BOSTON BACKWARD
NCLOTHING DRIVE
Red Cross Appeals for Imme-
diate Response to Meet
Quota of 5000 Tons

Boston. March 20.
Boston did not respond very generous
ly yesterday in the first day OF the
drive by Boston Metropolitan Chapter
Of the American Red Cross for 336 tons
Of good, used and surplus clothing. Bos-
toms allotment Of the 5000 tons which
tho American Red Cross has pledged
itself to raise in the week prior to
March 20.
THE early response has been light"
said Frederick winsor. director OF the
campaign. "and feel that II is purely
because the people Of Greater Boston do
not realize the urgent necessity of early
contributions. Many look ahead to eight
days Of collections, and feel that they
may take their time in getting their
supplies together and sending them to
headquarters. While. OF course. we shall
need the supplies late in the drive. the
supply also must come early-right off,
tomorrow, and IL must keep on coming
in constantly Increasing stream
through the rest OF the week, or no
amount of workers will bo able to ac-
compish the great work Of sorting, fold
ing, packing and shipping in time.
Even with the supplies coming in
rapidly, II is a matter of packing at
least one of the great wooden cases
each minute through an eight-hour day
for the rest of the drive. IL Greater
Boston Is to send its quota on time
Boston isn't in the habit Of falling dowr
in relief work. and l am confident thai
as soon as the urgency Of the mattei
is realized the supplies will begin tC

Eat Potatoes and
Raise Potatoes

From Lesson in the course on Food
and the War" by Prof. J. Russell Smith,
given IN Philadelphia public schools.
Eat potatoes and raise potatoes. Not
only can we all eat potatoes and spare
the wheat but almost every boy and girl
in America can raise at least few hills
of potatoes this year. Nearly every
child can get square yard of earth, a
potato TO plant, and he can borrow hoe
| to cultivate 1t and keep the weeds away.
War gardens and potatoes are part
of the plans of patriotic boys and girls
| for 1918. How many potatoes will you
| plant? If you plant some. will you care
| for them perfectly? That is one way in
which you can help in winning this great
war.
II is only a Stacker who plants pota-
toes or plants a garden and does not
care for 1t. Not only does he miss get
ting a crop, but he has wasted time
seeds and ground.
Footnote to teacher: Be sure to re-
view this lesson at potato-planting sea
son and urge every one who can Ia
plant potatoes. 1t is suggested that part
of the required work In composition be
based on actual experiences OF the pu.
pills In planting and growing food plants
If students want to know how to grow
potatoes and other garden crops, tAAy
can get a good bulletin on the sunRDci
by sending q postal card to the c(Ets
Agricultural College, STATE Collge, Pa.

Order in the Sewing Room

Usually the sewing room Is a small
unused room never intended for any
thing more than Il storeroom and not
provided with closets. If this is the
ease il Is "a splendid idea on the part OF
the woman who does much sewing to
have n frame built in a corner of the
roOm--she could almost do II herself
upon which she can hang curtains and
in Which she can keep out of dust and
harms way the garments upon which
she is working
Rows of shelves upon which plainly
labeled boxes for patches can be laid in
good view are an addition to any sewing
room. This is work for the carpenter
or the man Of the house but will repay
both time and money expended in time
and labor saved.
The sewing room should have as good
light as an artists studio. Sometimes a
skylight let into n dark closet will 1T
orally make convenient sewing room.
