RED CROSS NOTES

At a recent meeting Of the local
chapter of the American Red Cross
a report from the Production COM
mittee was made by Mrs. Grace
Bartlett. This very interesting item
was given showing the surprisingly
large number of useful ..rticles made
from odds and ends of yarn. left
from previous work at the rooms.
The yarn was placed in the hands
OF willing workers in a neighboring
town and the following articles were
made: Five slip-on sweaters. two
sweaters with sleeves; five pairs
children's mittens; three pairs mems
Tnittens: eight pairs children's stock
ings; four pairs feet for mems
stockings.
These were all given to families
where the need of such warm and
comfortable clothing was greatest.
A good amount of sewing and
knitting has been done: several boxes
are to be shipped soon.
Not all the work asked for by tho
division office has been accomplished
especially the layettes owing to the
small number Of workers who come
to the room to work.
Do the women realize that very
young babies are being wrapped in
paper and suffering because OF the
lack of these layettes?
Mrs. Bartlett and Mrs. Barton are
at the Red Cross office at 81 Main
street every Tuesday afternoon. Will
you come and help them?

AUTO TRUCK, CASH AND
SMALL WARES STOLEN

Fairfield was visited Thursday
night by some one who wished to en-
ter the stores while others were not
around. The store of J. G. Gilbert on
Water street was entered in some
way, although the owner seems to be
unable to see how it was accom-
plished and the goods quite badly
scattered about. About all that was
taken was cigars, cigarettes and a
small amount of change that was
in the register Matches We're found
on the floor. A small Ford truck
which was kept in a garage beside
the store was taken.
The grocery store Of the Lemlin
brothers short distnce above the Gill
bert store on Water street was also
visited. The entrance was made
through a window beside the front
door and other windows were pried
but could not be opened. About $25
in the cash register and SIS worth of
pennies in the slip register were
taken. A safe which is kept in the
front corner of the room was moved
about six feet out in front of the
door but for some reason was left
there. The exist was made by the
frnt door which was pried open.
The Office of Albert Jewell & Sons
was entered and papers and fur
nishings badly scattered about but
nothing seems to have been taken.
Orrin Leonard was probably the
heaviest loser as he is unable to tell
just how much stock was taken. A
ladder was taken from the Atlantic
Pacific store and entrance made
through window in the back of the
store. There was only about Sc in
change in the cash register. This
was taken with ravelling bag
which sold for $50. several suit cases,
ladies shoes, shirts and other mems
furnishings. Sixteen coat hangers

punters, and Pfaffman and Buell.,
drop kickers, whose work is expected
to count heavily in the skirmish. The
air currents in the big concrete
horse shoe worried the kickers for a
short time but before they left all
were performing in good shape, the
punters averaging As yards and the
drop kickers bOOting the ball with
accuracy from the IS to the 40-yard
lines.
The Tigers contented themselves
with a signal drill and quit work
early in order to give the visitors an
opportunity to get accustomed to the
stadium.
Neither Bob Fisher, the Harvard
coach, nor Bill Roper, chief of the
Tiger instructors, would give any
definite statements as to the probable
outcome of the game, but agreed that
it would be hard fought and close.
The members of both elevens are in
excellent physical condition.

NEEDY FAMILY FINDS
STRANGERS KIND

One family on Water street learn
cd Thursday evening that there were
kind hearts in a strange land, if news
of need is made known. In certain
tenement on Water street lives q
man, his wife and two little children.
The family are strangers and the
father was without work. There was
little in the house in the way of fur
nishings and but few OF the conven-
fences of life. There was also no
fuel, no food and no real bedding to
speak of. What called the attention
of the neighbors to the family was
the sight of one of the little ones in
the window with bare feet, placed in
the sun to get the warmth of it's
rays. Inquiries were made and the
plight of the family made known.
Kind hearted young men and police
officer made up purse and bought a
lot of groceries and took them to the
humble home. Another youngster
sent a dressed chicken. The boys
did not tarry when they carried the
supplies but came out as quickly as
possible, their hearts full with the
joy of giving. Friday the ladies of
the neighborhood, hearing of the
case, gathered clothing, bedding,
household articles and many things
that would be of use and took them
to the grateful mother, who could
hardly express her thanks.
The family had had dealings with
several stores, but although they
bought sparingly. they always paid
for what they bought and no intima
ton OF their plight was APPARENT. The
children had had no milk or other
suitable food for several days and for
two days had eaten notphing but raw
otatoes. There was no fuel to build a
fire with which to cook the potatoes.
But things are changed now. The
father has secured employment and
with the kindness of their neighbors,
who have been PLAID to prove of as
sistance to them, the little family
will be able to weather the storm and
they will have given their friends the
opportunity OF making themselves
happy by doing for others.

COLBY COLLEGE
Coburn Surprises by
Beating Westbrook

All the dope of the papers failed
yesterday afternoon when Ginger"
Fraser's hard fighting team took the
measure of Westbrook Seminary by
the score of IA to 0. The papers fig
ured that if Westbrook beat Kent's
Hill IA to O.. and kent's Hill beat Co
burn to 0, then Westbrook should
by all means trim Coburn. But the
Coburn team was not out for a lick
ing but for a victory. They go it.
They scored at the end of the first
period after fumbles had given them
the ball, on the 20-yard line. Coburn
kicked off but Westbrook fumbled and
lost the ball. Coburn rushed the ball
to the 22yard line where they, too,
lost it on tumble. Westbrook rush
ed once and fumbled again, the ball
going to CobuIm in the 20-yaTd line.
From then on the game was Coburn's.
They rushed for first down and then
Peters took the ball over the touch
