The wash rags were beautifully made, and as we have not been mak ing the comfort kits for the sailors we have taken the liberty of turning them over to the Red Cross or the Fund for tho French Wounded, ii either caso they will be sent where they will do a great deal of good.

DISPARAGING THE RED CROSS Anti-Patriotic Propaganda Being Comhalted. WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.

Wilson today telegraphed all Red Cross division managers to begin a nation wide campaign to trace the movement to its source and combat it. "It is evident that minors and in nuendos, critical of and 'calculated to embarrass the Red Cross are being industriously circulated as part of an anti-patriotic .propaganda," tho tel egram reads. "The Red Cross is be ing run as nn open book; it lias no secrets, it is making a sincere effort to serve mankind and is doing it as carefully and economically as it knows how. Its accounts arc to bo audited by tho war department and utmost effort is being mado to give publicity to all its activities."
