CANTEEN WORK IN SISTER CITY

It IS always interesting to note what other cities are doing during these war times, especially in Red Cross work,
 and Mrs. H. H. Corson of Nashville, who so ably and cleverly handles the publicity for the Red Cross of that city, gives out a most interesting statement concerning the "Canteen" work there Among other things Mrs. Corson re- cords:
 The local canteen service is doing marvellous work. It has marvellous work to do. General Leonard Wood is authority for the statement that the first 7S hours of the enlistment of a drafted man is the greatest influence on his attitude toward his work and 1 his success as soldier. And he fur ther states: T don't know of anything that is more likely to get our boys into the prooer frame of mind than to see at every station as they go to the tran- ing camps, Red Cross women who are | there as an evidence that the folks at home care"
 One may not realize it, but it is un- doubtedly true that though the mem | bers of the canteen committee do noth- ling more than go down to the station ! in uniform to say Hello as the train stops half minute, or to wave to it as it goes by without even stopping the lcheer is well worth while to these draft | ed men,"
 l The following report from the sub committee of supplies for the canteen service, shows what is dispersed to passing troop trains (and for the month | of June also to the camp" by this h part of the Nashville Red Cross chap 1 ter work:
 "Purchased-120 gallons ice cream, $110; $500 ice cream cones, $25; ice cream service, $7; 5000 sticks candy, $33.75; 16,000 post cards, $50; 15,000 ci- garettes, $60; one bunch bananas, $375; l1h bushels apples, $2; 12 boxes chew 1 ing gum, $f4; dozen cans potted meat, $1.57; 52 boxes matches, $2. SO; pounds sugar, 43 cents.
 There was given, besides the cash ! 500 envelops; 500 sheets writing paper with Nashville Canteen Service espe- cially printed at the top of each sheet;
 4590 cigarettes; 10 quarts of preserves; | half gallon peanut butter; one box
 crackers; 400 paper bags; IS decks of cards; 35 dozen pencils; five pounds
 chewing tobacco; two rolls paper tow cling; one duster; two sponges; one broom; one clock

"CARRY ON"

In, use at the front today there is short phrase of but two words that contains perhaps more of the noble, more of the sublime. than any other phrase of all time. This simple phrase, Garry on," expresses more real pa triotism, more idea of self sacrifice and more idealism than the entire Eng fish language put together.
 On the battlefield in the cold gray dawn through the rising mists the captain gathers his men about him and leads the charge across the grim deso- lation of No Mans Lands But, when a bullet lays him low. when halfway across that expanse. does he stop then to call for the stretcher- bearer? In

Half Your Living
Without Money Cost

We are all at danger point. On
the use of good common sense in our
1918 farm and garden operations de-
ponds prosperity or our "going broke"
Even at present high prices no one
can plant all or nearly all cotton, buy
food and grain at present prices from
supply merchant on credit and make
money. Food and grain is higher in
proportion than are present cotton
prices.
It's a time. above all others to play
safe; to produce all possible food,
grain and forage supplies on your own
acres; to cut down the store bill.
A good piece of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay nearly half your living 1t
will save you more money than you
made on the best three acres of cotton
you ever grew!

about the right kind of a money saw

Believe no statement until you have
proof of it's conclusiveness, which may
be derogatory to the Red Cross or to
the Red Cross nurses or workers.
That is my considered advice to all
persons who may hear stories such
as these repeated. Further, you are
quite safe in denying anything derog-
atory to the Red Cross before you
get the proof, because the Red Cross
service is above reproach.
The moral welfare of the soldier,
the physical welfare of the man in

OF the folk al home. 1t is through
the homefolk that the enemy seeks

If your orchard is young a crop of
cotton or corn may well be grown in
it this season. Leave a strip six to
eight feet wide for the trees, and

be grown. DO not grow anything,
however, that will interfere with the
