T<HE man for whom you choose
the food, madam, depends
largely on you to keep him fit for
the modern business grind.
He needs foods that give him
luscious favor to enjoy, and energy
and iron to refresh and vitalize
him.
Raisin pie is prime food in both
respects.
Raisins are rich in iron. Men need
but small bit of iron daily, yet that
need is zstal. Raisins furnish 1860
calorics of energizing nutrimcnt per
pound-in practically pre-digestcd
form.

BIBLE CLASS
HOLDS MEETING

The Methodist Mems Bible class
spent this week an enjoyable even
ing at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. w.
s. Halsted. While the number was
not large, it was an enthusiastic
bunch. Among the discussions that
took place church advertising came
in for it's share. 1t was decided that
the church was the great institution
that advanced the principles in the
world that makes for the best citizen
ship, it should be advertised more and
in such way that people would have
it brought before them what the con-
dition Of the world and civilization
would be, were there no churches. 1t
was thought that if the labor and rate
problem could be settled and some
other problems according to the
spirit of the Bible, then the greed or
man would not hold up the transpor-
tation and distribution of grain and
foodstuffs for the starving people OF
the world. Then and not until then,
would we be using the bount1ful crops
(enough to feed the world each yearl
that God has given to his people as
he wants them used. The usual bus
mess being finished refreshments
were served and enjoyed by all.
A little incident ocurred on the
road to Mr.. Halsted's on this most
beautiful moonlight night. We mo-
ticed a car standing in the center OF
the road half way up Fox's Hill.
Things looking little suspicious, we
slowed up and there was a man stand
ing in front of his car with a quantity
of moonshine. This person proved to
be Frank Thomas filing his radiator
which he had drained the night be-
fore and had neglected to refill. Al
cohol or water is quite necessary in
operating most cars.-Secretary.

Irish Relief Work Licensed

the State Board of Charities and Cor
rections to the Maine Branch of that
organization. It's office is at No. 81

Secretary James F. Bagley of the
board says:
Our State law requires that no or
ganization shall solicit funds for
charity or benevolent purposes out
side of the city or town where the or
ganiZation has its place of business
without license from the State
Board of Charities. The board before
issuing such license is required to
be satisfied that the organization is
managed by reputable and RESPONSE
BILE people, that proper records will
be kept of the funds and that they
will be applied to the purpose for
which solicited.
THE Department of Charities is
not required to pass upon the need in
the community of the charity in
question. 1t is for the donor to de-
eide what charities he will support
but the theory underlying is that the
State government will attempt to as
sist him in determining that he is
acting in the support of any particu-

he may be interested through a re-
