EX-SERVICE MEN
 BOOST RED CROSS
Those Who Saw Work Organization Did Appreciate Its Worth-Driye
 Open November If

Former fighting men and civilian 1amilles who have been aided by the Home Service Section of the Ameri- can Red Cross arc among the most ardent workers for the success of the Red Cross roll call which will be held in New Britain Nov. fl to 21.
 During the past year the Red Cross in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey, through the Home Service Sections, served more than half a million families in many different ways. These services were performed in connection with ex-soldiers and sailors, helping them to prevent their claims to the government, finding em- ployment for them, helping their fam lilies in case of need or anxiety, and in every way possible protecting the homes of the men until they could as- sume the responsibility themselves.
 Connecticut has thirty-eight Home Service Sections, one of which is maintained in New Britain under the direction of Miss Avis M. Kemp. with an office in City Hall. New Britain has 362 disabled service men on its list and of this number, 26s have called at the local office for some form of help, the other 94 having been reach : ed by correspondence or home visits. Many of these men have wholly re- covered from their disability and have been returned to the normal life of the community.
 All those who desire to renew their membership in the New Britain Chap ter of the Red Cross, or to join for the first time, should register at CrowelFs new drug store in the Professional Building, West Main and Washington Streets. Headquarters there will be open from 9:3o a. m. to 6:0o p. m. daily all of next week.

Onos upon time, a very old and very
wine Witch Woman lived in a quaint htte
cottage all alone. Not exactly all alone,
for abe had some company In the shape O
. pet alligator and a canary, two dogs and
. eat The Witch spent her time IN max.
ing broomstick horses and had good
trade, for every year at thanksgiving
time she had a call for hundreds OF these
Stee<is.

Solu. which WAS the boys name, had
caught and tanned big alligator. 1t
would let the lad play on Its back ana

hated the witch Woman. !,
The alligator WAS bad animal. And
the Witch Woman was a bad woman
Yet il is fair to state that the woman was
. shade the better of the two. For she
never ate people, rs allgators do.
In one corner of the house was big
round canoe which Solu had spent hours
carving into pretty sections: 1t was
smooth and sloped just like bowl. On
the surface were dark and hight hgures
which made this hollow canoe very pretty,

was carving. :.

forward into the shadow.
The alligator saw her coming and
thought of only one way to escape-hc
would swallow pill, become small and
take the form of a bird, then fly AWAY
In two seconds he was tiny and the boat
had shrunk to fit him. So alarmed was
he that he forgot the magic words and
could do nothing The round canoe stuck
on his back and became shining round
brown shell; his head and tail and legs
still stuck out, SO that what was once a
big alligator was now only n tiny turtle
Serves him right" laughed the Witch
Woman, as she took him up and dropped
him outside in the mud of the creek: "now
