Trappers in this vicinity and in.fact those all ? through the Adirondacks report unusual success thus far this season and they prediet that winter of 1910-11 will prove a most profitable one for them.

They Have Been Plaeed on Sale in Lowville and Other Places—Facts Worth Knowing About Origin of the Oranization. Through the activity of the mem- bers of the local Anti-Tuberculosis committee Red Cross Christmas seals were placed on sale yesterday in many Lowville stores. From the headquarters of the Red Cross in Washington comes the report that the new seals are being printed at the rate of 1,000,000 a day and that already over 60,000,000 have been giv- en out to agents in all parts of the United States. The demand for these holiday seals is greater this year than ever before. Already several million seals have been sold to large manufacturing concerns and other business houses in all parts of the United States, and orders are coming in hourly. The outlook for selling 100,000,000 seals and thereby making good the slogan of the campaign, \A Million for Tu- beriulosis,\ is very bright. The attention of all users of Christ\ mas seals is called to the ruling of the postoffice department that these stickers must be placed on the j backs of letters and packages, j Saturday evening.

How many Herald-Democrat readers who have come to appreciate the noble work of the Red Cross know the origin of the organization? Dur- ing the Italian war of 1859, young Jean Dunant was traveling in that country. After the battle of Solfer- ino, he visited the field, and, seeing the terrible sufferings of the wound- ed soldiers who lay around untended, he, with the assistance of several peasant women, formed an a mbu- -l&njefr-. serviee, with its headquarters - i&-a> little church at Castiglionp.

Dunant was regarded by the hun- dreds of wounded as a miracle of goodness—little less than an angel. \The gentleman in white,\ was the way in which the officers spoke of him, as he moved around among the sick, his light clothing making him conspicuous on the field. His experiences at Solferino, where he saw that the willing hands of a few untrained helpers actually saved many lives, and comforted hun- dreds of others, inspired him with the grand idea of an organization— •\* the Red Cross. served.

Lowville Chapter\ Aims to Greatly Increase Membership List- Within Next Few Months—February Re- quirements Will Be Increased—One Enthusiast Makes Statement Notice has been given all members of the American Woman's league that February 1 the requirement for mem- bership will be increased from $52 to $100 worth of subscriptions. It is further announced that chapter house requirements will be increased the same date according to the following schedule: Class I from 25 members to 50 Class II from 60 members to 95 Class III .. from 100 members to 155 ,The chapter has been a hard-work- ing one and since April last there has been a gain of 47 new members, which is quite as good a showing as any other organization could have made in the same length of time. There is also a snug sum of money in the treasury toward the- purchase of a lot on which a chapter house will be erected. In referring to the subject recently a member of the or- ganization said: \After February 1 it will be harder than ever to increase the member- ship, as anyone can perceive. Must we, then, abandon the hope of secur- ing for our village the pleasant and commodious meeting place for its dif- ferent organizations which we have dreamed of, and must all of sacrifice of time and energy during the past year go for naught? \Or will our public-spirited citizens eome forward in this crisis, —-make their Christmas gifts from the publfc? •fcations' on our Class \A\ list'Sub- scribe for their own periodicals a few years in advance and swell our mem- bership to the required number be- fore it is too late? \A word as to the difficulty that seems to exist in many minds in re- gard to the need of a lot. A suitable building lot, cellar and free of incum- brance,, must be secured by the local donor. This is the procedure usually followed in donating a site for any public enterprise such as a library, church, public park, etc. The clause absolutely protects the local chapter, rendering it impossible for the chap- ter house to be put to any purpose other than for the exclusive use and benefit of the members. \These chapter buildings are beau- tiful structures. They are designed and the plans drawn by the most capable and competent architects possible to secure; the type of archi- tecture adopted is a distinctive one. \The buildings themselves are so arranged as to provide a commodious and comfortable auditorium or meet- ing pace, where, the members may listen to lectures and other enter- tainments or they can be divided in- to smaller rooms by the use of slid- ing doors, making them-available as meeting rooms -for clubs, etc. .The outer walls are finished in cement stucco with a beautiful pebbled ef- fect, the color and texture offeirng a harmonious background for trees, shrubs and flowers, and also furnish- ing a fine surface for \the climbing ivy to 'cling to. The decorations and furnishings of the interior of the buildings are in harmony with the exterior,. and are artistic in the highest degree.
