RED CROSS WANTS
INDIVIDUAL WORKERS

The Grand Forks county chapter
is appealing very strongly for indt-
vidual workers. In the July ship
ment. to Northern division head
quarters, just made, the Grand Forks
county chapter fell short Of its al
ment was an extraordinarily large
one, but there were many extra ar
ticles included. and on those articles
required in the regular allotment.
there was a shortage. The chapter
has beer allotted a certain numoer
of garments to be made each month.
and no matter how many other items
less this allotment is met. it has to
be made up later. Full instructions
were sent out to the various Red
Cross Organizations throuSh n
county. but these instructions either
were not fully understood. or they
were disregarded, because there was
a shortage in some Of the required
articles. The chapter was not enlre-
ly to blame for the lackins number
Of boys suits for the reason that the
material for them did not arrive un-
til the latter part of the month. and
there was only a very small amount
on hand. The helpless case shirts,
of which the chapter is expected to
furnish 400 per month, fell $50 gar
ments short, n this was due to
fact that many Of the societies did
not realize that the garments had to
he made of outing flannel. Those
that were made of muslin. did not
count on the allotment.
This month, because Of the short
age Of the July shipment, this num-
Der Of garments will have to be
made: ABS pairs pajamas; $50 help
less case shirts; 155 mems day shirts:
$50 boys suits; lao petticoats; 24O
pinafores, beside a number of capes
and chemise. Circles and orancnes
cannot be expected to make all OF
these, and consequently the chapter
is appealing for individual workers.
These garments, which are cut at the
headquarters nay be taken home Tor
making. Any woman who thinks she
could make one boys suit, or several
of them, a helpless case shirt, or
several Of them, or any of the other
garments that are asked for, may
time about making them. They have
to be ready for shipment by the last
Of the month, but certainly a month
would be enough time in which to
make any Of the garments, no matter
how little time could be devoted to
the work. 1t is the individual work.
ers that will count, in making up
please call at the chapter rooms in
the First National bank building,
they will be given the cut garments,
and any necessary instructions.
If the Grand Forks county wo-
men had not done such excellent
work, and such a quantity of it, aid
had not shown themselves to be cap
able of doing a quantity of the very
best kind Of work, their allotment
might not have been so large. But
having started out so briskly, and
having made such an excellent rec
ord. they can't possibly go back or
that record now.
Who will volunteer to take home
a garment to be made during Az.
gust?

Berlin, Dec. 16.-Discussing Presi-
dent Wilson's trip to Europe, Count
Won Reventlow in the Tages Zeitung
says:
"Germans must pay any price, no
matter how high, which the United
States names as a condition for re-
sumption of their position and rela-
tions with the world"
The count believed the presidents
consent to the armistice conditions
was bound to prove inimical to the
influence eof the United States IN
Europe and among it's associates. -,
The minister said that Italy had
more men under arm, in proportion
to population than any other nation.
The war cost Italy $4,000, 1000 900
lire. Premier Orlando told the Sen
ate that Italy was not in position
to demobilize a single man and that
all war material should be kept IN
tact. Immediate difficulties to be
snrmounted he said, had not dimln-
ished. but increased. He said rep
aration for damages was question
outside of discussion. President Will
sons principles excluded an lndem-
nitv in the traditional sense, but
doubtless Italy would adopt the same
nolicv regarding reparation as the
other allies. A commission has been

Paris, Dec. 16-President Wilson
today delivered an address at the city
hall in which he said:
at was with no ordinary sympathy
that the people of the United States
viewed the sufferings OF France, for
many of our own people witnessed
those sufferings. We are more deep
ly moved by the wrongs CT war be-
cause we know the manner in which
they were perpetrated. These suf-
ferings filled our hearth with indig-
nation, for we knew what they were
and what they signified. Our hearts
were touched to the quick by what
France and Belgium particularly ex-
perienced and when the United States
entered the war it was moved by a
conviction that the purposes of the
Central Empires was wrong and must
be resisted by men everywhere who
loved liberty and right, because the
illicit ambitions they were entertain
ing and attempting to realize led to
practices which shocked our hearts
and offended our principles. Our
resolution was formed because we
knew how profoundly the great prln-
ciples of right were affected, but our
hearts were moved also with resolu-
tion,"

London, Dec. 16.-It will he fort
night before the ballots are counted.
There is little speculation as to the
result of Saturdays elections, as it
is universally admitted that it is al
most foregone conclusion the Goa
lition ministry will be victorious and
it will probably have 400 or more
members in the new House of Com
mons. The many millions of new
votes cast by women, as well as by
men, leaves room for surprises. The
greatest curiosity centers on the
strength of the labor vote which, un-
der the new conditions, is an unknown
quantity. 1t would not be surprising
if it were found that women voters
supported labor in the Midland and
northern industrial counties.

Imperial County Farm Bureau has
for the second time this season-been
asked to advise turkey growers to
bid on turkeys to be furnished vari-
Gus military camps in Southern Cali

the Christmas dinner is about 10000
pounds, as follows:
Camp Kearney, 1869 pounds;
Camp Beacon, $50 pounds; Balloon
School, Arcadia, 1900 pounds; March
Field, Riverside, 765 pounds; Rock
