One OF the most important depart
ments in the Red Cross work is that
which takes care of the cutting OF
garments, bandages and surgical
dressings, as careful cutting is
necessarily the foundation of all good
work along those lines. The cutting
department OF the Fargo branch has
attained a high degree Of efficiency,
and saves the expenditure Of con-
siderable sums of money. Many
cities maintaining Red Cross branch
es hire all their cutting done, which
proves an expensive procedure.
At a meeting of the supervisors of
the Fargo branch cutting depart
ment, held Saturday afternoon at the
headquarters, an encouraging talk on
Efficiency In Cutting and Present
Needs OF the Local Department was
given by Mrs. F. II. Bailey. who is
now chairman OF the department.
The talk included a detailed review
Of the departments routine work,
emphasizing particularly that it is
impossible TO make a perfect gar
ment or article without proper cut
ting. Both the talk and the general
discussion following, in which all the
supervisors took part, proved most
helpful.
Local Cutting Supervisors.
There are no more faithful work
ers in the Fargo branch than the
cutting supervisors. their chairman
and those who assist them at vari-
Gus times. The corps Of volunteer
cutters reporting at the rooms aver
ages from six to eight each day. The

on which they have charge Of this

while il may be the opinion of any
one of the board of directors that
the increase is necessary or justifia-
BILE. still no action has been taken at
any meeting of the board.
II was said in the rumor which
quoted a director as prophesying an
increase, that the only alternative to
raising the fares to seven cents
would be to eliminate service on the
Linglestown. Oberlin, Rockville and
other suburban lines. Company Off
cials have contended for some time
that these lines at times are operated
at a loss. but nothing has been done
that looks toward their elimination.

gineer on June 10, 1912, and was
promoted to division transm ission
