This forenoon 1t was reported at

yassers who took part In the solicit
ing for the annual roll call Sunday
had collected $1006. Other member
ship subscriptions are being received
and the amount is increasing in

OF the local branch and the county
chapter are encouraged over the re-
suits thus far realized they ara fully
awake to the fact that a LARGER fund
must be obtained If permanent
nursing organization is to Le cstab-
lished in Bennington.
Undoubtedly few persons were
overlooked by the canvassers for the
reason that numerous residents Oh
the village were out of town. With
the holiday on Friday and but one
day intervening during the remainder
of the week it was but natural that
people should avail themselves OK the
longer weekend to make visits at
the homes Of out of town relatives
and friends. Pretty much all but the
absentees, however found themselves
between the teeth Of the fine comb
which the canvassers dragged
through the village. 1t was an effici-
ent effort and reflects large amount
of credit upon those who carried 1t
out.
The Red Cross should have more
members in Bennington than we're
brought into the fold on Sunday and
they should enroll without solicita-
tion. Their contributions may ba
turned in at the County bank, thf
