Raise $2,500 for Red Cross Making a belated start in the cam- paign local representatives of the Red Cross began today on the drive to raise 32,600 as Plainville's share of the $100,000,000 fund to be raised for ‘war relief activities. The local mem- bers of the ambulance corps of the First Regiment of the Home Guard have been selected to make the drlve. and Lieutenant L. H. Frost and Ser- geant Gage Kent are now receiving subscriptions. The campaign, which, is nation- wide, started on Monday, and as a re- sult most of the cities and towns in Connecticut have made a start on Plainville. Despite the handicap it is expected that the town will do its “bit” as usual and it is hoped that the $2,600 goal will be reached by Saturday. ‘The solicitors propose to make & vigorous effort to get the fund up to the desired amount and they. have' already approached several promi- nent citizens to get the subscription list started with substantial contribu- tions. The Trumbull Blectric com- pany has donated $150, and other manufacturers have also promised to give liberally to the cause. The money raised through the.na- tion is to be used for the Red Cross and the Y. M. C. A. camps, both of which will figure prominently in giv- ing ald and comfort to the young men who will shoulder guns in the cause of humanity. Plainville has never been found wanting when appeals of this char- acter have been made and during the present crisis the town will no doubt make a showing of which it can be proud.
