NORWICH TOWN
Rev. Edward H. Smith Writes from Foochow-Men's League Addressed by Rev. George R. Strouse-Com- mittee Named for Children's Day Exercises.

In a recent letter, Rev. Edward H. Smith writes from F7oochow, China: Reached Foochow the day after Sher- wood Eddy and Arthur Rugh, who was in Norwich at the '. M. c. A. four years ago, had started the won derful meetings which have greatly stirred and helped the religious life of the churches and schools at Foo chow. It was a privilege to come, into touch with them. As we pulled slowly up the river in a sampan we noticed the plum and persimmon and peach trees in bloom, but We have had no rain since we reached here on Thanksgiving day, and in fact there has been no rain since last August. They fear a drought unless rain comes soon. All the rice fields must be flooded to about four inches to save the crop. I visited Mi Guang, who has been my helper 15 years, and who is very ill Df Kinnear gave him up year ago. He was principal of our boys academy for eight years is a graduate of Foochow college and sem mary and is 33 years old. His wife four children during his long illness. If we had 100 such young men as Mi Guang we could evangelize China. He is the peer of any missionary or stu
 dent friend I have ever known and if God takes him home 1 shall try to make sure those little children get a Christian education. Who will help them to it?

Norwich People Invited to Tender This
 Patriotic Service.

The Brooklyn (N. Y.) Womens Ser vice league, through their chairman, Miss Caroline Camp, have sent a call to the local league asking for names of those who would be willing to open the hospitality of their hearts and homes to a convalescent soldier or sailor. This is a most practical and kindly way of expressing ones appre citation of these brave young fellows who have been wounded in our coun- try's cause for democracy, and any householder who has rooms to spare will demonstrate hi9 patriotism by offering a temporary home to one of these convalescing men. Mrs. John D. Hall. 5S Otis street, the local chairman, will be glad to receive and forward to the league all names of those who will take one of the na- tion's fighting men as a temporary guest.
 It is hoped that many Norwich peo- pie will avail themselves of this chance to do their bit,

HAVE YOU LOST YOUR
 RED CROSS MEMBERSHIP
Executive Committee Issues Call For
 Response to Renewal Request.


 A fortnight has passed since a notice was mailed to the members of the Norwich chapter of the Red Cross whose membership expired May 1st. Many have, responded to the request for renewal; to the surprise and deep regret, of the executive committee, not 8 few have failed to reply.
 We repeat the request and urge the men and women whose membership terminated May 1st to forward the fee, s1, before the close of this week to the treasurer of the chaper, Miss Louise NJ Meech, Broadway.
 Of the sum derived from the mem bership fees one-half is sent to head quarters, for the maintenance of the national organization; one half is re- tained by the local chapter and IS used in the purchase of materials for the war work carried on by the women of the Red Cross.
 The payment Of $1 not only gives one a place in this great Army of Mercy, it contributes directly to the carrying forward of it's blessed ser vice to those whose claim upon us is supreme.
 We are constrained therefore to asle immediate attention to this request During the Christmas campaign by clerical error, deeply regretted, a list Of names. of those who renewed their membership at that time was mislaid. In a number of instances the present request has been sent to those whose membership fee was paid Fat the beginning of the year. We ask all such persons to eon1- munieate at once with the treasurer in order that tI4 error may be cor | rected.
 Do not lose your membership in the Red Cross.
 JOSEPH H. SELDEN, 1 For the Executive Committee.
