CROSS NOTES
[ Tli«re Is no more comfortable place
In town than the Red..Croes room
thuae cold da^B. The women are
lg'ad to face the weather to spend
a few hours there. One worker
wp3 heard to remark, "I wish, we
nut every day—it is bo nice and
warm here." The classes in sur
gical dressings meet Monday and
Thursday afternoons and Tuesday
evenings. The knitting classes
m^et every Tuesday afternoon.
At th»e request of Mr. A. Relnert,
flu officer of the local Red Cross as
sisted In counting the cash at his
s'ore last evening. Tie sum of
$6.10 was givea by Mr. Relnert to
»be Red Cross, this being one tenth,
of the cash, sales for the day.
Ibe Red Cross calls upon the
women of tiio country to iknlt at
top speed until after January. The
3kagway knitters hope to have an
other shipment ready next month.
The following statement has been
issupd by Harvey D. Gibson, General
Mabsser of tie American Red
Cross:
"A story is being circulated to
♦be effect that sweaters, socks, and
other articles knitted for the Red
Cross are being sold, either to the
public In shops or direct to the boI
11 lev» This is emphatically not true.
No articles whatever, either knitted
or otherwise, made by Red Cross
wotkers and turned into any Red
Cross Clxapter, Branch, or Auxiliary,
or to any supply warehouse, are
Bold either to the soldiers or in
shoos.
• * •
Slio aid it transpire that an actual
InsiaLri' of tlio above character oc
curred wherein an Individual sold
articles after their having been
turned in to the Red Cross, such
ac-ion would be clearly in violation
of the fundamental law covering the
Red Cross, and we would take vig
orous steps to prosecute the of
fei-^ex. , ? .
• • •
"ThPre is no way to Prevent peo
Cl from making the same type of
articles as are produced by Red
Crrsa workers and selling them for
their own advantage, thus subject
in? the Red Cross to unjust criti
cism. Should they use the name
or emblem of the Red Cross in con
nection with such sales, however^
thov will be vigorously prosecuted."

"lhis is what tha Dec. Red Croes
MsfacUa says about the Red Cross
chaia prayer:
Another constant visitor is a
postcard containing a short prayer
to be said for nine days and sent
to eiue friends for them to go and
do likewise! If this is done some
great nappiness is to be expected;
bu^ if It is not—well nothing is
threatened, but a lot left to the
imagination.
"What shall i do with this?"
writes a subscriber, "and hfls the
Red Cros3 sanctioned such a, chain?*
The answer to the first question is
easy. Do as we have done—and
will continue to do—throw }t in the
w*gfe paper basket. The answer to
the second is likewise simple. The
Red Cross has never sanctioned suchi
a chain prayer and no doubt never
will.
The Handy Man.
The "jack of all trades," known fa
miliarly as the handy iuan, is a seri- ,
oils drawback to the industries of the
United States, because his knowledge i
and training are not l>aseil on the funda
mental rules of any craft. Such men
are the bane of any industry, and more
especially of high grade machine shops,
for their work cannot lie relied ui>on.
Doubtless it is a good thing to know
something about everything, but the
perfect mechanic and high grade fore
man is the man who knows everything
about something.—George \V. Bowie in
Industrial Management.
A Good Trick.
Dashaway—You say your sister will
be down In a minute, Willie. That's
good news. I thought she might refuse
to see nie, as she did the other day.
Willie—Not this time. I am mad at
her and I played a trick on her. Dash
away—What did you do? Willie (tri
umphantly)—! said you were another
fellow!— Pearson's Weekly.
An Undiscovered Best.
"Are you getting well paid for your
work ?"
"No. That's why I'm not doing my
best work. Seems to me nobody ever
is willing to pay enough to And out just
bow good I can be." — Detroit Free
Press.
Misplaced.
lie—At the club a motion was made
to buy a handsome velvet carpet, but
it was laid on the table.
She—What a queer place to put a
velvet carpet!—Baltimore American.
Small Waist.
"The Idea is for every housewife to
make the waste as small as possible."
"Well, they can't beat my wife for
tight lacing."—Kansas City Journal.
FLIGHT OF THE MOSQUITO.
The Malaria Laden Pest Rarely Travel*
More Than a Mile.
There Is a good deal In modem
prophylaxis iu taking care of tb« mos
quito, but It la always a feature In tim
ease to know how much territory must
be covered to nssir.6 a reasonable a*
gree of safety. If mosquitoes were
like birds, capable of outdistancing ft
railway train and for scores of mlkk,
the problem of oiling the ditches and
ponds would be a very serious on#,
and the qnefsflon of careless neighbor*
would be u very wide one. The prac
tical limit of tlight of Anopheles quad
limaculatus, the insect selected for the
trials', proved to be about a mile.
The method used by these Investiga
tors ia their experiments Was to sta)n
mosquitce.- a;:d fepo.'t on their recap
ture after being K'je:*n!cd. The species
in question was selected -for the work
from the fact that It Is the moat vigor
ous flier of its group -and Is probably
the principal eariiw v( ma!arh». fl?he
result of the research suggests that at
the distance of a mile and a little bet
ter from a prolific breeding place the
individual is quite safe, and his efforts
need be directed only to the nearer
pools. '
The mosquito apparently required
three days for the Journey aud In some
instances returned to precisely where
it was caught, for the specimens were
oftentimes carried to o common point
before being liberated, but were col
lected iu places where they were quite
abundant.—Public Service Health Bul

JOHN IS A GREAT NAME
Known In Nearly All Land*, ft Hat a
Famous Family Tre*.
The name John la one of our best,
also one of our oldest. It is found la
nearly all languages, and no mattet
how disguised, from Juali to Johannes,
It is almost certain to be identified.
The Johns have a magnificent family
tree.
There was an apostle named John
and also u John the Baptist. There
have been twenty-two popes and on*
inti-pope by the name of John. Three
kings of Aragoa nnd Castile, one at
east of Bohemia and several of Portu
gal, France nnd England have borne
:be name of John.
There was John Bobieski, the "great
»st of the i'oles." There was John, sur
iamed Lackland, who was forced to
sigu the Magna Charta. There was
John the Cood. Ituniilng down the fa
mous list, we Und nl;:o John the Fortu
late. John the Perfect, Joliu the Fear
ess, John the Constant.
Then there was Jack of Ihe Bean
Stalk, also Utile John, who was not
little, but who, on l!:e miliary, was
:all and strong, and who was one of
:he most Impudent followers of Itobhi
Sood.
If old King John cave England the
Uagna Charta John Hancock helped to

If the spider remains Inactive it is a
