THE CHURCH OF CHRIST

Last Sunday night We enjoyed the
great pleasure of hearing II. S. Wan
amaker, on the beautiful subject re-
garding Christ's estimate of His Dis
ciples' position in the world before
and after His CrucifiXion and Resur-
rection. He also touched upon the
relationship which Jesus holds to
the modern world as the exquisite
and perfect example Of men; Christ
came to teach us how to live, and
not how to die, he said, "and He
taught us not alone in word, but in
example,"
There was a great audience of
eager people present, which only en-
phasizes the fact that men and wom-
en- are seeking more today after the
truth concerning these matters than
ever before in history. Indeed, all
who came, were we'll repaid, for a
judicial and earnest listner could not
fail to see the truth revealed and to
be drawn into a closer sympathy with
Jesus

ing Goods or Entertainments For
Organization Work.

The Red Cross emblem and enter
tainments given for the benefit of the
Red Cross, are not generally under
stood by the public
The following bulletins were re-
ceived recently by the Twin Falls
chapter from Washington, and give
the necessary information:
Provisions of the law are as fol-
lows:
1T shall be unlawful for any per-
son, corporation, or association, 9TH
Ell than the American National Red
Cross and Navy sanitary and hospit-
al authorities of the United States,
for the purpose of trade or as an adj
vertisement. to induce the sale of any
article whatsoever or for any bust
ness or charitable purpose, to use
within the territory of the United
States and it's exterior possessions,
the emblem Of the Greek Red Cross
on a white ground, or any sign or
ensignia made or colOred in imitation
thereof, or of the words, RED Cross"
or any combination of these words"
The statute prohibits the making
or use of any article having on them
the emblem of the Greek Red Cross
on a white ground, whether these ar
ticles be buttons, pencils, studs, flags,
penants, wearing apparel, or any 9TH
er thing. The emblem of the Red
Cross must not be commercialized.
Profit Sharing Benefits Regarding
the policy to be followed with refer
ence to profit sharing benefits
First: No offers should be accept
ed contemplating a division of prof
its between the promoters and the
Red Cross. This rule applies to the
manufacture and sale of merchan-
disc or articles of any kind as well
as entertainments.
Second: No one should be per-
mitted to promote or advertise an
entertainment or like function as a
Red Cross entertainment or benefit
unless it is certain that the manage
ment or control is entirely in the
hands of the Red Cross chapter.
Third: If, after due investigation,
those offering to conduct entertain
ments for the benefit of the Red Cross
are found to be entirely reliable and
acting in good faith, they may be per
mitted to make announcement in the
press or otherwise of their intention
TO donate the proceeds of the enter
tainment to the Red Cross, but the
entertainment should not be adver-
tsed as a Red Cross benefit or a
Red Cross entertainment, nor should
any wording be used in the announce
ments that would lead the public to
believe that it is being given under
the auspices of the Red Cross or that
the Red Cross is in any way connect
ed with or responsible for its man
agement.
Fourth: In no instance should the
use of the Red Cross emblem in an
nOuncing or advertising an enter
tainment be authorized except in the
case of such entertainments as are
actually managed and controlled by
the Red Cross chapter.
1t is important that each individual
case upon this subject should be de-
cided with tact and diplomacy by the
chapter head

HALF HOLIDAY WEDNESDAY

Wednesday was happy day of the
week for many Kimberly folks, who
find little opportunity to get out of
their places of business during week
days. All stores in Kimberly closed
Friday afternoon to permit the Kim
berly folks to spend the afternoon
at the fair in Filler Many car loads
were seen making fast time in that
direction.
The schools were also dismissed
for the afternoon, upon the advice of
the board. 1t is felt that since the
farm is the most important feature
of the county, that all should have
an opportunity to observe the pro-
ductiveness of those farms, and the
opportunities that await the ambiti-
Gus, scientific young farmer of to-
morrow.

vestigating the death of Mrs. Maude

lonely road near Concord, N. c., on

sister, who will receive the bulk of
the James King fortune, and who is
the only living person whose name is
signed to it.

ested in the finding of a paper in

NEW YORK, Sept. 19-With one or
two exceptions girls who have been
tried in the past few days to replace
messenger boys in New York have
failed. Too much walking, inability
to stand the gibes of messengers of

which have thinned the ranks

wanted girls over sixteen for light
work, steady employment. Many
girls who didn't know what they

One office was able to persuade
three to go to work, and another got
five. After the first day there was
one girl left in each office. The

THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DANDRUFF

There Is one sure way that
never fails to remove dandruff
completely and that is to dissolve
1t. This destroys it entirely. To
do this, Just get about four
ounces of plain, ordinary liquid
aryon; apply 1t at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub 1t in gently with
the finger tips.
BY morning most, If not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications
will completely dissolve and en-
tFely, destroy, every single sign
and trace of II, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itch
ing and digging Of the scalp will
stop instantly, and your hair will
be fluffy, lustrops, glossy, silky
and soft, and look and feel hun
dred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t Is inexpensive,
and four ounces Is all you will
need. This simple remedy has
never been known TO fail. adv.

DR.. RICH
RESIGNS
CITY JOB

Failure of DR.. e. A. Rich's plan
to modernize the city health de-
partment by means of a public
health commission OF prominent
physicians, came to light Thursday
when DIR. Rich resigned his posi-
ton as head of the city health
committee.
DR.. Rich gave as his reason a
heavy press of personal practice,
and inability to give proper atten-
tion to his work.
The resignation will take effect
April /. At that time DR.. j. E..
Henry, who is now handling the
practical work of the health de-
partment, will become city health
officer, and the commission form
of supervision in this work will be
abolished.
DR.. Rich offered his services to
the city last summer as supervis-
DRY head of the health depart
ment. Through arrangements
with Mayor Fawcett, the physician
appointed commission of three
prominent health specialists, who
were to give their time freely to
the city in an effort to improve
the health department and con-
duct an educational health cam
paign.
The commission has never held
any public meetings, and DR.. Rich
is the only member who has stuck
to the job.
Inability of the health special
, lists to induce the city to spend
more money on the department
discouraged them. The health de-
partment has operated under prac-
tically the same system as before
DR.. j. f. Henry, the incoming
health officer, was appointed last
year as city bacteriologist. He was
later given control of the health
department when Dr. E. A. Mon
tague, the health office appointed
by DR.. Rich, was dismissed.

Wanted, a Name

Who can suggest a name for
Tacoma's patriotic Fourth of July
celebration? A name suggestive of
the spirit of the day rather than
of a pleasurable show?
Trustees of the International
council are puzzled over what they
are going to call the affair, which
is the combined effort of many
thousands of Tacoma people to
celebrate the nations birthday.
The trustees want suggestions.
They specify that the name must
be short and snappy, not over two
words in length.
Send your suggestions in to The
Times,
