Direct approval of the campaign for
the sale of Red Cross seals has been
given by the American Federation OF
Labor, according to an announcement

sis. At the last annual convention OF
the American Federation Of Labor a

the members of the Federation to
further the sale as much as possible.
The resolution reads as follows:
Whereas. The American Fedora
ton of Labor has in every possible
way aided the movement for the
study and prevention of tuberculosis
throughout the United States and
Canada; and,
"Wheras. The American National
Red Cross has been in the past and is
now making an especial effort,
through the sale of Red Cross Christ
mas seals, to secure funds to carry
on the war against tuberculosis, and
by means of the funds raised in this
manner has been able to do much ef-
fective work in this direction, there
fore, be it
"Resolved, That the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor give its endorse
ment to the movement of the Amer
lean National Red Cross, and encour-
age its members to further in every
reasonable way the sale of these seals

The moderately large hat of felt,

short ostrich tips forms all the trim

to be worn with almost any costume.
| We should beware of the "bare-head-
ed" fad that possesses some communi-
ties, as it is very bad for the hair.
Just now more caps for morning and
evening wear are made than for many
years. Nevertheless girls and women
ride about the city and country roads
with the hair unprotected and blowing
about to become loaded with filthy
dust. The hair Is naturally oily and
dirt sticks to it. Too frequent washing
makes it brittle and Injuries its texture
and color, yet there is no other way Of
keeping it clean except to protect it
/ from the dust laden air. In the country
one may wear sunbonnets; those cut
gracefully are as pretty as any head
covering ever made. In the city there
are well fitting soft street hats that
protect the hair and eyes. Mothers
should insist on their daughters wear
ing hats, or caps, to and from school,
as a matter of cleanliness. If this pre-.
caution is taken, the hair may be
kept clean without literally wearing 1t
out with washing. Once a month will
be often enough for the shampoo.

Porcupines are good climbers, and

food is scarce they nibble the bark
off young apple trees, and can destroy
