PROPER CARE OF THE SICK
Nurses Duties Are onerous, but They
Must Be Recognized as Highly
Necessary.

1t is, important that the mother or
nurse attending a child with n o
tagious disease should take a long
walk in the fresh air every day. The
best way for her to arrange this is
to keep a change of clothing in the
room next TO the sick room. She
should also battle before leaving the
house or in fact before she comes in
contact with anyone. If Il bathroom
has been set aside for quarantine, she
should use this; if not, a screen and Il
basin must answer. She can then slip
into the next DON and change her
clothing.
She should leave the house by the
back way, or, at any rate, avoid COM
ing in contact with any of the occu-
pants of the house. Once on the
street she should not use the street
cars nor enter another house and, IL
possible, should avoid touching any
one.

tons, efforts toward cleaner threshing
saved fully 10000, 600 bushels Of wheat
with corresponding savings of other

similar manner. In addition, other

KEEP YOUR BONDS.
(LeSlie's Weekly


Lists of those who bought Govern
ment bonds are easily obtained in
every community in the country
They furnish the finest complication
Of prospects" ever made available
to security statesmen. AS a result
there are to-day some thousands OF
vendors, more or less, but most more,
dubious securities, who are working
IL hours a day calling up people
who subscribed to Government loans.
1t has been stated in responsible
quarters that as much as $500, 000,-
900 of Liberty bonds placed with in
vestors have already fallen into the
hands Of dishonest brokers in ex-
change for shares of wildcat oil OF
mining issues. The estimate is, un-
doubtedly, much too large, but the
lesson is none the less plain.
If you have a Liberty bond, or are
engaged in buying one on the install
ment plan, do not let go of it except
under the urge of a real need for the
money represented, and then turn il
over to a bank or responsible invest
ment house to be sold. Under no cir
cumstances surrender it to a travel
ing salesman who promises you any
where from 10 to 40 per cent on

ALLIES ARE FED

Generous Doing Without i
America Supplied Food
to Europe.

Exports from this country since 1t
entered the war have kept starvation
from Allied Europe and have main
tanned the health and strength Of those
who have been bearing the brunt Of
our battles, SO that they could hold
out 10 victory. Now that hostilities
have ceased we must assume the add
ed burden Of keeping starvation from
Increasing its toll upon the millions
who have been liberated from the
Prussian yoke. Famine would undo
the work which has been accomplished
In freeing the world for democracy. No
stable government can be established
and maintained by a nation harassed
by hunger. A starving people turns
to rioting and anarchy. Food has
given strength and courage to the ma
lions fighting for democracy: 1t must
now give the nations strength and
tranquility TO re-establish themselves
I'm freedom and democracy.
Without our help IT would have been
absolutely impossible for the Allies to
maintain a living ration. Since our
entry into the war we have been con-
tributing largely to the support Of one
hundred and twenty million people
whose normal food supplies have been
cut OF, whose production has fallen
almost to the vanishing point, whose
fields have been devastated by Ger
many. The food exported from the
United States In the past year has
been sufficient to supply the complete
ration ofStwenty-two million people. 2
1t IL hard to grasp the magnitude
and significance Of the assistance
which has been lent the Allies BY the
patriotic, voluntary service Of the
American people The food we sent
abroad last year would have been suf-5
acient to feed one-fifth Of our popula-
ton. And this was done I'm spite of
short crops. Our surplus was practi-
cally nothing. An overwhelming pro-
portion of the food that left this coun-
try last year was saved out Of the nor
NAL home consumption Of our own
people.
In spite Of difficulties met In inter-
nal transportation and shortage Of
ocean tonnage our food exports last
year amounted to figure that a few
years ago would have been unbelieva-
