Peach Stones, Fruit Pits
And Nut Shells Will
Protect Soldiers From
German Gas
Collection Campaign Being Made
BY The Red Cross And All
Persons Are Urged To
Cooperate

Every Red Cross chapter in Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama, representing
a membership of more than 100000, and
all other persons are being recruited, be-
to collect peach stones, fruit pits and nut
shells.
The fruit stones and the likes will be
used to produce carbon to protect Ameri-
can soldiers from German poison gas
The campaign of collecting the fruit
stones is nation wide, and it is expected
that the needs for many millions of the
stones will be quickly met
"This is an emergency appeal is the
word to the Red Cross chapters. cit is
question of saving lives and health of
our men overseas from the German pois-
on gas. Every patriotic citizen in the
whole country should be Eager to take
part in this campaign
Juniors of the Red Cross, officials of
the Food Administration and other gov
eminent agencies throughout the country
are cooperating with the Red Cross in
collection Of the fruit stones.
Here is a list Of the materials to be
collected Peach stones or seeds, april
cot, prune, plum, olive pits, date seeds,
cherry pits, Brazil nut shells, walnut
shells, hickory and butternut Shells
1t is not necessary that housewives
and others separate the seeds. They NAV
be mixed together. Any of these ma
terials, no matter how old, will be ac
cepted.
Everyone should thoroughly dry the
pits and nuts in ovens or in the sun be-
fore they are delivered 10 the Red Cross
collection centers. This is extremely i'm
portant. 1t will simplify matters if the
individuals, restaurants, hotels, etc, dry
their own pits and seeds before turning
them over to the Red Cross. There is no
objection to storing the materials out
doors as the rain does them no harm. but
they must be thoroughly dried when de-
llvered to the collection centers

AS CHINAMAN SEES KAISER
Has Sympathy With the
"AlI-Hiohest."

Here are some comments on the
kaiser from the pen of a Chinese stu
dent, an exchange says:
'"The German kaiser is not the su-
perlor man as deciphered by the Chi
nese literature; he is surely a mean
fellow containing much fraudish cum
ming in his deceited heart. The supe-
riOr man is shown in the merits of
excellent heart with much loving kind
ness to all peoples; the mean fellow
Is displayed in the black heart of the
unregenerated devils of hell with much
loving kindness only to himself.
TN the history of China was an en-
peror who burn the books and slowed
the scholars to extinct the civilization
of the peaceful inhabitants; but he
was not success in this crafty tricks,
for the civilizations could never be
extinct by such dishonorable barbar-
ism means. Now the German kaiser
he also awfully wishing to slave the
people and extinct the civilizations of
the universe; he also destroy the lit
erature books, and the arts, and the
ships, and mess the people of allies
nations. But he will not sue

Oldest Living West Pointer.

General Horatio Gates Gibson, the
oldest living graduate of West Point
veteran of the Mexican civil and In
dian wars, has just celebrated his
Dist birthday in good health and
spirits.
Among the guests Of the soldier on
his birthday were a few surviving
members of the Aztec Club, which
was formed by officers of the service
in the city of Mexico seventy-one years
ago. There is only a Squad of the
original members of this club living.
Gen. Gibson Is one Of them and is the
organizations president.
1t is probable that this veteran
thought as a young soldier, after cam
paigning from Vera Cruz to the city
Of Mexico under the leadership of
Gen. Winfield Scott that the Mexican
war was a good deal of q war. 1t is
likely, also. after serving as an ar.
tillery chieftain through the cam
paigns from 81 to rs, that he thought
the civil war was about the biggest
thing In the shape Of a war that ever
happened or could happen. Today,
this man Of service, 81 years of age;
is under the necessity of readjusting
his earlier thoughts on the compara-
tive magnitude Of conflicts between
nat1ons.-St Louis Post-Dispatch

CALAIS LONG FAMOUS PORT
Three Nations Have Held City Which
the Germans Are Now So Eager
TO Possess.

Since the beginning Of the war
Calais has been an objective Of the
German army. 1t is a familiar name
to those who have crossed the 26 miles
Of nasty choppy water that lies be-
tween Calais and the English port Of
Dover.
Fifty years ago Calais was regard
it would now probably not be able to
defend itself many days against mod
ern artillery. In 1346, after the bat
tie Of Crecy, Calais was besieged by
the English King Edward III, holding
out resolutely by the bravery Of Jean
from the cruel fate with which Ed
ward menaced them by the devotion
of seven Of its chief citizens, who in
turn were themselves spared at the
prayer of Queen Phillipa. this event
having been commemorated in a wide
~ known historical painting.
Calais remained In the hands Of the
English until 1863 when 1t was taken
by the duke Of Guise, at the head of
10000 men, from an ill-provided Eng
fish garrison only 800 strong, after
siege Of seven days. This loss led to
the remark Of an English queen, who
declared that when she died the word
"Calais" would be found imprinted on
her heart. Calais was held by the
Spaniards from 1895 to 1893. but was
restored to the French by treaty.
On the chalk cliffs of Dover stands
q gun. several centuries old, on which
Is engraved the doggerel:
Feed me we'll and keep me clean,
And I'll send q ball to Calais green"
This was fiction, but modern artil-
lery could easily accomplish the feat.
