RED CROSS BENEFIT
COMES TO OFTEN

George E. Scott, acting general
manager of the American Red Cross
at Washington, D. c., has sent out
n request to ill the division head
quarters to urge the uecesity Of cut
ting down the number of local bene-
fit entertainments by auxiliaries of
chapters and other groups of people
independent of the Red Cross chap
tiers. Mr.. Scott believes that such
frequent demands should not be
made upon the people, following %
closely upon the big Red Cross drive,
and requests that for the next few
months all entertainments and bene-
fits for the Red Cross be given on
ly under the supervision of the
chapter.
There are cases where the auxil-
iaries are supported by some regu'
lur plan of contribution by their
own membership, and it is not the
purpose of his suggestion to inter
fere with these arrangements where
it is agreeable to the chapter and
the auxiliary, hut it is necessary ia
stop all other attempts to raise ad'
ditionnl money.

THE MILK MARKET.

]. N. Collins Of Eaton, chairman
Of the special committee Of the State
| Council Of Defense, appointed by
Gov. julius c. Gunter, to help re-
lieve the milk situation, reported at
the last meeting Of the council that
the milk market was slightly i'm
proving and submitted an important
letter to the council that should be
Of interest in all dairying commune
ties.
The letter which was from the
head Of the canned goods division Of
the U. s. Food Administration at
Washington, said that the condensed
milk market over the entire country
has been bad for the last five months
because the allied governments had
stopped all private trading in milk
for their civil population and had
considerably reduced the amount Of
milk shipments abroad due to the
necessity for conserving shipping
space. The action, coming in con-
iuction with the period Of heavy pro-
duction, demoralized the market,
caused a decline in price and threw
upon the domestic market quantities
Of condensed milk that had been 60
ing abroad: ,.
1.-THE milk purchased by the Allied
Governments through the division OF
coordination Of purchases Of the
Food Administration" says the let
ter, "has been allotted to all COM
panies on the basis Of the proportion
Of their production to the total pro-
duction Of the country. The Love
land condensery has been somewhat
favored BY these allotments. We are
advised by the division Of coordina-
tion Of purchase that they have re-
ceived orders by allotment for 49,
iii cases. whereas to total to which
thew were entitled on the basis Of
their production was 1880 cases"
It was the inability Of the Love-
land condenserv to market its over.
supply of condensed milk that led
Governor Gunter to APPOINT the spe-
cial committee.
Further. in regard to the dairy
herd situation, the letter says: I'VE
note your statement that It is the
tendency Of dairymen to close out
their herds. We regret to hear OF
anv such action and we think that
any general dispensing of dairy herds
would be q mistake from the dairy
mans standpoint. While the de.
mand for condensed milk for export
has been somewhat Invited. we are
hoping that it will in the future to
some extent increase. Large amounts
are being purchased for our army
and navy, and these amounts are
likely to increase Is our forces IN
the field are enlarged.
"Ths demand, however, for dairy
products il not limited to the de-
mand for canned milk. For YOUR in
formation We wish to say that less
than 8 per cent Of the milk produc-
ton Of the country goes into the
making Of canned milk, whereas 20
per cent Of all the milk produced
In the country goes to the making
Of butter and cheese. This 10 to say
that most dairy communities do not
have condensary markets for their
milk, but sell to butter and cheese
makers and to distributors In fresh
milk markets. There il now good

A LOVERS HANDICAP


DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
For eight months / have been in
love with man two years my senior.
am 10. My mother has always
doubted him, because some one told
her that his left arm is u little
smaller than his right. He says that
the doctor told him that his arm is
o. X. and will never trouble him.
suggested to mother that we go to a
fortuneteller and find out and the
fortuneteller told us that when my
friend gets older he will not be able
to use his arm. Therefore, mother
wants us to break our friendship.
Now. Miss Fairfax, love this man
very dearly and he returns my love,
so 1 want to know from you what to
do.
You were a foolish girl TO think of
accepting the judgment of any one
but a doctor on a matter of this sort
IL you haven't confidence in the young
mans own physician why not ask him
10 consult some other doctor, recon-
mended by you2 But If you are so
deeply in love with the young man,
and he is eligible otherwise, why does
your mother regard an impaired left
arm as an obstacle to your marriage
with him, even though he may earn
his living with his hands? Men have
led useful and successful lives with
far greater handicaps than this, as
you should be able to convince your
mother

THE HEART BREAKER
A REAL AMERICAN LOVE STORY
by VIRGINIA TERHUNE VAN DE WATER

What are you looking so sad
about this morning."
Was l looking sad?" Honora par
ried. But she did not smile.
'Well, / can hardly blame you
for looking gloomy on such q
morning as this" Mildred COM
mented, sitting up in bed and
glancing out of the window. ITS
cloudy, isn't it?"
Yes" Honora replied, but had
not noticed it before"
Mildred decided that the best way
to reach a desired point was by a
direct and short route. She spoke
bluntly.
|. II say, Honora, what's the use of
being peeved because of what said
last night? You were cross, you
know. Yet l am willing to over
look it. When I told you what 1
did about Arthur | did not suspect
that you would be disappointed or
annoyed. Now I understand"
Honora started violently. her face
coloring.
Understand? What do you
mean?" she demanded.
'Now, don't look so startled" Mil
dred laughed, getting up and cross
| ing the room to where her sister
lay and perching on the side of Eo-
nora's bed.
Too Young to Marry
You dear old Goosie!" she teased.
II understand that you fancy if l
were to marry Arthur L would be
safe for ever afterwards. l know,
also that you have hoped l would
I do this and have planned in a harm
less way to bring it about. You
see you cannot deny it,
"But-but-I can; you don't un-
derstand. That is" Honora be-
gan confusedly.
But her sisters merry laugh at
the attempted denial, checked her
in the middle of her speech.
Don't try to get out of it," Mil
dred exclaimed. II see through 1t
all just as plainly as anything.
And 1 know that you were only
agined would be the best thing for
me and for my future. But, dear
sister, | don't want to marry any
body vet, even to please you."
You are entirely mistaken,
Milly," Honora forced herself to
say. 81 do not want you to marry
! yet You are only eighteen, re-
member-and of course that is too
young"
"Of course you do not want me
to get married just yet" Mildred
interrupted. But you would like
me to become engaged to Arthur
and marry him within the course
of a year or two"
well, Honora, just can't! For
simply do not love him, and l
never could love him. You would
not want me to accept him under
those conditions, would you?'
Most, certainly not!" Honora de-
clared emphatically. Then, to the
younger girls astonishment, she
put her arms about her and kissed
her. II am sorry spoke as

CHAPTER IN.

NIlAIlLIk la
AS has been said, Mildred Brents
temper, while quick, was not of the
enduring variety. Moreover, to re-
main at odds with anyone with
whom she met must live was an un-
comfortable condition of affairs.
And she disliked to be uncomfort-
able.
So on the Monday morning fol-
lowing Arthur's declaration of af-
fection, she awoke and lay still for
few moments, remembering that
the last words that she and her sis
ter had exchanged before sleeping
had been decidedly unfriendly.
Then, as she glanced towards
Honora, she recalled all that had
taken place.
One reason she recalled this was
that Honora lay, her arms crossed
under her head, her eyes fixed on
the boughs of the maple tree out
side of her window. She did not
know that Mildred was yet awake,
and the younger girl had time to
note, unobserved, that her sisters
face was very grave and her eyes
moody in their thoughtfulness.
Honora had been cross last night.
Yet perhaps she had not meant it.
But why had she resented the fact
that her younger sister had refused
Arthur Bruce? What business was
it of hers?
Then, all at once, what she be-
lieved might be an explanation of
her sisters displeasure occurred to
her.
Honora was so anxious to see her,
Mildred, safely settled in life that
she had hoped she was going to
marry Arthur Bruce!
The idea seemed very feasible.
All Honora's actions pointed in
that direction.
She had appeared to be especially
Interested in Arthur lately, and had
spoken in his favor and as his
champion whenever an opportunity
to do so offered itself.
On tho automobile drive, she had
offered to sit by Mrs. Bruce-un-
doubtedly with the intention of
throwing the two young people to-
gether.
The following night, Honora had
taken herself off to church with
Mrs. Higgins so that Arthur might
have fair field and every chance
" SOY "llib was III 1ilo llCtAlts
And in spite of all these plans
and hopes, Mildred had refused him
and had told Honora of it. No Won
der Honora was disappointed.
1t was but natural that, in the
first flush of this disappointment,
she had spoken a little sharply.
She had only busted herself with
this matchmaking scheme because
she wanted her little sister to be
happily and luXuriously settled in
life.
A Free Field
Having reached this very flatter-
ing conclusion, said little sister"
decided to pave the way for a re-
turn to amicable and affectionate
relations.
Rolling over on her side so that
she faced the other bed, she
stretched, yawned and opened her
eyes.
Hello, Sister," she said cheerily
