R. Sherman, chairman of the drive committee. Very few refusals have been made to the appeal, these being people who had contributed large sums to the re- cent drive for a nurse's automobile conducted by the We-uns cluh, Five canvassers have reported that | they have never before met such en- thusiasm and free-giving spirit as has been displayed during their trips through their territory. Most every one who has heen solicited expresses the hope that the drive will be a suc- | cess and that Plainville will have a health assoclation, second to none in the state.
