THE HELPING HAND

Every soldier returning from
France is loud in his praise of the
!, Red Cross, not only because of its
i service among the sick and wounded
but because of the manifold ways
in which it has aided the soldiers
and kept them in touch with their
families. 1t has been extremely diff
ficult for many of our boys to get
quickly in touch with members of
their families and vice versa. It
has not been possible to send this
information thru official channels
and the Red Cross has preforme |
most of this service.
For example: A mother in this
country is anxious about her boy,
who has not written home TO- some
time. She makes inquiry thru the
proper bureau of the Red Cross at
Washington. This request is for
warded to France and a Red Cross
searcher is Immediately assigned to
locate the boy. In short time lie
Is found and the anxious mother IS
relieved by word from hinl or as to
his condition If he has been injured.
If he has been killed the exact place
of his burial is furnished and a
photograph of the grave will later be
sent to the family. In this manner
also the Red Cross has located men
in German prison camps and relieved
the anxiety of the parents and friends
by advising them of their condition.
The Red Cross has also been ex-
tremely helpful to the families of
soldiers and sailors. In many cases
allowances to wives and mothers and
allotments under the war insurance
law have been delayed. The Red
Cross has furnished temporary aid
to thousands of such dependents.
Far more important, however,
than any financial assistance is the
other class of help that has been ex-
tended to the families of soldiers,
such as in cases of sickness and in
ability to keep in touch with loved
ones at the front. The public should
bear this in mind when asked to re-
new membership in the Red Cross
and to secure new members. This
grand organization has done much
and it now asks but little from the
people.

MODS CONTROL MONTREAL CITY
Police and Firemen Go on Strike for

Montreal.-More than 1900 men OF
the four organized city services struck
Thursday for higher wages. The official
estimate by e. R. Decary, chairman

out was: Police, 844; firemen, $50;
garbage incineration department, $50;
engineers and others employed at the
low-level pumping station in the wa
terworks, 16.
With every policeman and virtually
every fireman in the city on strike for
higher wages, Montreal is helpless in

have been wrecked, citizens robbed
and stores looted. Saloons and dis

MILKING WHALES

In the course of the careful nurs

men have sometimes dreamed of a
future milkgiver as big as a whale

Lyle, state veterinarian of Oregon,

ocean as farm, the domesticated
whale would put the Oregon dairy
business on a mammoth scale.
Whales are manuals, each of which
furnishes about barrel Of milk at
milking, and while at present they
are a little too shy to be exactly
classed as easy mixers, some day
they will be domesticated. Tilla-
nook Bay, for instance, might be
made into good barnyard for milk
whales"
AS inquiry from more certain au-
thorities shows that whales do suckle
their young, it would appear the Ore

whale lives eight or nine centuries.
the enormous value of single milk

obvious. If their milk is good and
the yield in each case will be barrel
a day for 900 years, the desirab ility
of demonstrating" them admits of
no argument. But who is to do the
milking. Who, in the first place, is
to go out and drive home these great
cows of the sea. Shall we run them
down with submarines, take them
in tow and beach them? Are we to
establish whate-milking branch of
war work and impress into the SER
vice both sea-divers and all our

have to come forward again. So
