The work has been done entirely by jless than fourteen members, in fact, seven of the fourteen have done the |greater part. Our membership num- hers nearly, if not quite, one hundred | and fifty—so a very small percentage lof the members are workers. We know there are some who would glad- ly do their share and more, but are {unable to do so. But how about the jothers? Of course, the past’ weeks |have been very busy ones for the | housekeeper, but the faithful ones who have done this work, are, in almost every instance, housekeepers who have children to care for, but by special ef- | fort and sacrifice have been able to do | the work listed at the head of this ar- jticle. If they had waited until all | their fall work was completed or until |a “more convenient season” nothing ‘would have been accomplished. Sure- lly no need is so great, right now, as | Red Cross work. And now that our boys are in the trenches, we must _make still more strenuous efforts to do jour bit. Our boys did not wait until /it was convenient for them to give up jhome, friends and perhaps life itself, to make our homes safe, and preserve ‘our liberty. Surely the least we can do is to put in a few hours each week sewing or knitting in order that these! | boys might be madea little more com- | fortable while they are working for j us. Ifno boy near and dear to you is in the service, so much more reason why you should do your part here at home. Don’t be a slacker. The following clipping from the Pa. |louse Republican isa timely reminder: “The work calls for immediate ate | , tention and continued, unselfish effort. Now is the time to begin to give up ! | some time from some of our pleasures, | /amusements and even duties. It has jbeen repeatedly said of women that they are not qualified for duties or sacrifices which call for breadth of vis-! ion, because they cannot see or feel | | beyond their own immediate circle of |friends and family. Now is the time, for the women of this vicinity to dis- |prove that statement in its entirety | and show that they have a breadth | and depth of sympathy which extends, | not only to our own soldiers, but to the entire human race in its intense That their sympathy can develop beyond the mere sensation and | into real action; that they can and will | sacrifice their own pleasures, desires | ere jeutfonings | and duties that others may live. | Red Cross headquarters in the | Funke building will be open on Thurs- | day and Saturday afternoons only, un- |til further notice. Knitting is pro- All knitting to be of| | service to the boys this winter must , be completed before Christmas. We ‘are soon to start on “Comfort Kits,” | but the immediate need is material for | Christmas packets. gressing nicely. These must be | sent away by Nov. 7, at latest. Our} | auxiliary is to furnish fifteen, and | |more if possible. A list of things to | be put in these packets may be found jin the postoftice lobby, also Randalls | and Gauls confectionery stores. Please |consult these lists, and if you care to} |furnish a whole packet, or any article) | or articles to be put into them, please |leave the same at headquarters on ei- | | ther of the afternoons mentioned. The handkerchiefs are to be furnished by the Lewiston chapter, so we will need none furnished here. As the money for the packets can- |not be taken from the general fund, a tax of twenty-five cents has been lev- \ied on each member, and any one else who cares to contribute for this pur- pose is urged to bring or send this small amount immediately, as the packets must be made at once in order that they may reach the boys by Christmas day. , Several changes have been recommend- fuil “Six-55 ideal family car.
