A LIVING MONUMENT
TO OUR DEAD HEROES

Memorials in cold stone with their
allegorical figures are not enough to
perpetuate the memory Of our dead
who lie in France. At least that is the
belief OF the citizens of Clarinda, iowa
who on Memorial Day contributed a
fund toward a living monument. Tween
ty-one French war orphans make up
that living monument, one fathcrlesS
child for every Clarinda boy who gave
his life for the cause Of humanity
The public spirited men ana women of
that town will care for these little
Trench orphans with this fund, paying
for their support through the Ameri-
lean branch Of The Fatherless Children
Of France, an organization co-operat
ing with a similar one of which Mar
shall Joffre is head. to care for the
little French children left 9atherless
through the havoc Of war.
There are G0,000 French war or

American organization. Three dollars

linda citizens have paid for each child

with the intention Of repeating the

This small sum supplements an

French Government to each war or

"JEWELRY" OF NASAL WOMEN

OF all Africa's many tribes, none is
more distinctive than the Nasal, that
warlike race of British East Africa,
whose women are regarded as the best
looking of all negroes. They are slen-
der, we'll formed, and lack the abnor-
NAL hips so characteristic of many 9TH
er natives Pride in personal adorn-
ment is shown by ornaments of a re-
markable nature, telegraph wire being
cOiled about their arms and limbs in
spiral fashion.
So awkward is this remarkable jew
elry that the wearer cannot walk prop
erly, nor can she sit down nor rise like
other human beings. Round her arms
she has wire coiled both above and be-
low her elbows, while still more wire is
coiled round her neck horizontally, till
the head seems to sit on an inverted
iron salver. Put on at an early age,
these ornaments must remain unless
they are sawed off. AS result of this
compression the limbs remain like
mere stills, the wire frequently be-
coming embedded into the flesh. Be-
sides this iron wire, often weighing 80
pounds or more, great quantities Of
beads and iron chains are hung in va
rious ways round the neck.
During the period of engagement the
girl wears round her head band COW
cred with cowries from which hang a
number of strings forming bridal veil.
For the first time she dons real clothes,
consisting of an apron in front, sus-
pended from the shoulders behind. The
hairs Of the eyebrow are pulled out to
further enhance her beauty.

WILL RID COUNTY
 OF CATTLE TICKS
FEDERAL, STATE AND COUNTY AUTHORITIES ORGANIZE FOR VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN AGAIN. ST ARCH ENEMY OF CATTLE

If the proper spirit of cooperation is shown by the people of Lee county during the next seven months the county will be entirely free from the pest of cattle tick. If there are those who persist in fighting the governments program to promote the livestock industry it may take another year to get Lee county free from the tick.
 This in brief is the statement made yesterday by Dr. c. A. Jerome of Little Rock, assistant inspector who has been placed in charge of the work in Lee county. Marshal Britain has been made department supervisor and he will have general charge of all the forty vats in the county. V. M. Boggs residing near Marianna; s. A. Douglas of Gill; and Jim Smith of Oak Forrest, are the assistants of MT. Britain. The dipping of cattle will begin at once and will contiDue every two weeks until the first of December, except in those sections where the inspect ors find the tick has been entirely eradicated. Dr. Jerome said it was not the purpose of the authorities to enforce the dipping order any longer than is absolutely necessary to rid any given community of the pest. But one thing he emphasized, and that is that Lee county will be made free of the tick sooner or later. If the people will join heart fly in the movement the work can be finished within seven months. If they rebel it may take two or three years and entail heavy expense up- on the taxpayers and endless worry to the authorities and to the indi- viduals who object and result in the destruction of property as it has in other counties, but finally the federal authorities will weed out the offenders and punish them.
 Marshal Britain ,who will be in charge of the work here, stated yesterday he anticipated very little opposition to the dipping program. He recognized the fact that in some sections the sentiment is inclined to be against the progressive move, but he thought the prevailing senti- ment in the county was favorable to the dipping program.
 Dr. Jerome and his local assist ants began yesterday to charge the vats and it is expected the dipping will start at once.
