Miss Fairfax Answers Queries
DON'T MAKE THE ADVANCES

DON'T MAKE THE ADVANCES
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 am deeply in love with a young
man, very good friend of my broth
er's. l do not know whether my love
is returned. Would you think it
proper for me to tell him of my love,
as l usually have conversations with
him, or let my brother have a talk
with him? ANXIOUS.
You will be making a very grave
mistake if either you or your brother
tries to force this situation. What
you will probably succeed in doing
will be to estrange this friend of your
brothers and to lose the interest he
now shows in you. Why not wait un-
til he develops enough regard for you
to show it rather than thrust your
feelings upon him?

MILLION A MONTH
Will be Required of Americans to
Help Keep Belgians Alive
During the Winter
ASSOCIATED Press)

New York, Sept. 18-Believing that
the war will continue at least another
full year, the commission for relief in
Belgium announced today that it faces
the necessity of asking and soon will
ask the American people to give a
million dollars every month in order
to avert widespread sickness and
death from lack. of proper food.
To date the United States has con-
tributed an average of less than half
q million month, while the commits
sion's purchases in this country, thru
funds provided from other countries,
have lately averaged over ten mill
ions of dollars month.
w. s. Honnold, who has just arriv-
ed in New York to succeed Captain
J. F. Lacey as director of the COM
mission in America, after having
filed similar position in London,
says:
'If the children of Belgium and
Northern France are to grow to
healthy maturity, they must be pro-
vided with more food than is now
supplied to them, and to this end the
commission for relief in Belgium will
soon ask the people of the United
States to give at least one million
dollars monthly toward the cost of a
special meal which will be served
every day in the schools"

AID IN
MAKING AMMUNITION
Famous Porcelain Factory at Sevres
Enlisted in the Defense
of France
ASSOCIATED Pressl

Paris, Sept. 18.-The world-famed
national porcelain factory at Sevres
has suddenly been transformed into
part of the huge war machine. In
stead of making those dainty and
fragile statuettes and vases which
are the wonder of art collectors, it is
turning out "poteries de guerre," or
earthenware retorts and cauldrons
for manufacturing asphyxiating gas
and for all the various chemical pro-
cesses of producing high explosives.
Even the famous artists whose names
are associated with the delicate col
oring of Setres porcelain, are now ex-
ercising their art in enameling these
huge retorts so as to make them
more resistant to the>acids and chem
icals used in the war processes.
Early in the war, Mr.. Bourgeois,
administrator of Sevres, learned that
the production of high explosives fol-
artillery was falling short owing to
the lack of earthen receptacles capa-
BILE of treating the acids. He there
fore proposed to the minister of fine
arts, M. Dalimer, that the art work OF
Sevres be suspended and all its ener-
gies given to producing the recep-
tacles needed for powder-making
This was approved and soon the
transformation was begun.
Sevres has gone through COM
plete transformation, and is today
furnishing thousands of receptacles
of all sorts in which powder, explo-
sives and gases of all sorts are manu-
factured and stored. With staff
less than half its usual strength, the
production of Sevres is five times as
great today as it was before the war.
And besides the great quantity OF its
war output, the quality of its works
is making it a sort of expert school
for the engineers of the various pow
der factories. The chief workers OF
these factories now come to Sevres
to study the chemical methods en-
ployed in hardening clays and max
ing them more resistant to high tenn
perature.

THE AUTO TRUCK
SAVED A HOUSE

This morning about $3.50 o'clock the
fire department was called to the
home of Mr.. Henry Gordon on the ex-
treme south end of Orange avenue. On
the arrival of the fire apparatus the
roof of the kitchen, which set off from
the main house a few feet was found
in blaze. To reach the house it was
necessary to lay hose from South
Eighth street for a distance of 1900
feet, and it was only after hard work
on the part of the fremen, with both
chemical apparatus and water, that
the blaze was confined to the kitchen
with only about S75 damage.
This fire demonstrated the worth of
the new auto truck. When horses
were used only 100 feet of hose was
carried on the wagon which would not
have been sufficient to have reached
the house. The driver would have had
to return to the station and load extra
hose and the fremen say that the
blaze would have been beyond control
by the time the extra hose arrived.
The new truck, however carries 100
feet of hose, which gave the fremen
200 feet to spare, and allowed them to
save the house entirely and the kitch-
en- with only small loss.
During the fire Capt. Louis Keefe,
who was only short time ago severe
ly burned by the explosion of a gaso-
line torch at the station, and has just
recently been able to resume his post,
had his left arm badly cut by fall
ing window.

MAXWELL CARS
AID BILLY SUNDAY
The Baseball Evangelist Says that
Automobiles Make a. Bigger

Billy Sunday, the baseball evange-

bile in conducting his great religious
revivals throughout the country. Dur
ing his recent campaign in Kansas
City, Mr.. Sunday and his aides used
Maxwell Sedan constantly during
his stay in the Missouri city.
The evangelist was immensely
pleased with the service rendered by
his car. In fact, he was so pleased,
that he wrote an appreciation to the
company. His letter follows:
81 wish it were possible to have
every one generally understand how
much you have contributed to the sue
cess of the campaign here in Kansas
City. 1t would not have been posi-
BILE for me to speak as many times
and as many places but for the ex-
cellent automobile service you fur
nished.
"The cars have been dependable,
reliable and comfortable. They have
always been in order, clean, attrac-
tive, and we have had no trouble or
delay at any time. thank you most
heartily.
"I had no idea that a light, mex
pensive car could arouse so much ad-
miration as the Maxwell has done.
With best wishes for your continued
success and with kind regards.
Sincerely yours, w. A. Sunday"

OPTIMISTIC AS EVER
Mr.. r. S. Hall Believes the Silver
Lined Cloud is About to be
Turned Inside Out

This section of the country has seen
the worst of the distressful condi-
tions resulting from the war in Eu-
rope, and better days are here, accord
ing to Mr.. R. S. Hall, of this city,
whose interests put him in touch with
conditions in this and other states.
Mr.. Hall is highly optimistic, and be-
lieves the times will steadily improve.
The evidence is to be seen on all sides,
he says.
In an interview given represen-
tative of the Star, Mr.. Hall stated
that he expected to see a big tourist
season in Florida this winter, and
Ocala, he said, will get it's share. The
remarkably fine weather which was
had last winter has advertised Flor
ida as only first hand evidence and
word of mouth can, and many who
came to this state last season will re-
turn this season and bring their
friends with them. Although new
hotels and winter residences have
been built since last season, as re-
suit of the million or more tourists
that crowded the state, fears have al
ready been expressed of the inability
to take care of the crowds. this winter.
Mr.. Hall spoke of the large crops.
He spoke of the good prices for cot
ton, and turpentine. The citrus fruit
crop of the state will be a large one,
he said. The live stock industry, he
said, will be given strong impetus
by the establishment in Jacksonville
of the packing plant of Armour & Co.
