Sinking Hospital Ships

The destruction of hospital ships on orders of
the Most High is regular murder trade of the
Potsdam gang. The sinking of the Llandovery
Castle, Canadian hospital ship, by submarine
last week is another outrage to be charged
against the infamous Hohenzoern house.
The record of the kaiser's outrages against
hospital ships is as bloody it is long. Here is
only partial list of the ships of mercy that have
fallen prey to the murderous designs of the
enemy:
The Russian hospital ship was torpedoed off
the Turkish coast of the Black Sea on March II,
1916, with a loss of 45 of the Red Cross staff,
twenty of whom were nurses
The British hospital ship Britannia was sunk
in the Aegean with LOO wounded aboard and
about so were lost
The hospital ship Asturias, with all distin-
gushing Red Cross signs showing, was torpedoed
February L. 1915. Fifteen members of the med
ical staff lost their lives and 20 of the crew.
The British hospital ship Gloucester Castle
was torpedoed March 80. All the wounded were
saved.
The hospital ship Sata struck mine, IA
losing their lives.
When the Lanfranc was sent down by sub
marine, Fl lost their lives, and AZ went down
with the Donegal.

DR.. SMITH URGES
CARE OF SOLDIERS

INDIANAPOLIS, July 1s.-Assur-
ance was given representatives of the
Medical section of the willingness of
the Indiana State Council Of Defense
to indorse and support any action
the section may take for the care and
treatment of tubercular and nervous
ly diseased soldiers, and the council
specifically authorized such steps as
will "obviate the Incarceration of in
sane or demented soldiers in county
jails." Ella
The discussion of the subject by DR..
Samuel E. Smith, superintendent OF
the Eastern Indiana hospital for the
insane, at Richmond featured the
meeting of the council yesterday.
The special reference was made to
one case of a soldier who is being held
in the Shelbyvilla county Jail, because
of the Indiana law on the subject OF
admitting patients for treatment in
the insane hospitals.
DR.. Smith told the council that the
Medical section would like to have
reported to the State Board of Char
tiles every case of a returned soldier
requiring special treatment, SO that
the board could so certify to the heads
of the state institutions and to the
county health officers. In all such
cases it is intended to urge county
councils of defense and county health
officers to cooperate in the execution
of such arrangement.

Working on War Contracts

A survey of the Richmond factories will show
that almost all of them are engaged on war con-
tracts of greater or less proportions. The i'm
preston that Richmond manufacturers have
overlooked an opportunity to cooperate with the
government in this respect is erroneous. Manu-
facturers have not rushed into print every time
they obtained contract their silence being mis-
Interpreted as an indication that no war work
Is done here.
One plant devotes all it's resources to the
turning out of airplane parts and appliances used
In aerial warfare. This concern is one of the few
In the United States admirably equipped for this
kind of work and for many weeks has been work

Another concern is turning out grenades in
large numbers. Still another is making ammuni-
ton carts. One plant is working on oil cans for
submarines, and another is making brass uten-
sils for the navy. Others are working on glove
and underwear contracts.
Two concerns are making high class tools for
factories that are working on government orders.
The combined output of government products
turned out by Richmond factories make show
Ing much larger than persons unacquainted with
the situation believe it to be.

COcOanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good conditi n, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
til ely greaceless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoon4uls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hoi~ and scalp Thoroughly. TIE lath-
err rinses out easily. and removes ev-
cry particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair cries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
Yen can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in The family eor
months.-Adv.

Today's Aid to Beauty

Hair is by far the most conspicuous
thing about us and is probably the
most easily damaged by bad or care
less treatment. II we are very careful
in hair washing, we will have virtually
no hair troubles. An especially fine
shampoo for this weather, one that
brings out all the natural beauty of
the hair; that dissolves and entirely
removes all dandruff, excess oil and
dirt; can easily be used at trifling ex-
pense by simply dissolving a teaspoon
full of Canthrox (Which you can get at
any druggist's) in cup of hot water
This makes a full cup of shampoo
liQuid-enough so it is easy to apply it
to all the hair instead Of just the top
of the head. This chemically dissolves
all impurities and creates a soothing,
cooling lather. Rinsing leaves the
scalp spotlessly clean, soft and plant,
while the hair takes on the glossy rich
ness Of natural color, also a fiuffiness
which makes it seem much heavier
than it is. After Canthrox shampoo,
arranging the hair is a pleasure.-Adv

Smokes for the Soldiers

Press dispatches yesterday said the govern
ment may put smokers in the United States on a
ration basis to obtain enough tobacco the lads
who are making fertilizer for French soil out of
followers of the Most High
If a tobacco ration is necessary to help our
soldiers in their laudable ambition of putting
Huns where they will do no more harm to women
and children, every smoker in the United States
will gladly gather pennyroyal and corn silk as
substitutes or give up his pipe, cigar and cigaret
until the Yanks are supplied

Hun is one under the Sod Our boys over there

Obituary..
(Contributed)

Ellerbe and community has been no
more saddened than by the death of little
John M, Maness Jr., only child of DR..
John NJ and Mrs. Cassie Maness. He
was taken violently i'll with that dreaded
disease Coltis, and was rushed to the
Sanatorium in Charlotte, where for ten
DAYS the little life hung in the balance.
And while medical skill was being eX-
hausted in Charlotte to save this sweet
little child, and all Ellerbe with bowed
heads prayed and wept, the angels never
ceased to beCkon to little John NJ. to
come home. God had called him. And
while the sun began to cast its first shad-
ows on the western skies Sunday even
ing, June Goth, this sweet little spirit took
its flight and went back to God who gave
it. Though scarcely two years had you
been with John NJ, yet even in so short
time you had become the idol of a low
ing fathers and mothers he art, and the
little pet of all who knew you. Assisted
by Rev D. 7. Bridges pastor of the Bap-
t.st church, we conducted the funeral
service O. dear little John NJ, and in the
presence Of the largest gathering we have
ever seen at the burial Of child, we laid
the little body away in the cemetery neat
Euerbe. To the broken hearted father
and neither we offer our sympathy while
tears gather that we cannot wipe away.
and by this going we pray that you
both may see more clearly the beauties
Of wonders land".--the happy home of
little John Nj.

Girls Wanted AS Nurses.

Across the sea, from France
with every closing day of the
heroic struggle of our fighting
men, there comes a more impera-
tive call to the women of America
to assume their full share of
responsibility in winning this
world war for the right of meE,
women, and nations to live their
own lives and determine their
own fortunes.
There exist now an extreme
need for at least $4,000 women
of character, intelligence, and
education to fill the gaps in our
hospital stats caused by the call
ing of many thousands of skilled
nurses to the fighting front.
There is only one way to fill
these gaps: By keeping our hos
pital training schools supplied
with students, who are not only
preparing for service abroad and
at home at the end of their course
and at the same time are equip
ting themselves to earn their
living in one of the noblest of
professions, but from the very
outset of their course are serving
their country as we'll as learning.
The Surgeon General of the
United States Army and the
American Red Cross, therefore
unite in a earnest appeal for 25,-
600 young women between the
ages of 10 and IS to enroll in what
shall be called the United States
Student Nurse Reserve. The
enrolment began on July 20, 1918.
Those who register in this volun-
teer body will engage to hold
themselves in readiness until
April |, 1919, to be assigned to
training schools in civilian hos
pitfalls or to the Army Nursing
School and begin their course of
study and active student nurs-
ing.
The service which we are ask
ing calls for the best that the
womanhood of America can offer
in courage, devotion, and re-
sourCefulness. We can not go
forward to victory oversee if the
wives and families of our fighters
are not sustained in health and
strength, if we can not protect
our workers against hazards of
war industries, if we can not de-
feat accident and disease, our
enemies at home. Upon the
health of the American people
will depend the spirit of their
forces in the field.
| Mrs. w. P. Webb and Mrs. W.
N. Everett will be in the Red
Cross Sewing Room on Friday,
the 9th, to answer any questions
about the nursing, or either of
these ladies can be reached by
phone.
