Skelton have just re ceived a letter dated October 23, from their daughter Ruby, who is a Salvation Army worker at Can ton, China. Because of the bombing and firing of Canton the foreigners took refuge in Chameen island in the river, a British possession which had foodstuff and fuel to last several months, but no vege tables or fruit. She says "There is not much sleep or res tfor any one all are in suspense. No mail except as it can be brought from Hong Kong. The Salvation Army is establish ing food kitchens for those who fled the country from Canton, also refugee camps." Men and women were fighting day and night to keep Canton's fires off the Island. The Army quarters and all buildings In Can ton have burned and the Army expects much relief work to be done when the Inhabitants return to find everything gone, homes, food, clothing and business. Canton is in a terribly lawless state of looting and burning and Japanese troops would almost be welcomed to restore order, she states. association by Mrs. R. O. Apple by, and the Mt.

No payments have lo far been made for maintenance. Only payments have been made for seeding. This, grangers felt rath er defeated the purpose of the conservation act, as It left a temptation to plough up the crops and reseed so that collec tion could be made again. The other petition was ad dressed to the federal communi- MOT to James Mariw reading, Ralph Har- cation committee requesting that Margaret Livesay, Patricia -Murray and Clifford Smith, Jean Howard and Leeanna Severson.
