A CHEERING Word.

If somebody tells you that the aver
age life of an officer in the trenches IS
nine days and that if your boy gets
into the front line he is certain to be
killed within two weeks, don't believe
him, says Milestones. He probably
got his information from German
propaganda, since our Teuton friends
seem bent on trying to brighten US out
OF this war. No losses were more ex-
cessive than those among the British
infantry officers during the first year of
the war, when they fought a losing
fight, without artillery support, and
insisted on exposing themselves in
conspicuous uniforms. The percentage
Of casualties among them for the first
year was 1873, according to the official
figures.
The percentage Of casualties among
our allies has been decreasing. The
proportion for the entire French army
was 5.41 per cent in 1914, 4 per cent
in 1915 and 2.T5 per cent for 1916. The
total for % months was a little over u
per cent.

A Genuine Patriot

The school teachers on the East side
in New York are finding some inter
esting material in the manner in which
alien parents are saving to aid in the
war. One little girl told her teacher
how "the folks at home" are going to
help. My father and mother and me-"
she said, 1--WE made it on a piece of
paper last night. My father has makes
SIS the week. and he pays for the rent
SIS the month, 81 for coal, So for milk
for the baby, 81 a week for eats. Then
he gets left ST the week. He gives my
mother 50 for clothes, he keeps 81 the
week and puts 81 the week for the
war savings. He does that so long as
the war should last"

1.-The 1ayette will, if necessary, serve
also for civilian relief here in America.
Patterns described in the leafiet
can be obtained at Red Cross chapters,
and at practically every retail dry
goods store with a pattern counter.
The outfit calls for:
1.-TWO daisy-cloth or outing flannel
dresses, one flannel or knitted or
crocheted jacket, three bleached mus
lin jackets, three thin white flannel
brassiereS, one flannel or daisy-clOth
hood, two pairs of bOOtees, two Swad-
ding cloths or wooden blankets, three
flannel binders, twelve diapers, three
underShirtS, one bonnet and bag filled
with sundrieS for the little newcomer
into a warning world. Wherever pos
sibIe the Red Cross urges that the
layette be completed before it is turned
over to the chapters for shipping.
Where this is not possible, single ar
ticles will be acceptable.
Members of the Junior Red Cross,
little girls in the grammar grade sew
ing classes, have offered to help with
the baby clothes: and many women in
rural districts will find these simple
contributions to the winning of the
great war and the comforting of French
motherhood, easier to make than cut
ting hospital garments for men or
struggling with the wool scarcity when
they have volunteered to knit"
The Hays free press. [volume] (Hays, Kan.) 1908-1924, 1918-01-12

There is no prospect now of q respite
from the necessity TO knit and If such
a respite were in sight there are many
women who would not take advantage
Of it. This knitting for the soldiers
turns out to be a fascinating occupa-
ton that Quiets the nerves and salts
fies the hearts desire to do something
worth while.
There is no end to the demand for
warm sox, for scarfs and sweaters and
helmets, and there is no limitation to
the willingness of women to make
them; so we are destined t0 go on
knitting. Even the end of the war will
hardly see the end of our devotion to
the good, Old-fashiOned art. By that
time we shall have become addicted to
it-and also to the necessity of being
useful.
The knitting bag is the outward and
visible sign of our patriotic industry
and every day brings out new ones.
The last arrivals are somewhat smaller
than the sweater bags that were so
numerous in the summer and fall fol-
lowed by knitting bags patterned after
them Satin and ribbon are used for
making many of these new bags, in
plain and printed weaves and in bro
caded and embroidered patterns. They
are designed so that they can be cas-
lily carried on the arm and to make
the knitting so accessible that every
where their wearers sit down for a
quarter of an hour, or even less time,
the knitting goes faithfully on. Three
ribbon bags are shown in the group
illustrated. The largest bag is made
of rose-cOlored ribbon in five strips,
erringbone-stitched together. The end
strips are trimmed in curve and the
edges are finished with a narrow plait-
ing Of fnch-wide satin ribbon matching
the bag. Small rings with cover Of
crocheted silk floss suspend the bag

RELIABLE PRESCRIPTION

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.

Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-

should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
1t IS sold by all druggists on its merit and
1t should help you. No other kidney medi-
cine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start

TO MEET DEMANDS FOR HELP
War Employment Service, Aided by
System of Bureaus, New Ma
tionai Arrangement Planned.

To meet the rapidly increasing war
demand for labor q new system of
labor exchanges, to be known as the
war emergency employment service, is
being organized by the industrial serv-
ice section of the council of national
defense.
L. c. Marshall, chief of the sec
ton, Announces that all state councils
Of defense had been asked to form la
Dor exchanges in cooperation with the
federal department of labor. Many
shipyards were said to be in need of
workers, and in the near future the
need is likely to be felt equally by mu-
milton, steel, lumber. mining, transport
tation and all the other essential in
duStrieS.

Trained nurses are urged by the Red
Cross to enroll for service in European
hospitals. Nurses who can leave this
country at any time, for foreign serv-
ice, are needed or will be, and it is very
necessary that they should enroll al

The woman's bureau of the Red
may be had by applying at any chap
ter, describing layettes for French or
Belgian mothers who may need them.
With regard to these simple QUILTS of
warm baby clothes the Red Gloss has
issued the following:
1.-The articles and garments in the
layette have been chosen upon the ad-
vice of the wOman's bureau representa-
tives who have returned from Il two
months investigation of allied needs in
France. The Red Cross is anxious
that these baby clothes be made by
women working at home instead of in
the chapter wOrkrOOmS.
'aThe garments are very simple.
Great emphasis is laid on the purchase
of extremely durable materials, since
owing to the coal shortage in France,
hot water is available in most villages
only twice a week, while the greater
part of the laundry work is done in icy
streams. The method of cleansing is by
pounding with stones. Warm baby
clothes will save many child who
otherwise might perish this year.

The Chase IS an Exercise

The chase as an exercise for the rul-
ing caste in Germany has survived into
our own time, states a writer. Every
Prussian officer had to spend part OF
his time hunting. not foxes merely
but deer and boar as well Royalty
still went in state to the boar-seeking
and stag hunt, with hundreds Of beat
ers and a tremendous retiaue- The
slaughter still mounted into the hun

Among the colors which dyers have
produced OF late are the various

They have also found an odd purple.
These shades will be seen largely in

they are attractive, for nearly every
woman can wear velvet hat in the
beetroot shade. If gray gown is
liked it need not be all gray. There
