There was a large attend- ance. Samuel H. Davis, acting chair- man of the Red Cross chapter, presid- ed, and opened the meeting Wwith re- marks in explanation of the local work now in progress in the effort to put the- Westerly district well over the allotment of $25,000. The objects of the Red Cross and the incaleulable good work now being done on the battlefront and elsewhere was interestingly related in"detail by Thom- as F, J. MacDonald, of Providence, chairman of the speakers’ bureau of the Red Cross for Rhode Island. He said that the people all over the state ‘were up.and doing in the great work of the present week and he earnestly believed that per capita from Rhode Island would be the banner state of New England in the amount of mon- ey subseribed in aid and encourage- ment of Red Cross work. Sergeant Andrews, one of the detail sent back from Pershing’s army in Trance, to assist in increasing the Red Cross fund, was given an enthusiastic reception. Ha told of the good cheer brougnt to the soldiers by the Red Cross and that the work of the organ- ization that came undar his personal observation made the life of the soldier worth Tiving. He did not attempt ‘to tell of ali that was being done to al- leviate suffering and to bring jov to the soidiers at the front, and behind the Jines by tnese ceaseless worker: The Red Cross is everywhere, and next to the Stars and Stripes, is the dearest emblem known to the soldier. He said he knew it was the desire of ev- ery truc woman and man to do some- thing to help win this war, and aside from the direct bearing of arms. he knew of no better way to express pa- triotism than by generous subscrip- tion to the Red Cross. Sergeant An- derson modestly old of personal ex- periences on field of battle and wove into his nddress anecdotes to show that gloom did not prevail among young Americans who risked their lves to attain the results that are sure to come when this cruel war is over. In concligion he made an earnest appeal to the people of Westerly to give, and give freely ali they can to.ma%e the esent Red Cross campalsn a success, Bvery dollar given will tend | strengthen the boys who are mnow | over thers battling with the Huns, as well as the voung fellows who are to hecom= coldiers later.

Crandall, recently elected president of the Westerly Laymen’s league, prbsided at the,first meeting of the new administration, held in the First Baptist church. In his opening address he told of the effective work that had been accomplished in the past and urged the members to renewed endeavor. There was a short bu session and it was voted to contribute $10 to the Red Cross. The feature of the meeting was an admirable address by Rev. Clayton A. Burdick, pastor of the Pawcatucl Seventh Day Baptist church, regarding the purpose of the league and the work that was essential to achieve the aim of the league. He told of the zood work of the leagaue since its inception and that it was a good starter, an incentive to do even better work and more of it in the future. The meet- ing was open to the public and there was a large attendance. During a period of despondency, as the combined results of a recent seri- ous accident continued liliness and worriment over incidents of the war, and while suffering aberration of the mind, James H. Kenyon attempted a rash act which fortunately did not end fatally. Mrs. Kenyon left her home for a short time Tuesday, sband be- ing in bed. When She returned she found Mr. Kenyon seated in a_chair beside the gas range. A metal pipe had been placed over the ‘burner, the other end being close to Mr. Kenyon's nose and mouth, and he was inhaling the flowing gas. The gas was quickly turned off and medical aid was sum moned. Drs. Payne, Scanlon and_Pagan an- swered the call and Mr. Kenyon was restored to consciousness. He sincere- Iy regretted what he nad done and could not account for such an act, as state he had no desire to eng his life. Seventeen young men of the village of Pawcatuck left Wednesday after- noon for New London, there to join the increment of the Eleventh Connecticut senatorial district and proceed to Camp Upton. They were conveyed to the railway station in Westerly in_ the motor-driven fire truck of the P. S. Barber Hose company, several of the contingent being members of that or- ganization. There was a large assem- blage of relatives and friends the station, and amid cheers and tears the oung men were given an enthu rewell.
