COMMUNICATION, To tho editor: I ought to lie en titled to Bpnco In your paper to cor rect tlio misleading nnd false state ments as to my attltmlo toward the Red Cross. I never at any time or at any place made a statement that any sensible person could construo an de rogatory to this grout society. It cm liotllcs tlio highest expression ot civil ization and humanity. Klnce the Christian nations am trying to exter minate each other, the work of the Red Cross Is the rainbow of promise that the teachings of Christ shall sur vive even the delugo of blood. ' The person who reported to the pa pers my recent remarks before- the school board perverted them appar ently with the Intention of doing me tin Injury. I am porfectly willing that tho virtues and wisdom of Dr. Porter and Dr. lilddoll, the new mcnibors of tho boardt bo advertised so long as the other members of tho board, -Including myself, are not misrepresent ed or stigmatized. I Toted and work ed for tho election of both these gcntloriien, and there Is no reason known to mo why they should soek to put me In a false light before the public. It is quite trtio that I opposed loan ing the sowing machines owned 1y tho school districts. Heforo I waH oloctcd a member, tho "board loaned theso machines to certain ladles t mako garments, etc., for tho French soldiers and people, and tho school district was obliged to pay po.Iin to put tho machines in repair after they wcro through with them. Against tho Imiv Tlio law does not permit tho board to loan or hypothecate any property belonging to tho district, and last your tho members of tho board unan imously resolved not to ngaln loan anything belonging to tho school dis trict to anybody. This was the reason why tho old hoard, including Mr. Pal mer, denied tho request of the Indies of tho local Hod Cross for the use of tho machines. It was, therefore, a surprlso when Mr. Painter, In rovcrso of his recent former action, and the two now mem bers, who ton minutes boforo had taken tho oath to support and ninln taln tho law, thus proceeded to disre gard It. I also confess to hovlng argued that tho garments, bandages and oth er articles used by tho Itetl Cross are mado In largo factories on tho Allan tic coast In proximity to the mills that supply tho raw material; that It seem ed poor economy to pay transport". Hon charges for carrying such mater lal across tlio continent, huylng it at renin price here, making it up by hand and again paying transportation chargeB back to New York prepara tory for shipment to Kiironn. It np pears to me that these ladies might to belter advantage employ Ihemsclv lit other vocations and contribute their earnings to the national organization which could make every dollar worth a hundred cents. Conti-Umtoil to ltol Cross Kven ill this -period of hysteria one should ho allowed to make a sensible observation without being sMgiuatiiied as unpaliiotle. mid "opposed to the Red Cross." I Inivo nindo contributions both to tho Hod Cross and the Y. M. C. A for war and betterment of the sol titers. I venturo my contributions amount to as much as those of either Dr. Porter or Dr. ltldilell. and upon authentic showing to the cntitraiy will mtliserllin mid pay as much until or mem hnvo contributed to date, V.

Articles and pamphlets telling how to can and preserve with and without sugar and how to dry or evaporate products of the garden and on-hard can be had on application to the department of agriculture. Pointing out that the ordinary harvest yield will be greatly increased this year by tho "back yard gardening" campaigns, Mr. Houston declared that not to conserve this valuable food surplusage would be "a sinful waste." "As the transporation pressure, of the railroads will become heavier because of large shipments of food for military purposes-, it is the duty ot all to endeavor to re lieve this condition by utilizing to the greatest extent all locally produced foodstuffs," says the secretary. "All any home should expect of others is the i'oods which cannot be produced effectively by its own members," he adds. - If you preserve at home, put. up more fruit than ever before, (let jars and glasses, bottles and crocks ready to save the fruit crop. 1'ut away dried vegetables. The Am erican housewife who practices thrift places herself in the ranks of t hose who serve their country. You can show your thrift in no 'more convincing way than by combating the national tendency to squander this country's wonderful fruit crop.

This forenoon thero wcro but five more cases to investigate. The one known caso so fur of where but one man of this county's mnny hundred young men or the prescribed military ago failed to register, was In Ashland. The young man disappeared the fol lowing day and his present where nbouts aro unknown. Sheriff Jen nings, however, has hopes of captur ing him In the near future. Of the many reported cases of slackers Investigated, all but this one proved to be groundless, the alleged offenders being either too young or too old. The Investigation carried the sheriff and his deputies into every part of the county. The tips for in vestigation came to tho sheriff per sonally or to other county officials and tho mayors of the various cities and villages of the county. for YOUR PROTECTION POST TOAST I ES are wax-sealed to keep them good !
