No Need For Attorneys.

The secretary of the treasury has announced that neither the soldiers, sailors, nor their depend ents or any benehciaries under the soldier and sailor insurance law need employ attorneys or claim agents to collect the insurance: that the employment of such in termediaries is unnecessary and inadvisable and needless expense.
 The procedure for the presenta- tion and collection of insurance claims is very simple and the prop CT blanks can be secured from the Bureau of War Risk Insurance in Washington. The name of the person in the service who was killed or injured and the relation ship which he bore to the person making the claim should be given. If further information or assistance

so have on hand now more than 1000 articles ready for shipment and will make regular shipments weekly.
 Next week we will publish f. nancial statement of the condition of the chapter and of each branch in Union county and show where the money that has been spent has gone.
 We have enough money on hand to run our work rooms about three months perhaps and as the good weather opens up the work done will increase in volume.
 This showing has been accom- plished in the face of great difficult ties for the classes had to be trained and material purchased and organization perfected before we could get on a working basis.
 The credit for this showing is due to the noble and unselfsh sac rifice of our good ladies who have given their time and work to this cause from none but the most pa triotic motives.
 The men have given the money to buy the raw materials but the actual work of preparation. with out which the money would have been useless, has been done by loving hands that bent themselves to unaccustomed tasks at great sacrifices of personal convenience and comfort.

 Circulars have been sent out by claim agents and attorneys offer ng to assist persons entitled to the benefits of this insurance in collect ing their claims. The pension sharks, . who once thrived and fat tened under our pension laws, are still a rank memory in this country.
 It was hoped that when they were legislated out of existence we would never see their like again and the action of Secretary Mc- Adoo in giving prompt warning against these would-be profteers under the insurance law will be commended by all.

Conserving Poultry Products.

At this time, when food products are to play such an important part in the winning of the war, it is the patriotic duty of everyone to be- come a producer of such products. Poultry and egg products may not be used in the trenches very large ly, but they will take the place of other products in the diet of those of us who are behind the trenches, thereby allowing bacon and such other products to go to the fighting men.
 Increased poultry and egg pro duction can be brought about more quickly than the production of oth- CT animal products. The city man can do his bit as we'll as his farmer cousin. The recent ruling of the food administration, prohibiting the sale for slaughter of hens and pull lets during the mating season, will do much to increase our stock oi eggs and poultry.

fOrIdx Assessor.

In our announcement column this week appears that of w. M. (Billie) Ramsey for the nomina- tion of Tax Assessor of Union county at the Democratic primary in May.
 Mir. Ramsey, who is native of this county, made the race for this office four years ago and was sec ond man in the race, having nearly POO more votes than any of the others.
 He was for number of years in the slave and timber business which require a thorough knowl- edge of land numbers. lines and values and this knowledge will be very helpful in helping the tax pay CTS assess their lands should he be the choice of the voters. He is also a good penman, which will as- sure neat and accurate set of books.
 For the past few years Billie has been farming, but expects to make thorough canvass of the county and meet every voter personally, unless the shortage of labor pre- vents, as he feels that it is his pa triotic duty to produce more this year than last.
 He is qualified in every way to fill the office to which he aspires and will appreciate your support and by faithful service prove his gratitude if elected

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness. and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness Is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is infiamed you have rumbiing sound or imperfect hearing. and when il Is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inhammat tion can be reduced and this tube restored to it's normal condition. hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh. which Is an unframed condition of the mucous sur faces. Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the sys- tenn.

LOCAL RED CROSS WORK.
Facts and Figures Showing What Our Red
 Cross is Dulng.

Those who contributed so fiber ally to the American Red Cross hundred million dollar war fund last June as well as those who joined the Red Cross in the Christmas membership campaign are entitled to know something of how their money has been handled.
 Of the hundred million dollars raised last year, 25 per cent was returned to the local chapters for local work, such as purchasing raw material to be made into surgical dressings by our women workers.
 The remainder was entrusted to war council of the National Red Cross to be administered in reliev- ing the distress incident to the war among our allies in Europe, building and equipping hospitals in the war zone and taking care of wounded and sick soldiers and civi- lians who had suffered the ravages of war on the front, as we'll as building hospitals in our canton ments and equipping hospital units.
 So well has the council handled this fund that for every dollar it re- ceived for relief work it has spent $l.O2. What little expense was incidental to proper administration of this fund was taken care of from outside sources and the council was enabled to spend not only the principal but the interest paid by depository banks for actual relief work.
 No other corporation and no oth CT organization in history ever ad- ministered Seventy-five Million Dollars without any deduction for expenses or salaries of employees, or so handled a fund of such mag nitude that not only the principal but accrued interest went direct and without any deduction, for act ual relief work. This ought to be a sufficient answer to those spreaders of German propaganda in this country who have charged that large part of the money con- tributed was being spent for sala- ries and expenses.
 Our local chapter has five branches in which the ladies are at work almost every day Of the week making hospital supplies, such as bed shirts, robes. sheets, pillow cases, etc, or kn tting sweaters, helmets, socks, wristlets and mak- ing surgical dressings, such as bandages, fracture pillows, laparo- tony pads and congresses, accord ing to the needs of the hospitals, as follows:

 h justice to the branches it should be explained that they have only been really organized for work about two months and then were delayed because of our inability to secure instructors for their classes as soon as they were needed.
 Surgical dressings can only be made under supervision or after receiving q course of instruction from a graduate instructor who has taken full course in the work.
 From the above it will be seen that 5.49Z articles have been made up by cur ladies and shipped to di- vision headquarters and the value

ALCOHOL IN ENGLAND.

Americans learn with apprecia-
lion that the consumption OF intoN-
icating liquors in Great Britain has
been reduced TO one-third OF what
it was before the war, and that no
spirits whatever are now being man
ufactured. This, it must be admit
ted, is much better than the United
States has done so far.
We are not blind to the fact,
however, that the need OF restrict
ing the liquor industry is much
more urgent in Great Britain than
it has yet become in this country.
Our own food problem has been
primarily a problem OF getting our
food to Europe. For ourselves, we
have got along pretty well. Britain
has for some time been on rations,
facing the peril OF a more serious
scarcity.
