. dispatch from Bridgeville. At present
the market is very low and most of the
growers are leaving the potatoes in the
field, hoping for higher prices, the pre-
sent price not even paying for the labor
Of getting them out. Because of the
scarcity of fuel none of the enormous
storehouses which usually take care of
the crop will be open this year. 1t is
impossible to let the potatoes stay in the
ground much longer because of cold
weather and frost, which will cause the
potatoes to rot. Some of the farmers
are trying the old-fashioned way of

MERCY MUNITIONS
NEEDED IN TRENCHES
Lieut.. Coningsby Dawson, Fight.
ing Author, Makes Stirring
Appeal for Y. w. C. A.

Lieut.. Coningsby Dawson, who wrote
Garry On" says Of the war work
which the Y. w. c. A. is doing: "You
at home cannot fight with your lives,
but you can fight with your mercy.
The Y. w. c. A. is offering you just
this chance. It garrisons the women's
support trenches, which lie behind the
mems. It asks you to supply them
with munitions of mercy that they
may be passed on to us. We need
such supplies badly. Give generously
that we may the sooner defeat the
Hun"
What Lieut.. Dawson says Of the 7.
w. G. A. he might have said Of all the
national organizations which are COM
ing together for the biggest financial
campaign that organizations have ever
headed. All the $170,5O0,00O to be
raised by the seven great national or
CARNATIONS the week of November IL
will be used to garrison and supply
the support trenches behind the lines.
They are the Y. NJ. G. A., the Y. w.
c. A., the National Catholic War Coun-
ell, Jewish Welfare Board, American
Library Association, War Camps Con-
munity Service and Salvation Army.
American girls in various uniforms
mingle strangely with picturesque
Brittany costumes in France. The
American Y. w. G. A. has a hostess
house in Brittany where the Signal
Corps women live and hut where
the nurses spend their free time. Both
these centers are fitted with many of
the comforts and cOnveniences 0

AT q tea given at the nurses hut

Mabel Warner, of Salina, Kansas, Y.
