JOHNsONs' REIGN SUPREME

One hundred and thirty-eight
Johnson's on the subscription list
and one hundred and thirty-two
JOhnsOn's paid in advance, is the
tale told by the subscription list in
the office of the Warren Sheaf. 1t
is an old thorn in the not too rosy
pathway of the average publisher,
the keeping paid-up of the subscrip-
ton list. However, if the records
showed the paid-up percentage in
all names that it does in the John
son category, there would be fewer
tears shed and less hair pulled in
the offices Of Minnesota weekly
newspaper publishers. r..

JUNIOR RED CROSS AIDS
EUROPEAN RELIEF FUND
Half Of Amount Collected For Europe
and Remainder For County
Work.

Junior Red Cross workers in Mar
shall county have raised a total Of
$314. 80. one-half Of which has been
sNHseA over to c. r. Pihlstrom, chair
man OF the European Child Relief
Council in Marshall county, to devote
to that fund while the other half of
the amount will be devoted to Red
Cross work in the county. The money
was raised by the: children in the
various schools in the county by sales,
entertainments and other money-raising
affairs under the direction Of the school
teachers. Miss Loretto G. Newman,
executive secretary Of the Red Cross
and Child Welfare board, has been in
charge Of the work throughout the
county. -
The money which will remain in the
county and will be used here will be
used to aid those children in the coun-
ty who are in need, or shall become in
need Of medical attention which their
parents cannot afford to give them.
There are often cases where children's
eyes are in need Of glasses, slight opera
tons become necessary on the tOnsils
or adenoids and other minor detri-
ments to the child's general health may
be corrected. There are also some
children who are slightly crippled and
certain shoes and braces are necessary
for them. These will be furnished from
the Red Cross fund.
According to Miss Newman, this
work cannot be considered as charity,
but is merely giving the more unfortun'
ate children Of the county the same adj
vantages that every child is entitled to
under our government. Those Of the
children who will need treatment for
a considerable period of time will be
sent to the state hospital for crippled
and deformed children at st. Paul. II
is one of the finest institutions Of its
kind In the country and while its treat
ments are bringing the crippled or de
formed child back. to normal, good
schooling will be constantly given the
child during his stay there as there Is
an excellent school for the children al
the institution.
The physicians of the county have
offered their services free Of charge tt
those children who cannot afford t.
call them for minor operations and ex
aminations such as the testing of eyes
and fitting Of glasses.
