On consulting a coal dealer eeg'arcling availability of coal for lirtioder stoves, his advice to farmers was ,to procure their coal sup- ply no*. If Vit. COO is not available, purchase egg. or -furnace coal. While breaking up large Wraps of coal is not a pleaeant thought' it may mean that at least a supply bf fuel is available which will do the job. "In case Aim dealer has not got the coal, what ie next best thing for the Poultry farmer to do? "The impression given me of the fuel situation is that it is the nut coal that is so .ieared but some other types still are available. I would strongly advise procuring coal of at least some description to substitute if necessary."

Q.: Then why is the Canadian Red Cross sending parcels of food to Brit- ish prisoners of war? A.: Because the British Red Cross has asked the Cana.dian, ,Red Cross to share this great responsibility by packing and •despatching 100,000par- cels of food each week to British pris- oners. Q.: .Whet goes into a .Canadian Red Cross fabd parcel? A.: Here is a list of contents which are all (except the eoap) selected for their food value in proper proportions by a committee of food and nutrition experts: 16, oz. milk powder, 16 oz. butter, 4 4. cheese, 12 oz. corned beef, 10 oz. pork meat, 8 oz. salmon, 4 oz 'sardines or kippers, 8 oz. raisins, 8 oz, prunes, 8 oz. sugar, 16 oz. jam, 8 oz. chocolate,' 16 oz. biscuits, 1 oz. -salt and pepper, 4 oz. tea, 2 oz. soap. Q.: How much does a parcel cost? A.: The Canadian Red Cross esti. metes" that it coste approximately $2.50 to "lay down" each weekly food parcel in Geneva, Switzerland. This is becoming the greatest item of- Red Cross expenditure, and the hill would b,e greater if the Red Cross had to pay for the packing' of these parcels but fortunately, they are all packed by women voluntary workers. Q.: Does not the Red Cross send. cigarettes.' or tobacco -in its parcels? A. No. It would delay the ship- ment if these 'articles were included. Bulk shipments of tobacco and cigar- ettes are made to the camps by the British Red Cross at the rate ef 50 cigarettes or 2 ounces of tobacco per week .to each prisoner. Tobacco and cigarettes may also be ordered, from licensed firms of tobacco dealers and sent direct by mail by any individual or organization 'in Canada. sister, Oraee,AMelia, oldest daughter of Mr. end Mrs. Warren S,1i1tbe, Kippen, was 'united in marriage to Pte.

The topic will be "Chris- tian Education." Q,: How do the Red Cross parcels get to the individual prisoners? Is each parcel addressed to a prisoner? ,A.: No. These food parcels :are not personally addeessed. They are all uni- form in size and contents so that it is only necessary to see that there are enough parcels sent to each camp for each British prisoner to get one. -At Geneva 'parcels are put on trains or trucks with an International Red Cross representative in charge, and on arrival at the prison camp, they are giVen over to the British prisoner chosen as "spokesman" by his fellow prisoners. He gives a receipt to the Red Cross Committee for all parcels received and is responsible far seeing that each British prisoner, regardless of rank, gets a parcel each week -un- less difficulties of transportation make this impossible.

Your RED CROSS CALLS TO YOU Never has the need been so urgent $10,000,000 NEEDED NOW! YOUR RED CROSS appeals to you for funds to carry on its program of mercy; to continue vital war work performed by no other organization. Never has the need been so urgent. Helping to keep up the morale of half -a -million fighting men is a gigantic task, and that is only the beginning. The Red Cross makes life more bearable for thousands of prisoners of war. Over 2,000,000 parcels were shipped to them last year — more than this number must go in 1943. Our men in british and Canadian hospitals need Red Cross comforts and heartening visits from the staff of Red Cross "visitors". Red Cross help to shipwrecked sailors is essential, thoughtful, immediate. Homeltess war sirphans- our own kin and those of our allies -sick and starving men and women in many lands - millions in Russia, Greece and China and other peoples of the United Nations -need more food, medicine and comforts from the Red Cross. The need is world-wide; this year the cost will be greater than ever. The work mast go on. Obey the dictates of your heart; Open wide your purse and be generous. Reinennber, you are the Red Cross!
