Looking for a Torch
(By Roland T. Patten)

(By Roland T. Patten)
On the hearth at the right Of my
fireplace in my home sits Cape Cod
Lighter, so called. This is a brass
receptacle somewhat like an old
fashioned quart or two quart liquid
measure. 1t is intended to contain
kerosene in which an asbestos torch
is supposed to be soaking. The
torch is not there. 81 have been try
ing to purchase one for more than
year. Doubtless this lighter gets
it's name from the custom of the sea-
faring men of Cape Cod and else
where of keeping some kindling wood
partly immersed in dish of oil, with
which to light or brighten up their
fires. The modification, as above
described, makes a very nice outfit
for the present day fireplace. The
torch is made of piece of asbestos
about the size and shape Of a well
grown potato. 1t is secured by a
substantial wire which also extends
upward and serve as handle. In
lighting the fire you take out this
torch and apply match to the lower
extremity where the excess of kero-
sene will accumulate. You can then
place this in among the wood and
1t will burn long enough to ignite even
rather obdurate material.
My torch went ON a strike about
February, 1922. The wire, heated a
good many times, finally crumpled
and went, oue of commission. I COM
menced to search for new torch
among the retail establishments at
Skowhegan, but did not find any. Sew
eral of the local dealers were kind
enough to offer to send for one and
did SO, but have never been success
full in their quest. On a recent trip
to Boston I saw one of these Cape
Cod lighters In a store window on
Boylston street. My impulse was to
rush in and buy torch. / did not
do it. My vow:
"Never to purchase anything
at retail outside Of Somerset
County"
was a decided bar to that action, SO
l just took the number of the estab-
lishment. On returning home I
wrote asking them to ship torch
for me to a we'll known Skowhegan
furniture dealer stating that I would
buy through him. A reply was re-
ceived stating the price and advising
that they would ship by parcel post
on receipt of my check. They fur
Their state that they did not know of
anyone in Skowhegan who carried
torches or articles Of that kind.
So I am still without the torch and
shall ever be unless some Somerset
County dealer is able to get one for
me. In the meantime am suffer-
ing no hardship for I can, by taking
little pains, have some good kind
ling at hand and light my fire as gen.
erations have done before me. The
torch is little the classier and easi-
er method, however, and I really
would like one. Cans some local
merchant find a way to get it for me:

THE RED CROSS IN PEACE TIME

We all know what the Red Cross
did in war time, and the knowledge
makes it a little bit more sacred to
most of us. A good many sons and
brothers and husbands wouldn't have
come back If it had not been for the
devotion of the nurses and doctors
who worked under the cross militant.
But perhaps not all of us realize
that the Red Cross organization is
just as untiring in time of peace. and
very nearly as busy. 1t is like a
huge tree whose branches spread
over many lands, "and the leaves of
the tree are for4the healing of the
nations" Where disaster is, there
Is the Red Cross. Sufferers every
where, from the village swept by a
E:S.ocaust to men broken by caving
mine, have learned to recognize it as
a relief and hope.
In our own communities, possibly
the biggest piece of work Is accom-
plished thru the children And
where could a bigger be done. TAX
ing subnormal children,-due, in many
cases, to lack of knowledge on the
part of the parents,-and setting them
on the road to normal childhood,
shorn of the bugbears of nerves or
acknowledgements, that is one phase.
Constant supervision of the schools,
removing much OF the danger from
epidemics by catching them at the
start,-that is another. Visiting the
homes of deficient children, and very
often finding some condition which
may be causing a pupils dullness,
