Lime water does not look unlike the
ordinary fluid which comes from the
faucet. It is mildly bitter in its
taste and it's properties are antiacid
and astringent. It is because of this
antiacid or alkaline property that it
is given in milk or plain water when
there is a tendency to sour stomach,
nausea or vomiting. The sour or acid
condition is corrected and a slightly
tonic and soothing effect exerted.
Unless one has an opportunity to get
pure. clean lime, it is a better to buy
line water than to try to make 1t,
as It is very inexpensive. If, however,

LETTERS FROM HOME
RAISE ARMY MORALE
Pershins Appeals to Friends And
Relatives to Write to Boys i'm The
Trenches.

With the American Army in
France, Feb. 1S.-General Pershing
himself wants every father, mother
and other relative or close friend of
boy now in the trenches, or of a
boy who is likely to be there soon, to
write him letters and to send him
newspapers. The commander wants
it shown that the boys are held in
remembrance at home, for the home
touch makes a good soldier.
"One of the most effective ways
whereby our army thousands of
miles away in a foreign land can
keep in sympathy with the great
home sentiment of America is thru
individual letters received by officers
and men from relatives and intimate
friends" said General Pershing. In
just the same way letters from our
fighting men here should fire the ma
tion with enthusiasm to win and a
determination to endure many bur
dens which are trivial compared to
the sacrifices the soldiers are MAX
ing"
Thus from the commander-in-
chief comes the assurance that there
is no foundation for the apparent be-
lief of some postal clerks that they
should discourage folks at home
from writing letters in order to save
shipping space. Shipping is precious
but the morale and happiness of the
American soldier are still more
precious, especially since he has be-
come fighting man. Surely nothing
can go so far to make a soldier for

Service-Flag Dedication
AT Grace Baraca Class

Plans have been completed for
dedicating a Service Flag at the
Baraca Glass exercises next Sunday
morning. The flag will contain a
star for each member of the class
and church who has entered the
military or naval service of our coun
try, and the name of each of such
persons will also be entered on the
Honor Roll of the class and church.
The interior of the Sunday School
room is being renovated, and ar
rangements will be made to accom-
modate a crowd, so there is no rea-
son why anyone should remain away
through fear of not being shle to
get comfortable seat, and it is hop
ed that not only the members and
friends of the class will attend, but
that the public generally will avail
itself of this opportunity of spending
a most profitable and pleasant hour.
Hon. Thomas w. Simmons, Secre-
tary of State, will make the princi-
pal address, and upon this theme Mr..
Simmons should be at his best.
Misses Elsie Robbins, Margaret Skin
ner and Frances Insley will sing a
trio, Master Henry Taitt will sing
solo, the class orchestra will furnish
special music, and a pleasant enter
tainment is assured all who attend.
Everybody welcome.

the Associated Charities. You will
enjoy the entertainment. 1t is worth

CONVALESCENT HOME
CALLED RED CROSS HOUSE
Junior Red Cross Members to FIIrn-
ish House For Conyalescent Sol
djers

The American Red Cross is plan
ming to build at once in connection
with the base hospital attached tc
home to be called the Red Gross
House In order that this house
may effectively serve it's purpose
the restoration of convalescent sol
diers to full vigor of body and
mind-it is desirable that it be fur
nished in an attractive manner.
Junior Red Cross Members are
! going to be asked to undertake this
pleasant and patriotic task. They
are going to be invited not only tC
make the furniture, but also in some
measure to design it. Through Char
ter School Committees, school boys
will be asked to submit designs fol-
certain typical pieces of furniture to
be used in one of the Red Cross
Houses; from these designs the best
will be selected by local committee
appointed for that purpose, and for
warded to American Red Cross Ma
tional Headquarters through the
Division Manager.
All designs accented will be ap-
propriately acknowledged in the Red
Cross Bulletin or Red Cross Maya
zine, and prizes will be awarded to
the successful competitor.
This would appear to be an excel
lent opportunity for our school boys
to help our soldier boys; to exercise
their engenuity, ,and at the same time
their patriotism, to serve and to
learn.
