A Happy New Year from the Red Cross.

A Happy NeW rear rom
 the Red Cross.
 The Red Cross Chapter wishes ev- cry one a Happy New Year and one free for activities in the workroom. The membership roll comes quite near the six hundred and seventy mark; still coming, but perhaps not coming strong. However, should this number mean one-third of them workers on Tuesdays and Fridays, even so, it would be goodly number to carry on the work assigned the chapter. In making a summary of the years work, exclusive of shipments, there are few points the chairman would make note of in the way of the gen. erosity for minor details ofttimes overlooked Among them is the jan itor service, paid for by outside funds, laundry service given gratui- tously by the Flagstaff Steam Laun- dry, amounting each week to quite a service. The electric fixtures have always been supplied free of charge, and the phone service also; even the sharpening of the scissors, an item we'll worth mentioning, has been at tended to by generous patrons. A bulletin board will be one of the fea- lures for the New Year; this will take care of all notices and news letters from headquarters. The Roll of Honor which has been prepared will be in the workroom today and on it will appear the names of those who have worked diligently to see that the little French orphans had those black dresses. The completion of the con signment of pajamas for December will include a new lot of some ten hundred just recently received. How would you feel if you had credit for making twenty-five pairs? This hon. or is held by Mrs. J. D. Jackson.
 All things point to renewed activi- ties in the workroom for the year 1919. If the year is to be the pros porous one predicted, the Red Cross should have share in it.

 Dinners and luncheons and parties of all kinds have opened up the winter social season in the most gala style.

How War May Overcome Prejudice.

Englishmen are overcoming their old
fashioned prejudice against 'brainy"
women, and nowadays all sorts of jobs
are being tackled by women with Won
derful success.
But there>is one sphere which has al
ways been open to them and which has
proved more or less failure, and that
is the medical profession. The failure
of women in this branch is due, strange
to say, to the prejudice of women.
At present there is shortage of ply
sicians, but there are in training q
$50 women medical students. 1t re-
mains to be seen to what extent Eng
lish women will patronize them.
Meanwhile the authorities are urg-
ing expectant mothers to engage wom-
EN- doctors to bring their children into
the world.

good deal Of attention to food con.

these nelghborhood clubs have taken
an active interest in food and other pa.
trlotic questions there the pastors Of
the churches have paid attention to
the matter from the pulpit. The neigh.
borhood club speaks well for the en-.

One Of these clubs that has had war

BROUGHT TOGETHER BY FATE
How Two Brothers in the British
Service, Long Parted, Met Each
Other on Hospital Dock.

The part which fate played in the
reunion of two long-separated BROTH
ers Is told from an embarkaton
port In the south of England. Two
hospital ships We're berthed at the
same time alongside the landing
stage. One was from France and the
other from the near East.
For the most part the cases, removed
from one ship saw nothing of
those disembarked from the other, but
it happened by chance that one of the
first stretcher cases from the near
East was laid down in the shed along
side one of the last stretcher cases
from the French ship. But the two
men did not see each other, as their
heads were turned in opposite direc-
tiOns.
An orderly walking between the
stretchers offered newspaper to one
of the men. and as he spoke both
turned their heads and saw and recog-
nized euch other. They We're BROTH
ers. Both had been serving since the
autumn of 1914, and neither had the
remotest idea of what had become of
the other.

ODD BELIEF ABOUT GEESE
Long Ago It Was Universally Thought
That They Originated From
the Barnaele.

The popular sixteenth century be.
lief that geese originated from the
barnacle was not confined to the un.
educated. but was shared. even by nat
uralists. John Gerard, In his "Her-
ball Cor General Historic of Plantes''
(printed In London in 1870, In giving
description of this marvel. says he
only tells "what our eies have scene
and hands have touched" ION the
Pile Of Foulders." he goes on to say,
"are founde certaine shells, wherein
is conteined thing in forme like q
lace finely woven; one end whereof is
fastned unto the incide Of the shell
the other end is made fast unto a rude
mass. which in time c0mmeth to the
shape of bird. In short space after
1t commeth to maturitie, and falleth
into the sea, where 1t gathereth feath-
ers and groweth to foule which the
people Of Lancashire call by no other
name then tree goose"
He goes on to testify to their abun.
dance by saying that the best of them
could be bought for three-pence, and
challenges the incredulous to "repaire
unto me and shall satisfie them by
the testimonie Of good Witnesses"
The Pile of Foulders is the small
island now known as Piel Island, near
