were not for the fact that he would
lose out while his comrades were
walloping the Heinies" the average
doughboy would consider it a great
privilege to get wounded and go thru
the series Of medical treatment now
ready to save the lives OF the boys
over there. The medical men have left
nothing half done, and have quietly
organized and built until Uncle Sam g
hospitals are considered by many the
best along the front.
Follow the course of one Private
Jones, just to see what a big job the
medical men have solved. Private
Jones might be from anywhere in the
states, and his name might be anything
but Jones-it would be contrary to

LADYSMITH LAD IN
MAGAZINE PICTURE

The September issue of the Great
Lakes Recruit, splendid pictorial
naval magazine published at Great
Lakes ILL.,, by the athletic association,
contains a fine write-up of new
''hostess house" recently completed at
that station by the Y. w. G. A.
Hostess houses" are built at army and
navy camps TO provide suitable place
where the men in camp can receive
visits from women relatives and
friends. In every camp where they
have been built they have proven a
great success and are very popular
with the boys and those who go to the
camps to visit them.
Among the illustrations used with
the article mentioned is one showing a
corner of the interior where couple
of attractive looking young ladies are
visiting with one of the navy boys.
That boy, naturally enough, is Lyle
McCorison, of Ladysmith, as plain as
day, and the best picture of him you
ever saw.

TWO. TIPS ON SAVINGS
CUT COAL BILL in HALF

BY using just one or two suggestions,
advocated by the United States Fuel
Administration for saving coal one
man has proved that not only COAL but
dollars can be saved. A consumer in
PHILADELPHIA has written to the fuel
administration telling of his eXper-
ience His house was surrounded on
the northern and western exposures by
open fields. BY covering his heater
pipes with asbestos and having all OF
the doors and windows weather
stripped. he was able to keep his ten
room house at a sensible temperature
on a total consumption of coal for the
winter of q little more than four tons.
His neighbor, having a house OF the
same size, declined to use the same
methods, and his aggregate consump-
tiOn of coal for the winter was four
teen tons Will not this be an added
incentive to all househOlders to cover
their pipes and weather-strip all doors
and windows?
