the nearest Red Cross center, as do-

ters and other users of tin will then
purchase the lots thus collected by
the Red Cross at the market rates.
It is estimated that this method will
recover some 3,000 or 3,500 tons of
tin per annum, and bring the Red
Cross an added income of from $4,-

Canteen Sugar
Sugar is exceedingly short. Tf not
stringently conserved, the supply will
be exhausted in a few months, even
for our troops and those of our al-
lies. It is estimated at present that
more than two pounds per month per
person will overdraw our national
sugar supply. This must apply to
our soldiers and sailors when not re-
ceiving their rations from their own
service. It can be readily seen that
if smal waste were allowed in the
suprt'y of each one of so many mil-
lions, the aggregate loss would be
enormous. AtA this rate, one pound
of sugar should furnish the entire al-
lowance for 45 meals. Please ar-
range your plans acocrdingly. When
serving coffee, tea or chocolate, the
strict allowance of one teaspoonful
per cup should be adhered to. Please
protect the reserves of our boys for
the future by every device within
your power.

RESOLUTIONS
At the meeting of the Executive
Committee of the Cleveland county
chapter of the Red Cross held on
Thursday, October 23, 1918, the fol-
lowing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, in the death of Miss
Eloise Eagleton, the chapter is called
upon to mourn the loss of one of >'ts
most aetive, devoted, and earnest
members and workers:
Therefore, be it resolved that we
feel that words are weak to carry
and convey our appreciation of her
work in this organization. She was
ever an inspiration to her co-work-
ers; her charming personality, wom-!
anly attributes and high Chris ti..n"
character being such as to animate
all with whom she came in contact
with her own conscientious devotion
to duty. She was an untiring work-
er in the cause of humanity, and to
the work of the Red Cross gave her

To All Grocers, Dealers and Con-
sumers of Sugar:
We received word this morning,
notifying us that a new sugar rule
governing the allotment of sugar to
all householders is now in effect, and
will remain no until further notice.
"The household consumer will be
allowed three pounds of sugar for
each member of his or her family
per month, and will be permitted to
buy an entire month's supply on this
basis. The same ratio will govern
the consumption of sugar for public
eating places."
Merchants are also requested to
obtain the application for the
month's supply of sugar from the
householder on the sugar card as
heretofore, and report the same on j so that'it appears therein
the weekly report sheets to this of-1 different days of ^ issue ^before

This is necessary for the purpose
of avoiding "repeaters."
Respectfully yours,
