To learn how to convert by subtle 
magic silver quarters into real dollars 
is a secret well worth going miles to 
hear. Manchester folk will have an 
cpportunity this (Friday) evening to 
learn just how the phenomenon may 
be accomplished and to have a part 
in its accomplishment. Miss Clara 
Winthrop, who served as a Red 
Cross nurse in France will tell of 
conditions in the hospitals in the war 
zone and will explain how far 25 
cents will go in purchasing comforts 
for the wounded soldier of France. 
Every quarter sent to France at this 
time is worth a dollar in securing 
delicacies so necessary in renewing 
the strength of the wounded soldier. 
All money for the fund is cabled to 
Paris each week and is used to pur- 
chase condensed milk, extract of 
meat, rice and hominy for gruels, 
sugar, cocoa, dried fruits, etc., none 
of which forms a part of the regular 
diet in military hospitals. The pro- 
ceeds of Miss Winthrop’s talk ‘this 
evening will go for the above fund, 
so everyone who attends will be do- 
ing a dollar’s worth of good for some 
soldier of France. A postcard pro- 
jector will be used to illustrate the 
talk.
