Who WOlV clouett to her and who loved hd! dearly. W attended the Armistice Dny , program laet Friday morning. Out of the'' four ) liundrod people thoro wo mlMed ninny of the bunlnosn and pro foslonnl inon of tho city. There wore vory fow of ,tlio Amerlafli Legion boys, practically no farmers or labor ing men and almost no chlldron. We saw a sprinkling of housewlvos, a few teachers, almost none of the respons ible young women and a fow old poj ple. It Hecmed as though most of tho audience was composed of friends of tho band and those who were taking part on tho program. With business houses closed and a holiday for labor it must have been n disappointment to those who put on the program, whon tho hour camo and tho houso was not full. It Is said that two thous and people paid 75c each to see the football gamo in tho afternoon and only four hundred could be attracted to tho morning oxccrclscs which were freo. What docs It mean? Wo aro temptod to urge aomoono ,to volunteer to help In tho lied Cross membership campaign. People aro taking out mombor'shlps pretty gen erally when solicited but so many people have had oxcmbcb when they aro asked to solicit that thoso In .ctargo of tno work aro goling dis couraged. Miss Anna Kramph Is in chargo of tho city campaign an'd tho .fact that she is leader should line up a strong cominltijo to back her up. But sho is met by this excuse a'nd that oxcuso and as a result she ftdopfl not havo enough helpers to koop things going. She Js not com- ,plainjng but if about forty ladleB 01 this city would call her up and offer ito give one half day each to tho cam paign; It would uiako her smllo so th'cy could hoar 11 at tho Slate Farm.
