Red Cross Booths Begin The campaign for the Norwich quo- ta of $40,000 for the American Red Cross second war fund is humming in every department, and while the re- turns from all sources are incomplete at this time, in the opinion of the general committee the progress ‘to date is most satisfactory, taking into con- sideration the handicap of stormy weather. With only four days remaining in which to fill the Red Cross war chest, and make it Tun over, it means a gen- eral speeding up all along the line so that the goal may be reached at the earliest possible time. Team mem- bers collecting in the business dis. tricts, workers in the house-to-house canvass, the committee in charge of the canvass of industrial plants, and [the hundreds of other agencies that being employed to raise funds, are right on the job every minute in the day and are zetting results. 100 Per Cent. Efficient. Subscriptions are being received of all sizes and the small subscription erom those who cannot afford more is just as welcome ag. the larger dona- tions from those who means will per- mit them to give more liberally. Many of the industrial concerns and mer- - | cantile establishments are reported as being 100 per cent. efficient, which means that every person interested in that concern, employer or employe, has made a contribution to the Red Cross fund, either small or large, according es.|to their financial ability..

At the close of the second day of the campaign, Secretary of War Ba- ker issued this message to the: ma- tion in behalf of the Red Cross War Fund campaign. “Every battlefield in France speaks cloquent testimony of the merciful work of the Red Cross. If the yoice of the American Expeditionary Force could be heard there would be no doubt concerning the responses of the United States to the second war fund campaign. The terrors of battles are decreased and the horrors it entails are minimized by this greatest of re- lief agencies. No support which. the American people give to it will be misconceived or misdirecte Contributions of Children. One of the inspiring features of the campaign is the interest that is being displayed in this work Dby the el dren of the town. At the May-day fete held last Saturday Agmes Kitroy, 155 Cliff_street, a six-vear-old girl, realized 51 cents from the sale of pic- | tures drawn by herself, which amount | sbe proudly turned over to the treas- urer of the committee. The sum of $3.05 was reported from the smalier children of the High street school, that sum having been raised by folk danc- ing in the neighborhood of the school. Red Cross Booths. W. F.

When seen Wednesday evening by a Bulletin representative, Chairman Learned said: “The scope of the Red Cross campaign organized by the Nor- wich chapter is so widespread and its plars have been worked out so thoroughly that few individuals, firms or corporations will be overlooked and most will De solicited many times, as we hope no one will be offended if they are asked mora than once be- cause that is unavoidable under the system.” “But,” said Chairman Learn- ed, “We earnestly hope, also, that no one will be offended if they are not asked to contribute.

In speaking of the progress of the campaign Chairman Eben Learned said: “The general committee is more than pleased in this campaign. Men and women, are giving to the fund, not once, but several times and each time they give they feel better for the gift. There are some who could give more than they have and¢we feel the . than they have and would not fecl the pinch at all. And there are still oth- ers who have given absolutely nothing because the appeal of the Red Cross has not_touched them. A contribution to the Red Cross is simply a regis- tering of one’s ability to feel. Though if it is not as a sacrifice—it is a mil- lion times removed from a sacrifice. 1t is a privilege. We, in our comfort and security, are privileged to perform an Act of Faith in the human race, an<Act of Hope in its future, and an Act of Charity towards its present. Agony—all in one. Who is there dares to refuse to do their share to keep this “Hand of Mercy” at its work. A supreme test is presented, and true to its traditions I believe the people of the community will not fail in the crisis?” FUND 18 RAISED TO TOTAL OF $16,530.92 Work of Wednesday Kept Money Coming in For Red Cross.
