THE RED CROSS
By EDGAR A. GUEST.

Y AM too old to share the fight;
 Too many years have come and gone K Since first saw the morning light
 My youth has been and travelled on, am too old to join the line,
 Far-fung today that truth shall live; may not die for what is fine
 But am not too old to give. am not yet so old that
 Have drifted from the world apart still can hear the helpless cry,
 And mercy still can reach my heart. still can share from day to day
 The burden that our youth must bear, And thank God that can say
 The Red Cross Is my symbol there. am too old to bear a lance
 Across the shel-torn Flanders field may not go where troops advance
 And death's grim terrors are revealed; But ! can hear the helpless call,
 And can serve them while | live; And thank God that through 1t all
 shall not be too old to give

SYSTEM IN WHEAT SAVING.

Two much sameness in menus con.

plan of conservation in order to avoid
the possibility Of say, oatmeal for the
breakfast cereal, oatmeal something
or other for lunch, and oatmeal bread
for dinner-not at FL desirable diet
Elimination Of wheat from the
breakfast menu reduces the choice OF
cereals to three-oatmeal rolled oats
and corn meal. These used alternate
ly, with simple hot dish, bread and
butter or jam, constitute a substantial
breakfast.
Lunch always requires bread Of

financial interests at the last moment
filed the big lump sum subscriptions
expected of them, and whether the
number of smaller subscriptions by

Every district and community in the
third federal reserve bank area has
gone over the top in the campaign for
the fourth Liberty Loan, it was an
nOunced at the headquarters of the
loan in this city. Oversubscriptions
cannot be tabulated for several days
because of the tremendous amount of

For the next five days banks in
every city and town in the United
States will be busy adding up sub

then must be made to federal reserve
banks. which are expected to take at
least five days more to report to the
treasury.
Indications are that the number of
individual subscribers will far exceed
20,000,000, and break all records for
distribution of war bonds for either

The Wonderful Call
Whe, Baby Comes
Like the Blast of Heavenly Trumpet
When Call of Motherhood Is Felt.

OF all the most vital times In a woman's
life the coming Of baby is fraught with the
greatest meaning. Care should be exercised
to insure that the crisis is passed in safety.
Apprehension is avoided by the timely
use of Mothers Friend, D. preparation Of
penetrating oils and medicinal ingredients,
which renders the muscles, cords, tendons
and lgaments pliable, and thus tension is
avoided. The usual nervousness, nausea,
bearing-down and stretching pains are coun-
teracted and the period is one Of calm re-
pose.
The broad, fat abdominal muscles relax
with ease, and when baby comes the time
at the crisis is less and pain and danger is
avoided.
Thousands Of women for half a century
have used this penetrating external applica-
ton, prepared especially for expectant moth
ers and every woman awaiting the crisis
should give nature a helping hand.
