Removing Fruit Stains
Menace to Frocks

In summer. fruit stains are a men
ace to ones napery. Practically all
fresh fruit stains. II worked with when
moist may be removed with cold water.
When they are dry they are more diff
cult to do away with.
This is especially true of the dark
coloring matter OF peaches and berries.
1t is never well TO use soap on these
stains. because the alkaIi in the soap.
in the majority OF cases. sets the colors.
Fruit stains may he removed from
fast colored or white wash materials
by stretching the stained article across
a bowl and pouring boiling water upon
1t from height Of several feet. This
is done In order that the water may
strike the fabric with some force. If
the stain proves resistant, rub and

TO PROTECT THE KAISER

From Berlin comes the news that
a .league for the protection OF the
personal liberty and life OF the
Kaiser has been ormed and vii! APP
peal to The former advisers OF the
ex-Emperor, as well as diplomats
with whom he was associated, to sub
nit all possible documents to prove
the Emperor's innocence Of the out
break of the war.
Prince Henry Of Prussia, we are
told, was first proposed for president
of the League, but he suggested Won
Hindenburg.
AS is suggested by contemporary,
there were probably several good rea-
sons why Wilhelm's brother: Henry
felt himself unqualified to serve, one
of which might have been his ina
bility to conceal certain first-hand
knowledge which would defeat the
objects Of such a league. Prince
Henry's apparently peaceful visit to
this country about twenty years ago
has since been, shown to have been
not unconnected with an effort on
the kaiser's part to spy into the
military resources and the public tenn
per of this country. Won Hinden5urg
very probably doesn't know as much
of this sort Of thing as Prince Henry
does.
Prince Henry, it will be remember
ed, passed through Alexandria, on
his way to Mount Vernon during his
visit to the United States. No one
at tae time dreamed that before the
close Of {. score of years our country
would De forced to draw its sword to
preserve the Liberty obtained for US
by the Heroes Of 1776.

THE YEAR OF JUBILEE

The year 1919 arrived last night
on schedule time, and the town, rs is
usual on such occasions, was painted
red. There was JOY in the air, and
while the younger generation did not
follow : the custom of ancient Scot
land by remaining in the streets all
night onswhat is known in that lard
as "first. night" many were abroad
at the hour when churchyards are
said to yawn. Horns were decidedly
in evidence, as were explosives, and
discharges we're heard in all sections
after the infant year mad been in
stalled in due and ancient fern.
There were private parties in many
homes where young and old gathered
and exchanged the compliments of
the season Parents embraced child
rem, friends and acquaintance shook
binds and all drank the spirit o. the
occasion. While conditions meteoroiog-
ically were not propitious for outdoor
pleasures, rain clouds floating over
head with steady drizzle, the fact
that the war cloud has passed away
and that the Goddess of Peace was
once more upon the throne Of the
world caused US to ignore prevailing
conditions. |
Most OF us. as had been our. wort
during most of life. have made re-
solves for the new year. These resolu-

APPEALS TO WOMEN

The writer has, up to this time,
been a consistent and persistent OPP
ponent to woman suffrage, but as 1t
seems that the men of the commun-
ity can not, or will not do anything
to bring about reasonable service
in the matter of adequate supply OF
gas Notwithstanding that the gas
works are city owned, it seems 70 be
about time to turn over our munic-
ipal affairs to the women.
1t is not believed that they would
tolerate such child's play as is now
most apparent to the public at large.
The people have been very patient;
entirely too patient, and it is time
that some drastic action be taken
and that without any further de-
lay.
The plant is there and we want the
gas.

WILL EXHIBIT SUBMARINES

Two of the surrendered German
U-boats are moored in the Harbcr Of
Portsmouth, England. They are OBJ
jects Of much curiosity. One of the
captive submarine is under the shad-
ow of Nelson's flagship, the Victory.
1t is believed 20 be the plan, of the
British government to send these
boats to the United States and Cam
ada to give the people there an OPP
portunity TO see them.
Should his program be carried out
the, people Of Alexandria and Wash
ington may be given an opportunity
to inspect these heretofore terrors
CT the deep.
1t had been long time since any
thing curious in marine architecture
has anchored off our city. The Con-
federate ram "Stonewall" came here
in 1865, and was viewed with inter-
est by our. people. They wculd be
equally interested in German sub
marines.

TO READERS OF THE GAZETTE

The kind indulgence of the many
readers Of the Gazette who have re-
Gently been compelled to wait long for
it's appearance at their homes IS
asked. This is through no fault OF
our own, but arises from circumstan-
ces over which we have no control.
. But two or three persons in AleXan-
dria CIR operate type-setting ma
chimes, and when those engaged IN
this capacity, for any cause, are COM
PEELED to remain away the dlttlculty
of setting up the paper is serious.
We have been up against this propo-
sition on divers occasions recently,
and these who labor in preparing the
news and writing up the paper are
often disheartened when they realieZ
their work is nile, as the late ap-
pearance of the paper is the cause
of some not reading it until next
day.
A day or two ago neither one of
our linotype operators was able to be
present. the prevailing flu being
the cause, and we were compelled to
procure operators from Washington.
But one regular employee was on
hand today, and the early derange-
ment of the machine brought type
setting to standstil. Help from
Washington could not be procured,
before the afternoon was far spent,
and by The time the machines were
again in motion Ithe electric current
was burned off while certain work:
was in progress at the plant caus
ing a veXatious delay.
In addition to these serious handi-
caps he gas being of an unsatsifac-
tory nature, it was difficult to keep
the metal used in casting the lines
properly fused.
We have made arrangements, how
ever, by which we hope to rise above
our difficulties. and produce the Ga
zette at more satisfactory hour.
We again implore patience from
our subscribers, assuring them that
we will do our utmost to remedy
present conditions.

tons, born in good faith, can be
kept. We hear much Of the Father
hood of God and the Brotherhood of.
Man, and all can realize this import
ant truth, and as the days come and
go personal examinations as to our
growth in this principle should be
the rule Of all. Some are endowed
with divers talents for which they
will be compelled to render an inter-
est of che hundred per cent. Most
of US have but one, but one hundred
per cent. interest will be required on
that also. Many, however, hide this
one talent in napkin and at the
great day of assizes such will meet
with a terrible rebuke.
Whether we pray any other day
of the year or not, we should all Inite
today in the prayer that 1919 will
prove a champion joy-bringer. The
year 1918 brought woe to mllllons'
but it redeemed itself at the end by
producing peace from its pack. It
was the hest year we have had since
1915. # 1919 can follow up the
good work of 1918 and settle happily
all the tangled questions left by the
war, it will be a year of jubilee in,
deed.
