is now completed, with even more
than the usual success. The num-
Der of members is 468, and the
amount received for membership
$649.19 of which amount S362.75
remains for the local work, which
by odd gifts has been raised to
1878. OF the rest, 1894 goes to the
national organization for national
work, and $52.40 to the County
Chapter, to aid in the support of
the secretary, who will spend most
of her time in work for disabled
soldiers. The local chapter have

necessary part of our community.

some do not remember, that the
services of the district nurse are
available to all the citizens OF the
town of Lyndon. These services
are free, except in eases where
people are able AMI wish to pa the
small fee. She is paid a salary, so
that any fees received by her are
turned over to the local chapter.
