The sea coast echo. [volume] (Bay Saint Louis, Miss.) 1892-current, 1918-09-28

Two Red Cross drives are on:
One to collect hand towels and
sheets for hospitals in France Sept
ember 30-Oct 7th, and the other to
collect peach stones, fruit pits and
nut shells to make carbon to protect
soldiers from German poison gas.
Beginning Sepember goth, Han
cock County Chapter of the American
Red Cross will celebrate Linen
week"
This big linen shower comes in an
swer to a request from the Red Gross
commission in France for linens to
be used in hospitals. 1t is on account
of the difficulty of purchasing these
articles inlarge quantities, that the
Red Cross appeals to the generosity
of the people.
Here are the dimensions of the
linen articles and none other will
be accepted:
Hand towels, 18 x30 inches; sheets,
81 120 inches; with two-inch hem
at the top and one inch hem at the
bottom.
The sheets should be of heavy un-
bleached muslin and Of strong rather
than fine texture They may be either
new or substantially new but they
must all be clean. The Red Cross
stresses this latter point about til ar
ticles sent to it's headquarters.
Mrs. A. F. Fournier is Chairman
of both Drives and will have speci-
al committee that will conduct we'll
organized house to house campaign.
Let every one get their sheets
and towels ready. There is scarcely
any one that could not give towel.

House Passes Revenue Bill


House Passes Revenue Bill.
Washington, D. c., Sept. 2O-On a
roll call, with three hundred and fiftv
members voting aye and without a
vote in opposition, the House TODAY
passed the new Revenue Bill which
now goes to the Senate for it's consid-
Grafton. The bill was passed bv the
house without any material changes
from the form in which it was agreed
to by the Committee on WAYS and
Means and introduced in the House on
September 3. The amount of revenue
provided to be raised by the bill this
year is nearly equal to one-third of
the total amount of revenue raised
from all sources by the United States
government during the time from it's
organization up to the time of our en-
trance into the European war.
Housing Facilities for War Workers,
The Industrial Housing Bureau of
the Department of Labor is making
every possible effort to hurry the con-
structlon Of government dormtories
to provide accommodations for the
large number of government en-
pioyes that war work in different de-
partments OF the Government has
necessitated bringing to Washington.
The new dormitories will be three
story tile and stucco structures. Ex-
teriorly the buildings will have the
appearance Of modern apartment
buildings. The interior of the dormi-
tories will be finished with pine and
comprehend. The plans provide for
all modern accommodations. The
rooms will be rented to Government
employees at reasonable rental
charges to be fixed by the Industrial
Housing Bureau of the Department of
Labor. At the present time, the Bu-
reau has under construction four solid
blocks of these dormitory buildings
on the Capitol Park grounds between
the Capitol and the Union Station
The buildings now under construction
will provide for the accommodation OF
five thousand war workers. It is ex-
pected that these buildings will be
completed and ready for occupancy
before the first of next January. The
cost of the construction and furnish
ing Of the. buildings is to be paid out
of the appropriation of fifty million.

gress to provide housing accommo
dations for those engaged in wal

in different parts of the country.
Agricultural Appropriation Bill.
Chairman Lever of the Committee
on Agriculture has given notice that
he will call up this week for considera-
ton the Agricultural Appropriation
Bill which was vetoed on July IL by
President Wilson, because it carried
provision fixing the minimum price of
No. Northern spring wheat at $2.4O
per bushel. The bill will be reported
from the Agricultural Committee
without the provision for fixing the
price of wheat which was objected to
by the President. Chairman Lever ex-
poets to be able to prevent any am
endment being added to the bill direct
ing the fixing Of a minimum price of
wheat for the year 1919 at more than
$500 a bushsl.
War Time Prohibition.
On Monday or Tuesday of next
week, the House will be given an OPP
portunity during the consideration Of
the Food Production Bill to vote on
the question of prohibiting the man.
ufacture and sale of intoxicating liq-
uors during the period of the war. In
dications are that majority of the
House will support the provision in
the bill which has already been ad-
opted by the Senate. This provides
for the prohibition during the war Of
the manufacture of all Intoxicating
liquor after May l, 1919, and for the
prohibition of the sale for beverage
purposes of all Intoxicating liquor af-
ter July l, 1919.

Mrs. A. D. McGill, wife of Col. Nc
Gill, former salesman for F. A. Pat
rick & Co., of Duluth, who made his
headquarters in Minot about fifteen
years ago, passed away at her home
near Angie, N. D. The McGills re-
sided in Minot for several years where
the deceased won a host of friends
who will regret to learn of her demise.
The following from the Ray Pho
neer tells Of her death:
Mrs. A. D. McGill, of the Angie
neighborhood, passed away on We'd
nesday night, Sept. II. The funeral
services were conducted from the
home on Sunday morning at II o'clock
by Rev. Halfpenny. A large number
of friends and relatives were present
to pay their last tribute of respect
to Mrs. McGill. She had been i'll for
about five weeks but only during the
last few days previous to her death
was her condition considered serious.
She was GO years Of age and besides
her husband she leaves three sons:
William and Fred Of Duluth, Mimi,
and Donald of Angie, all of whom
were present during the illness and
death of their mother. Mrs. McGill
came to this country with her family

L burbled enthusiastically TO Madame
over new afternoon frock which she
wanted, and which was to be very I'M
usual indeed. ut must be smart enough
to be appropriate anywhere. but don't
want 1t too conspicuous for street wear"
Madame smiled. She is used to very
involved specifications from this source.
Mrs Dillon is a tall. graceful person
almost anything. but whose vivid red
hair imposes great caution when it
comes to the aH-important decision
about color. She always wants the I'M
usual-both IN color combinations and
in design-and Madame usually creates
something quaint for her. for she can
carry off unique designs with dash.
The model We trotted out for her in
spection was one of the very latest Of
Madame's ideas. 1t suggests vaguely
simple peasant costume in its straight
line from the shoulder to the waist,
something of the Russian blouse in its
squareness. but it seems to mould itself
to the figure, setting off beautifully
every supple curve.
Against Mrs. Di1Ion's mass of bright
hair the color stood out strikingly. The
bodice and skirt are of dull green vel
vet and are snugiy fitted with very little
fulness IN either skirt or waist. In or
der to supply a little fulness to break
the similarity of line between skirt and
blouse. Madame introduced a clever
little touch. The front of the waist,
ending at the hipline, is turned up. sailor
fashion. But this fold Is transformed
into two smart pockets at either side.
These pockets. as well as the end of
the waist. which is turned up, are en-
brodered in self-colored worsted. In
back a large bow of velvet and long
sash ends finish the waistline, and have
