APPEALS FOR NORE RED CROSS CONTRIBUTIONS Warden Halliday | Has Address- ed Letters to Reeves of the Townships: Jaapes Halliday, warden of Fron- tenac, has.addressed a letter to the reeves of tite municipalities of the county; drawing their attention to the fact that the Ontario Government is making another appeal on behalf of the British Red Cross Society for a contribution on the 19th Jnst., and urging them to put the matter before their people. . The warden suggests that, if possible, it would be well to form ladies' committees in different sections of each township, or interest organizations already in existence to make a personal "canvass. Each township council could supplement by a grant any amount procured in this way. "It is unnecessary," continues the letter, "to call your attention to the importance of this fund as the British drive has resulted in heavy casualties, making enormous demands on the Py Cross funds, and we should all 1 it a privilege to contribute some- thing to relieve the suffering of our brave, soldiers and sailors who are so manfully battling for the cause of diberty." ? The warden concludes his appeal by expressing the hope that the matter will have prompt attention and that Frontenac will make a generous sponse. Canadian Casualties, : Killed in action--Lieut. E. M.
