BRAVE MEN WORTH WHILE
Face Perlls of War Without a Whim.
per, Smile When They Suffer, Says
v. A. D. Nurse.

'While there is none of the TO-
NANCE that the magazine writers and
story spinners have woven around
our work, yet life is not half SO drab
as it was in the days of my proba-
tionship in the old hospital" writes
a nurse, who before going overseas
served for two years in one of the big
Canadian city hospitals.
"Sister R, who has charge of
the next ward, told us a touching
story that has all the elements of
tragedy and romance in it. She sayS
that young soldier in her ward suf-
fered torture from a gaping wound
in his side and yet never whimpered.
He was always CHEEKY. One day the
sister said to him, DO you ever have
q good cry all to yourself when you
are alonep 'Eh, no. he said,
'what'd be the use? You must keep
smiling And then his face sudden
ly altered as he said:
ooh, but l did cry once. I'll tell
you when. I got a letter from my
old dad telling me to come home as
soon as l could, as there was an old
man who could still do days work
and who would never let me want for
anything as long as / lived. l cried
then
"These are the little things that
happen now and then and set you
thinking When l go off duty | am
going to see that boy. He is worth
while."'

Home Service Section

The Red Cross Home Service
Section of Meade County is rend'
.ering valuable service to the boys
Of this COuntry's Forces. They
are helping the families of these
men in many ways, especially in
explaining to them the provisions
of the War Risk Insurance. Law
az it relates to allotments, allow
ances, conpensations, and insur.
ance.
The Home Service Section
sends letters to all the men who
are called by the Draft Board to
20 the cantonments inviting
them to come to the Home Ser
vice Office where the work of the
committee is explained and
many perplexing problems
which are worry the boys are
solved. Often times the mere
fact that the Soldier boy to be,
learns that the Home Service
Section is in existance to help
take care of his loved ones while
he is away, lifts a great load of
worry from his mind. The boys
in this county are leaving us
without these family worry.
General Pershing has SAID,
ga worried soldier is poor sold
ier", and it is the aim of the
Home Service Section of our
Red Cross Chapter to see that
every reasonable service is given
to the soldiers family, as moth.
ing can destroy the morale of a
soldier morethan worry about;the
peace, safety, and health of his
loved ones at home.
The member of the Home
Service Section of this section
will be very glad to be of service
to the enlisted men.

BEST RESULTS FROM FURNACE
Larger Fire Pot Burns a Lot Of Coal
Slowly, While Smaller One Con-
sumes q Little Fuel Rapidly.

The editor of a coal magazine in
the American Magazine tells how tc
use your coal. He says:
"a house furnace works best wher
a lot of coal is burning slowly in it.
'To illustrate: l have a seven
room house. In it is a'furnace with
a fire pot that is but 10 inches across
and about IL inches deep. 1t should
be "a or 26 inches across, and 18 to
20 inches deep. Because that fur
mace is too small [ have to shovel
coal four to six times a day. Twice
o day is enough. To have installed
the larger furnace when the house
was built would have cost but $35
more. 1t costs me 500 year more
than necessary to run the small one
That is the difference between burn
ing a little coal fast and burning a
lot of it slowly.
"Jn my furnace the hot water is
carried away from my boiler by inch
and-a-half pipes. They should have
been two and a half inches. Far less
effort is required to force water
through a big pipe than a little
one. When small pipes are used an
unnecessary amount of the power in
the coal is used to force the water
through small pipes. That is, the
heat is used up in the basement in
pumping water through the pipes in
stead of being used in the living
rooms to give heat"

BABY Registration Day

The second year of the war
should be marked by determined
Nationwide effort on behalf OF
childhood. Other warning coun-
tries have learned that national
security requires the protection
of children. They are proving
their conviction by extraordin,
ary effort and large expenditure.
The Children's Bureau of the
United States Departmental Lab
or and the Child Welfare Depart
ment of the Woman's Committee
of the Council of Defense are
therefore calling upon the Unit
ed States to heed the experience
c-pf Europe and to make the sec
ond year of the war, in fact as
we'll as in name, a Children's 8
Year throughout the country.
An analysis of the first draft
examination revealed the tact
that one-third of all young men
examined were rejected most
aof them for causes which dated
from some neglect during early
childhood. Need anything fur
tber be said as to the need or
the advisability of this campaign
or for the necessity for our par
sticipating in it?
In the State of Kansas, the w.
CT. u. has been assigned the
work of getting the babies regis.
tired and the registration will
include all children up to i've
years old.
You will want to know wheth-
azer your baby weighs and meas
ures what he should at his age.
In due time you will receive fur
fher notice, through the press, OF
the plans for registration and
the place where such will be
held, also the date, which will
be some time the latter part OF
June.
Remember, this Child Welfare
Work has the sanction of the U.
S. Government, and is being done
that the death rate amoung bab-
les may be lessened.
Watch for further information
which will appear after the cam
paign has been more completely
organized.

The women of America, who are
anxious to do their great part in the
winning of the war, are now, as a
whole, familiar with the most impor-
tant aspects of food conservation. The
Home Gard, both in its original form
and in the revised edition for 1918,
which provides for two wheatless days,
one meatless day week, in addition
to wheatless meal every day, has been
placed by the Food Administration aft.
er a vigorous campaign in 100000
American homes. An intelligent and
conscientious observance of the Home
Cards requirements is all the Food
Administration asks of the housewives
of the country.
The Food Administration has had O
great many requests, however, particu-
larly from the homes of the well-to- do,
that it should issue worked out plan
for voluntary system of rationing.
This desire for voluntary ration
springs from two causes-first, be-
cause it is far simpler for the house.
wife to save food when she has a con.
crete working plan by which to pro-
ceed, and, second, because the loyal
women of America desire, unseIfishIy,
to put themselves on the same basis
as the women of the Allied countries.
The ration proposed by the Food Ad-

that adopted In England for voluntary
observance. All over the United King
