RED CROSS NOTES.
You Know.

John Cannot pay his taxes
Bill cannot pay his rent
Sam cannot meet his grocery bill
Tom hasn't got cent
They think the World is going Red
Because they have themselves been
bled-
They're not so very crazy about the
worlds regime
They wouldn't spend nickel or
Europes war machine
They haven't any money and they
don't know what to do
The children haven't any clothes, and
there isn't any stew.
The horses haven't any hay, there's
nothing for the cattle
The worlds all topsy- turvy, but VIC
won't give up the battle.
Well put our shoulder to the wheel
and give and give and give
So that our worthy fellow-man may
work and eat and live.

Russia or Japan
But a share of mine is always his
a hungry Montana man.
A soliciting committee from the Le-
gion Auxiliary will undertake to call
upon every individual in Eureka and
in Fortine, Rexford, Gateway, ETC., and
give everyone an opportunity to con-
tribute to the Red Cross. Fifty thou
sand Montana people will need help
this winter. s25O,0O0 will be required
and, kind folks are urged to contribute
that your fellowman and his childre-
may not go hungry during the winter
months The Red Gross membership is
one dollar, of which, so cents is sent
to the National Red Cross and SO cents
is kept for home necessities. Any adj

tional Red Cross, is credited to Mon

will be spent on needy Montana peo-
pie.
May we suggest that you meet these
ladies with a smile, contribute as gen

their way rejoicing. They are doing
more than might reasonably be expect

THE ANGELUs.

To the fields 60 the peasants in early
morn,
When the sky first shows faint streaks
of dawn.
They are not dressed in costly robes
But wear homespun dresses and woven
hose
At the close of day the Angelus rings
They stop their work, lay aside their
things,
And bow their heads in silent PRAYER
While the bell keeps ringing yonder
there.

Mr.. Hammargren's report shows
that the 1919 women enrolled in the
project passed on some of the Informal

the totals reached by the project
nearly 900.
Taken together, the seven years of
project work in homemaking that have
been carried on in the county, have
reached thousands of homes. Totaling
the enrollments for the seven years
shows that 1858 women were officially
enrolled, and in each case those ac-
tually attending the group meetings
passed on the work to hundreds of
their neighbors. Scores of local lead
ers, who have contributed their time
and effort toward carrying this work
to their respective communities, have
testified that the service thus rem
dered through the county agricultural
extension service has helped hundreds
of women to clothe their families bet

Many Made Glad
By Produce Gift

The Rev. A. E. Frost of AskOv, is
in receipt of letter from the secre-
tary of the Lutheran Welfare Society
in Minneapolis, thanking all who con-
tributed to the large amount of pro-
duce recently taken there from Askov.
The letter follows in part:
81 cannot tell you how much we
appreciate and the extent to which
we are indebted to you and your good
people for the wonderful donation of
produce and food which you have been
kind enough to deliver to us.
CAS- far as / have been able to de-
termine, everything arrived in good
condition, fine quality and certainly
in generous quantity. 1 do not know
just at this time the accurate value
in money of what you have given us,
but l can assure you that it is worth
more to us than you can realize. We
are distributing it among the various
departments of the Society where it is
most needed and where it will do the
most good. l am glad to report to
you that a Lutheran transfer company
has consented to haul the material
to the different departments so we
are not being put to any expense in
using it Immediately.
You may be interested to know
that at Trabert Hall, our young wo-
mems home, one-fourth of the guests
are out of work and most of them
without funds. They have no place
to go and are looking to us for friend
ship and sympathy. At Luther House
we have 32 young women, number
of whom are not we'll physically and
lack the funds and other help to
build up their health. At the Child
ren's Receiving Home, we are crowded
to the limit with little ones from 5
to Is, all of whom are destitute and
neglected, and nearly all of them
under the weekly care of the clinic.
Some of the benefits of your do
nation will also go to our girls group
which consists of Lutheran children
raised in orphanages and now here
in the Twin Cities under our general
friendly care.
Kindly convey to your good people
our deep gratitude. am confident
that our good Lord will bless them,
and that their gifts to our work are
already being blessed"

EXTENSION AID
TO HOME LIFE

rolling 100 women in 16 different COM
munity groups. This project, given
during 1924, was followed in 1925 with
an advanced project in clothing, with
a membership more than doubling
that of the first year. Three hun
dred and twenty-five women in 23
groups participated in the work,
which was given by Miss Bessie Will
lis, then state clothing specialist.
Nutrition was the topic to engage
the attention of the Pine county home
makers, 260 of them taking up this
project in 1926, under Miss Inez Ho-
bart of University Farm.
Meanwhile, many women who had
not been able to take part in the first
series of clothing projects were de-
this work. Accordingly, in 1927 and
1928 the beginning and advanced pro-
jects respectively were conducted by
Miss Lois Reid who had succeeded
Miss Willis. Fifteen groups of women,
including 206 individuals, took the be-
ginning work in 1927, while % groups
with 2O8 women carried the advanced
project in 1928.
Achievement Days Held.
Following the completion of the ad-
vanced clothing projects both in 1926
and 1928, achievement days were held,
both of which were outstanding sue
cesses. The 1926 achievement day
was held at the Pine City armory,
with 800 women and more than 200
men from all parts of t n e
county attending. The 1928 achieve
ment day took place at the Sandstone
high school building, with more than
500 in attendance, all parts of the
county again being represented.
The value and popularity of the
clothing work given during these two
years are shown by statements made
by project members, as recorded in
Mr.. Hammargren's 1923 report. OF
these statements the following is typi-
cal: 'The only suggestion for a
change in the clothing project 1 can
think of is to add children's clothes.

Pine First i'm Child Development.
In 1929 and 1880, Pine was one
of three counties chosen to receive
the first round of child development
projects ever presented in Minnesota.
Two hundred women took up this
study under their local leaders, who
were instructed by Mrs. Belle o. Fish
of University Farm. Mr.. Hammar-
gren reports that at the start there
was some difficulty in getting mothers
interested in this project, seemingly
because of lack of understanding of
what the project would take up. How
ever, after the first meeting, local
leaders in several communities were
almost stampeded by women wishing
to take part in the work. Some groups
starting with an enrolment of twelve
increased their memberships to 20

people when they chose the senator's.
But how many senators were out and
campaigned on issues before the peo-
pie? How many had platforms
printed? And how many of the sena-
tors or representatives debated the
public issues during their campaigns?
1t seems that there is too great an
emphasis placed on getting good COM
mittee assignments and undoubtedly
a number of the senators have cast
their lot with the majority group or
conservatives in order to get good
committee assignments which many
seem to think is so essential. How
ever, each and every member of the
Senate and the House have the privi-
lege of the floor and can argue their
cases before a final vote is taken on
the bills in which they are interested.
At the close of the second week Is
bills had been introduced in the
House. A number of those are sol
diers' bonus payments.
Representative ]. Adam Bede of
Duluth, former Pine county citizen
for about a quarter of century and
also at one time a member of Con-
gress, who now enjoys the title of
being a first termer in the state
House, speaks over the radio at six
o'clock every evening on what the
legislature is doing. Of course it is
in a humorous vein when it comes
from ]. Adam.

ments to the senator and the two rep
resentatives from the seth legislative
