"I'm afraid that's all I can spare"
■
You're a regular, red-blooded, true-blue Ameri
can. You love your country. You love that flapping,
snapping old flag. Your heart thumps hard when
the troops tramp by. You're 100%!
You intend to—you want to —help win the war
in a hurry.
"Sacrifice? Sure," you've been thinking. "Just
you wait till they really need it." And you've hon
estly thought you meant that too.
But—look yourself in the eye, now, and search up and down in
side of your heart— did you mean it? Did you really mean "sacrifice")
Listen : You feel poor. This third Liberty Loan, the high prices,
the Income Tax—you've done your bit. You feel that you've given
all you can spare.
What? Then what did you mean? What's that you said about
loving your country? What did you think the word "sacrifice" means?
Surely you didn't mean; did you, to give only what you can spare ?
What about our boys who are giving their lives in the trenches?
Are they giving only what they can "spare" ?
How about those mothers and little "kiddies" in the shell-wrecked
towns of that war-swept hell: hungry—ragged sobbing alone?
Giving up their homes, their husbands, their fathers.
While we-—over here with our fun and our comforts—we hold up
our heads and feel patriotic because we have given— what ? Some
loose bills off the top of our roll. "We've given all we can spare!"
Come, come! Let's quit fooling ourselves. Let
us learn what " sacrifice " Let us give
than we can spare—let us "give till the heart says,
stop."
Every cent of every dollar received for the Red Cross War Fund goes for War Relief.
The American Red Cross is the largest and most
efficient organization for the relief of suffering that the
World has ever seen.
It is made up almost entirely of volunteer workers,
the higher executives being without exception men ac
customed to large affairs, who are in almost all cases
giving their services without pay.
It is supported entirely by its membership fees and
by voluntary contributions.
It is today bringing relief to suffering humanity,
both military and civil, in every War torn allied country.
It plans tomorrow to help in the work of restora
tion throughout the world.
A Vast Stage.
The largest stage in the world is
that of the Grand Opera house in
Paris. It is 100 feet wide, nearly 200
feet in depth and 80 feet high. The
height is measured from the level of
the stage to the "flies." The stage of
the Metropolitan Opera house, New
York, is 101 feet wide, 89 feet deep
and 77 feet high.
Dolly Dillon.
Dolly Dillon, denouncing dawdlers,
disdained dashing Dick Dereritt, deb
onair dancer. Dick, despairing, defied
decorum, dug ditches daily, duly dem
onstrating devotion. Dolly, delighted,
discarded derision, discontinued dis
paragements. Dick's diamond deco
rates Dolly's dainty digit.—Christian
Register.
Understanding.
More hate would be mellowed to
love by Intimate knowledge than
would regard to disfavor. A smatter
ing information is a treacherous pos
session. All it requires to effect
better relations between nations as
well as individuals is knowledge, and
more knowledge.
Stops Flag Wrapping.
The wind will not play pranks with
your flag if a soft piece of feather
bone, as used by dressmakers, Is run
through a casing of narrow navy blue
ribbon along the upper edge of the
field. The casing will never be noticed
if carefully done.
A Mutual Pleasure.
Mother —"Were you glad to get back
to school and see your dear teacher?"
Little Son —"Well. I—l was just about
as glad as dear teacher was to get
back and see me I"
No Time for Debate.
"Jibbes is the kind of fellow who
never makes a move without first ask
ing himself whether or not it will be
good for his health." "I saw him jump
six feet In the air yesterday to dodge
an automobile. Instinct probably told
! him what was good for his health,
without his stopping to debate the mat
ter."
Handy Scrapbook.
Have you a little blank book which
I you keep full of household sugges
tions, in alphabetical form? Much can
be gained when reading the papers and
, magazines if you clip out some of the
, suggestions which are worth while.
Paste them In the proper place In your
little book. It is more than worth the
trouble. —Exchange.
Plants Are Prolific.
If all the seeds of any one sort of
plant were allowed to grow they would
soon cover the earth to the exclusion
of all else. A single orchid plant pro
duced more than 10,000,000 seeds In
a season and many common plants, as
the foxglove, very nearly equal this re
markable record.
Welcome Punishment.
Ruth was very fond of going to her
; grandmother's. One day after she had
been playing with her little baby sis
ter a little roughly and her mother had i
reproved her for it, she said: "Why
don't you send me to grandma's, so I
won't hurt her?"
Taking All the Smell.
Dolly and Dick had saved their pen
nies and bought their mother a bou
quet. In carrying it home Dolly kept
smelling it constantly till finally Dtck
said: "There won't be no smell left for
mama when we gets it home."
It feeds and clothes entire populations in timea of
great calamity.
It is there to help your soldier boy in his time of
need.
With Its thousands of workers, its tremendous
stores and smooth running transportation facilities,
it is serving as America's advance guard—and thu*
helping to win the war.
Congress authorizes it.
President Wilson heads it.
The War Department audits its accounts.
Your Army, your Navy and your Allies enthusr

Left-Handedness.
No attempt should be made to teach
naturally left-handed children to us©
their right hands, according to P. B.
Ballard, inspector of schools of Lon
don, as it is likely to make them stam
merers. Mr. Ballard supplies the fol
lowing statistics: Out of one group of
545 left-handed children 1 per cent of
pure left-handers stammered, against
4.3 per cent of 309 being taught to use
the right hand. In another group of
207 the figures was 4.2 per cent and
21.8 per cent, respectively.
Plants on Defensive.
Though some plants assume the of
fensive and catch insects for food, oth
ers act on the defensive to protect
them from being used for food. This
special provision accounts for the pre»*
ence of thorns, spines, stinging halva,
etc.
From Lemons.
Process Invented by an Italian
chemist for extracting essential oils
from citrous fruits is said not to affect
the chemical properties of oils in
any way, and it is predicted that it
eventually will revolutionize the Indus
try.

Good-by Leather Shoes.
The leather shoe is becoming so exp
pensive that it will soon be out of
the reach of all but the rich; therefore,
according to Andrew H. King, writing
in Metallurgical and Chemical Engi
neering, its place Is to be taken by
shoes with soles of rubber and uppers
of canvas. The properly made
sole, into which ground cotton waste
and leather dust are incorporated, will
outwear two or three leather soles and
will not slip on wet pavement.
