"The last money I saved I put in the Graham bank and it blew up. so 1 want'l'ncle Sam to take care of this." said William Roberts, 1S12 South Hamlin avenue, Chicago, as he walked into the rooms of the women's committee of the Liberty Loan and planked down fifty dollars and asked for a bond.

We are told that in all probability a short time hence will see another raise and that railk will be selling at 13 cents a quart. In tacking cn three cents a Quart to the prices, without even giving tha people fair warning, they -would like to knowr why tie three-cent raise. The farmer wears that lie doesn't get it. Who does? Consumers realize, of courBe, that thero are millions fewer dairy cows in the land; that feed is almost prohibitive in price; that labor is advancing, but when they are hit three cents a quart more for a necessity like milk to add to somebody's profits, it makes thesa restlvo under the collar. They must learn, however, that they can get relief in one way and that Is to cut down their nupi'ly. Cream is eo costly that the use of it can nearly be eliminated altogether. Consumers must face tho fact that this Is vir time ami that if it lasts two years longer they will have to get along without a lot of things now classed as necessities.

that the city of Gary was very thoroughly canvassed in that loan. That ought to encourage Chairman 11. C. Hay and his hustling aides. The whole country was prutty well canvassed, too. This Is no 'eason why the second Liberty Loan should not be a sucoes.n this timn in Gary as elsewhere. But if all American newspapers expressed fears about the success of the loan because each town "was very thoroughly canvassed" before, wtiere do you suppose this country would get o"? This is no time for weak fisf.ers to be having grandmotherly fears, or drawing the ruie ptrinss when tuen are laying; down their lives. Why should anyone think that the community will be niggardly beoaus it was generous before? If what THI3 TIMES can do in the way of hundreds of dollars worth of advertising, for which It will not ask a cent, and which it is going to give, will fee cf any aid then let it help, In the me.-'nttmp we'll bet ihe people of Gary viil be more generous than they weio the last time.

IT seems that Senator La Follette's right name would be more fitting if it were Von Follette.

WOMEN farmers insist that men be drafted to aid 'em. This is a bad precedent. They'll be demanding next that men be draf'ed to marry 'em.

FIGHTING for lower gas, water and electric light rates and working to get the people of Gary a sma.l strip for a bathing beach on their seven miles of out-of-town-owned lake frontaee are some of the good thinjrs Mayor Johnson is aiming to accomplish.

who aaw service in the Spanish-Ameri

can war, has been appointed to General Pershing's MafC. and the whole Red Cross campaign is being conducted with a view to the fullest co-oreration with the wishes and policy of the American commander. The Red Cross has perfected plans to care for each contingent of troops as they land. On the route from the reception camp to the training camps, a journey which Fometimes takes 72 hours, owing to the congestion of the French railroads, there have been established mx infirmaries anJ rest-stations, each in charge of a trained nurse and an assistant, to care for soldiers who

are ill on the way. When the men reach ramp, the Red Cross will continue to act' as a friendly agency to supplement what the Army itself does to make the men comfortable and to preserve their morale. Cigar

ettes to the number of a million and a J half. 20.000 packages of smoking toj bacco and 10.000 cuts of chewing to

bacco have already been sent, to trance for their use. Ked Cross chapters are now working up a million pounds of knitting wool into garments for tne use of both soldiers and sailors this winter, and will keep the men supplied. At the railroad stations where soldiers will be waiting for train connections, as soon as the routine of alternate trench duty, reserve duty and leave

begins, the Red Cross has arranged to provide canteens where they can rl themselves of the filth of the trenches

and eat, sleep or amuse themselves in comfort.

Before the first contingent sailed the

men were given comfort kits, each containing heavy socks, handkerchiefs, wash-cloths and soap, pencil and writing paper, a pipe and the makings, playing cards, a mouth-organ or game

buttons, rins and other small articles.

Further gifts will be sent over in time for the Christmas celebration at the

front.

Fullv organized base hospitals, pre

pared for any emergency that the ex

peditionary force may meet, are now in France. These units were recruited by the Red Cross. The surgeons were drawn from the cream of the medical

profession in the Fnited States: the

nurses were especially selected for' their fitness for this duty from those who had been enrolled in accordance with rigid requirements, by the Red Cross. Thirteen thousand thoroughly capable trained nurses aro now enlisted ' for such services as may become necessary. Hospital supplies, drugs and instruments have been sent to France, and

additional consignments will be shipped as they are called for by Major Murphy. Some of them will be made in F rance at workshops which the. Red Cross will maintain. Through the Red Cross chapters and the Surgical Dressings Committee, now affiliated with the Red Cross, hospital garments and dressings are being -made continually in this country and will be forwarded to France as needed. Dr. Edward T. Devine. director of tha New York School of Philanthropy, recently sailed for France to study meth

ods of restoring to self-support and usefulness men who have been crippled or blinded. A Red Cross Institute, for which Jeremiah Milbank of New Tork has given $50,000 will be cstablis) ad in New York in accordance with the results of his investigations. If Americans are captured, there is a Red Cross Bureau already organized at Berne which will maintain communication between prisoners in Germany and their homes in the t'nited States, and will forward the supplies and foodstuffs which th men In the German prison

camps will need.

Notwithstanding the fact that cameos have

been a popular setting

for fine jewelry - for many years, they arc probably more popular today than ever before. This may be d u e somewhat to the scarcity of good cameos on account of the war. We were fortunate in securing a largo quantity of cameos that arc decidedly better than the average cameos offered today, and these may be had at very reasonable prices. Jo tie E.
