STRICKEN EUROPE
NEEDS OURHELP
American Red Cross Answering
Appeal on Wonderful Scale
Finest Peace Work
in History.
Now Red Cross Asks You and
Me to Do Our Part for
Those "Oyer There
-.
So We Must Join.

In war-torn Europe today there are
millions OF mothers and babies at the
point OF death from actual starvation.
Winter is at hand. Yet they are rag
ged and homeless. They are diseased
tuberculosis, dysentery, skin affec-
lions, fevers are ravaging them. They
are widowed and orphaned and broken
with grief.
In order to protect America and save
the liberties for which the allies have
been battling three years, our own
lads are over there now, fighting and
dying SO that you and ] and our wives
and cur daughters and babies may not
suffer Enspeakable cruelties at the
hands Of enemy savages.
Now then: The people Of America,
through their Red Cross, have under
taken to right the hideous wrongs the
Teltons have done to noncombatants
in Europe, SO far as it is possible to do
SO. It means building thousands of
homes, providing food, clothing and
care FOR millions, conducting hundreds
OF hospitals on large scale and thou
sands of medical dispensaries. It is
the biggest peace job the world has
ever seen.
But that isn't all-not by long shot.
The American Red Cross has colos-
sal war labor to perform. 1t must es-
tablfsh and operate hundreds Of large
military hospitals of various kinds for
our own armies and those of our al
lies. It must provide necessities and
comforts for the fighting men and for
the noble women who are nursing the
wounded In short, it must do every
thing possible to take some OF the
curse out of war.
This work is already well under
way. Our Red Cross is helping all
the stricken people on great scale.
Our Red Cross must not fall down
ON the Job. You and / are RESPONSE
BILE for the success Of the enterprise.
OF course we can't go over there, and
actually build houses and feed
the hungry and clothe the naked and
nurse the sick But we can back up
the great machine already in the field
and at work.
What can we dO--yOu and [!
Well, first Of all we must be mem.
bers of the Red Cross. At this writ
ing the organization needs millions
more Of us ON its muster rolls. We
compose the army at home support
ing the army in the feld-both peace
ful armies At home here we form
chapters and circles that furnish cloth
ing and hospital supplies for soldiers
and civilians in Europe. We must
provide funds. We must show direct,
intimate, personal interest in what the
Red Cross field organization is doing.
We must knit and sew and save and
give.
Right now the Red Cross is cam
paigning for 100000 members. Fiji
teen million members by Christ
mas Eve is the slogan. One years
membership costs one dollar. By pay
ing an additional dollar the member
gets the Red Cross Magazine for a
year.
Every man, woman and child in this
community ought to be wearing Red
Cross pin on Christmas Day. Every
father should make each of his chill
dren a Christmas gift of a Red Cross
membership and explain to the
youngsters the meaning of the present.

On the front page of the Review,
will be found paid communication
from Griffith Thomas, of Hurley, the
Republican candidate for the Assem-
bly,, nominated at the primaries
Wednesday, and whose election will
take place January l4th.
We are glad to see that he takes a
plain open stand on the q. S. Sena-
torship question, possibly, because it
fully agrees with our own opinion
The Forestry matter spoken Of al
though an old one, is still a very i'm
portant one to this assembly district.
AL previous attempts at securing
legislation tending to hasten the set
element and development of upper
Wisconsin has thus far failed, largely
a good many residents of Villas coDn-
ty have reason to think, due to hos
tile influence that gathers most Of its
force from the vicinity Of Madison.
1t does not seem as though it would
be an impossible job for member
from this part Of the state to con-
vince a majority Of his biother mem.
bers that In passing any kind OF law
such as placing all arabic state lands
within the reach of actual home
stead settlement, they would only be
laying by for rainy day, in this case
neaning, providing natural outlet
Tor the present and future overflow
of experienced farmers from the 5000
an acre sections of this state and
others. If Mr.. Thomas can bring
about any thing of this sort he will
be good man for the district to tie
-aIpto for several terms.

ferent favors in the frostings. By
adding richness and flavor to cake.
frosting has long list OF things in it's
favor.
The uacooked frOstings are especial
ly economical in the time saved in the
preparation. The favoring is entirely
preserved in the frosting as the heat
in baking destroys much of the volatile
havorS.
While the cake is cooling the frost
ing should be made, and If it is to be
served at once, the kind of frosting
best to use is the uncooked one, using
the wEite of an egg, beaten adding an
equal volume of water or fruit juice
and powdered sugar to the consistency
to spread. If it must stand, cover with
a damp cloth. If fruit juice is not
used, any flavor desired may be add
ed with the water.
Plain Boiled Frosting- Beat the
white of an egg until light and while
beating, have cooking a cupfaM of sugar
and quarter of a cupful Of water,
when the strip is honeylilSe ia consist
ency pour three tablespoonfuls over
the beaten egg, continue beating, and
continue cooking the si1Gp until it
hairs, then pour the remainder over
the egg slowly and beat until stiff
enough to put on the cake. A frosting
made in this way will keep longer,
will have shiny surface and creamy
consistency underneath
When frosting is overlooked and be-
comes too hard after beating, add a
little lemon juice, boiling water or
cream very small amounts will make
the frosting smooth. If it is too thin
add a little powdered sugar to thicken
it. The frosting will not be as good,
but better than to try to use it too
thin
Atmospheric conditions often play
havoc witch boiling sugar. a damp
rainy day the frosting is apG to be
sticky, even when boiling as usual.

Section, Bon the night of June
13-June IA an American patrol Of
thirteen men, operating on the front
occupied by our troops in Picardy. ran
into an ambush patrol OF forty Ger
mans. In spite of it's infefiority in
numbers. the greater part Of our
patrol cut it's way through the enemy
and returned to our lines. The fierce
ness Of the fighting may be judged
from the fact that nearly all Of our
men who returned had been wounded.

ported in an American official COM
Destruction OF one of the German

OFFENSIVE
THOUGHT PROBABLE
Likely if Austrian Drive
Breaks Down, 0bserv-
ers Here Believe.
NO u. S. TROOPS IN ITALY

Many military observers here be-
lieve that if the Austrian offensive
breaks down, as now seems entirely
possible, the Italians may launch a
vigorous counter offensive.
Should that be done the result might
have a decided bearing on western
front operations, for it is probable
that Germany would rush divisions of
its troops to aid Austria because OF
the effect an Italian success would
have upon the internal disturbances in
the dual empire.
Probably Shifting Huns Already.
Some officers are confident that the
lack of success for the Austrians now
disclosed already has resulted IN
shifting Of the German forces on the
western front in preparation to rusn
divisions to the Italian front to prop
up weak spots in case OF counter
drive Certainly, German reserves
must be held for that service. it was
argued, as the disorganization re-
sulting from the failure of an at
tempted drive to get through IS
almost as demoralizins to an army
as an enemy advance.
While there is any doubt in the
minds of the German leaders as 10
tie progress of events in Italy, a
considerable force of German shock
troops probably will be kept out OF
the western front fighting ana helo
at points in Germany where they can
be hastened to italy il needed. some
oficers hold that the lull in the vast
may be due in part, at least, 10 tne
fsct that the Germans feel !. neces-
sary to await developments In Naiy.
No o. s. Troops in Italy.
In connection with the italian situa-
ton Secretary Baker stated that no
American fighting units are in that re-
zion. American medical detachments
have been in Italy for some time and
some American aviators have been in
training there. The War Secretary re-
Gently stated. however, that American
troops are to be sent to the Italian front,
but for military reasons the plans for
the expedition have not been disclosed.
