Cornstarch Is useful in making Gus

be used in baking corn bread. Rolled
oats are used largely as breakfast pors

He also reported five sudden deaths from
natural causes and one death from hom-

complaints of nuisances. The reason
there were no more cases of nfantile
paralysis was undoubtedly because of the
prompt cooperation of the city council

APPEAL TO SCHOOL CHILDREN
To Make Garments for Needy Who Flee
Before Invaders.

Appeals to the school children of the
United States to make garments foI
needy children, women and old men, who
fed from the invaded districts early in
the war are being made by the Red
Cross. Some OF these people are in
France, Others daily cross the Swiss Dor
der. A recent cablegram from Paris
states that an average of $50 children ar
rive daily from behind the German lines
at Evianle Balm and that Sin the first
week of the American dispensary over
2,400 children were examined, more than
900 being between the ages of three
and Is years The refugees are desti-
tute and ill. They must be given both
food and clothing before being sent on
to their "billets" in various towns and
villages. The French government which
is putting all its force into the fighting
line cannot care for these wrecks of war.
They depend for all the first needs of
life, for food shelter and clothing, upon
the American Red Cross
The Red Cross will continue to meet
these heavy responsibilities as long as
the people in America will stand behind
it with money and supplies. II is calling
upon its newest members, the girls and
boys in the school auxliaries, to clothe
these children and their parents. The
American children are assured that not
an atom of their work will be wasted.
Every garment turned in to the Red
Cross for this purpose adds TO some refu
gees fighting chance for life.
The Red Cross association says: keep
in constant touch with the nearest Red
Cross chapter to find out what articles
are most needed. Use only the warmest
and most durable materials you can OBJ
tain following directions in the Ameri-
can Red Cross pamphlets, Nos 6O2. 4g7,
i0s, 400. The appeal from these desti
tute French children, whose fathers are
fighting side by side in the trenches with
the fathers of American children, should
set going the little fingers on this side
OF the water.
English schools took up this work |
early in the war. sending in a few |
months 10000 bits" to Belgian and 1
Serbian children.
