vice bureau and it gives a good out
line OF so much of the work which
is beirg done. "A man of good char
acter. one who is an asset to his
community we'll thought of and in
splendidt standing, was taken i'll last
February and was taken to the hos
pital. He had saved no money. He
had fine wife and a darling baby.
They had nice home. But financial
aid was needed. They went to the
local Home Service Bureau. There
matters were talked over. House.
hold expenses, the needs of the baby
and tn cost of the general up-keep
of the little family while the head of
the house was unable to earn, was
talked over. AS in so many other
cases it was talked over frankly and
openly and the amount which was
needed was decided upon A weekly
allowance was given the wife. In
June the.- mans compensation was
received and now he is paving back
what was, loaned him by the Red
Cross.
Oftenr times when a man is sick
and needs money nnd cannot work
he is not the most pleasant person
in the world to deal with. But the
Home service workers arm them
selves with tact, patience and all un-
derstanding when they start out to
aid the eX-service men in this class.
One man who needed aid had al
ready sent IN his claim to the gov
eminent whole month before he
called upon the local Red Cross
This made handicap in the pro-
gress of the case as the Red Cross
workers like to have copies of all the
correspondence and have the facts
at their fingers tips in order to bet
ter work upon the case. This man
wanted money and he said that he
would pay it back whether or rot
they wanted him to. His manner
was most aggressive as he had lost
a good deal of good nature in that
months time waiting for his money.
He was man who had always been
able to pay his own way, who had
been able to afford the best for his
family and naturally the privation
coming as it did, went a long ways in
changing his disposition. The money
was forthcoming from the Home SER
vice bureau The Red Cross is still
paying the man weekly checks. He
received q letter in the middle of
September saying that his compensa-
ton would be paid. 1t will not be
long before the man will be enabled
to pay back his loan.
These two instances are given as
only examples of some of the work
which has to be taken up.

ROACH POWDER
PANCAKES KILL
MARYLAND MAN
Early Rising Hunter Used
Wrong Can in Preparing E.
Breakfast.

CUMBERLAND, Md, Dec. 80
William Ritchey, fifty-three years old.
died last night at the Western Mary
land Hospital from arsenic poisoning,
as a result Of using roach powder in
mixing pancakes, instead of baking
powder.
His sonin-law, W. z. Brooks, who
olso ate some OF the cakes, was made
Ill. but 1t is thought he will recover.
The men arose at $50 in the morn
ing to go hunting and prepared their
own breakfast. Members Of the
family say the insect powder was kept
In a baking powder tin and In the dim
light the wrong can was picked up.
A half hour after the meal Brooks
complained Of illness and said he
would not go hunting, whereupon
Ritchey started out alone, not having
felt the effects OF the poison. Al
noon he returned hardly able to walk
In the meantime DR.. l.. r. Meyers had
been called to attend Brooks. The
latter gave evidence OF poisoning, and
when members OF the family found
the open can of insect powder in the
cupboard the cause Of his condition
was made plain.
When Ritchey returned he was re-
moved at once to the hospital, but the
poison had gained such Roadway that
SIX hours work with him by doctors
was for nought.

Sailendra N. Chose, director OF the
American Commission to Promote
Enforcement In India. today is
sued this statement:
dispatches from Ahmedabad,
where the All-India National Con-
gress and the Kalifat Association
committee are meeting. declaring
Mahatma Gandhi has been voted sole
executive authority over the con-
sress, indicate that step has been
taken ais the preliminary to actual
declaration of the Republic Of India.
which was to have been made this
week.
Whether Gandhi will proclaim the
republic before the congress adjourns
on December 81 now seems doubtful.
1t Is possible he may wait until the
first trial of the order of civil dis
obedience and non-payment Of taxes,
before issuing the declaration. Tax
collections in India are made in the
latter part of January. II the masses
follow Gandhi's instructions not to
lay the levy and the British attempt
to use force to make the collections,
then the people will resist.
"Gandhi, in q recent issue of his
paper, Young India, authorized the
people to arm for defense. Clashes
over the non.payment of taxes would
certainly put the people on the de-
fensive and warrant a transition of
the revolution from pacific nom
cooperation with the British to open
rebellion.
THE reported action of the con-
gress In giving Gandhi virtually die
tatorial powers Is highly significant.

has allowed authority to pass to an
individual. all orders and actions In
the past having been made by the
