Mrs. Virgil M. Haniline, 46 years
of age, died at her home on Main
street Sunday night after a long i'll

been life of service and sacrifice
and during her long years Of SUI

murmur. In the passing of Mrs.

called, but the world is better for
her having lived and her noble life
will live long in the minds and
hearts of her loved ones. Funeral
services were held at the residence
this morning at 10 o'clock, conduct
ed by Revs. Clyde Darsie and B. w.
Trimble, burial in Machpelah GENE
terry. Besides her husband, Mrs,

il you it buy only war bread. Our
object is that we should buy and
consume one-third less wheat pro-
ducts than we did last year.
"Tave one meatless day Tues
day. in every week and one meat
less meal in every day. Have two
porkless days Tuesday and Sat-
urday) in every week"
Explanation; Meatfess means
without any cattle, hog or sheep
products. On the other days use
mutton and lamb in preference to
beef or pork. Porkless means with
out pork, bacon, ham, lard, or pork
products fresh or preserved. Use
fish, poultry and eggs. As nation
we eat and waste nearly twice as
much meat as we need"
"Make every day a fat saving
day (butter, lard, substitutes, etc. J"
Explanation: Fry less; bake,
broil, boil or stew food instead.
Save meat drippings; use them
and vegetable oils for cooking in
stead of butter. Butter has food
values vital to children, therefore,
give it to them. Use it only on the
table. Waste no soap. 1t is made
from fat. Be careful of all fats.
We use and waste two and half
times as much fat as we need"
'Make every day sugar saw
ing day"
Explanation: Use less sugar;
less sweet drinks and candy con-
tanning sugar should be used in
war time. AS a nation we have
used twice as much sugar as we
need"
'Use fruits, vegetables and po-
tatoes abundantly."
Explanation: These foods are
healthful and plentiful and at the
same time partly take the place of
other foods which we must save.
Raise all you can for home USE"
'Use milk wisely"
Explanation: Use all of the
milk; waste no part of it. The
children must use whole milk. Use
sour and skim milk in cooking and
for cottage cheese"
"Hoarding food. Any one buy
ing and holding larger supply of
food now than in peace time, ex-
cept food canned, dried or preserv-
ed in the home, is helping to defeat
the Food Administration in its at
tempt to secure a just division of
food and the establishment of fair
prices. The food hoarder is work
ing against the common good and
even against the very safety of the
country. Hoarding foods in house
holds is both selfish and unneces-
sary. The Government is. protect
ing the food supply Of its people"

USE LESS MEAT
AND LESS WHEAT
Food Administration Makes AddI-
ilonaI Rules Which Consumers
Are Expected to Abide BY.

Following the issuance of a pro-
clamation by President Wilson call
ing for additional food economies,
Federal Food Administrator Fred
NJ Sackett yesterday made known
TO the people of Kentucky the con-
tents of the new Kitchen Card.
This card, which supersedes the
Kitchen Card distributed during
Pledge Card Campaign Week, Octo-
Der 2Sth to November 4th, calls up
on all the people of America to OBJ
serve two wheatless days weekly,
one meatless day and one porkless
day, as well as wheatless and
meatless meal every day. Hereto
fore, only one wheatless and one
meatless day have been considered
necessary.
The new regulations are address,
ed particularly to the women who
signed the pledge cards, since they
promised to "follow the directions
and advice Of the Food Administra-
tom in so far as their circum-
stances permit. The women are
expected, however, to induce the
members of their families to follow
these directions also, and the pro-
clamation of the President makes
1t plain that the population Of
America must respond unanimously
and with a joyful heart if the war
is to be won.
Although the new restrictions
call for the abridgment of long es-
tablished habits, the new Kitchen
Gard does not impose any hard
ships. As yet, the American peo-
pie still are not required to make
any sacrifices in the matter Of food
to win the war. The most any per-
son is asked to do is to suffer some
slight inconvenience.
The new Kitchen Card, which
the President approves and hands
to the nation as book of rules
for winning the war, is as follows !:
"The Food Administration asks
every loyal American to help win
the war by maintaining rigidly as a
minimum of saving the following
program:
'Have two wheatless days Mon
day and Wednesday, in every week
and one wheatless meal in every
day.
Explanation: On wheatless days
and in wheatless meals of other
days use no crackers, pastry, maca-
roni, breakfast food or other ce-
real food containing wheat and
use no wheat -four in any form ex-
cept the small amount that may be
needed for thickening soups or
grayies or for a binder in corn
bread and other cereal breads. As
to bread, if you bake it at home
use other cereals than wheat and

TO MEMORY
OF LIEUTENANT DAVIS

only a Grave Somewhere in France
Dedicated to my nephew, Lieuten-
ant Henry Winter Davis, whose red
star has turned 20 gold.
Only a grave Somewhere in France
A simple white cross above
But il holds intact earth's priceless
gem,
A Woman's wonderful love
Maybe a mothers spirit hovers over
that grave
And her heart is buried here,
With the boy whom she gave to free
dom's cause,
In the dawn of manhood's years.
Or TO its dark cell fair young bride
May have given her all and all;
The pledge Of love It'll death shall
us part,
As he bravely answered his coun-
try's call.
A little girlish sweetheart
May mourn lover true,
As he sailed across the ocean
Under the RED. White and Blue. "
The Marine and Meuse their sequent
chant,
And blood red peoples nod;
Where rest in dreamless slumber,
Brave men beneath the sod.
The ice-bound regions Of the north.
And where the palm trees wave
Every land and every cline
Can claim a soldiers grave.
Mothers. wives and sweethearts
In that land beyond the sea,
Remember our fallen heroes,
Who had come to make you free
When the lilies and the violets.
Forget not our boys in khaki,
Shall natures beauty enhance,
Who sleep in the valleys Of France.
The eye Of God keeps swatch and
ward"
Over these soldiers graves,
And His smile is the beautiful halo
That will ever ecnircle their names

POLL TAX NOT LEVIED
AGAINST TEXAS WOMEN

Austin. Texas. Dec 81 THAT the
act Of the Thirty-Fifth Legislature
granting women the right 20 vote in
primary elections and nominating
conventions does not levy a poll tsy
on all women Of voting age. is the
opinion of State Comptroller ii. b
Terrell. and he has so advised a nun
Der Of County Tax Assessors who
have made inquiry Of the Comptroll-
er regarding this law Comptroller
Terrell construes the statute referred
10 10 mean that women who desire to
vote are granted that privilege b.
paying a poll tax as required Of male
voters, but II woman does not de-
sire to participate in primary cleo
tions. she does not have to pay a poll
tax. and County Assessors are with
out authority to levy the poll tay
against her.
In answer to an inquiry from Mrs.
Anna Bowman Of Palestine. County
Assessor Of Anderson County, Comp
troller Terrell sent the following:
Replying to your favor Of the
l4th asking for information as to
whether or not you should assess
women and place their names on the
tax rolls for poll tax. you are advis-
ed that the law passed by the called
session of the Thirty-Fifth Legisla-
ture granting women the right to
vote in all primary elections and con
ventions in this State, and requiring
the payment Of a poll tax Of all won
en- desiring 10 vote after the first dav
Of January, 1919, does not levy poll
tax on all women Of voting age.
Sec. of this act is as follows;
1.-THE provisions Of this act shall
apply and govern the voting Of won
en- in the primary elections held dur
ing the wear 1919, and from and aft
err the first Of January, 1919, each
woman voter in this State shall be re
quired TO pay the poll tax now requir
ed by law Of each male person who
desires 70 vote and shall be governed
and controlled by all the laws Of the
State Of Texas requiring and permit
ting the voting upon the payment OF
poll tax in this State
THE statute quoted above does not
levy a poll tax against all women, but
grants women who desire to vote the
privilege Of doing so by paying a poll
tax as required Of male voters. You
are therefore advised that women
should not be assessed or placed on
the tax rolls for a poll tax"
Mr.. Terrell pointed out that Art.
1854 of the revised statute. which
levies a poll tax "on every male per
son between the ages Of 81 and so"
is not a tax for the privilege Of vot-
ing. but that tax is levied on male
persons whether thew desire 20 vote
or not. The Terrell election law pen
allies the MAJ who fails TO pay this
tax by rot permitting women to vote
merely charges the woman who de-
sires TO participate in elections for
that privilege. II a woman does not
care to participate in elections. she
does not have to pay a poll tax
