English women to Canadian boys.\u201d Men Should Take a Hand.The speaker declared that Red Cross work should not be confined to women alone, but that men should take a living interest and become life members and take up some special line, and the boys and girls should be made use of with all their young energy.\u201cIn Montreal the Boy Scouts are doing splendid work in many ways, and from what I have heard I am sure the Sherbrooke scouts are active,\u201d said the speaker.The collecting of canes for soldiers, which had been carried out under the auspices of the Sherbrooke branch, was a most commendable movement | and she intended to introduce the idea, in her own branch when she returned home.Beautiful and very clear views were thrown upon the screen and explained by Mrs.Read, showing almost every phase of life overseas, from the different zones at the front, maps and diagrams of England, dotted with red crosses where there are groups of hospitals, the ambulances, the tired men, the stretcher bearers, nurses and doctors at their work of mercy, the blinded men at the hostel, one of the most pathetic results of the war, the magnificent places given up to the care of the wounded, and many others, equally appealing and 8timn|»t.:n\" t the hearers.\u201cEngland,\u201d Mrs.Read said, \u201cwas under a terrific strain, bearing not only the troubles of her own country but those of her allies.Five million women are doing the work of men and thousands more are toiling to the point of exhaustion as nurses, V.A.I).helpers, anything and everything that could be of service.\u201d \u201cCanada can do more\u2014must do Every worker should endeavor to interest and set to work two others, and thus three times as much could be done, and everyone should realize that the smallest effort is helping on the war of right against wrong and bringing nearer the time of peace,\u201d continued the speaker.A cordial vote of thanks was moved by Mrs.Jack Morkill, president of the Sherbrooke Branch of the Red Cross Society, seconded by Mrs.Jones, and unanimously carried, and the meeting closed with the national anthem.ganized tor the purpose of assisting the boys and girls to «ot only make money but to save money, also.The Government is calling on everyone to save, savj, and the Record has made all arrangements whereby any boy or girl can earn money for their own personal use, or for Red Cross work.Y.M.C.A., or starting a bank account.The best part of earning money all yourself is that you can spend it all yourself.It i a real comfort to have five or ten dollars coming in from the club to keep pace with the high cost join the Boys and Girls\u2019 Club.Just one question.Are you willing to do some pleasant, dignified work to earn it?Naturally, like everything else in the world that is worth having, the money is won by very pleasant profitable work.So if you, too, are in earnest, don\u2019t hesitate and»don\u2019t wait to ask how you can earn
