These are not few buildings used
because they proved my point, but are
examples picked at random and show
concluslvely that in spite Of the in

USE HOTBEDS AND
COLD-FRAMES FOR
STORING VEGETABLES

The empty hotbed and cold-frame
may be used to good advantage dur
ing the fall and winter for storing
vegetables, says J. T. Rosa, Jr., of the
University of Missouri College of Ag-
riculture. The empty pit is then avail
able for storing in bulk potatoes and
root crops of all kinds. Celery and
cabbage also can be stored here by
pulling the plants with the roots on
and setting them closely together in
the upright position, with the roots
embedded in a few inches Of loose
moist soil in the bottom of the pit.
The cold frame is used in the same
way as the hotbed; but since it has no
pit, its capacity is limited, The reg
ular glass sash can he used for vege-
table storage, but they must be sup
plemented with board shutters, straw
mats, or loose straw to protect the
contents from sunlight and from
freezing and thawing. The walls on
the outside should be well banked with
soil or manure.

An appeal has come to the Mon

The suffering and need of these I'M

to 25th.
The next ship sails November 18th,
and will reach the other side before
winter has these helpless and home

to The Waters Printing office, where

Constipation.

The beginning of almost every Sc
rious disorder is constipation. If you
want to enjoy good health keep your
bowels regular. This is best accomp-
lished by proper diet and exercise,
but sometimes medicine is needed
and when that is the case you will
find Chamberlain's Tablets are excel
lent. They are mild and gentle in
their action, easy and pleasant to take.
Give them a trial. They only cost
quarter. Obtainable everywhere. ad.

Columbus went before the Ameri-
can public for funds on their record
of having charged nothing for any
thing which they distributed among
the boys here and overseas, and our
determination to adhere strictly to a
similar plan in future operations.
"The goods distributed consisted of
tobacco, crackers, biscuits, chewing
gum, candy, athletic goods, soap, sta
tionery, etc. From every platform
in the country, while the Drive was
in progress, we proclaimed it was our
plan to adhere to this policy which not
only the public but the boys in the
service appreciated and as far as we
could determine, insisted upon.

Of policy now in such radical respect,

This is the resolution adopted by the
Supreme Board in Chicago, Monday
night:
Whereas, the Committee of Eleven
of the United War Drive and the Com
mission on Training Camp Activities
have proposed to restrict the free dis
tribution of creature comforts by the
Knights of Columbus, and further pro-
posed to ask the Secretary of War to
require the knights of Columbus to
observe such a regulation. Now, there
fore, the Board of Directors of the
knights of Columbus respectfully en-
ter their objection to this attitude on
the part of said Committee of Eleven
and said Commission on Training
Camp Activities; the Board of Direc-
tors of the knights of Columbus re-
spectfully submit that all moneys ex-
pended come from the people at large,
that in the use of moneys so received
and collected from its own member
ship before the United Drive they had
sought to interpret the wishes of the
donors with the result that large
proportion was expended for tobacco,
cigarettes, candy, chocolate, hot
drinks, etc, and their intention for
the future is to expend moneys freely
in the same way.
Our buildings are free; our enter
tainments are free; our work in the
hospitals, on trains, and transports is
free; our athletics are free; our sta
tionery is free; our literature is free;
our entire service is free, so have been
our cigarettes candy, chocolate, and
hot drinks. Why must we change?
Why everything free except those few
little creature comforts, just the things
that a visiting father or mother would
bring to their boy in the service?
Why any restriction on the amount to
be expended for this purpose when
there is no waste or extravaganza in
the distribution.
'1n addition, of course, the knights
of Columbus have conducted many
other activities for the physical moral,
educational and recreati9hal welfare
for all those i'll service ffeely.
"The knights of Columbus welcome
advice and constructive criticism.
They make no complaint rs to the
activities Of other societies; they
claim no exclusive right to give things
| away or to any other war activities.
AS trustees of these funds donated for
the welfare Of men in the service, the
knights of Columbus deny the right
of said Committee and Commission to
restrict them in giving away the whole,
or any part of these funds for creature
comforts. therefore,
"Be it resolved, by the Board of
Directors of the knights of Columbus,
that Committee consisting Of the
Supreme Officers be appointed to wait
upon the Secretary of War and make
! known the position of the knights of
Columbus in this matter"

Some Pieces of Good Advice az Pos
sbIe keynotes for Coming

Here are some of the pieces Of good
advice l.. B. Franklin, National Di-
rector of the War Loan Organization,
has given to War Savings Stamp
workers as possible keynotes for thrift
campaigns:
We do not want to make ma
tion of tightwads but we do want
to eliminate the darn fool waste.
Spend wisely and save your
money so that you can go into
business for yourself.
Spend less and pay of the mort
gage or send your boy to college.
Put little Joy into saving.
A French housewife can feed
family on what an American
family wastes.

or ice cream or something like that
he is more apt to make good in his|
resolution if he has fellow resolver,
someone else who is undergoing the
same denial with the same purpose in|
mind" Mr.. Franklin said. 1T is a|
Joint 'swearoff This is the thing
we want the American people to do,|

ing. And of course we want them to
invest the saving in War Savings
Stamps.

ings societies. Each member of a So
ciety will be War Savings Stamp
buyer and each will want to hold up
his end, especially when he knows
that every other member Is doing his
share"
This mild compulsion by public
opinion as it exists in the society win
this year take the place of the quota.
and allotment system of selling War
Savings Stamps which was used last
year. The w. S. S. buyer is to bo.
made to want to save as much as he
can. rather than to feel that he must
save such and such an amount. Mr..
Franklin said the quota system Of
War Savings Stamp sales was not IN
