which are on the second floor of the
Federal Of Postoffice building, are
open to strangers or residents at all
times.
The secretary, Miss Ginsberg, stattH

Twas bright and blue;
Around it's shores were life
And verdant hut.
Twas fed by many rills
With fountain source
On Herman's snowy peak
Whence Jordan's course.
But Galilee's blue sea
Lives not alone,
Because it gets these streams
As all its own.
IT lives because IL gives
It's waters blue
To other shores, and then

One of the teachers is usually
made chairman of the auxiliary, but

hearty cooperation of all teachers is
essential to success. The other offic-
es may be filled by some of the larg-
er pupils.
Have at least one period week

lined in Junior Red Cross handbook.
This may include the story of the
Red Cross, the history and geography
of the allied countries, drills on san
Ration and personal hygIene-any-
thing that tends to make strong, well
informed citizens. A short setting
up drill every day in the open, with
deep breathing never omitted, will
add much to the health of the pupils.
Secure the cooperation of some of
the women of the neighborhood.
Make scrap quilts 65 inches by 70
inches finished. and adopt as many
French orphans as possible. Three
dollars month payable monthly,

WEATHER AND CROPS

The government summary of the
weather and crov conditions in Ten
nessee for the week ending Aug. 20
says: All crops suffered from the
heat and drought, but the effects
were comparatively slight in the east
ern counties. In the middle and
western divisions there was a decid-
ed deterioration in the condition of
corn and cotton, while all other
crops, such as tobacco, potatoes, pea
nuts, peas, beans, and garden truck.
suffered considerably. Local rains
the last few days made the condi-
tions much more favorable by the
end of the week. but more rain is
needed, especially in the middle and
western divisions. Corn now prom
ises nan average only a fairly good
crop, but there are vossibilities of fu
ture improvement. The condition of
cotton has fallen from excellent to
good on account of drought and rust.
Some falling off of bolls is reported
and some is opening prematurely.
Tobacco is quite variable in condi-
tion, but averages fairly good. Top
ping is going on. In the eastern to-
bacco area some is about ready to
cu,. Potatoes and peanuts promise
fairly good crops.
