JOIN THE RED CROSS.

So we'll known is the Red Cross, so
well understood has become the work
of this great organization for the re-
lief of suffering since it's marvellous
work during the war has challenged
the admiration of the world, that it
would seem to be entirely unnecessary
to make an appeal to men and women
to join. But there is ever present
with us the tendency to Indifference,
to "let George do it," and let up now
that the war is over, that constont
reminders are necessary.
A herculean task lies Immediately
before the American Red Cross, task
even greater than it performed so ad-
mirably while the war lasted. Then
its activities were confined to the
Entente countries; now the whole wide
world is it's field. There are famine
conditions to relieve, millions Of peo-
pie are hungry and cold and sick who
will know no help except such as
reaches them through the Red Cross.
Common or garden variety of graft
tude for what the Red Cross has
meant to men in the service of their
country from homes in Robson county
ought to make every citizen of the
county eager to join. It comes right
home to us. Many mother in Robe
son county has reason to thank God
for what the Red Cross has done for
her boy. Read elsewhere in this pa
per what a soldier boy from Robson
writes his mother about the Red Cross
II shall always be glad," he writes
shat we gave to this cause as liber-
ally as we did and I will give to it as
long as it needs help and want you to-
They are doing great work over
here. They give the boys anything
they need. They have, given me sc
many things I cannot begin to tell
you"
Such is the testimony of one who
has received the benefits. Just the
simple story of soldiers is all that is
needed to convince any one of the
great work the Red Cross is doing.
No one is compelled to join. "The
quality of mercy is not strained" Blu,
you will be given an opportunity. l,
only takes a dollar. You will not bt
asked to join twice. Let's roll up {
membership including every citizen O:

President Wilson has been given
such a welcome in France as has nev-
er been given the head of any other
nation there. The French people hon
or him for what he represents as the
head of this great nation. 1t is a pity
that while he is acclaimed abroad and
honored for the high purposes which
impelled him to go to Europe, there is
petty criticism of his course at home.
In certain quarters desperate effort is
being made to make it appear that
President Wilson does not correctly
interpret the thought and purposes of
the American people. Mr.. Wilson is
not disturbed by these small and jeal-
Gus faultfinders. He "knows, and
knows that he knows" and the hopes
of hitherto hopeless peoples all over
the world are centered in him. The
heathen may rage and imagine vair
thing, but we shall sadly miss ou1
guess if the wisdom Of the President
course does not dawn on all the fear
full ones bye and bye.

Girls! Use Lemons!
Make a Bleaching,
Beautifying Cream

At the cost of small jar Of or
binary cold cream one can prepare a
full quarter pint of the most wonder
full lemon skin softener and complex
ion beautifier, by squeezing the juice
of two fresh lemons into a bottle
containing three ounces of orchard
white. Care should be taken to strain
the juice through fine cloth so no
lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion
will keep fresh for months. Every
woman knows that lemon juice IS
used to bleach and remove such blem-
ishes as sallowness, freckles and tan
and is the ideal skin softener, smooth
ener and beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces Of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint Of this sweetly fra
grant lemon lotion and massage 1t
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands. It naturally should help to
soften, freshen, bleach and bring out
the roses and beauty of any skin. 1t
is wonderful to smoother rough, red
hands.

WHY NOT AN ORDINANCE?

Would it not be wise for the town
fathers to pass an ordinance imposing
a suitable penalty for allowing chill
dren to go to school from homes where
there is case of the "flu" or any
other communicable disease? That
would throw an effective safeguard
around the schools and protect the
children as no simple request will pro-
tect them. The request has been made
repeatedly that children be kept away
from school when there is case OF
FLU" in the family, but it is known
that that request has been disregard.
ed; Some people are prone to set ur
their own standards about such things
They decide that there is no danger o1
their child giving the disease to any
one else and, in defiance of the re-
quest based upon the Judgment O:
the physirians, they send their child t,
school.
If the request is wise, why woult
not an ordinance making it compul
sorry be wise?
Every precaution is being taken b,
Supt. Gale and the teachers at tn
graded and high school. They are do
ing everything they can do to protec
the children, but without the coop

DOCTORS ADVISE
The Improved Calomel Tablet
That is Entirely Purified of All
Nauseating and Dangerous
Qualities.

Physicians are warning the public
against trifling with colds, influenza
and grippe. They say that a brisk
calomel purgative, preferably Gallo
tabs, the new and improved calomel
tablet, should be invariably taken at
bed time and repeated the second or
third night, if necessary. In the ear
liest stages, one Calotab is usually
sufficient unless the case is particu-
larly severe,
Physicians say that it is waste of
time and is dangerous to experiment
with other laxatives, as calomel is
absolutely necessary sooner or later

Grafton of every patron it is impossi-
BILE for them to be absolutely sure that
no child from home where there is a
case of "flu" is attending school. If
just one child goes to school from con-
tact with a case every child in school
is in danger.
An ordinance imposing a suitable
penalty would be fair to all and
would be more effective than any
amount of urging, with compliance
with the request left to the individual
conscience.

Public School Activities.

The second afghan knitted by the pupils
of the Montgomery County High School in
Rockville was presented at the opening
exercises in the assembly hall Friday morn
ing. March Sth. Rev. John Henderson, in
behalf of the Red Cross, received the af-
chan and spoke some fitting words in APP
probation of the pupils spirit of co-opera-
ton and of giving.
Preceding the presentation, most at
tractive play was given by the pupils of
the first Grade under the direction of their
teacher. Miss Mary Brewer. The stage
was divided into three parts in which were
represented the three phases of life lover
There camp life. the Red Cross, and the

where the soldiers and sailors we're having
recreation. After some songs and stunts,
the boys" repaired to the Y. NJ C. A. dug
out" for some victrola music. Garry Me
Back to Old Virginia" was appropriately
chosen for the music. A sailor. having
come into camp wounded, was sent to the
hospital tent, where the white-capped lit
tie nurses cared for him very efficiently.
Laying him out on a cot. they applied
bandages and spread over him the afghan
made up of brightly colored squares.
Both children and teacher are to be COM
mended on the success of the little play.
The children themselves seemed to thor
oughly enjoy the performance and carried
it off in truly professional style.

Farm Demonstration Notes.

Montgomery county seed corn is of poor
er quality than in many years. Tests al
ready made indicate that practically so
per cent. Of it will not grow. The seasons
crop will depend largely on the care used
in finding out which ears will not grow and
discarding them.
Last Saturday test box Of IA selected
ears was opened at the farm Of W. M Ma
eruder, Gaithersburg. Fifty.one ears tested
100 per cent; II. SO Is per cent. rs
were worthless for planting Mr.. Magru-
der considered his seed corn rather better
than usual 1t is impossible this year to
tell good seed corn by looking at it, The
test box alone can tell us.
A l00-ear seed test will be put on at
the Court House next Tuesday. March 10,
and the test will be read the following
Tuesday, March 20. This will enable many
who are unfamiliar with the test to see
just how 1t is done. County Agent Van
Hoesen will be present both days for this
purpose. Public testing demonstrations will
also be held in various parts of the county.
The situation is really serious. Let plant
only tested ears" be the slogan of every
Montgomery county corn grower. 1t will
pay big at the present prices.
