 In this theatre we have no special British interest of any sort to serve nor are we under any special obliga- uons to the inhabitants.

 Russian Problem BanIins.
 The problem in Russia can only be finally dealt with by the Allied states men in Paris. The question is cer- tainly the most grave and baffling ever presented to the human mind. History affords but dubious guidance upon it. All the current facts are vague, and most of them are nightly disputable. Every military factor is uncertain and variable within indefi- mite limits
 The political and psychological re- actions which would be attendant upon this or that step, if taken, are lncalculable, and yet theSe reactions would fundamentally alter the values Of all military factors concerned.
 Lastly each Ally necessarily views this problem from a diffenert point of view, and in these circumstances. 1t is q great deal easier to demand clear cut decisions than it is to give them.

CHAIRMAN TELLS
WHAT RED CROSS
PLANS in PEACE
BY GORDON HOWELL
County Chairman, Red Cross Third
Roll Call.

Roll Call
The Red Cross committees are
daily confronted with the question
What are you going to do with the
money raised, and what is the use of
raising money, now that the war is
over?'
In order that the people of Ameri-
Gus and surrounding country may
know just what are the plans of the
Red Cross are, am going to give for
the next few days brief sketch of
the plans. Today l am discussing
Nursing Service.
During the Spanish-American war
it was found that the sanitary condi-
ton of army camps and the men gen
orally must be improved. Twenty
thousands soldiers during this period
died from typhoid fever and $4,000
died on the border from the same
cause. During the Worlds war, out
of the $4,000 men wounded, 1922
600 were restored to health so that
they could return to line of duty, due
to the good work Of the medical corps
and the Red Cross.
The influenza alone killed 100000
in America in one year, just ten times
as many as were killed of our men
during the recent war. During the
year 1918 10000 people died of tu-
berculosis. Each year $4,000 babies
die--in fact two out of each seven.
During the recent war 100000 men
were rejected for physical disability;
it is estimated the rs per cent We're
disqualified from preventable dis
eases. Are not these figures enough
to make up sit up and take notice.
The Red Cross plans for the con-
troll and prevention of diseases by:
1st Continuing educational
classe in home hygiene and home
nursing in order to make every home
better prepared to meet the problems
of sickness and hygiene.
Establishing of public
health nursing service in every chap
ter.
The idea is to prevent diseases,
then it will not be necessary to cure.
In connection will be a question box
The public health nurse will con-
tribute to the health conditions of a
community in the following ways:

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take a
tablespoonful of the tea, put a cup of
boiling water upon it, pour through 3
sieve and drink teacup full at any
time during the day or before retiring.
1t is the most effective way to break a
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus driving a
cold from the system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.
