WILL DISCUSS WAR CHEST.
New Britain Patriots Fund Is New
 Name Proposed.

The civic bureau directors of the New Britain Chamber of Commerce will hold a meeting tomorrow after noon at 4:30 o'clock. for the purpose of electing a chairman.
 Another important matter to be taken up at this time will be the much talked of war chest, which will in the future be spoken of as the New Britain Patriots Fund. In numerous cities and towns throughout the state this idea has been adopted with great success. One pleasing feature is that by creating a fund of this nature all war fund campaigns, with the excep- ton of Liberty loans will be done away with, as there is always SUD- posed to be sufficient money on hand to meet any demands made upon the city for war needs.
 In establishing a war fund, it is necessary for the residents of the city to subscribe a certain amount to be paid into the fund in weekly or monthly installments. By doing this payments will be made habitually, and all patriotic movements of a financial nature will be covered, with out further canVasSing.
 Community singing will also be a topic of discussion. It is the aim of the directors to encourage comm11n- ity singing and urge other organiza- tiOnS to assist
 A meeting of the executive com mittee of the Standardization board will also be held at this time, for the purpose of discussing the advisability of securing a paid director, the mat ter of the location of the bureau, and to provide ways and means of CarIy- ing on the work in New Britain.

poIlpletes Agreement to Engage ! New Britain Apparatus
JULY 4 PROGRAM COMPLETE
Best Sporting Schedule Town Has Ever Had to Be Produced at Fair Grounds-Questionnaires Going Out IThis Week.

k The agreement recently entered into E{by the selectmen of the town of Ber- 1Ilin and the fire commissioners of New
 Britain has been signed by both par ties, and Berlin is now fully protected 1 as far as will be possible until a fire department is established in this town. ThesagreeTa2at which was approved
 of and drawa'p at 8 town meeting a ] few months ago, is one agreeing to pay the New Britain fire department
 $50 for each call answered and $60 for Reaein additional hour after the call has been answered that the department is l in the service of Berlin, from the time the4department leaves it's headquarters in New Britain until it has reached it's l station.
 By an additional stipulation, the town of Berlin is to be liable each year
 the service of this town to the amount kof $10,000. This liability will not
 However, affect the finances of the
 town to any great extent, as already
 plans have been made for securing a
 bond at the Berlin Savings bank as a i sort of insurance. The town will pay the bank a small amount of interest annually on this insurance and the
 bank will assume the liability for the
 damages.
 For the present, the fire department
 will answer calls sent. in only by tho yselectmen of the town, and it IS planned at an early date to give citi- zens in various sections the privilege . of calling the department. It is planned soon to divide the town into
 districts for bearing the expense of the
 use of the apparatus. Two sections Twill be designated, the people living
 within these sections paying for the use of the departm ent only while it is
 doing service in their section of the i town The plan is believed to be m ot1
 fair.

RED CROSS KNITTERs

man local Red Cross. It is.
from Mrs, Pauline Perkins,
Superintendent Of Knitting,
Gulf Division, and as it is Of.
particular interest to kni#ters,
we gladly give it publicity:
My dear Mrs. Stewart:
! wish very much that this
might be a personal talk in
stead of a mere letter which,
at best cannot convey to va
and your Chapter the good
will we feel toward you, and
our appreciation Of your SPLEEN
did efforts in backing us up in
our work. NY message is
meant especially for the knit
tiers in you rChapter, but we
all want You to please remem-
Der that down here we are just
E%&JZ&AE 49,
plain American women like
yourselves, wanting to do our
bit, trying to do our best, and,
in our earnest efforts, ocea-
sionally making very human
mistakes.
The only thing that puts US
in a position to direct and
sometimes to criticize the
work of any Chapter in the
Gulf Division is the fact that.
we are responsible to Red
Cross Headquarters at Wash
ngton for the amount and
quality of the work we send
on, and / regret to say our
Division ranks pretty far down
on the list. And this isn't
because we aren't all doing
everything in our power to
get results. Your efforts are
costing you time and money,
two commodities of which
none of US have an ~over-sup-
ply just at present, and we
deeply appreciate every min
ute and every cent of all the
hours and all the dollars each
shipment represents.
Certain newspaper articles
have caused some confusion
in many chapters as to just
what the Red Cross desires in
knitted articles. The follow
ing information is authorized
by Washington:
Sweaters and socks are the
garments most in demand and
may be knitted of gray wool,
but it is suggested that only
the softest quality be used for
socks. Sweaters are to be only
81 or % inches long, socks to
be IL inches long in the foot
and Ii inches long in the leg
regardless of number Of
stitches the directions say to-
cast on. Special care is re-
quested in finishing the heels
and toes, avoiding all seams
and ridges. The plain heel is
better than the double, and
you are asked to wash and
iron the socks after they are
knitted.
W. have heard through our
Field Directors that many Of
the knitted articles furnished
to our men in the service are
seriously injured by improper
washing. It is suggested that
each Chapter have type writ
ten slips printed giving direc-
tions for washing, and haste
these in each garment. The
following form is suggested
Wash in warm water with
plenty of soap; put small
amount of soap in water and
rinse-change of temperature
in water causes shrinkage
hang garment up lengthwise
To dry"
Helmets, wristlets and muf- !
aers are not desired during
the summer months, and in
future cannot be used by the
soldiers unless made of olive !
asah e. khaki although M to !
the present time, these articles
knit of gray wool have been
officially sanctioned for use in
the service. Where the quaI-

Use prunes, dried apples,

Use dates or raisins. These

not need sugar.
Use ripe bananas with dark

Use Cereals

These are much cheaper
than the .ready-to-eat' break

the package contains only one

eight or ten times as expensive
as corn meal at 6 or Z cents a

printed on the package and
get the most for your money.
Corn-meal mush and oat-

them long enough.
