Prospects Of
Successful Drive.

The preliminary work for the drive
for universal membership in the Rel
Cross ha3 been ncs. intense and the
manager of the State Christmas Roll
call, Mackenzie r. Todd, has labored
day and night 80 make il effective.
His efforts have borne it'll fruit and
lie has the assurance from all parts
Ct the State from mis- enthusiastic as
sistants that everything has been
done to impress all with the duty Of
pcying a dollar and becoming a mem
Der. with prospects of the most salts
factory results. The final drive is
on to close the Odd. DO not delay
but enroll at once. All that is need
ed is a heart and dollar. Prove
that you have both.
This timely and pretty little poem
is contributed by Miss Cecie jackson,
of Hawesville, who is winning fame
as a composer of beautiful verse;
"A DOLLAR AND A HEART"
Of the Red Cross band it does not
take
Great wealth to be a part
/; does not take great rank or power,
Just a dollar and heart.
To stand behind the boy who's still
To stay behind the foam;
To help with ready hand and heart
The one who's coming home.
1t may seem trivial, my friend,
Not worth a moments care
But can you think just what it means
Both here and over there?
To know that folks back home are
glad
To give and do their part,
Each standing ready, firm and true,
With a dollar and n heart.

OWNS A PRICELESS MADoEaA
Trapanl, Seaport Of Sicily, Possesses
an Old Statue Which Has an
Interesting History.

Trapani is one of Sicily's chief sea-
ports-a thriving little town whose
fishing wharves and salt works are
rivals as scenes of bustling industry.
Trapani's fame is founded largely
upon ITS ownership Of wonderful
statue of the Madonna. The statue is
valuable relic, the history of which
begins early in the fourteenth century.
Tradition says it was at that time
discovered by some Turks floating
about alone in a little boat. They
landed their trophy on the shore at
Trapani. But when they wished to
remove their prize, they met with
considerable opposition on the part
of the citizens of the port. Neither
side producing golden-tongued ora
tor who could convince his opponents,
the matter was turned over to fate in
the form of two bullocks, which, by
walking away from the shore when
turned loose, designated that the
image vas to be the property of Ira
PAM.
In the seven centuries of its stay in
the convent of the town it has re-
ceived valuable collection Of
watches, rings, bracelets, and other
ornaments which are hung about it,
and rest in heaps upon its pedestal.
These are the gifts Of those whom the
Madonna has aided. High above the
adoring crowd she stands, smiling as
gently upon the bringer of silver
ring as upon the giver Of priceless
jewel.
Western Sicily abounds in myths
and traditions Of the old gods and
heroes. It was here that Virgil's
Aeneas is said to have stopped to wor-
ship in honor Of his fathers memory,
and the city he founded became Ira
PAM.

Barristers and Solicitors.

The English keep up most of the old
distinction between physicians and
surgeons, barristers and solicitors. A
barrister alone can address the higher
courts and the parliamentary commit
tees; solicitor must keep to Office
work and courts of first instance. A
man with grievance goes first to his
solicitor, who then instructs or briefs
barrister for him. If that barrister
in the course Of the trial wants a GER
tain evidence removed from the record
he moves that 1t be struck out and not
stricken out, as an American lawyer
would say.
Only barristers may become judges.
An English barrister, just like his
American brother, takes a retainer,
when he is engaged. But the rest Of
his fee does not wait upon the term
nation of his case. He expects to re-
ceive a "refresher" from time to time.

When is a Man Tired?

In an article about tired business
men in American Magazine, a writer
says:
'When a man says he is tired he
means that he is the victim of fatigue
and that the requirements of the days
work have exhausted his mental and
physical resources. Is this true? If ii
were, the victim of this terrific da.
would go home and fall into bed to re-
cuperate from what he has suffered
But he does not. He does one of two
things: Either he spends the evening
at home romping with the kids OF
reading or amusing himself with some
fad or game; or he goes out and puts
in anywhere from four to eight hours
seeing show, going to q roof garden
taking an automobile ride, dancing q
good many miles or playing cards.
ut turns out that he is not rs tired
as he thought he was. In fact; to all
intents and purposes, he is not tired
at ALL If he were he could not show
up laughing and with the CLEAN OF
hearty enjoyment in his eye at the enc
of dance or an automobile ride, OF
whatever it is that he has selected 6
a means of killing time before he
chooses to go to bed. The man who
is really fatigued has no desire t.
dance, does not want to be bounce,
around in an automobile, does not care
to sit through play, feels an aver
sion to game of cards. If he Is really
fatigued there is only one thing he
does want, and that is rest-rest and
Sleep"

War stons nsea RathIna."

Humorists have recently added to
the list of the wars alleged horrors
the fact that Londoners can no longer
battle in sea water in their own
homes. The facts in the case are re-
ported by Popular Mechanics Maya
zine, as follows: 1t seems that for
years one Of the English railways has
maintained a "sea-water" service. For
the small sum of II cents 1t has deliv-
cred to any customer a large can of
real ocean water for bathing purposes,
calling for the can the following day.
Now, however, Londoners, who pride
themselves on being "the best tubbed
people in the world" must forego these
"sea Baths" for the railway has dis
continued its service on account OF
war conditions. HencefOrth fresh wa
ter must suffice for cleansings.

The Swiss federal council, under
date of April 10. 1918. has decreed

a TEXT FROM HUGO.

This war Is not the kind that can
re won just by the people in uniform.
Every civilian, toe, has to keep ever
lastingly at 1t and In no particular
is it more true that eternal vigilance
is the price Of safety than in the
matter of food conservation. The
grandson Of the great French author,
Victor Hugo, said something which
might be used as text on which
every household in Maryland might
preach Itself sermon. Said he, I'VE
will fight with the Sammies, we will
go down to the sea in ships with the
Sammies, but by we won't
starve while they have luxuries over
there"
The eyes of the Allied world have
seen the splendor Of the American
soldiers in the trenches cover there"
Don't let them see any shame of the
American people in their peaceful,
prosperous households back home"

Heiress a Successful Artist.

Heiress to- one Of the greatest for
tunes in America, born to a life Of
ease and luxury, Mrs. Harry Payne
Whitney is shining example of the
type of American woman who is COM
bining successfully a career while she
performs her duty to her home and
society, says the Washington Times.
The former Gertrude Vanderbilt,
daughter of the late Cornelius Van
tlerhllt, has for the last ten years
worked untiringly as sculptor. Splen-
did examples Of her art have been
exhibited in New York, many of them
selected in competition in which the
best artists of the time have been her
competitors. Among Mrs. Whitney's
best, known works ore the Titanic me-
mortal, which has been erected In the
national capital; fountain in the New
Arlington hotel at Washington, ex-
