ALL PERSONS
Must Sign Affidavit Now To Get Liquol
By Express.

Under recent ruling of the Adams
Express Company persons receiving
shipments of intoxicating liquors at
local option points in Kentucky must
hereafter make an affidavit before a
Justice Of the Peace or Notary Public
that they are of legal age; that the
said liquor is for personal use, and is
not to be used in violation of the laws
of the State of Kentucky, and further
that they do not hold a Federal license
for the sale of liquors. In addition to
the affidavit the person to whom the
liquor is consigned must sign a record
book provided and kept by the express
company as required by law. which is
open to inspection of city, county, and
State officers. The regulation also pre-
hibits the shipment of booze other than
teer in pint or half-pint bottles. The
agents are required to preserve the
affidavits.
This ruling should make the enforce
ment Of the local optien laws some
easier as bootleggers who sign such an
affidavit and are afterward caught sell
ing liquor may be prosecuted for per-
Jury. which is penitentiary offense.

Miss fommie Francis, Chairman.

In answer to an emergency call from

caster Unit Of the Kentucky Branch Of
a National Council of Defense has been
formed with Miss Tommie Frances
as Chairman. The object of this is to
gather all the women of the communi.yy

county woms willing to stand by the

servation and to have their names in
Washington at an earlv date.
1t is proposed to enlist all women in
card promising to carry out instruc-
tions. And these instructions will not
be oneious. The idea is not to limit
the meal to war ration. but to use
intelligence. 1t is the staples that need
to be conserved staples like wheat,
which may be sent abroad. Eat less
white bread. for instance. 1t would be
no hardship to make more use of corn
meal. Flour refined to degree where
much of its nutriment is driven out Of
it is not nearly as wholesome as corn.
There are ways almost without number
for utilizing meal, from. the humble
pone of the South-to the delicious ruf-
fin that many cooks can make and that
all ought to learn how to make.
However. this is divergence. As
the movement grows, every woman
will readily grasp the idea back Of
food conservation. 1t is to preserve
the staples for shipment abroad-to
feed the armies in the field in order
that the war may be won. Eat green
vegetables. Eat everything that is
coming into the farmers markets. Est
sufficiently. but do not waste anything.
And by all means cut down on white
bread and -four.
No better Chairman for this impor-
tant branch of work could have been
chosen than Miss Tommie Frances.
She is not only capable ana energetic
but conscientious and patriotic and
willing to do her bit in this way. Each
organization and individual should help
her in every way, possible.
