NEXT RED CROSS DRIVE
 TO COME IN NOVEMBER

An appeal to the American people for funds to carry on the work of the American Red Cross will be made next November, according to the fol- lowing statement by pr. Livingston Farrand, chairman of the central com mittee of the organizations:
 Appalling conditions in the coun- tries of eastern Europe, imposing on the American Red Cross obligations additional to those assumed during the period of the world war, and the con tinuance of activities in connection with the already outlined domestic program of the Red Cross, make nec- essary an appeal to the people Of America for further funds to carry on the work for the relief of humanity.
 Tt has been decided to make this appeal in the autumn, in a period of two weeks eliminating on the 11th of November, the anniversary of the signing of the armistice-a season when the American people may prop erly give manifestation, through con- tributions to their Red Cross, of their thankfulness for deliverance from add ed horrors of war which have fallen upon nations less fortunate.
 "At present the American Red Cross is bringing to close it's activi- ties in the countries of western Flu rope, and with the withdrawal of American troops from the war zone its work for the army abroad will end automatically. Disease and suffering of the most heartrending character, however. are calling for relief in other fields. The new international organ ization of Red Cross societies is pre- pairing to deal with relief and health problems throughout the world in fu- ture years, but there are immediate emergencies which require the aid of the agencies already established. And foremost among these agencies is the American Red Cross. At present emergencies are being met with all the resources available; hut it is apparent that the imperative calls for assistance for the next year or more will make additional funds necessary.
 "It is anticipated that the gener- ous heart of the American people will respond to the appeal to the full ex- tent of the needs that will present themselves"

A Thoughtful Combination

woman will realize the charm and in- fluence of her clothes, and give to their selection sufficient amount of time. When one is we'll dressed one feels better mentally and physically and the effect of this pleasing atmos- phere on the association is most agreeable to both concerned.
 This is especially true when one is about to enter into a ceremony. The young girl graduate must look her very best on this meritorious day and if she is not we'll dressed, surely she can not feel as comfortable as she should. Much depends on her frock, which should be chosen with the utter most precision.
 !, For Graduation Day
 Simplicity, of course, is noted in all frocks for this occasion. The fact that simplicity must rule, however, does not in any way mitigate the variety and charm of the selection. The most appealing things are made on simple lines. The material is an important factor in the development of the frock.' The illustration of the frock for the younger girl is an excellent example of this. The lines are extremely sim pie. and there is no trimming, but the exquisite material is sufficiently in- teresting to substitute for other at fractions. The underskirt is developed in plain satin and the tunic and pan els of the waist are made of figured Georgette. The puffs of the sleeves are of plain Georgette and the girdle is of satin ribbon.

WORDS OF WISDOM

A preferred creditor is one who never troubles you.
 People who are intoxicated with mu- sic must be air tight.
 Unpaid bills are sometimes the source of poets best efforts.
 A record is fragile thing. You can not lower one without breaking it.
 The average young man finds it easier to get wife than the furniture.
 The man who makes proverbs the sole rule of his life never has to take anti-fat.
 There can be no objection to a girl trying to peer into the future, but she should never look forward.
 Probably nothing hurts mans van- ity more than the discovery that some- one has worked bad nickel on him.

THE COST OF WIVES

What is the market in wives? It is said that among the Ainus the price of one is a bear ham. The Kaffir fig ure varies from four to eight oxen, according to the competition for the particular bride.
 A score of cartridges buys wife in Uganda, and the Australian black gives the weight of his better half in butter, while the Tartars in Turkestan get as many wives as they want at the rate of a box of matches each.
 In Wales wives are given away they are paid for afterwardy mostly in weekly installments.

SHE HAD NOT THE HEART

A country woman came along the railway platform and sat on seat beside hospital nurse who was wait ing for a train. With a sigh of re- lief she disposed of her parcels and umbrella. Then she began to chat.
 "Ah," she said, looking at the pret- ty nurses uniform, admiringly, I do not know what we would do without the likes of you"
 "Oh, you are too hnd," protested the nurse. "I'm sure you do worthy things every day"
 Mot me, miss," said the old lady. "I can kill duck or fowl with the best--that I admit; but when it comes to human beings, my heart fails me-"

UNCLE SAM" AND
The HOME GARDEN
Well Known CIV Leader Shows t:oW
Vegetable Garden viii Cut The
Farn;iy Store Bill In Half

Atlanta, tSpecial.)-"Few peo-
pie realize the actual money-savinS
power Of the home vegetable garden
and what it can be made to contrib
ute in the way Of food for the fam
lily table, says President H. G, Has
tings, OF the Georgia State Chamber
of Commerce, and the Southeastern
Fair, in discussing the matter OF food
supply for the South in 1919.
Uncle Sam, through the United
States Department of Agriculture"
said Mr.. Hastings, estimated the
value of the vegetables produced last
year in home gardens of the United
States at three hundred and fifty mil
lion of dollars. This means that much
actually saved by the garden makers
from their store bills.
whenever there is lack of food or
money to buy food, no matter wheth-
er it be due to worldwide food scare
ity, boil weevil damage or other cause,
the first word Uncle Sam passes out
to the sufferer is to make a good big
home garden. Why? Because the
right kind of home garden is the
quickest, cheapest and best source OF
food supply there is.
"The great trouble here in the South
is that our people don't take the home
garden seriously enough, or give II
the attention that it's importance as
food producer and money-saver justl-
fies. 1t is mostly made with lick
and promise and the cultivation ana
replanting it gets during the growing
season is mostly of the unfulhlied
promise kind
with the present and certain-to-be
continued high food prices on the one
hand, and the very great uncertainty
as to the price that cotton or other
cash crops will sell for next fall, 1t is
a time above all others to play safe.
"This is no time to gamble on COT
ton. None of US can tell within 10
cents a pound what it will sell Tor
next fall. The farmer who makes few
or no store debts for food, producing
his own and family needs on home
acres, is safe regardless of cotton
prices, and he is the only one who
is safe.
"The right kind of home garden
maintained all through the season and
given a square deal in the way of cul-
tivation, is the greatest store-bill-cut-
ter on record. A quarter to half an
acre garden for the average family
will cut the store bill in half"
