Red Cross Notes.

There was a meeting at Roselle
last Thursday evening for the discus
sion OF Red Gross work and Thrift
Stamps.
The meeting was we'll attended.
Mr.. Damron OF Fredericktown acted
as chairman and presented the Red
Cross work in foreign lands in a clear
and forcetul manner, emphasizing the
need for funds to carry it on. A com.
mittee of five was selected to conduct
the great drive for one hundred mil
lion dollars in the coming May. Mr..
Rankin was named as chairman and
Miss Myrtle Massie. an secretary.
Mr.. Reese Of Ironton spoke on
Food Conservation and the work of
the Red Cross at home, showing why
both these lines OF work r SO neces-
sary to success in the war.
At the close of the meeting nine
new members joined the Iron County
Chapter and an equal number were
enrolled for the Madison County
Chapter.
1t appears that no suitable place can
be had at Roselle for a Red Gross
work room, but it is hoped that this
problem can be solved and the ladies
there join with all their American
sisters in this much needed work.
Mr.. Davis, of Fredericktown, dis.
cussed War Saving Stamps Mt length
He explained the necessity for them
and the advantage Of them from diff
ferent angles. At the close OF his talk
subscriptions were taken. That IL,
all were invited to pledge themselves
to purchase during the coming year,
Us many az they felt able.
Some s24O0 were pledged, OF which
$3.50 was credited to Iron county, and
Sl9l0 to Madison.
Altogether the meeting was o de-
cided success and 1t Is hoped that
others can be arranged In the near
future.
Red Cross meeting, Monday oven.

The spirit of trade is sweeping over
the valley. Property is changing
hands so often we can hardly keep
tab of it. However, we do not think
any who have sold contemplate NOV

farmers and stock dealers, we can't
think there are many localities in the
state better adapted to those things
than our healthtul little valley.
