RED CROSS NOTES

Thirty workers met at the Red
Cross worlroom last Thursday. Be
cause of the number it was necessary
to seperate the gauze workers from
the garment workers.
The gauze workers will meet every
Monday afternoon at 80. Gauze
workers are required to wear cover
all aprons and some sort of covering
for the hair. This is necessary in or
der to keep the gauze work in a per-
fectly antiseptic condition and it is
also against the Red Cross rules to
allow this material or the finished
product to be handled by other work
ers or by children.
Sixteen gauze workers met last
Monday afternoon and turned ont
270 gauze wipes.
It is planned by the Trego County
Chapter to give a progressive din
ner" for the purpose of raising funds.
The date selected is February II, the
anniversary of Lincoln's birth. Both
the time and the object should arouse
much patriotic interest. Further an
nouncement will be made next week.
The following is condensed state
ment of the financial transactions of
the chapter for the month of No
vember.

January 7th, 1918.
Dear Folks:
Will write you line or two today.
I am well and am having a fair time
so far but of course there is slight
change in everything. 1t is pretty cold
here but it will be getting warm be-
fore very long as spring opens up in
about a month. It is raining just a
trifie here today.
b Sure had some trip on the way over
and we nearly froze time or two
but came through all together. Sure
will have lots to tell you when come
home and believe me I won't forget
any of my experiences either. We are
only a little ways from a town but
you can't buy anything when you are
there without paying about three
times as much as you should They
sure rob the soldiers over here. All
this Y. NJ. C. A. stuff is no good and
they even sell the stuff they are sup
posed to give to the soldiers. You can
not buy any candy or hardly anything
to eat, tobacco is very scarce and
candy and tobacco you want and a
good pair of gloves or anything as
I sure would be glad to have them. If
you do send anything you want to put
it in solid box and don't put any
thing in that is perishable. You can
send me some good heavy wool socks
also. am regular but when I got
over here there was no chance to
spend your money as there is moth
ing to buy only wine and brandy.
Gee, but I sure missed the Christ
mas and New Years dinner but !
think am to be home by next Christ
mas. We were on the boat both Xmas
and New Years and didn't get much
to eat.
How is everyone Tell all the folks
hello and tell them to write. I can
not write one letter a week but write
three in one and you can send the
other two to the girls. Write to Ger

However much we many want to
lick the Kaiser and his war-making
bunch, it appears childish to want to
Danish the study of the German Ian
guage from our public schools and
colleges. If there ever was a time
when the study of German by the
young people of America was justi-
fed, that time is right now and never
more So
The trouble has been that the best
or most accomplished teachers of
German in this country have been
teachers of Germany rather than
teachers of German. They have been
spreaders of German propaganda,
rather than teachers of languages,
taught by American teachers whose
loyalty and patriotism is undoubted.
In fact, there is neither room nor
any need of more than one language
in our primary or common schools and
that one language should be good
old United States-plain English.
And, if necessary in order to make
assurance double sure, this writer
would Danish all language from our
high schools except English. For
thirty years he has thought that no
private school, no parochial school or
UNCONVENTIONAL school should be per-
mitted to take the place of the public
schools in the education of young
Americans For their education they
should feel under obligation and owe
fealty to the state-not to the pater-
nal purse or the paternal church-and
our experience and observation during
recent months only serves to make
him stronger in his belief Young
Americans should be patriots, not
partisams.

Scores of people have

treatment after having had
the Influenza. II absolutely
cleans up the system, elimi-
mating every trace Of the dis
ease. Whether you know II
or not. it il a dangerous

Vapor treatment has proven
to be a specific in the treat
ment Of this disease, and the
elimination of the after-ef-
fects. We do not take cases
for treatment at the office
that have influenza. but we
furnish small machines for
the home. Only those cases
that are convalescing are re-
ceived at the office for treat
ment. Bronchitis, Asthma,

magic to Oxygen Vapor
treatments. Treatment Par

hurting the patient a bit This is a matter of big
importance TO you for possibly you are among the
many who have put off having necessary dental
work done on account of being afraid Of being
hurt. If you are, then we tell you that 'you need
delay no longer" on this account
4TH-LOWEsT PRICES
Quantity regulates price. This is a Fundamental
axiom Of business that cannot be denied There
fore, the fact that We do a very large volume of
business permits us to take smaller profit on the
individual patient than an office which does only
one-third to one-laf of the volume that we do can
possibly afford 10 take. So when. you compare
our prices with others you will find that ours are
the lowest especially considering the fact that we
turn out nothing but the very highest grade of
work.
5TH-BEST OF MATERIALS
The best is the only kind of material that we
can afford TO use. We found this out long ago.
6TH-OUR GUARANTEE
is binding agreement on our part that if for any
reason whatever work done at this office does not
give you entire satisfaction, come back to us and
we will make it right. This guarantee is signed
both by the operator who did the work and BY
L. X. Clark ID. d. S., owner and manager of this
office, who is thoroughly responsible.
7TH-SANITATION
This is hobby with US In fitting up our Of
fices we put in all the best appliances for sterizng
instruments. All operators and attendants are
CARRIED in spotless white at all times.
FREE EXAMINATION
We invite you to call at our office and let one Of
our experts give your teeth thorough examna
tion He will tell you just what is needed TO put
your teeth into perfect condition and also just what
the cost will be. This examination and estimate
won't cost you a cent nor will il put you under
any obligation TO have work done unless you
want it,
But for your own sake you ought not to neglect
this important matter a moment longer than you
can possibly help.
Don't you think it is about time that you gave
yourself the advantage of good set of teeth

And stomach trouble is one Of the commonest
ailments that come from bad teeth. You can
easily see that the poisons from bad teeth are trans
mitted directly into the stomach as the food comes
in contact with our teeth in the process of masca
tion II must be evident TO you that these poisons
are going TO exercise bad effect on the stomach
that they are going to interfere and interfere
seriously with the digestive apparatus. And there
is no one thing that can bring as much real misery
TO person as TO have his digestive organs out of
order. Your physician will tell you the same thing
il you will talk the matter over with him.
Altogether for person who has bad teeth, to
neglect them and let this condition continue is
about the most foolish thing that he can do
Now, just word as to what we have 10 offer
you in the way of dental service at this office. In
the first place, we have one OF the largest and best
equipped dental offices in the United States. We
make this statement unreServedly and without fear
of successful contradiction
We occupy the entire floor on which our offices
are located. When il comes TO equipment, we
have practically everything that modern science has
perfected for the better performance Of painless
dentistry. We have spared no expense in fitting up
our offices. Our only idea has been to give the
people of Seattle the very best
Second-Every operator on our staff is gradu-
ate registered dentist. Every one Of them has his
certificate from the State Dental Board hanging
right on the wall in front Of his dental chair in
plain sight of all. This proves TO you beyond the
shadow Of doubt that he knows his business,
and knows ii thoroughly. II shows you that he
spent years of hard study under competent insruc-
tors and has then passed thorough and searching
examination before the state dental board as to
his knowledge and ability to practice dentistry,
and do ii right,
When you see this certificate you may rest as
sured that the holder of ii is man of experience
and that your work will be done the way it ought
TO be done to give you lasting and permanent sat-
isfaction.
