Davison Will Tell County How Red Cross Money is Being Spent
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. So that the people of the United States may know Just how the $100,000,000 war fund of the American Red CrosB is being spent. Mr. Henry P. Davison, chairman of the Red Cross, and Mr. Harvey D. Gibson, its general manager, have just started on a nation-wide speaking tour. On this tour they will meet with representatives of the Red Cross chapters, and with audiences who have contributed to Red Cross funds." Their itinerary includes St Louis, Kansas City, Denver, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, Portland, Spokane, Minneapolis, Chicago, Cleveland and a number of other cities. Commenting on the purpose of the trip, Mr. Davison said: "The Red Cross membership has Just become more than four million, included in that membership are hundreds of thousands of American women who are knitting, making surgical dressings and comfort kits. "The Red Cross war council is seeking to render an account of its stewardship to the American people in the most effective manner possible. It is giving frequent announcements of its activities, and every fact concerning the work of the Red Cross is available to everybody. We now wish to go a step further and give a detailed account of our stewardship, as well as advise with Red Cross-workers and supporters throughout the country as to Red Cross policy and methods. We have felt that this could best be done by appearing face to face before audiences and representative citizens', telling the Red Cross story, answering questions and ourselves gaining a more complete knowledge of public sentiment. - VWe are extremely anxious that the people at large should be fully informed as to the methods and policies adopted in handling the great fund with which the Red Cross war council has been entrusted and also that all policies and activities at the Red Cross should be in accord with a fully : informed public sentiment. "The purpose of this trip is not to solicit subscriptions or to take collections, although we expect to give to
mmmm FISH UTILIZED BY CANADIANS By Charles Davidge Hemming. In reply to a letter inquiring how food stuffs were regulated in Canada, Victor Ross, financial editor of the Toronto Globe states the Food Control ler, W. J. Hanna, has materially de creased the consumption of exportable food products, such as bacon, beef, and white flour by the introduction of sub stitutes for the foods. Sunday was Food Conservation day in the churches here and this is Food Saving week, so it may be interest ing to know that the Canadian Food Controller sometime ago arranged for a daily shipment of sea fish by express trains from both oceans to the center of Canada, and has placed under con trol the fisheries in the great inland lakes of Canada. The result has been an enormous increase in the consump tion of fish. Meatless and wheatless days are generally observed, writes Rosa. A typical action of the controller was the regulation which eliminates the waste in packages of breakfast foods, cereals, and cereal products, prohibiting the sale, after a specified date, unless licensed, of such food in original pack ages of less weight than 20 pounds. In special cases the Canadian Food Con troller may license the sale in smaller packages if necessary in the interest of the public. A fine of not leBs than ten dollars and not exceeding five hundred dollars or imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months, or both fine and imprisonment are provided for viola tions of the new regulation. the American people the latest advice we have received as to conditions in France, Russia, Roumania, Italy and Servia. v "Our reports indicate that the American Red Cross has an opportunity to lend a helping hand and to carry a practical message of cheer to suffering' humanity such as no philanthropic undertaking in the history of the world has ever had before." " Collections to the war fund of the Red Cross up to October 1st amounted to $64,424,232.90, of which $6,269,566.57 has been refunded to chapters to provide for their own-Red Cross activities. Up to that time the war council had appropriated from the war fund $26,080,870.41.

Heart and Home Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) I am in high school and there Is a very nice boy that sits near me. He seems to notice me. How can I get acquainted with, him and not be conspicuous? (2) I have a girl friend that is very popular, we, are the ' best if. friends and I would like to give a party for her. Kingly - give me some suggestions. (3) Kindly tell me whether it is ail right, to write notes to boys in school. FRESHMAN. (1) Do not try to get acquainted with the boy. There Is no way of doing so of your own accord jar -y ing forward and until some occasion arises when he . asks to be Introduced to you . i (2) Some afternoon invite a few of your friends over to your house for; tea. Now that girls are doing so ' much knitting and sewing, you might tell the girls to bring their knitting. You might even have-a card party, or have a musical entertainment of some kind and you will find that when you get together the girl3 . will find plenty to keep themselves busy. You ought to serve some refreshments later in the afternoon, such as cocoa and cakes, tea, or something like that. What you serve will depend on what you can afford and what you have time to prepare. ; Answer to Faithful Wife: If you; are really doing all ydu can to make your home pleasant, there is not much: more you can do in that line that ; will make an impression on your husband's disposition. He evidently does not find it so pleasant at home or he would not spend his evenings out. When he does come home, instead of being huffy 'and cold to him, as ; you say ou have been, try to show him that you love him, but do not sympathize with his wrong doing; show him that it isn't hurting you as much as himself, v Instead of trying to make your husband see his mistake, you should pay more attention to your own attitude. Probably it is this attitude of reproach that he dislikes. No man likes to be reproved for what he does even though he knows he isn't doing right, if your reproaches haven't, done any good, stop them and try something else. I think your idea of going away with the children is good. , If you can take the children out ohce in a while in the evening when your husband has been staying out, he will begin to see that in order to keep you he must mend his ways. At any rate, it won't hurt to try it, because perhaps that is just the reminder he needs. Dear Mrs. Thompson: J have a salary of fifteen dollars a week and I want to increase this to something more than-1 get now. A friend of mine who works where I-do is taking a correspondence course and he is nearly through with it. He has been trying to get me to take it and I don't

! New Vocation For Girls In.New York
s - , xcz J
Would-be subway guard practicing on one of the cars of the B. R. T. NEW YORK. Oct. 26 Women here have usurped the places of men in a new line of work. Girls are in . training as guards in the subway. Officials of the B. R. T. have promised that within a few days they will have fifty of them working as guards on the trains operated over the Fourth avenue tracks in Brooklyn. And it won't be long before another fifty and then another and another will join them, until the old warning "Watch your step!" will no longer be shouted In stern tones by gruff-throated guards, but shrilled down the platform in soprano voices. And even the most weary Brooklynite hurrying home or officeward cannot resent being prderea to watch his step when he is asked to do so by a charming girl who be stows on him a smile as she calls out the warning. The women will receive the same wages as the men guards at present employed on the B. R. T. subway. Their work will not call for any great manual labor, as the doors of the subway cars are air operated and it is possible for the guards to open, and close them by merely pressing buttons. .The first fifty girls are devoting most of their training hours to memorizing the. names of stations . along the route of the subway and toward think that 1 know enough to do so. I stopped school when I was in the seventh grade and. since that. time I have done no studying at ail, but just work in daytime and. read books and papers at night , and once in a while go to church. Do you think I could get any good from such a course? I am a clerk, but I want to be a lawyer. HARD WORKER, Yes, I think that your evenings might much more profitably be spent studying than in reading magazines and books and papers. It would be well, however, to inquire of the suDerj intendent of schools to see if there is j not some kind of night school being held in the city. Correspondence courses are not beyond your understanding, and if . you could give an hour or two a night to study you could j soon make something of it You have ! had enough schooling to be able to j get a. lot of good from a course. New Skin Peeler In Great Demand Since the discovery that mercollzed wax possesses remarkable absorbent powers when applied to the skin, the demand for It as a complexion renewer has been tremendous. Druggists In every section report sales ae far exceeding; those of anythingsimilar they have ever had on their shelves. . Ordinary mercolized wax gently peela off the devitalised cuticle, in minute particles, so that the user gradually loses her old worn-out complexion, the more youthful nnder-skln taking its place. Cutaneous eruptions, blotches, moth ! patches, liver spots and freckles are of course removed. at the same time. As the wax is entirely harmless, and easy to use, women all over the country are purchasing it in original packages and using it to quickly rejuvenate their complexions. The was is applied the same as cold cream, allowed to remain on over night, then washed off with warm water. Adv.
