The object of my affection was a
girl of my own age who lived at the
other end of our block. She had fiery
red hair and the sides of her nose were
dotted with freckles, but she was beau
tiful to me and she was mighty popu-
lar with the boys. Nowadays she
would be called a good sport but a
wild firt. But she was always cheer
full and she was the only girl who had
not made fun of my buck tooth and So
I loved her to distraction.
So also did others, ~
When / saw her after the great day
l found that practically every boy In
the neighborhood had sent her a valen--
tine breathing undying affection and
that while mine was as beautiful as
any, she seemed to cherish SOM of the

Conventional enough, but there are
infinite possibilities of speculation in

APPROPRIATIONS
FOR WAR RELIEF
Reach BIG sum
ST., 3,435.35 Set Aside by Red
Cross for Work at Home
and Abroad.

The War Council of the American
Red Cross has just made public a re-
port showing appropriations totaling
$77 ,843,435.35, which were made from
the Red Cross War Fund up to jan
uary 8. For foreign relief, the report
states, $44,657, 1859 was set aside, ST.
612, 532.60 has been appropriated for
United States relief and $24, 1923, ISL
expended for supplies, either for for
eign shipment or for distribution or
resale to Red Cross Chapters in this
country.
The latter item, the statement sets
forth, includes 81, 063, 649.12 which is
included also in the 30,519,259.60, ap-
propriated for work in France, as well
as $11,2SS,417 for material for resale
to chapters. According to the report,
it may thus be considered as a working
fund and as a liquid asset rather than
an expenditure.
The total appropriations for admins
tration at national headquarters and
at division headquarters, of which
there are IA, amounted to $1,2S9,292
for the last six months period. This
includes, 1865, 900 for divisional admin
istration expenses and $250,000 donat-
ed for telegraph and cable service,
the latter item extending over a con-
siderably longer period of time.
Dues Pay Administration Cost.
Appropriations for administration
did not come out of the War Fund,
but were more than covered from the
portion of membership dues received
at national headquarters, the War
Council says. These membership dues,
which more than paid for all admins
trative expenses, were dues received
before the recent membership drive
was made.
: The report of the War Council
states:
mo expenses of administration in
the United States were paid for out OF
the Red Cross War Fund. All admin
istration is more than me by MEM
bership dues. Thus every dollar con-
tributed for relief goes to relief"
The following is a recapitulation OF
appropriations as announced by the
War Council.

save his CULVER and a bath towel.
But what used to be called modesty
is now listed as prudishness. The
average maid Of today doesn't blink
at a flock of Cupids, Psyches, Venuses
or Dianas. She can mingle on equal
terms with the undressed parade at
the seaside and she has her picture in
the pink G showing nothing much
but her legs and teeth. She gossips
about eugenics and birth control much
as the girl Of old did about Little
Goldenlocks and the three bears. If a
sweetheart should send her a little box
couch effect made of lace paper, hearts
and pink roses she would yawn him
off the premises.
So 1t is that the old-style valentine
Is pretty much numbered with the
slain. The very young, the very old,
the very modest and the quantity ro-
mantle, may indulge, but not your lat
ter day lovers. The day of st. Valen-
tine may be remembered by gifts to
sweethearts, but they are more apt to
be silver cigarette cases or cocktail
sets rather than the flmy Cupids Of
other days.-Los Angeles Times.

was not wealthy. Neither had he an

Total appropriations from
all funds to January 9.
1918 $79, 46O, 727.35
Every appropriation since the ap-
pointment of the Wal Council up to
January 9 is itemized in the report,
together with a detailed description Of
the for which the appropria-
lions were made. For instance, the
item, $4,432,014 for supplies for dis
tribution in the United States and
abroad, covers appropriations for the
purchase of 297 1888 blankets, $4,000
~comforters, 1,050,000 sweaters, 100000
! helmets, 25O,O00 wooden gloves, 10000
wooden wristlets and 100000 wooden
socks.
Condition of the War Fund.
The total amount pledged in the
campaign for the Red Cross Wal Fund
last June was $103, 0 10000, exclusive
of dividends declared by corporations,
the War Council announces. The to-
tai amount collected was 500, 925, 256.05
up to December %, 1917.
In addition there has been collected
direct at national headquarters, either
In special or direct contributions, 3d.
319,352.19, making a total amount col
lected, less certain refunds, $97, 1885,
256.65. Included in this amount, how
ever, is the known amount that was
received from dividends.
The War Finance Committee of the
Red Cross estimated the total gross
amount which it will receive will be
SOB, 525, 1854, but this does not in
clude a sum which amounts to $780,
600 retained by chapters, in accordance
with the arrangement by which they
were to receive % per cent. of collec-
lions. Thus the gross mount of the
Wal Fund may be stated to be, includ-
ing interest to date, $106, 500, 900, the
War Council announces.

Oh for the wing of the wild bird,
Daring and ,dauntiess and free,
The silence and scent of the forest,
The breath of the hills and the sea-
Down the dim shores of dream-islands,
On through the ocean of blue,
TO fly with a comrade. a lover,
A soul that is always true.
Oh for rest were the star-gleams
Keep with the darkness truce
IN shades of the evergreen pinetree
Or groves of the odorous spruce.
Slumbering mid spacious horizons
Under the sentinel stars,
Breathing the balm of the balsams,
The fragrance of deodars;
Waking to see Ger the hilltops,
Daylights fair banners unfurled
When morning comes finging her glories
Up the round sweeps of the world.
Then under splendid cloud arches,
Up the vast reaches of sky,
Pinion to pinon wide soaring,
My comrade-lover and I.
Far on the wing of the wild-bird
Daring and dauntless would flee,
Inhaling the air of the mountain,
The scent of the Infinite sea.

To turn about, and be sincere

A route that brings joyous day,
Is still within our call.
Just try the road that's not so rough,
For it paved with merry smiles.
And all will help--not stoop to cuff
You along the weary miles.
A road where ray of sunshine
Creeps in, all along the way,
Where men are willing all the time
ITO help you, from day to day.
For, AS you SOW, so shall you reap;
The Good Book will tell you so
Into your mind let this fact seep,
It's something you should know;
And when you reach the journeys end,
Along this narrow pathway,
You'll find it pays to lend hand
To one that don't know the way.
