 Harvey D. Gibson, the highest au- thority in the land, states that "Chap- ter funds should be used so far as needed for the welfare of the families of soldiers and sailors in that commun- ity, even if the result must be the cur tailing of work along other lines"
 1t should be constantly borne in mind that the families of our soldiers and sailors, when they sent one of their loved one to the front, made a larger contribution to the winning of the war than any individual money contribution to Red Cross, Y. M. c.

KNIFE ON C0RNS
 CAUSES L0CKJAW
Tells How to Loosen a Tender Corn So it Lifts Out Without
 Pain,


 You reckles men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once week invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by Cincinnati author ity to use drug called freezone, which the moment a few drops are applied to any corn, the soreness is relieved and soon the entire corn, rot and all, lifts out with the fingers.
 It is sticky substance which dries the moment it is applied and is said to simply shrivel the corn without in- flaming or even irritating the sur rounding tissue or skin. It is claimed that a quarter of an ounce will cost very little at any of the drug stores, but is sufficient to rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn or callus.
 You are further warned that cutting at corn is suicidal habit.-Advt.

ROSCOE c. SIMMONS
 DRAWS GREAT CROWD

Rosco Conkling Simmons, one of the greatest negro orators of the age, delivered a patriotic lecture at the tabernacle last night before very large crowd. He told why the negro is and should be just as patriotic as the white man.
 Simmons is a nephew of the late Booker T. Washington, and is quite as effective as an orator as was his distinguished uncle. He has com- mand of the English language that is very fine and is a reasoner of great ability He has spoken in most of the big cities of the country and has an enviable reputation as an orator.
 It was estimated that more negroes were present at the lecture than had ever before assembled in Jefferson county-if not in Arkansas.
 Mayor Simon Bloom was to have made the address of welcome, but be- cause of the condition of his throat, Judge E. J. Kerwin spoke in his place: Dr. F. P. Lytes acted as master of ceremonies, introducing the speaker.
 A chorous of more than 100 voices, led by Fred R. Work, furnished the music. ', Simmons told why the negro should not emigrate to the north and explain ed the great tribute to the flag they all should pay.
 The meeting was a great success from a financial standpoint, although as large a number of white people as were expected were not present.

FARMER LAbORERS MUST GO WHEN
 QUOTA CALLED
Men Cannot oe Deferred Be- yond Last Batch of Each
 Boards New Quota.

Many planters of the county have obtained mistaken idea of the new regulation allowing the local boards to defer the call of bona fide farm laborers in the next draft, says Chief Clerk Ben Harvey of board Mo- }.
 The instructions received by the board, according to MT. Harvey, only allow such men to be held until the last batch of select men in the quota called is sent up. They must report when the time limit for supplying that quota is up. Thus if BOG men were called as that boards quota and they were to be sent to camp in patches of 20, the first men to be sent would be the men not employed in farm work, but the farm laborers could nc e deferred beyond the time ne ts%e. !im5t f0' ,e''ing the entire quota to

SALTS FINE FOR
 ACHING KIDNEYS
We Eat Too Much Meat Which Clogs Kidneys, Then the Back
 Hurts.

Most folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, get sluggish and clog ged and need flushing occasionally. else we have backache and dull mis- cry in the kidney region, severe head aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liv- CT, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders.
 You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidneys region, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take tablespoonful in a glass of wa ter before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them. to normal activity. It also neu- tralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.
 Jad Salts: is harmless; enexpensiye: make a delightfulse efferxeseent :lithia- water drink (which everybody should take now and then to keep their kid neys clean, thus ,avoiding.serio con- plications. .,.ss ~
 A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of lad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble.

Hun Commander Not Identified
 Just who is in command of the Ger man forces seems to be somewhat in doubt. Late dispatches report that , Field Marshal von Hindenberg has been at Dvinsk, in the Russian thea Ire, and German war correspondents asserts that General von Ludendorff not only planned the offensive but was on the ground last Friday person. ally to control the attack.
 Massing to Attack Italians.
 On the other battlefronts the op- erations continue of minor character, but daily the situation in Italy gives greater indication that an offensive against the Italians is in prospect. Large endorsements continue to be drawn up behind the lines by the Aus trians and Germans, and the artillery activity on the whole front is growing more intense. The fresh men being sent to this theatre are said to have been drawn heavily from the Ruman- ian line.
 Germans Lose Odessa.
 In Russia the situation again at tracts attention by reason of the fact that Ukrainians and the Bolsheviki have recaptured Odessa from the Teu- tonic allies, and in addition now Hold the important town of Nikolayed, Kherson and Zmananka. Reports al 80 have it that Cossack General Korni- offs troops have been surrounded by the Bolesheviki.
 U-BOats Score Heavily.
 As was to be expected. the Ger mans, with their attack in France re- opened last week strong submarine at tacks against British and allied ship ping. Twenty-eight merchantmen flying the British flag were sent to the bottom, Is of them being of 1,60O tons or over and 12 of smaller tonnage. The previous week IF British mer- chantmen of both categories were des- ttroyed. The Italians during the week lost three steamers and six sailing vessels in submarine attacks.

Work of Civilian Relief and Home Service
 of the American Red Cross

One of the most interesting depart ments, and one few people have a clear understanding of, is the bureau of Civ lhan Relief and Home Service Depart ment of the Local Chapter of the American Red Cross.
 Thru this department a soldier, no matter where he is, who is lonely or worried about his wife or any mem bers of his family-perhaps having heard that they are i'll and not receiv- ing further details imagines all sorts of calamitles, may get direct and al most immediate news from them or they from him.
 There IS a camp director at each cantonment and the Home Service de paltment maintains a close touch with him at all times so that news for the family. or for the soldier or sailor, may be gained promptly and officially.
 The following notice which is post ed in each cantonment has proved a life saving station to man va poor worried soldier lad:
 Are you anxious about the home folks? Wife lonely, inexperienced or worried? Kid brother or sister need advice? Rent due? Insurance due? Sickness? Family need protection or assistance in any respect?
 "The Red Cross Field director at your camp will look after it. Tell him or vour captain about it'
 Is it any wonder that Lord Kitchen CT said in his last talk before sailing out to hs doom, "The Red Cross in creases the efficiency of any army 75 per cent"

A., or what not. It follows that any aid, financial Or otherwise, given to these families is an act of public jus tee and has nothing to be with charity. Also. is should be remembered that these families write letters to their loved ones in camp and that those let ters will make happy or discontented soldier or sailor in accordance with what the letter contains. Therefore, it is up to Civilian Relief to Icok after the welfare of the families of soldiers and salors n order that the morale of our boys at the front may be kept at the very highest possible point.
