hugeness of the task is i'm itself in
spring. For America is asked to feed
not only her own army, and keep it
going, but to feed enormous armies of
her allies and keep them going.
Other nations have been able to pro-
duce food and clothing and munitions
for their own great armies. But no
other nation has ever been asked to
do so for other countries while taking
| care of her own. America occupies "A

GERMANN'S FOOD CRISIS.

Washington star: For the past two
years reports of starvation in Germany
have circulated again and again but al
ways with prompt denial. These stories
came from travellers, seldom from Gcr-
many direct Lately there has been a
cessation of them, and it has SCENE
that the food situation within Germany
had improved. Now however, come
statements by Berlin newspapers to the
effect that the food conditions within
the empire are intolerably bad. The
Berliner Tageblatt the other day stated
that city dwelers were awaiting the
winter with anxious concern and serious
fear; the foodstuffs prospects were more
uniavorable than AT any time during
the war, and there was danger, in addi-
tion to high prices, which had become
a terrible burden on the masses, that
not even the most absolutely necessary
foodstuffs could bc considered as as
sured.
Supplementing this conservative state.
mcnt the Bcrliner Norwaerts in what
is described as plain.spoken attack ON
the food controller, declares that great
! masses OF tnt German people are not
only hungry, but are literally starving
Condemning the war prolteers and mil
! ionaires who have boarded food, it
states that the middle class is spending
all il possesses on food, while forty
millions of the masses are starving and
are unlikely to sit silent" The Nor-
waerts adds these highly significant
| words:
we might have within month an
absolute catastrophe IN Germany and a
collapse even worse than the Russian

of the war

WORKERS NEEDED.


The cry for Red Cross aid is heard
every day. The response is being made,
but perhaps not as freely as might have
been expected. 1t is necessary for each
of US to realize the duty we owe to
every enlisted man, whether he wears
the United States uniform or that of
one of our allies. 1t is the thing that
each should be proud to do, every mo-
ment of service that can possibly be
afforded
Red Cross work is work, and it re-
quires some sacrifice to put in ones
time in the workroom, but sacrifice is
the thing that will win this war Sacri-
flee makes possible almost anything
upon which the doer centers interest.
There are many women in Ardmore
who are sacrificing many things to
make the proper conduct of the Red
Cross workroom possible. These women
are not only willing and anxious to
make these sacrifices but will 20 fur
ther and deprive themselves of still
more things in order to carry ON the
work
What is most needed is more women,
more pairs of hands to make the work
greater even than it has been. The
rooms are comfortably heated well ven
tilated and there is room for far more
workers than are reporting for service.
The statement was made that it is pos
sible for two shifts of fifty women each
to work each day in the week at the
Convention Hall workroom. Surely in
a city of 10000 people there should be
found 600 women willing to give a half
days time each week to this noble work.
If this were possible; if the worluoom
strength could be enlisted to that num-
Der, it would be possible not only to
turn out a greater number of supplies
but some of the women who are giving
every day to the work could have oc.
casional relief.
Red Cross work is not for women
alone. Men who can spare a half day
each week, or a few hours at a time
can find themselves of real assistance
Boys who are willing to give some time
to the work will find not only worthy
employment, but will attain valuable
knowledge of the essentials of war relief
And, lastly, there is always need for
support other than the work of the
women men and boys who are to work
with their hands. You who have joined
the Red Cross in the Christmas drive
have just begun. You enlisted your
hearts and souls, and your membership
was secured at a nominal expense. Now
come forward with your hands and your
dollars and make the work of the Red
Cross the sort that will make you proud
Of the fact that Ardmore not only far
exceeded its membership quota but is
also carrying forward the work to the
extent of its utmost ability.

about time to learn whether there is

THE RUSSIAN boil WEEvIL." :"

A paragrapher on a Chicago daily
has facetiously referred to the bolshev-
Xxi as the Russian Boil Weevil" This
sally produces more than amusement,
The boil weevil is one of our most de-
structive pests. We, in the south, real
ize the harm of it's ravages more than
they in the north, to whom cotton
means only finished cloth.
The boil weevil has brought hardship,
encouragement, even ruin to the cotton
raiser of the south. The government
has spent as much or more effort in
it's eradication than it has directed
against any other pest. The boil weevil,
the cotton pest has never been re-
garded as other than most destructive
evil What would we think if the weevil
should suddenly change its nature and
instead of destroying cotton, act as an
agent to bring about a larger yield?
The Russian weevil has been regarded
as our most threatening pest in the
great war. But it now begins to APP
pear that perhaps the Russian pest will
prove a blessing in disguise. Yester-
days dispatches from Petrograd give
excerpts from a pamphlet which the
bolsheviki are circulating in the German
lines, in which it is declared that the
peace conditions submitted by the cen
tral powers show the Austro-German
promises of a democratic peace to be
"unconscionable lies" In other words
the bolsheviki is telling the German
soldiers that the masters of the Teu-
tons in service are common liars.
What if the German soldiers are con.
vinced that their masters are common
liars" that the soldiers are being used
