Organization Of Housewives Of coun.
try VIII Be Carried Out Along
Military Lines.

The newest army is known as the
"antiwaste." It will please father to
know that housewives are banding
together to help him conserve his
bankroll, but at the same time, it
may be necessary for him to take in q
reef in his appetite.
The plan is to enlist the nations
housewives in campaign to conserve
food. Everything has been COM
pleted and the project will be carried
out along military lines. A "regi-
ment' will be raised in every city
and town in the country and each
regiment will have its colonel.
Mrs. Julia Heath, national presi-
dent, who will be commander in
chief, says the army will work in CO.
operation with the National Defense
council, The purpose Of the move
ment Ia to teach housewives how to
save IN the klJcnen. - beg.
The first move will be to get the
women to nail up in their kitchen q
poster, bearing the picture of an
American flag and the reminder that
women must prevent waste Of food
to help the United States win the
war. Recruiting stations are to be
opened in the homes and stores. A
woman doesn't have to be member
of the Housewives league in order
to enroll. After the "army" is mo-
bilized, there will be classes to in
struct women with servants, women
with no servants and servants them
selves in the much-needed art Of pre-
venting waste Of food.

AM1IwAs1E ARMY is FORMED WERE SILL Lei IN DARK
Club Members Unable TO Tell From
Poets Letters Whether He 40
cepted or Declined Invitation.

The following story is told of the
late Joaquin Miller, the ''poet of the
Sierras:"
A certain club desired the poet to
address its annual meeting, for
which an elaborate program had been
prepared. The secretary wrote let.
ter to Miller, telling him Of the
purpose of the gathering and re-
questing his cooperation. In due
time there came an answer from the
poet. 1t was in his own hand and
covered four pages. In vain the Sec
rotary pored over the manuscript. He
passed it on to the president, the
board Of directors, and the members
in tutns but all failed to decipher the
scrawl. The question before the
club was, sHas Miller accepted or
has he declined?" The secretary
finally sent the following note to the
poet:
"My Dear Mr.. Miller-Your let
ted received, but l have been unable
to determine whether you have ac-
cepted or declined our invitation. If
you will be present on the date mem
toned, will you kindly make a cross
at the bottom of this letter. If it
will be impossible for you to appear,
will you kindly draw a circle?" In
due time the letter came back, but
the secretary could not decide wheth-
er the poet had drawn a cross Or o
circlel iasEszss

Graphite az a Lubricant.

Graphite. says the Scientific Ameri-
can. is not a lubricant. but an aid to
keeping a bearing In good working or
der by filling up the minute irregulari-
ties of the shaft and bearing, and pro-
ducing a beautiful, polished surface,
and in this way reduces friction. To
get this result only very snail guam
tity Of graphite is necessary. and II
too much is applied 1t simply collects
in wads and defeats the purpose In
tended. 1t follows that the proper way
TO use graphite successfully is to mix
thoroughly small quantity with the
lubricating oil at suitable intervals,
and not to apply It continuously, for
when the above mentioned polished
surface is formed Il will last quite a
long time before requiring renewal.

Facts About tuberculosis.

The two plans to fight consumption
are the education of the children
through the schools as part Of their
course OF study and the care and iso-
lation of those who now have the dis
ease. Without the knowledge Of how
to safeguard health and to care for the
afflicted much of the teaching in
schools is in vain. The tuberculosis
Commission believes that the rising
generation should be taught the rules
of health and that It should be made
compulsory to include a health course
in every public school

RESOLUTIONS

Adopted by the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union of the Second
District, Division B, at Pembroke,
KY, June IA, 1917.
Realizing our dependence upon our
Heavenly Father in all that we under
take as workers together with him
for the destruction OF the liquor traf;,
fick, we express our gratitude to Him
for the wonderful victories OF the past
year. We rejoice in the Increased
prohibition sentiment throughout the
world. and for its crystalization into
definite action with sach far-reaching
results that it seems that our goal may
be attained in the not far distant fu-
ture.
We believe
/. That total abstinence from the
use of all alcoholic liquors and all
narcotic drugs is necessity for the
physical, mental and moral well-being
of our nation.
2. That Constitutional Prohibition is
the only means to secure the over
throw Of the drink evil.
8. That as a means to this end we
should have prohibition Of the manu-
facture and sale Of all intoxicating
LIQUORS written into our State Consd-
tuition; and that we should ask every
candidate for the legislature at the
minq election to state publicly
whether he will vote for the submis-
sion to the people Of really effective
prohibition amendment to the Con-
stitution.
a. That this convention should wire
President Wilson to not only recon-
mend, but to urge, Congress to enact
prohibition as a war measure for the
conservation of the grain which is so
much needed for food, and also for
the protection of our men and boys
both physically and morally, that they
may make more efficient soldiers. Or,
as an alternative, that the President
issue a proclamation prohibiting the
: manufacture and sale of all intoxica-
ting liquors during the war.
S. That, whereas liquor can be sold
legally at three points in this county
(Christian). and knowing its awful
menace to the morals. the health and
the efficiency of our men and boys
not to mention the poverty and dis
tress in SO many homes resulting from
