RED CROSS WORK
Grant County Chapter Enthusiastical.
" Turning Out Large Amount
Of Work

A visit to The red cross rooms in
the court house any of these early
winter afternoons would prove b
pleasing surprise for many of our
people who have not kept in close
touch with the red cross work being
done by the women of the county.
The chapter has a fine set Of rooms
on the third floor of the court. house
with view of Main street, and
busy workers of the Milbank chap
ter may be found there every after
noon, knitting, sewing and prepar-
ing and packing for shipment the
goods for the soldier boys and for
the helpless refugees of France and
Belgium. Besides a large consign-
ment of knitted socks the chapter
last month shipped $50 sweaters,
and at present it has 100 on hand,
and has also $50 pairs Of socks
ready for shipment this week with
a large quantity of refugee gar
ments, petticoats, pinafores and
dresses-the chapter here having
the ten year old size for its allot-
ment of this class Of work.
The chapter has also been busy
on pajama suits and bed jackets for
hospital use, and has about COM
pleted on direct order from the
government some 300 army shirts
for the soldiers.
1t is amazing the amount of work
that is being done by the faithful
women of the various auxiliaries,
continual stream of goods being
.sent up to the county chapter, where
it is carefully examined, properly
labeled and tagged and placed in
assorted sizes, boxed and forwarded
to the red cross headquarters.
Mrs. 7. L. Bouck, who has sup
erintendency Of the work Of the
chapter, says that too much praise
cannot be accorded the various aux
ilaries Of the county chapter for
their faithfulness and for the care
full manner in which they prepare
and send in their work. and she
says that it is to this that the great
success of the chapter is due, as
we'll as to the faithful constan.
work of her associates in the Mil
bank chapter.

John Eckland. one Of Roberts

purchased two quarter sections Of
land in the vicinity Of his farm
which he wishes to use for hay and

Arthur MADEIRA.

The first Of the week Mr.. John
MADEIRA received word from the
war department that it was his
son Arthur that died from
wounds, as announced in the
casualty list last week. The
placing Of the name as from Ida
no was q clerical error, and the
state should have been given as
South Dakota. Owing to the
error there was some hope held
out that the fatality was not the
young man from this place, but
this hope was swept away by the
confirmation from Washington
where inquiry had been insCitut-
ed. It is another sacrifice on
the altar Of American liberty
another curse on the unholy am
bitions Of Germany's rulers.

there and cared for them until 4
nurse from Miles City arrived
there and took charge of the inva-
lids. Mrs. Cross arrived home
Sunday and stated that when che

when she was taken down with the
influenza, and Mr.. Chapman also
was taken i'll. A nurse from
Miles City had been sent out to care
for them. but complications devel-

to the stricken husband and parents
In this sorrow that has come upon
