The solicitors in- clude a number of United Commercial Travelers who are veterans at this sort of thing, having rendered with respect to women in indus pecially in delation to the war ems | ‘touch with the war labor administra-|ency. It will be of the greatest as ion. Miss Agnes Nestor, head of the Mrs. Edith W. Conklin, secretary|committée’s women in industry de- sistance to the state chairman of th departments of women in indus‘r of the Burleigh county chapter, has traced to its source one of those rumors, that Red Cross articles are sodl to. the.men at the front. Of! course everyone knew that the report was baseless, but these stories’ cause; the ‘Red Cross societies more irritat- ing embarrassment than anything else. In this instance a Burleigh county soldier stationed at Camp Sherman | wrote. to’ his wife that he had been “charged”: for a Red Cross’ garmeat. A Burleigh county resident wrote to ascertain the truth and Mrs. Conklin took it up with the northern division headquarters. An investigation was slarted’ at’ once and it was shown conclusively that the recruit of but a few months’ service, misunderstood his officer. Here are the findings of the cap- tain of the company: “After a thorough investigation it appears that through a misunder- standing on the part of Corporal Baie tes , of this company, wrote to his wife stating that he would have to nay for a Red Cross sweater. “This soldier is a recruit of but one months’ service, and when told that Ped Cross equipment would be charged to him, ‘he imagined that the word “charged” meant that he would have to ‘pay for the same, when as a matter of fact, he‘ had merely. been informed that this equipment would be charged against him on his indi- vidual clothing slip as having been is: sued and he would be held respon- sible therefore. “From the above investigation it would. appear that the use of ordinary intelligence would have shown this soldier that he was in error, and that the statement he made to his wife was utterly without foundation, “In accordance with instructions previously received all articles fur. nished by the Red Cross, when issued to the men of this company, are charged against them on their cloth ing slips, and they are instructed that they will be held responsible for the prover. care of this equipments “phe ‘statement that this soldier took up this matter with his com pany: commander is not true.” ‘PERSONAL NOTES| .

In that sense we may all be sol diers. We can’t all go to France. We can’t all wear, the khaki,..The, tasks that we are.told io do may seem small but itis our duty to do them and un- complainingly. In doing so we may have just as glorious a share in win- ning this war as: though our accom: plishments were heralded with the blare of trumpets, the waving of flags and white limelight of the press dis- patches. ; It may be that our duty as soldiers lies in the making of Red Cross sup- plies, It°may be the care cf soldiers’ lamilies, -It- may: be in taking the plate of one. more fortunate who can go to the front. It is national serv- ice, as well as good common sense, to| keep well so doctors who are caring for the practice of physicians who are in the sérvice may not be overworked. It is. national service to do volunteer work in civil hospitals so that nurses y-be released for the front. It is national service to follow rigorously the directions of the food administra- tion. It is national service to avoid yossip and the bickerings which, more than anything else, hinder the work ot those who are doing their best to organize the country so that we may win the war. Whatever the task, be it great or is our dnty as soldiers to do it the pst We may.
