To keep starch from sticking add a

pipes to clean them out and disinfect

To clean ink stains from the fingers

Mother Heart Finds
Relief In Working For
| The American Re dCross.
In the United States an army of
million young men is being raised,
says Miss Mabel T. Boardman, mem
Der of the executive committee of the
American Red Cross. That means that
million mothers and many hundreds
of thousands of sisters and wives, as
we'll as women citizens of this country,
are automatically, to the fullness Of
their hearts, enlisted in the great
army of the Red Cross. Through us
and through us alone can the prayer
of those women that American men
! fighting for liberty in France shall
suffer no single needless pain be an
swered
Tasks that lie before the women of
the country are legion. From the
professional nurse who goes into
base hospital somewhere in France, the
volunteer nurses aid who does the
ward homework, the woman who sews
, the sheets and pillow cases, "some-
where at home,' the busy government
clerk who spends her evenings tabu-
..lating registration at headquarters,
every woman can find her work under
the Red Cross.
my boy went with Pershing,"
Southern mother, visiting in Washing
ton, said to me the other day: "You
must give me something hard to do.
Your Red Cross relief is relief for me
as we'll as for him. While my hands
and mind are busy with service, moth
ing can be too hard to bear, no sus-
pense or no fears" Work in the Red
Cross is just that-the way out for
American women But it is not enough
that we sew and make bandages, serve
in hospitals, and care for the women
and children these men have left be-
hind them You can't make sheets
without sheeting, nor bandages with
out gauze.
We must not only make things but
we must give out a sense that no gen
crosby can be commensurate with the
sacrifices Of life American men are
prepared to make, the money to pur-
chase the raw materials of our work.
Small sums and large, every penny,
every thousand dollars, helps AS wo-
men we must give and give quickly
our share in the hundred million dollar
fund of the American Red Cross
There must never be a time when the
American Red Cross cannot afford to
render the finest service in the world

THE FLAG IN CHURCH.

Admission Star:
Memphis, Tenn, may boast of one Of
the foremost writers of the United
States in Mrs Sara Beaumont Ken
nedy who's litrary output provs her
to possess the divine afflatus of real
poetic genius. One of the most re-
cent of her contributions to The Mem
phs Commercial Appeal, for which she
writes, is entitled, "The Flag in the
Church" and is dedicated to the Rev.
w. d. Buckner, rector of Calvary Epis-
copal Churcbh of that city, the first
Memphis minister to have the flag fol
low the cross in choir professionals.
Inspired by the sight, she wrote as
follows:
Down the wide aisle, with measured
tread
The white-robed singers stepped,
And up to rafters, lost in gloom,
The peaIing music swept.
The cross Of Christ led on before,
Borne high, where all could see,
And close behind in rippled waves,
The Flag Of Liberty
Up to the altar rails they went,
Those emblems. side by side
Our pledge of faith to Calvary,
Our country's symbolled pride,

HOMINY.

Speaking of foods made from corn,
what has become of homemade hon.
my. that old-time food of the South SO
plentiful as late as a few years ago?
In the days OF our grandfathers IL was
made on every plantation. Two meth
DDS were used in preparing hominy
for cooking. One was TO break grains
OF corn in a mortar, the other to soften
them with I've. The latter probably
was most often used. as. it required
less labor and was at the command OF
every family possessing an ash
hopper
Only q few years ago homemade
.hominy was sold in this section by
the bucketful Now it seems to have
almost disappeared and the food, once
so cheap. is purchased in cans by
many families.

An ANcIRNT GREEK PRAYER.

We are shocked beyond measure by
the tragedy that Is daily enacted in
Europe. The war Is the greatest OF
all wars. the most evil thing that has
ever befallen man in historic times.
The imagination cannot grasp it in its
hldeous entirety. The mind refuses
10 visualize It as a whole.
And yet. when one turns the pages
OF history. one is bound 10 admit that
In days long past, in the Napoleonic
wars. in the Seven Year war. IN the
Thirty Year war, in the many wars
that have stained the pages OF history
with blood. something of the same
despair and horror must have de-
pressed the hearts and the minds OF
men
They even as we. prayed for a
peace with victory. They. even as
we, looked past the days of carnage TO
the quiet after-hours when the work
of binding up all the wounds would
begin, when the ruins would be re-
built. when, the blessings of a righte-
GUS peace would once more be enjoy
cd by men.
II is a long, long road TO that much
desired goal for us and for the allies,
The most dangerous enemy to civiliza-
ion, TO humanity. to liberty that the
world has even known must be
crushed and humbled before we can
even allow our minds to dwell upon
the after-peace
The Kaiser and all his brutes must
be curbed. Their fangs must be
drawn. Their power for evil taken
away forever When that is done, II
will be possible once more for the men
and women of the great democratic
nations OF the earth to turn away from
blood-letting and shell-making.
In that happy, far-off day IL VIII b
possible for Frenchmen and Belgians,
contemplating their ruined villages
and their wasted fields, to pray
prayer that was made by Theocritus
OF the Greeks % centuries ago. II is
just as fresh. just as poignant, just as
moving and just as true today as
when the poet wrote IL:
and pray that all the towns
the hands OF enemies have laid so ut
terly waste may be inhabited again of
their ancient peoples, and their fields
labored and made to bring forth album
dainty. their lowlands filled with the
bleating of fat flocks in their tens OF
thousands, and the twilight traveller
warned 10 hasten his steps by the
home-going of innumerable herds;
and pray likewise that against the
time when the cricket is fain to sing
high in the twigs overhead because of
the mountaineering shepherds. against
that time, the time of sowing, none of
the fallows be left unturned of the
plough, and as for the weapons of
war. may spiders weave over them
their slender webs. and of the war-cry
the very name be forgot"

THE KAISER AND THE GAMERS,

Speaking of the WORKOUT charge
that this is rich mans" war, we
have the word of Herr Landsberg, a
German Socialist. that Germany would
cease fighting but for the German war
profiteers. While other countries
have sought to reduce war profits, a
perfect understanding has at all times
existed between the German Kaiser
and the makers of armor plate and
munitions.
In America tax schedules have been
so arranged that our wealthy men will
bear the heaviest burdens Of war. be-
sides sending their sons to the field
for our conscription law really gives
an advantage to the poor man over the
rich. In Germany the makers of
munitions are the only class profiting
by the war.
The situation offers fine chance
for those who wish to fight profit
GERS" to shoulder muskets and strike
blow against the real profiteers in
this war-the owners of German mu-
milton factories.
