scarf lie turned in to head quarters i
last week. As Uncle Sam does not;
consider pink a suitable shade for his
grown up soldiers, we shall include it
in one of the little baby outfits we
arc making, feeling sure it will go a
long way toward keeping some little
body warm in desolated France or
Belgium.
Eighteen thousand (18000) babies
will be born to Belgian and French
mothers who arc too poor because of
the war to give them the reception
they should have. The fathers of
these new babies are either dead or
fighting. The Seward Chapter of the
Ked Cross has undertaken to furnish
10 complete baby outfits for these lit
tle ones within the next two weeks.
Already one week’s time at the work
room has been devoted to this woik
but the limited facilities as regards
sewing machines there makes the
work go too slowly, so the committee
asks for volunteers to make the fol
lowing articles at home: machine hem
12 diapers; make 2 simple slips;
little capes with hoods; bootees, jack
ets and little shirts. All such articles
will be all ready cut out and may be
gotten at the work room, or if you
.an not come there, phone Adams 44
and they will be delivered to you.
The report from the Seward Chap
ter to Division Headquarters for the
month ending Feb. 20th., shows the
output from the Seward Chapter to
be as follows:
Surgical dressings: Hospital sup
plies—1460 compresses 4x4, 120 com
presses l)xl), 25 irrigation pads 16x24,
25 triangular bandages, ‘>8 pairs hos
pital leggings.
Knitting—27 sweaters, 50 pair
socks, 10 pair wristlets, 11 helmets, 1
scarf, 1 hot water bag cover, 5 wash
cloths.
A total of 1871 different articles.
Madame Junto sent out ten pairs of
socks on the bust shipment, all made
between February 5th and 21st.
A thought for the devoted women
who are contributing to the Seward
Chapter as well as for those who have
as yet done nothing here.
Your devoted and untiring toil and
contributions in common with the
other women all over this land, aie
foundations upon which all that tre
mendous work for humanity and our
boys in Kurope rests. Lagging, fal
tering devotion on your part could
easily starve the work. Have you done
your bit?

FOR UNCLE SAM
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27. — Cato
Sells, Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
estimates that 5,000 Indians have en
listed in the American army and navy
and that the former American tribes
men have subscribed over one million
dollars to Liberty Bonds. Several
applications have been received from
Alaska from Natives anxious to join
the Colors for Uncle Sam.
MARQUIS OF LANSDOWNE
The pica of the marquis of Lang- ]
downe, former British cabinet member,
that the allies relinquish certain of
their war aims in order that peace
may come before Germany is thorough

nounced except by the Germans, who
Joyfully indorsed his suggestion.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 27. — !
Lieutenant Colonel Epplin of the Fouri
tecnth British Hussars, in an address
here last night, strongly urged moth
ers to encourage their sons to marry
before going abroad. “In England,"
he said, “we are doing every possible
thing to encourage men to many even
while on their ten days leaves at
home." Continuing, he added, “such
course must be taken if we want
children to be bom to fill the void left
by the thousands of deaths in the
British army during the past three
years."
The Colonel spoke under the aus
pices of the local council of defense.
