came from coming to live with her
aunt instead Of going back to teach
the country school, as she had
planned. OF course 1t would have
been foolish to have turned down the
chance of becoming heiress to her
aunt's immense fortune, but she Won
dered If 1t had made her happy.
Kathleen jumped to her feet hastily.
1t was useless to sit there getting SEN
timental. She looked at her engage
ment pad YEARLY. "a Red Cross tea
at Mrs. De Vain's" for that afternoon.
Another bore, she reflected, as she
rang for her maid to assist her to
dress.
Mrs. De Vain's tea dragged through
the afternoon. It was hot on the lawn,
and Kathleen had just about decided
to feign Illness as an excuse for leav-
ing, when the feature of the after
moons entertainment was announced
AN address from Miss Marshley. a
returned nurse from the front. Miss
Marshley had a gripping personality
and great story to tell Kathleen
did not miss a word of 1t.
'You have no idea what is going on
over there" Miss Marshley said as
she neared the end of her address.
SLOW lucky we are to be safe here
at home enjoying entertainments like
this one while the boys are bleeding
on the fields of Flanders! Every one
of us should do something to bring the
war to an end-things worth while.
We can, and wAmust Pleasure must
be forgotten and the stern duties
of life taken on. Every one must help
where she is best suited to help. It
would be ridiculous to suggest to you
ladies to 90 out on farms where help
is needed most but there is some 9th
er place where you are needed. You
have judgment-ffnd that place !''
Kathleen sat quite still after the
speaker had finished, her mind working
rapidly What a useless being she was,
she thought. What little value she was
to the world when every one was
needed to be valuable! The few dol
lars she had given to patriotic pur-
poses had been given to her by her
aunt and were not sacrifice at all.
She would have to do something-o

Half vexed, for some of the girls
were looking on curiously, Anne hand

''Thank you" he said, "and now l

she stamnered.

Ever since Anne Mccall with her
hard-earned diploma-paid for by ia
Bile waiting, mending, tutoring-had
come to Elton, she had loved the blue
rim of the mountains, the shining
leaved rhododendrons, and the wide
bowlder-strewn river. Nor had she
grown tired of her work among the
girls, but sometimes she had felt some
thing was lacking in her life.

On Saturday there came in the mail
for her a box holding six red, half
blown dollhouse roses.
Dear Lady of the Song" the card
beneath them read, please wear these

Anne divided the roses with her
roommate, but slipped the card out of
sight.
Two weeks after the Rev. Nathan
Ledyard was installed as pastor of the
church, and with his wife and baby
moved into the parsonage. A week
later Anne, at the station, saw the
young pastor greeting a broad-shoul-
dered man. with thick, graying hair.
Unseen herself, she had time closely
to observe Palmer before they went
away. She wondered she had not OBJ
served before how well set up he was,
and how his fine black eyes lost their
usefulness when he talked.
The next Saturday evening Anne,
invited to take tea with the Ledyards,
found Palmer in their little parlor. In
the course of the evening she learned
that his conversation was a delight and
his laugh infectiously boyish.
I'D love to stay for tomorrow" he
told her as he escorted her home, "but

Droplet Infection Explained in pictures.

1.-The Bureau of Public Health,
Treasury Department, has just issued
a striking poster drawn by Bergman,
the well-known Washington cartoonist.
The poster exemplifes the modern
method of health education. A few
years ago, under similar circumstances,
the health authorities would have is
sued an official dry but scientifically
accurate bulletin teaching the role of
droplet infection in the spread of re-
spiratory diseases. The only ones who
would have understood the, bulletin
would have been those who already
knew an about the subject The man
in the street, the plain citizen and the
many millions who toll for their living
would have had no time and no desire
to wade through the technical phrase
ology."

hundred thousand lives annually in

would adopt the system Of fresh air

"Still another factor in the produc-
ton of colds, pneumonia and other re-
spiratory diseases is carelessness or fg.
norance Of the people regarding suit

the weather suddenly changes, sitting
in warm rooms too heavily dressed or,
what is even more common, especially
among women, dressing so lightly that
windows are kept closed in order 10 be

furious practice.

Washington, d. C.-Wifh the subsid-
ence of the epidemic of influenza the
attention of health officers is directed
to pneumonia, bronchitis and other
diseases of the respiratory system
which regularly cause a large number
of deaths, especially during the winter
season. According to Rupert Blue,
Surgeon General of the United States
Public Health Service, these diseases
will be especially prevalent this win
ter unless the people are particularly
careful to obey health Instructions
1.-THE present epidemic, said Sur
geon General Blue, "has taught by bit
ter experience how readily a condition
beginning apparently as a slight cold
may go on to pneumonia and death.
Although the worst of the epidemic is
over, there will continue to be large
number of scattered cases, many of
them mild and unrecognized which
will be danger spots to be guarded
against" The Surgeon General likened
the present situation to that after a
great fire, saying, s"No fire chief who
understands his business stops playing
the hose on the eharred debris as soon
as the flames and visible fire have dis
appeared. On the contrary, he con-
tinues the water for hours and even
days, for he. knows that there is dan-
ger of the fire reminding from smol-
dering embers."
'Then you fear another outbreak OF
influenza?" he was asked. "Not neces.
sarily another large epidemic" said
the Surgeon General, "but unless the
people learn to realize the seriousness
of the danger they will be compelled to
pay heavy death toll from pneumo-
mia and other respiratory diseases.

Merchants Selling Stamps

Within the past few days num-
Der of agencies have been establish
ed in Bamberg for the sale of thrift
stamps. These stamps may now be
found on sale at number of stores
in the city, and neat signs have been
posted telling the customers to Get
Your Change in Thrift Stamps - The
sale of stamps at Bamberg has not
made satisfactory progress at all, and
it is to be hoped that with the estaD-
lishment of the several agencies here
the sales will show marked improve
ment.
Denmark is doing fine in this mat
ter. and bids fair to walk away
with Bamberg unless Improvement
is shown here. The people at Den
mark have taken to the buying Of
stamps in a most patriotic and Ell
thusiastic manner Several other
points in the county need waking up
in this matter, also.
