THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY.

The' week beginning today will be known throughout the United States as Red Cross week—in which period it is proposed to complete a fund for the use of that order amounting to one hundred million dollars.

Canada has raised $16,060,000 for her Red Cross work, or about $2 for every inhabitant of that country. We are called upon* to contribute an amount per capita less than half of that and out of this great fund we shall extend the hand of friendly aid to our sorely •tried allies abroad. We shall, of course, if the war continues across the years, have to raise., and expend a great deal .more than the fund now called for— hut the immediate need must have immediate response.

The newspapers of America have a rare opportunity for service in connectlon with Red Cross week. The appeal for universal co-operation in raising 1 this great sum should be made at once, and stressed to the utmost. The person who :,may feel too poor to buy a Liberty bond may still be able to contribute to rthe Red Cross—and there is no possible use to which a dollar may be put which 2 can compare in service to this contrlbu-

tlon.' We have- a hundred million people— plus/ The desired fund means an assessment of a dollar upon each inhabitant. The head of a family should 'Bee to it that his contribution covers the assessment for each member of his family circle. If he can double the assessi^jent, he will have acted as proxy tor some other family which is under th'e pinch of privation, and unable to I

contribute.

«. The man. who can give a hundred dollars to the Reck Cross, during the -Week specially set apart for this collection, will have accounted for his

own obligation and for the obligations of nipety-nine others who cannot pos-

Sibly* meet them.

DUE NOTICE.

Ipfc..

Thjere are some people in business

br acting in the capacity of salesmen who 'think the bottom is going to drop }, but of everything in a business way because the United States is at war. (Such people are pessimists. They are the ones who "lose out," and they will -lose out this time, because the optimists are going to keep abreast of the procession arid beat them out.

The situation in the United States today Is precisely the same as .it wi ih Canada three years. Some of tne (Janadian.business men "quit cold" be ause they thought everything in a business way was going to the dogs. Others stuck to it, .and the fellows who 4' displayed optimism were the fellows to v* win out. That is because Canada to1 *ay. after three years of war, is more

""s^orotiR than she ever was before.

Bank deposits have increased, everybody has more money, and business is better. Now the fellows who "quit cold" are spending a lot,of money try* ing to catch up with the other fellows who stayed in the game.

And so it will be with the United States. This country is destined to the greatest period of prosperity it has ever known, notwithstanding the fact that It is at war. Added to the great demand for war ammunitions and supplies and foodstuffs which has come from the allies during the past three years, a demand which has already given the United States unprecedented prosperity, there is added the demand now of Uncle Sam himself and every industry in the country will be rushed to its absolute limit to supply that demand. Prices are high, to be sure, and they may be higher, and there will be more money in the land to meet the increase, more work and more wages for everybbody who is willing to vote extra hours to the labor.

Congress Is raising vast sums of money with which to prosecute the' war. Several billion of dollars is an incomprehensible amount. But what

It directly

or indirectly. The business man who looks at the thing in the light of cold dollars and "sense? will be the one who keeps abreast or ahead of the procession and will be like the "live wires" of Canada when the others wake up.

We are at war, it Is true, but there is „no eptcuse for business panic. Quite the- opposite.

RALLY THE FLAPPCRSt

Fifty-flve per cent of the women of the United States are "flappftrs," according to statistics, Mrs. Raymond Robins said yesterday, iu speaking In Chicago. In other words, nly fortyflve out of every hundred American women work for a living. "Fifty-flve per cent," Mrs. Robins said, "are in a class just above industry. They are a supported class: They do nothing In industry and da not enter the professions. Socially speaking, they merely exist. "We want to recruit the 'flappers' we want them to fill the places of the men who have gone to war."

A flapper, as defined by Webster, is a young game bird, especially a duck not able to fly well. '"Flappers'" said Mrs. Robins, "are women whose wings are yet untried, but who will And them in the service of their country."

The first real work for the regeneration of the "flapper" is now being done at the Hulman and Fairbanks homes under the auspices of the Red Crow. The treatment is efficacious and not hard to take.

81GN TODAY.

Three thousand Terre Hauteans in the churches of the city yesterday signed a petition to congress" to act quickly and give the people of this nation some relief In the matter of exorbitant prices of food. Federal legislation is the only cure for this, Effort to place the responsibility through investigators resulted in such scattered conclusions that the nation has been helpless and the prices of food have continued to advance with each publication of the market report.

Months have come and gone since

It will be

loaned abroad. What will become of that Why, it Will come right back to the United States to pay for supplies sent from here. That's what the allies want the money for. So there will be seven billions of dollars stirred up and put into circulation, seven billions of dollars worth of new business created, seven billiols of dollars of produce and labor bought from the American people and paid for. There will be Just seven billions of dollars more in actual circulation for actual business than there was before. Who will ge it? Why, every man, woman and child In the United States will profit

8traln lemon juice well before mixing and massage face, neck, arms, hands.

By all means, girls, pfepare a lemon lotion to keep your skin flexible and young looking. You will soon realize that true loveliness does not mean the powdery-look or waxen colorlessness of some hot-house flower, but is typified by the velvety softness of your skin, your peach-like complexion and rosy-white bands.

At the cost of a small Jar of ordinary cold cream one can prepare a full quarter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin softener and complexion bfcautifier, by squeezing the Juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white. Care should be taken to strain the Juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon Juice is used to bleach and remove such blemishes as freckles, sallowness and tan, and is the ideal skin softener, smoothener and beautlfier.

Just try it. Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make i*p a quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant lotion and massage it daily Into the face, neck, arms and hands. It should, naturally help to whiten, soften, freshen and bring' out the roses and hidden beauty of any skin. It is simply marvelous to smoothen rouch, red hands.—^Advertisement.

congress promised to give the people relief from the predatory horde of food manipulators, and when the president, upon a declaration of war, urgently requested authority to also make war upon this, phase of grand larceny, it was hoped that congress would not even hesitate to co-operate with him In this long, grossly neglected legislation.

After inexcusable delay a bill was introduced, but after it was shuttlecOcked In the house and senate for weeks while an outraged public was patiently waiting for relief, the announcement has been made that the bill has been reported for action,

Now let us tell our representatives that it is action and not words that we want. Let us tell these gentlemen that the necessities of life are paramount to the verbal contentions of some that the bill will "make a czar or kaiser out Of the president" and that they must awaken from the delusion into which they apparently have been lulled, that their constituents are not cognisant of the appalling condition of. the food question, and which is m&inly attributable to the criminal negligence of our legislators.

Some of the leaders In congress have sought to oppose the president in this matter op the grottnd that" it would give him "too: much, power." The rank and file of the people believe, that someone'.should have .the power and they are willing to trust Wilson.

The other day we remarked that there was but one man In the Clinton Jail and added that Mont Casey must have the situation well in hand. The one tenant was released today. Further felicitations.

German submarines are attacking Spanish ships along the coast of Spain and outside of the blockade zone. The kaiser' doubtless would say he doesn't mean to declare war on Spain.

"War portions" on the dining cars. Huh. That's nothing. We've always had to flght for enough to eat on a diner.

Letters From the People

Jane .Addams.

Editor of the Tribune:—The pacifist speech by Jane Addams, as published in your edition of June 11, calls for condemnation by every loyal citizen of this country. Not since Phoebe Couzens favored the return of the army canteen have the people of this country received such a shock. This is no time for sentimental gusli it is difficult to account for the rot Jane Addams handed out to her audience, especially when.we consider the conduct of our enemy from the moment they started the war.

I wish to tell Jane Addams this country owes nothing to any nationality any more than the protection she owes every loyal law abiding citizen. They come to this country in their own interest—that is, to reap the benefits of a free country. In regard to starving women and babies: Has Miss Addams forgotten how Germany starved »the Women and children of France in 1871-1872? I believe in administering to the Germans a full sized dose of their own medicine it may be the means of making them forget about that superior race stuff, and in course of time fit them to take a position among the civilized nations.

Would Abolish Golf.

Editor of the Tribune:—There are about 5,000 golf clubs in the country. At an average of 100 acres this means 500,000 acres of farm land hem out of use.

Golf incites to profanity,- lying about the score, wife neglect, inattention to business, Sabbath breaking and other vices.

Why not prohibit golf during the war? On the redeemed links 100,000,000 bushels of potatoes mi^ht be grown. This quantity would furnish 3,000,000,000 messes of French fried potatoes.

Professor Dumkopf, of Yale university, estimates that 8,168,432 footpounds of energy are dailji wasted by golfers. The same energy applied to hoeing corn would produce enough corn for 13,941,687,403 muffins.

Abolish golf during the war! DOCTOR COOK.

A Plant that Grows with the Times

About five years ago we conceived a tremendous idea—the idea of giving to America a soft drink such as it had never before tasted. A new kind of soft drink in flavor and in its cereal ingredients—a soft drink that should be nutritious as veil as delicious—-pure and wholesome.

The idea took root—it was cultivated, experimented with, tended with all the ca^e .and skill that science could apply.3 For four years this work went on and then finally about a year ago there sprang into being, Bevo—the drink triumphant*

Less than two months after its Introduction Bevo had leaped into such popularity that even our already largo facilities could not supply the demand.

The result is that soon will be completed (built by public demand) the largest plant of its kind in the world-—daily bottling capacity, 2,000,000 bottles.

Tuesday, June 19,1917.

Astrologers read this as rather a fortunate day. Neptune, Jupiter, and Saturn are all in benefic aspect, although their influence is ijiot strong.

The new moon of this date is a partial eclipse of the sun Falling in the third decp,n of the sign of Gemini it is supposed to presage the death of a ruler or king. Mercury, ruler of the eclipse, is conjoined with Mars, an evil omen of legal and religious troubles, libel, slander, fraud and forgery.

Many accidents in aviation are foreshadowed, while hospital and public institutions are likely to be damaged by fires and explosions.

Mars, ruler of the seventh house, is read as presaging violent warfare, desecration of churches, disasters at
