FIRST AID TRAINING
To men and women
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose of instruction in First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross is to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand it. First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place Of a physicians service. A sur
geon should always be summoned as
a precautionary measur where there
is an injury of any consequence, but
when n cannot be secured a few min
utes' delay may mean a fatality. In
such q case a person trained in First
Aid is invaluable not only to the in
dividual, but through him to the COM
munity in which he lives.
There is perhaps no way Of ascer-
tanning the number of deaths or seri-
Gus disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. 1t is safe to as
serl they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
country's toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination Of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro
duced a farreaching and beneficial in
huence in the prevention Of accidents
on railroads, in mines and in great in
dustrial concerns.
The benefit Of a widespread knoW!-
edge Of First Aid in the event Of a
great disaster, such as a train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, ETC., is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training .can render efficient as
s~istance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
C) the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, Of classes for in
~struction in accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and ONE in all communities and in
every industry; co the Introduction Of
courses of instruction il high schools
and colleges.
The Red Cross Is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea-
sonable prices.
Every person in this country able to
90 so should, in his own interest, re-
ceive Red Cross First Aid instruction.
Information about the course and in"
struction classes may be had at the
nearest chapter headquarters.

RED CROSS EXTENDS
RELIEF TO POLAND

More than $5,O0O,OOO has been spent
by the American Red Cross in aiding
the stricken people Of Poland. The
organization has nursed the sick, fed
the starving, clothed the naked, shelter
ed the homeless, schooled the children
and cared for the orphans there. 1t has
conducted a relentless fight against
typhus, cholera and other terrible dis
eases. SO today millions of men and
women, in that resurrected nation
speak in grateful appreciation of "The
Greatest Mother in the World"
Nearly 200 American Red Cross
workers are now engaged in relief ac-
tivlties ire Poland. Four large relief
bases are in operation and eleven mo-
bile units are in the field. During the
Last twelve months this organization
was largely instrumental in the re-es-
tablishment of a million refugees at a
cost for general relief of more than
$1,OOO,0OO. Last winter one-half mil
lion war orphans were aided material
ly, and since then a series of large or
phanages have been established to give
them permanent care.
But for American Red Cross aid, Of
ficials Of Poland declared recently, mil
lions Of people in that country would
have persisted of disease, exposure OF
starvation the last eighteen months
And the work there must be kept ny
for another wear.

with hold their advertising patronage
from the Farmers Press is something
that is above the comprehension Of
quite a number of t~ownspeople as
in the neighborhood. In lending
themselves to the political machina-
tions of those opposed to the league
those who have withdrawn their ad-
vertising and signed up, are not in
the least muzzling the press and
aiding the cause they espouse, but
~antagonizing the trade that means
their bread and butter. 1t is making
votes for the league ticket and pro.
gram every day and mean a bigger
majority than ever for the league
at the election in the fall. The
boycott of the Farmers Press is one of
the best things that could have hap
pened for the league. 1t does not put
the farmers paper out of business,
but cannot otherwise than work an
injury on those who were 81 short.

PREACHERS sTARVE TO DEATH
English Clergy Unionizes to Combat
Low Wages When Twenty
Five Die.

London, England.-At least Is Prot
estant ministers are reported to have
died Of starvation in England last
year, and the parsons have now
formed the National Clerical union
for establishment Of a minimum liv-
ing wage for the clergy" While it is
announced the union will follow the
trend of trade unionism, the clergy
men have declared they have no in
tention TO strike to enforce their de-
mandS.
They will seek not only to ~establis''
a minimum wage, but also deal with
provisions for adequate retiring pen
sions and pensions for widows and
orphans of clergymen.
Rev. G, II. Lloyd Evans, acting sec
rotary of the new movement, said few

The campaign is now on and from
now until election day the papers
TEEN with the praise and abuse of
all who aspire for office from presi.
dent of the United States to the
smallest job on the county ticket.
This along with the tour of the cam
paigner cannot otherwise than mean
a wearisome six weeks for the peo-
pie who are being badgered around by
every Tom, Dick and Harry for their
vote. If the candidate and the great
moulders of public opinion, the press,
could only convince themselves with
the fact that now a days both Mr..
and Mre. Voter are doing consi-
derable individual thinking and there
is being expended a useless amount
of energy, by both the newspapers
and the political orator. When the
voters start doing their own thinking
and vote as they think the non.parti.
san league and its industrial program
has nothing to fear as to the outcome
at the polls on election day.

Langdon needs more community

Langdon needs more community
spirit and less political friction. Its
sure against its ovn better judgment
that the business interests will allow
matters polite to array themselves
in open warfare against what repre-
sents the larger portion of their
source of income-the farmers, who
represent the wealth and means of
subsistence Of the town dweller.
That is the right slant to take of this
petition affair Mr.. Business Man.
Can you really afford to do it when
you look the matter carefully over
and give it a second thought.
