Red Cross


Measured in terms of service tn. Waldo
-ouuty Chapter, A. R. c., has just COM
lied most successful year, as evidenced
i, the various reports of committees at
he annual meeting held on Wednesday,
n. 10Th, at the Red Cross rooms. Mrs.
Durham's report of the civilian re-
a york was particularly interesting,
,u4ng as it did, that this branch of the
s-r-e instead of decreasing perceptibly
|, might be expected with the lapse of
me. is developing in unexpected and
ssr broadening phases of helpfulness to
ex-service men and their families.
y,s Sen Hazeltine, chairman of pro-
cuve activities, gave most gratifying
4r,-t Of the completion of work; which
ssnsd quite impossible of accol lhplish-
mint when the quota was assigned.
lsaAs to the ready response ;of the
Iagaspeople and the aid of the Branches
-s not only collected the necessary
I1mslts of various kinds for children,
a fought materials and made 100 lay
s.s at the cost of much devotion on the
w Of the workers. Whenever there
-8rments to be cut, as in this case,
BE- -enew the debt of gratitude to the
mlson Manufacturing Co., who have
j ractically all the garments made by
napter since 1917. And whenever
ss are materials to be bought they
r. reason to thank the local merchants
generous discounts. In some towns
branches have been discontinued;
early every town in the county,
1.s,ter orgaTized for the Req Gloss or
- d something towards the layettes
with money or with needle.
4lcially, they have also cause for
a -ie that they have been able 10 sup
- Public Health Nurse, and carry on
1er activities of the Chaptef with
. paid and a small balance in the
~. They wish to thank all who
eIped to make this work possible,
a pecialIy to express their gratitude
r contribution of $500 from the city,
n It which our treasury at the pres
Ia ne would be discouraging. Now
-.g sre confronted with the problem of
rs at least as much as they spent
ag ear, 1t should be more for there is
E sr increasing need of just such hu-
ll. rian service as the Red Cross is
zed to give. They are hoping great
s rom the forthcoming Roll Call,
7H everyone in the county will be
5-r he opportunity of Joining or re-
s membership in this great organi-
'-r treasurer's report as given below
