AMONG THE CHURCHES
AN APPEAL TO RED CROSS
WORKERS.

The following letter was received by
Mrs. L. A. McCampbell, president OF
the Colored Red Cross Workers.
through Mrs. Heminway, from the
36Gth Infantry, stationed at Camp
Dodge, Ia:
The Red Cross has helped us ire.
mendously by giving this regiment A.
600 knitted sweaters, and l thought
you would like to have this memoran-
dunn. There are 1000 men here now.
almost all of the from Alabama, where
OF course the winters are mild. Three
thousand more come from Alabama
about the 18th of this month. The
cold is eXtreem here, IA below. and
it is difficult for the to keep warm
whe non fatigue duty, etc. The heads
and the feet are where they feel it
first. Ears are frequently frozen. II
any kind of a knitted helmet, covering
the head and ears, in fact every part
of head except the eyes, could be Sc
cured through the Red Cross it would
be a tremendous boon to these men.
They are patient and accomplishing
but they really suffer. There is such
a thing as an a~viator's knitted helmet.
which covers the head, everything ex-
cept the eyes, nose and mouth, but
it costs retail three dollars. If knitted
helmets cannot be secured, a broad,
knitted short scarf to wrap around the
head and ears and nose would be a
great help.

Tuskegee, Ala.-The bakery at the
Tuskegee Institute has been success
fully experimenting with sweet pota-
toes as a partial substitute in making
bread. This bread is composed of ap-
proximately two parts white flour and
one part boiled, mashed sweet pota-
toes. The result of the use of this
combination has been the saving of
about 200 pounds of flour each day
and there is no very apparent differ.
ence between this bread and the bread
which is made wholly of wheat flour.
The potato bread will be used eXclu,
sively at tn. Institute as a part of Tus-
kegee's program of war economy. A
booklet describing somewhat in detail
this experiment with sweet potatoes
has been prepared at the Institute.

ENTERTAINMENT
HELD AT JONESVILLE

On Saturday evening before Christ
mas at the auditorium in the knitting
mill building, the Baptist Sunday
school held it's festive Christmas exer-
cises. AS the Baptist church is at
present being torn down, in order that
new church may be built on the
same site, it was necessary to use an
other auditorium for the entertain
ment. The entertainment for the even
ing, Christmas cantata, was given
under the direction of the efficient
superintendent of the Sunday school,
Mr.. w. P.A Leister, Mrs. w. P. Leister,
Mrs. John 7. Scott and Miss Lucie
Littlejohn. The cantatta, in three
acts, gave many pleasing Christmas
songs, a view of the family who
anticipate the arrival of Santa Claus
and then the real Santa Claus (Which
part was played by Mr.. L. NJ. Chand-
ler)-carried the audience, together
with a number of little boys and girls
from the stage, down under the
ground to his own workshop, where
the lovely toys are in making for
Christmas, 1917. Life and mirth were
evident throughout the play, and all
parts of it were indeed we'll rendered.
At the close of the cantata the Off
GERS of the Sunday school, with the
assistance of several small boys, dis
tsributed boxes of candies, and bags
containing apples, oranges and nuts
to every member of the school and
to all the guests; a total number of
225 Sunday school students and about
200 other guests.
Seventy-five additional bags of
fruits were sent on Sunday morning,
through Mrs. w. w. Wood, to the
members of the Home department.
Mrs. Wood has charge of this large
branch of the Baptist work
Rev. L. M. Rice is the pastor of the
Jonesville Baptist church. 1t was
general regret to the Sunday school
that illness prevented him frdn en-
joying the Saturday evening exer-
cises.

with the repeal Of the conscription
laws and the defence of our funda-
mental American liberties.
THE council could also take up such
matters as the recent disclosures
about our hospital ships, the death of
two nurses from mishap and crooked
labor trials. Pitiless publicity should
be given to all matters wherein the
fundamental rights and interests of the
people arc concerned. While acting as
a prod and threat 10 the misrepre-
sentatives of the people, the council
might, by drafting bills and investigat-
ing fragrant violations of the Constitu-
ton, etc, furnish tangible assistance
to the friends Of democracy and lib
erty IN Congress
The pacifsts cheered the plan. A
committee was authorized to put il
into effect.

dent for the terms on which the Ad-

to Europe is not national defence, but
mixing in the quarrel of outside ma
tions. And if, as is suggested, con-
scripts can be compelled 70 work as
farm hands, factory hands, or in other
civil occupations, the Thirteenth
Amendment is not worth the paper it
is written upon. So the first duty of a
citizen who has been drafted is 10
