Many have seen the British War
Cross, the Cross of the Legion
of Homer and the Croix de
Guerre on his uniform, but none
at Funston have ever succeeded
in hearing the tale of how he
won them, medal wearers being
notably reticent. =
This is generally known and
respected, and, so the captain is
little bothered with questions
concerning them. The tale is
now told around Funston, how
ever, which indicates that one
young lieutenant's curiosity got
the better of his judgment, and
he questioned the gallant
Frenchman pointblank.
"You wish to know how I re-
ceiv re medals? Well, l will tell
you," Captain Monroe is said to
have replied. and the younger
listened, all ears, for a thrilling
tale.

ct Camp Funston, and Captain
Paul Wilmington, 89th Division
athletic director, is making plans
for a busy baseball season here.
There will be company and regi-
mental teams by the score, and
the best material will compose
a division team which vii: meet
the best college teams in the
country. 1t is hoped that games
can be arranged with some of
the big league aggregations.
There are many good profess
slonal and amateur baseball
players among the enlisted men
and officers Of the division and
Captain Wilmington is confident
that a team can be organized
that will give any league aggre-
cation a GOD argument.
1t has been announced that

Chicago Cubs, has been accept

CAMP FUNSTON NEWS.

(Union Pacific News Bureau }
CAMP FUNSTON, March 20.
The breath of sweet lilacs no
longer blends with the odor of
onions and hash at Camp Fun
ston, for the secret of the sweet
"nips" has been discovered and
the lilac hair tonic cocktail is no
more.
Murder will out the old
saying goes, and so will a SUBJ
stitute for John Barleycolm be
discovered even in dry and
windy Kansas if the sleuth is
persistent enough. Hence the
discovery that a certain brand
of hair tonic the color of spring
lilacs and bearing the sweet
scent thereof, contained about
80 per cent alcohol.
Just who discovered that the
partaking of the highly scented
liquid produced a sensation akin
to divers and sundry fluids,
probably never will be known,
but whoever he was, he didn't
keep it strictly a secret.
Many soldiers at Camp Fun
ston soon began showing great
concern for their hair. Bald
headed rockies, as we'll as long
haired fellows went to the drug
stores of the towns around the
camp seeking hair tonic of the
lilac variety. Just any old kind
of hair tonic wouldn't do. They
wanted the lilac flavor.
And in a short time the drug
gists and BARRIERS began order
ing this certain brand of hair
tonic by the case instead of a
dozen bottles. Then they doub-
led and finally tripled their or
ders.
And yet bald headed soldiers
stayed bald and praised the
lilac hair tonic. Whether it was
a good haiy tonic they probably
never will know, but they can
vouch it's a good drink in a
dry country. =
Then just as the lilac cocktail
parties were becoming regular
affairs and certain secluded cor
hers of certain barracks smelled
like the perfume department of
a ten cent store, secret service
mem learned the secret of the
popularity of "Pingpong's Lilac
Hair Tonic"
So now the druggists and bar
bers can't sell it any more and
it begins to appear as if those
of the inward craving may have
to go back to soda pop or lemon
extract.
A short time ago, it was re-
ported, several soldiers from
Fort Riley got hold of a brand
of hair tonic that made four
seriously ill and resulted in the
death of one.
Because of the numerous
complaints at Funston and other
camps that ground glass has
been found in food, particular
care has been ordered in looking
out for the dangerous grit.
When it is suspected that any
foreign substance found in food
is glass, samples of it are to be

Baldwin Red Cross
 Doing Much Work
Thousands of Articles for Soldiers and Refugees Have Been Shipped
 Since June 21

Bay Minette. July l6.-(Special)-Th Baldwin County Red Cross association, through it's local headquarters, has shipped since June q the following sup plies for the army: 2o.iA gauze dress- ings, 1oe7 muslin bandages, So bed jack cts, 20 bed shirts, 9 pairs pajamas, .6l sweaters, f helmets, 25 pairs socks, U pairs wristlets, St comfort pillows, hot water bag covers, 9 property bags, pairs bed socks: refugee garments for the Belgians. 24 dresses 10 pairs draw- CTS, 9 petticoats. Two hundred pairs of socks and a number of sweaters and other shipment shortly. This amount of material was called in owing to new regulations in shipments and was made during a period when no new supplies were issued, or the amount would have been much moore than the figures given above. The Red Cross work in this coun- ty is in excellent shape and the women are to be highly congratulated because of their most excellent response. 1t has been the custom to make weekly ship ments of supplies and the grand total that has been shipped is very large.
 special school tax election which allows a special levy of 10 cents on each S100 for the next 10 years was recently carried in Baldwin county, and the official count shows that a total of only 3S1 votes were cast and of this num- Der 335 were in favor of the additiona, taxation, only 46 votes being cast against the levy. The special tax was voted a little over 10 years ago and the period expired on July i, making a new election for the next 10 years necessary.
 The local Knights of Pythis lodge elected the following officers in their an
 nual election: w. c. Beebe, chancellor commander; $. c. Jenkins. vice chancel- Tor; w. II. Hawkins. prelate: s. l.. Leak, master of arms; ]. M. Franklin. keeper of records and seal; W. D.

schools, clubs, church organizations and department stores.
 The plans of the Red Cross shop ars to have persons donate various things to this shop which will be sold, the help in the shop and tearoom beiEs strictly volunteer, as having a captain for each day in the week and let her have her special force for that day just as the canteen workers do. The chairmen or managers of departments will be re- sponsible for scoring items for sale. whether through their individual ef- forts, through treasure drives or through the publicity department
 The tearoom is very important de- partment-around it gather social ac- tivities: It should become common meeting place for both recreation and work and each week day should have it's special function or form of enter tainment, giving one to the schools, one to the church organizations, one to so- cial and others for general purposes.
 The melting pot or "a place of sac rifice," should be another interesting feature of the Red Cross shop. A re- ceptacle to be used to receive odds and ends of broken jewelry, gold or silver, or any item valued by the owner who may be desirous of giving her mite to the cause.
 A department which has been added to several Red Cross shops is salvage, This is a reclamation of all waste prod ucts such as tin foil, paper, old tires. typewriter supplies. glassware and various other articles.
 In organizing Red Cross shop, the chairman of the local chapter of the American Red Cross should appoint a chairman to act as general manager of the shop, and it is important that d chairman be selected who will b. able to give her entire time to this branch of the work. Of course there would be a secretary and treasurer and a com mittte for each department as we'll as l captains and several managers. The process of starting a shop is most sim i pie, but a beginning once made and you will find the shop exhibiting a steady growth.

 The delegation of big business men and Red Cross workers from Birmingham put pep into the occasion and helped the people of Sumter connty to put over another big bull day.
 Col Robert Jemison, P c. Shook, Err skine Ramsay and R. A.

Take, for instance, the signed state ment of MT. R. H. Patterson, of No 3101 Tenth avenue, popular employe of the A. G. $. R. R. Co.'S car shops, which states:
 Y II have suffered from stomach trouble in the form of indigestion and dyspepsia for 15 years and all the food that I ate would sour in my stomach; I was bloated with gas and in constant pain. I could not touch meat or vegetables and even sweet milk would make me sick; black spots would come up in front of my eyes and I felt so weak that could hardly get around; I had painters cramps or collie and spent $20 in two months trying to get something to relieve me So many of my friends told me about Plant Juice that I decided to try it. Three bottles have put me in per feet health; I have no more aches O. pains, sleep fine and have good appe- tite for all of my meals. Plant Juice is the only medicine that reached my case and I am glad to recommend it to others"
