RED CROSS FIGHTS
DEADLY EPIDEMIC

Besides the special work conducted
throughout the country In checking
the recent epidemic Of Spanish Infiu-
epza. the organization through Its
headquarters at Washington Is prepar-
Ing to fight repetition Of the expert
ence that was so disastrous this fall,
educating the public thoroughly re-
garding the symptoms and the proper
care at the beginning Of an attack. In
addition to this, the American Red
Cross IS fighting tuberculosis. The re-
cent appropriation to the National Tu-
berculosis Association will be used for
educational as well as relief work
throughout the country.
So much has been said about the
aftermath of the epidemic that espe-
cial attention is being given to the
work along this line. The weakness
which follows influenza leaves the pa
tient In condition which makes him
good field for the germs Of tubercu-
losis. A thorough physical examina-
ton, proper food and clothing. the use
of mild preventives, will check the
progress of the disease at once.
tuberculosis, or consumption, as 1t
is frequently called, Is both preventa-
BILE and durable, provided the treat
ment Of the disease Is begun before 1t
is too far advanced. Medicine plays q
comparatively small part The fire.
Quently advertised consumption
cures" should be looked upon as poi.
son. The only medicine which should
be taken is good tonic which will
stimulate the appetite and build up
the system generally. The main cure
lies in proper food, sufficient rest,
fresh air and sunlight and living, IL
possible, according to the plan pre-
scribed by good physician. This re-
news the patients vitality and soon
kills the disease entirely.
For several years the National Tu-
berculosis Association has been financ-
ing its woik by the sale of Red Cross
seals at Christmas time. The seals
sold for a penny each and by making
a concerted effort enough money was
usually raised to carry the work
through the year This year there will
be no seals sold because the American
Red Cross has made an appropriation
for the anti-tubercuiosis work, and
those who formerly spent their time
selling seals will join in the work for
the Red Cross Christmas Roll Call
during the week of December 10 to %. |

RHoNDDA MAKES PLEA
FOR STRICT ECONOMY
IN FOOD CONSUMPTION

LONDON, Jan. 19.-Appealing to
the people to economize. Baron
Rhondda, food controller. today de-
clared that there is greater difficulty
now in obtaining adequate food sup
plies than at any time since the be-
ginning of the war.
He said he did not wish TO raise
unnecessary alarm, but that it has
become absolutely imperative that
strict economy measures be taken.
To avert a meat famine, he said. It
would be necessary to reduce the
consumption of meat for the next
few weeks. He urged that potatoes
be largely eaten and also be used
for the making of bread.
Compulsory rationing will become
effective on February %, it is an

counties and later throughout the

must be used for every purchase.
Endless skeins of red tape and
muddle loom ahead of London, and
the people are bewildered, Many
butcher shops have already closed
their doors.
Thousands OF munitIon workers al

their tools and demanded a scheme

AMERICAN WAR aims

Austro Hungarian foreign minister. Is

Czernin was quoted in an interview
reaching here as asserting:
ut will not be the annexationists'
view which will end the Brest Litovsk
meetings. For our part we wish to
maintain friendly relations. We do
not want territory or indemnities.
