A rumo'r has been persistently circulated in many cities in Canada to the effect that the Canadian Red Cross society was guilty of a breach of faith with its contributors, by sell- ir.'; instead of giving supplies to soldiers. This notion is of course on (.he face of it awkwar.d and can give /_ little credence with intelligent , people. 11 has been officially and emphatically denied by ' Col. Hodgetts, the Canadian Red Cross Commissioner in England, and publicly contra- .dieted by prominent Red Cross officials in Canada, but the .rumour has a curious vitality an,d persists in croppnig up in unexpected places The Canadian Red Cross needs no defence from .such petty misrepresentations, but it is undeniable-that a suspicion that supplies are not given away freely might damper the ardour of many enthusiastic workers who are inspired to generosity, by its thought of the soldiers' pleasure when he receives their.gifts. There ,'s not much incentive to knitting if { the soldier who ultimately wears them, does so with a Grievance. The Red Cross authorities however have never been able to find any such soldier with an . authenticated that they had heard that supplies were sold, have neveT been able to produce any proof. The reasonable grievance. Persons who have stated inference is that no such proof exests. Any one making Red Cross'supplies can do so with the full assurance that the bounty of the Canadian public goes as a free gift to the sick aud wounded soldiers All reports to the contrary are either- misunderstandings or falsehoods. ; \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD (The above letter was received -i- ijriom the Head Office' of the Red Cross society at Toronto; and if any of our\" readers have any specific information in regard to the matters mentioned above they should communicate with the head office at Toronto.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDEd.)
