of the need and of
the available supply of raw mat
erial. They have recently asked
American women to knit for the
army and navy 100000 pairs of
socks. 100000 sweaters and 9TH
er knitted articles in proportion.
They know what they aer talking
about when they make this re.
quest. There can be no question
that the higher officials, responsi.
BILE for the care of the American
army, want the Red Cross to knit
the socks, and to knit them at
once. and if the women of the Red
Cross allow the irresponsible ut
terances of any individual to influ-
ence them to cease their knitting,
some of our soldiers will be un-
provided with sufficient socks
when the winter comes on.
Yours very truly
F. F. Heffelfnger.

notwithstanding the fact that wood
pulp was the heaviest commodity
shipped out OF the Skowhegan freight
station last month, there is little de-
mand for that. product at the present
time because of the scarcity of coal,
which while it does not affect the
grinding Of pulp does affect the paper
making situation. Because Of this con-
dition there is n prospect that portion
at least of the local wood pulp concerns
will lie closed.
