It came back with a new coat of paint and newly letter-|climbed ed, spic and i{nn for the end of the campaign wee! ot H?:Ern developed that the goed van- dal who caused its disappearance was none other than E. A. Warner. He didn’t like its faded out appearance, so, without saying aye or no to any- one, took it down, dolled it up and put it back in place again. What was a mystery is no longer one, and the Red Cross workers are pleased. BOROUGH TO FALL DOWN? Not If Red' Cross Hustling Canva Can Prevent! 3 That there ‘must be some tall hust- ling to put the Danielson district over the top in thé drive for $5,000 for the Red Cross was indicated Friday, when the report of Thursday's sub- .scriptions was given out and showed that they were less than $300. Instead of ‘discouraging the workers, however, this bad falling-of enceuraged them to go -gut and dig in-e¥en harder in their efforts to ring loose 1money to bring this distriet i s ‘honor list of towns of the state. Danielson can- to meet the standard set for it by the state organization. ~Other Windham j county districts are making records to be proud of and it is up to this district to do likewi: At least $1.500 remained to be raised when the' workers went at their task Friday morning and they realized that this sum will not be obtained unless everyone is asked to give does give and give liberally.

How much money would you expect jguess right in some cases and wrong in others—probably wrong in the case Ayer picked up from beside ghway in the northern part of phone message from a resident in the vicinity, asking that the man be taken away. When Sheriff Ayer aroused the man, a foreigner with a rich dialect, the fellow seemed fearful that he was to be arrested and pleaded not to be sent to jail. “de gotta de moneey,” -he said “and me wanta go home.” And thereupon he reached into his pocket” and forced some money upon - |the sheriff, whose chief concern at that time was to find out where the man lived and to get him there, Sherift Ayer eventually ascertained that the man lived in Goodyear, and he took the fellow thére in his car. After getting him safely home the | sheriff proeeeded to give the man back his meney, and was astounded on ex. amining a small roll of bills to find that the drunk had passed him out four- §1,000 bills, and three $100 biils, a total of $4800, as a little tip intend- ed to save him from going to jail.
