a house and camping party, Mrs. Thos.
Garland had a spend-the-day party.
Her guests were Mrs. Thos. Osborne
her sister, Mrs. Orr of Brevard and her
brother and his wife, Mr.. and Mrs.
Martin Kinney OF Charleston, S. @.
Mrs. Garland with her guests, Messrs
Morrison, their wives and children of.
Savannah, Ga and Mrs, Foy of Angus

Nearly every day are auto parties to
Asheville, Waynesyille, Hendersonvil1e
and many other places of interest.
Summer guests are making their an

number was excellent, fine for anna
tours. Of special note was the Red
Cross nurse presented by Miss Lendir
Johnson. Equally as patriotic was the
little naval officer in full uniform with
gun in hand. In the audience were
some soldier boys. With the waving
of the flag, cheering and clapping of
hands, and singing of Dixie and then of
America brought the audience to their
feet. Even in this present generation

LEMONS WRITTEN AND
BEAUTIFY THE SKIN
Make this beauty lotion cheapIy for
your face, neck, arms and hands.

At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare q full quar-
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin softener and complexion beautiier,
by squeezing the juice of two fresh lem
ons into a bottle containing three
of orchard white. Care should be taken
to strain the juice through a fine cloth
SO no lemon pulp gets in, then this 10
ton will keep fresh for months. Every
woman knows that lemon juice is used
to bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan and is
the ideal skin ~softener, whitener and
beauti6er.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store and
two lemons from the grocer and make up
a quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion and massage it daily into
tie face, neck, arms and hands. 1t is
marvellous to smoother rough, red hands.

to raise the largest crops in the his

crisis which may defeat the carefully
laid plans to increase production is
developing serious proportions.
So serious is the labor shortage
that plans to furolugh hundreds OF
men who will be attending summer
training camps at Fort Smelling and
pour them ito the harvest fields of
the Northwest have been suggested
Attention will be turned immediat-

hands are crossing the line daily, it
is estimated.
The Canadian government has
commenced systematic campaign
to attract American farmers and

deserted by the call to arms. Nome
steads are offered on easy terms.
Men are given certificates promising
