FILL SOLDIERS SOCKS
An Old Fashioned Celebration Of
YuIetide for American
Soldiers in France.

A Christmas tree iD every ward of
every American hospital and in every
hospital recreation hut in France!
Every wounded or sick American
fighting man to receive two socks filled
TO the brim with fruits, nuts, candy
and smokes!
These are the most interesting fea-

Cross in France in cooperation with
The commanding officers of our fighting
forces in that country, Details of the
plan TO make Christmas as merry as
possible for the soldiers in these insti-
buttons have just been received at Red
Cross headquarters. Nurses and enlist
cd men on duty at these places will
also share in the distribution of Christ
mas cheer Because of the limited
amount of available shipping space
The Red Cross was compelled to abap-
don It's original plan to send special
Christmas parcels from here to soldier
patients in France. All the articles
distributed will be obtained over there.
This is to be an old fashioned cele-
bration in every se2se of the word.
Every soldier will hang his socks on
the tree. The socks will be tied with
red ribbon and in addition to the good
les mentioned above will contain a
handkerchief and card, on which
will be outlined the services the Amer
lean Red Cross is prepared to render
our soldiers. Each soldier will re-
ceive Sufficient number of Christmas
postcards-now being designed by art
lists in the Red Grass seryice-to en-
f)le him to write to members cs his
family and his friends back home.
The Christmas dinner, of course, will
be one of the features of the celebra-
ton. After dinner there will be
musical entertainment, motion pic
lures and general singing.

ors' Short Course held annually at
the Mackay School of Mines, Univer-
sity OF Neveda, Reno, Nevada, will
open January and continue until
February /, 1919. Judging from the
members Of the class the present year
bids fair to be fully as successful as
the last in spite OF the general dis
turbance existing in mining condi-
tons
The Prospectors' Short Course is
designed to aid the prospectors of Ne
vada, but is open to the residents OF
other states as well. Glasses will be
conducted along the lines which have
proved so successful in the past. and
will include about the same subjects
as last year. The subjects which were
taught then, together with the name
of the instructor and the time devoted

PREPARING ANIMALS FOR
SLAUGHTER

II is important that an animal in
tended for slaughter should be kept
off feed p to SO hours. Ii kept
on full feed the systsm is gorged and
the blood vessels loaded in such a
condition it is impossible to drain
the veins thoroughly when the animal
is bled, and reddish colored, unat-
tractive carcass will be the result.
Food in the stomach decomposes very
rapidly after slaughter, and where the
dressing is slow the gases generated
often favor the meat Water should
be given freely up to the time of
slaughter. as il keeps the tempera-
ture normal and helps to wash out
the system, resulting in nicely coloi-
ed carcass.
The care of animals previous to
slaughter has considerable effect on
the keeping Qualities of the meat. 1t
is highly important that they be not
excited in any way sufficiently to
raise the temperature of the body.
Excitement prevents proper drainage
OF blood vessels, and ii extreme will
cause souring of the meat very soon
after dressing. In no instance should
an animal be killed icmediately after
long drive or after rapid run
about the pasture. If heated by such
cause it is far better to allow it to
rest over night before killing than
to risk the meat spelling. The flesh
of an animal that has been overheated

Beauty Chats By Edna Kent Forbes
Using The Bath Brush.

= SHOULD say that first in import
ance as a beauty aid is e so cent
i bath brush. Or. II you want to
give It its other name, a flesh brush
Few people use a bath brush as
much as they should Yet it is really
an essential If you want a clear, fine
skin over the whole body. Its action
opens and clears the pores Of all Sc
cretions, it stimulates the blood. bring
ing it TO the surface OF the skin. it
makes the whole body glow with Wig
or and health. Your bath Is twice as
effective and twice as enjoyable.
OF course. the ideal health and
cleanliness is a bath every day. Where
there is running water and a tub or
q shower. this is easy to take. and re-
quires but a few moments. Un1ortu-
nately, many houses back in the coun-
try haven't as yet these modern con-
veniences-and the bath is not part of
a daily routine. And in this case, the
bath brush is an absolute necessity,
for the amount Of dirt and perspira-
ton on the skin is just so much
greater
Many women, too. women who fancy
themselves as dainty in their personal
habits as can be, never seem able to
wash the back Of the shoulders. OF
course, II Is hard to reach, and merely
soaping and rinsing the back with
wash cloth wouldn't clean II. But the
flesh brush has long, curved handle.
and the back can be scrubbed as Wig
orously as the rest OF the body
II you've ever looked at the decol-
lete backs Of half the women you
meet, you'll know what this means,
for nearly half the women have
hordes Of tiny blackheads on the back
Of their shoulders.
Questions and Answers.
Elizabeth-You are Just about the
right weight, and though still small.
you must remember that you haven't
attained your growth yet In three
or four years you'll have gained
many inches. OF course, exercise does
tend 10 increase the height. especially
the drill work in gymnasiums- can't
say how tall you will grow; often at
your age. a girl shoots up four inches
in a summer.
About the prettiest way a girl can
wear her hair, when Il Is hanging, is
in a cluster Of curls tied at the nape
Of the neck. OF course this isn't very
original, but it's lovely. You can wear
all colors Of gray to match your eyes,
and browns as well. besides blue OF
every shade, topaz yellow and gray
together (when you're older). bronze,
chartreuse, rose pink, and the deeper
tones OF green.
Yes, I'll be glad to write a chat on
hair dressing, very soon

heard a growing voice cry;

he kicked up nervous like a little
cloud Of snow between himself and
the bad dog.

So Uncle Wiggily handed over the
basket, and the dog hungrily took it
and reached his paw to take out an
egg to eat Uncle Wiggily. not stop

through the woods. and when he was
almost at his hollow stump bungalow
he heard the dog howl:
