MONTHLY REPORT.
OF the Home Service Section of the
Red Cross.

One month ago on September %,
| assumed the duties as manager of
the home service section of the Red
Cross chapter of Bamberg. During
this time l have given as efficient SER
vice as could be expected when we
consider the fact that no definite
plans nor outline have been made for
the furtherance of this work, and
aside from the fact that no person
mel nor equippage have been furnish
ed other than voluntary offers and
supplies.
While it is characteristic of COM
munities to realize only slowly the
necessity of home service work, let
us hope the town of Bamberg is 60
ing to prove quite an exception to
this rule.
The home service section has been
serving so far as it could under the
circumstances the families of soldiers
and sailors in our midst, and has
even gone outside of this sphere of
action and ministered unto the fam
lilies of our civilian population where
such cases have not come strictly un-
der the care of other organizations.
Next to the duty of doing everything
possible to the families of soldiers
and sailors who have recently served
our cause so Faithfully, there could
be, it seems to me, no more patriotic
and charitable duty than that of pro-
tecting the handicapped children in
our midst. Under no circumstances
should any child be deprived of the
right to go to school even though
home surroundings and conditions
make it almost impossible.
Last month three illiterate chill
dren were enrolled in the public
school of our town, and they, togeth-
er with the father induced to attend
Sunday school and church regularly.
The need of these ill-clad, neglected
children has been responded to cheer
fully and willingly by old and young
alike in our community. The follow
ing contributions have been made to
help care for this particular case:
By Mrs. B. w. Simmons, of the
Methodist missionary society: pair
serge trousers, 1 woolen sweater, |
bby's coat; by Misses Louise Virgins,
Edna Spann and Eva Mae Spann, of
the Methodist junior missionary So
ciety: A supply of undergarments, l
sweater and cap, tooth brushes.
Little Misses Dorthy Brabham and
Margaret Stokes gave number Of
dresses and warm garments for the
winter; by Mesdames Cooner. Hair
and Free, of the Baptist missionary
society: 1 full dinner, lot Of hot
bread and cakes, a number of dress
es. shoes and hats.
Thus numbers have been gladden.
ed by the JOY expressed by these lit
tie ones over their pretty things. Out
Of about 100 or $50 of the mill fam
lilies in my charge, have called per-
sonally on so or more with no less
an object in view than that of finding
out and acquainting myself with the
people themselves, as we'll as condi-
tions in order that they might be
bettered in number of ways, some
of which I hope may be realized in
the near future. Many needs must
adequately be met by the home SER
vice section of the A. R. c. 1t opens
to all alike a door of peace time ac-
tivities, participation in which I in
vite all of you to join.

HOUSEWORK is A BURDEN


Woman's lot is weary one at best.
But with backache and other distress
ing kidney ills life indeed becomes a
burden. Doan's Kidney Pills have
made life brighter for many women.
Read what Mrs. L. A. Reagan, Flat
River, Mo-, says: "My back ached
constantly and it was impossible for
me to do any washing or ironing.
The least work tired me out and when
I stopped, had dizzy spells and could
hardly see. The way my kidneys
acted also caused me lot of distress.
Doan's Kidney Pills relieved the
backaches and regulated my kidneys

bladder trouble"

Ozark Forest Lands will Support Steers.

While inspecting one Of the Univer-
sity Forests recently F. B. Mumford,
Dean Of the University of Missouri
College Of Agriculture, saw good tim
ber and good cattle being raised on
the same ground at the same time
in the Ozark region. This is the ev-
eryday experience of Taney County
farmers. Much of the area of Taney
County is not suitable for farming.
A very considerable portion of it is
rocky, steep and rough. The soil is
primarily timber producing soil, the
forest being interrupted by numerous
openings or glades. Only the better
parts OF the uplsnds and the bottom
lands are suitable for the production
of ordinary farm crops.
Dean Mumford observed that his
experienbe had been, ''Two acres OF
bluegrass in well watered and fertile
region are required to support one
steer during the grazing season. The
animal can reasonably be expected to
put on from 200 to 400 pounds o.
weight during this time" Practica
experience in Taney County indicator
that five acres Of the land unsuited t,
farming will support steer for from
six to eight months and the steer vii
make o gain equal to that OF stee

this revered couple is that during the
years OF their absence in other places
they have always kept in touch with
jefferson county and her people. In
that almost mysterious reciprocity in
which kindness meets kindness and
love answers to love, the Jefferson
county folks have responded to many
calls upon them for sympathy in sor-
rows darkest hour as we'll as asking
them to share with them the sunshine
of happier days.
A writer in the Central Baptist,
speaking of the work of Mrs. Steel in
connection with that of her husband,
says: "Bro. Steel is ably seconded in
all his work by his good wife. Through
the years she has proved the faithful
wife, the devoted mother, the con-
slant loving disciple of her Lord"
The day of the celebration was ideal,
the weather beautiful, and the crowds
of friends from st. Louis, Ironton,
Blackwell, and especially from Flat
River, gave eloquent testimony to the
respect and love of their old and new
| friends.
The substantial gifts of friends hear
and far, added to the joy of the oc-
casion and, will long remain as
mementoes of great day in the lives
of those Immediately concerned.
Reference is made to this feature in
another place in this issue. From far
Seattle nephew and niece send this
beautiful and appropriate sentiment:
"You have scattered golden sunshine
Through fifty love-lit years,
And now milestone on your path
This golden day appears.
You've shown us how to walk with God
Through earthly grief and care,
And may He always bless you both,
This is our fervent prayer"

From DR.. Farmhouse.
Bixby, Mo-, May 12, 1919.

Dear Mr.. Ake-As the Fiftieth Gen
eral Assembly has adjourned, you and
your readers will no doubt, be glad
to have letter as to the result OF
their work. They passed number
of good bills. Workmen's Compensa-
tion, The McCullogh- Morgan Road
Bill and five bills affecting the Food
and Drug Department. The iee-cream
inspection law requires the manu-
facturers of ice cream to comply with
q standard of sanitation prescribed by
the Food and Drug Commissioner;
requires the wholesale manufacturers
to pay a license of $4,000 and manu-
facturers who sell at retail, a license
OF $500.
The Cold Storage act requires all
cold storage warehouses to pay Ii
cense Of $500 for the inspection OF
their plants, and requires them to file
statement with the Food and Drug
Commissioner on the 5th of each
month, listing such articles as they
have in cold store, and forbids any
article of food to be kept in cold
storage more than twelve months un-
less by permission of the Food and
Drug Commissioner.
The uniform egg law which has
been passed by most of states in the
Central West, will soon become law
in Missouri. This forbids the traffic
in eggs unfit for human food, and re-
quires dealers or shippers in car lots
to pay q license fee Of $1,000, and
other dealers who handle eggs, a
license fee of $500.
The egg breaking, or manufactur-
ing of egg products act, requires all
places where eggs are broken for
manufacturing purposes to come up
to sanitary requirement prescribed
by the Food and Drug Commissioner
and forbids the breaking, keeping or
shipping of rotten eggs for food pur-
poses either in shell, broken in cans,
dessicated or otherwise manufactured
as an egg product.
The most stringent act gives the
Food Commissioner, his Deputy OF
Inspectors the right to temporarily
close any place where food or drinh
is manufactured, stored, kept, sold Of
served, which is insanitary, dirty OF
filthy, and to not permitlof its being
re-opened until the cause or causeI
for closing have been removed. /

From Mr.. Webb.

Editor Register-I would like to
make known some facts about the
West End of Iron County that the
public may not know. know that
we bear pretty hard name and it is
true that we have some hog thieves
and some other thieves, and killing
now and then, but l want the public
to know that we are not all of that
kind of citizens, and to prove it will
state that we raised nearly fifty
thousand dollars in Bonds and Thrift
Stamps, and nearly five hundred dol
lars for the Red Gross to help support
and take care of thirty enlisted men
that we furnished from this precinct, to
put down the Huns. Two of our boys
will never return-one of them killed
in action on the firing line, the other
died at Camp Funston; not all these
boys got across, but it was no fault of
theirs. Five of the boys are over
there yet, but will return ere long.
They represented every branch of
the service-heavy and light artillery,
navy, marines, infantry and a real
wireless. One of our boys, Tommy
Brooks, is now gunner''s mate on one
of our battleships. Our wireless oper-
ator, Arthur Day, can send and receive
thirty words per minute. All these
boys went from the plow handles and
the wood choppers ak and all have
made good. With confidence I ven-
ture to say that not one of them dis
graced the uniform he wore, and will
not do 30 after his return home.
If any community has done better
than this we would like to hear from
them. / am an old soldier as we'll as
yourself, but to listen to the boys
now returning from this war, ours
was child's play, and yet, as you well
know, ours was no picnic.
And now should we hear a man
make slight remarks about a citizen
of the West End of Iron County let
him read these lines and compare US
with his own neighborhood and see
how they s'stack up."
Yours Truly,
w. H. WEBB.

DISMISS FORD
 SECOND TIME

The preliminary nearing of Frank Ford, who was arrested several +-ys ago on charge of bigamy on a com plaint sworn to by Beatrice Ford, who alleged that she was his wife at the time of his second marriage, was heard yesterday before Judge Win ters in Lowell. The hearing yester- day was under a second complaint on which Ford had been arrested, the county attorney having deemed that the first proceedings were not proper.
 The attorneys for the defendant filed an objection to the holding of the hearing on the ground that the justice court had no jurisdiction to entertain preliminary hearing as long as the previous charge still stood against Ford. The objection was sus- tained by the court and the second charge against Ford was dismissed.
 The trial on the original charge is scheduled to take place in the supe- rior court on October 13. However, as the county attorney has already deemed the proceedings under this complaint to be not proper, it is likely that this charge also will be, dis missed and Ford arrested third time on corrected cc>Siaint.
 The attorneys for the defendant are Maurice Blumenthal and Sam Kyle.

Murphy Has Another
 Good Day on Track

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept 26.- Tommy Murphy, who has led all driv- CTS for winning races in the present Grand Circuit meeting, had another big afternoon of it today when he won two of the four races on the program.
 Direct c. Burnett again mastered a field of fast pacers in the Arch City 2:10 stake, winning in three evenly rated miles. Baroness Edge wood was expected to show good form but she finished outside the money. Time, 2:03 1-2.
 Dr. Nick won the 2:1S trot when Murphy kept him ahead of Baron Cegantle, almost an equal favorite in the betting. Best time, 2:07 IA.
 In the second division of the POS pace, Aquilla Dillon, a western geld ing, was the best of the set, and in the second heat he stepped rhile in 2:04 IA. A large field scored in the 2:12 pace, which was won by Royal Earl after he had dropped the first heat to Cherry Willis. Best time, 2:05 IA.
 The meeting will be concluded to- morrow.

 HEAR COAST
 GROCERYMAN

Speaking at an open meeting of grocers and the public generally in Phelps-Dodge store last night, Paul Findlay, retail merchandiser of the California Fruit Growers exckange, held the fixed attention of his audi ence for nearly two hours with talk replete with facts, figures and statis- tics on the distribution of foods, par ticularly citrus fruits.
 Himself a graduate grocer of over 36 years practical, experience, Find lay believes in opening up the ma chinery of production and wholesale and retail distribution SO that all may see the inside works. "Retailers and their customers will understand each other much better if the consumer can be introduced to some of the diff faculties and perplexities of the re- taller" he declares. He cast side light on one phase ot fine procees problems when he showed that the average net profit is only about three per cent.
 "Thus. when a customer pays you $40 for her months bill cS groceries" !" said Findlay, she is uncertain just what you get Back in her head she thinks you get $40, but your share really is $1.20, actual net profit on the average. If you are a king-row mer- chant, you may get five per cent or s2 net earnings on that bill"
 A most interesting feature of the talk was Findlay's account of condi, tions which favor the increased sale and consumption of lemons. There exists a strange superstition" he said. that lemons viii sell just as freely at, say, three for 10 cents as at any other figure. But my experi- enee and investigation shows that lemons will go into consumption many times as cfst as now if you will follow the wholesale market down as immediately as you now follow 1t up. It has been shown time and again that if lemons are priced at 19, 2S, 20 and 29 cents the dozen, housewives buy dozens. When they are three fol 10 cents. they buy three. Another noint is that when a woman has a dozen lemons she makes lemon pies, as one dealer reported to me, and finds many ways to use them. If she has only three she won't use even those. Sell lemons by Che dozen. Sell them out each week and buy again. Thus will your customer make lemon pies.' their husbands will like the pies and demand more; tGen more will go into consumption, you will make more money and your customers will be better off because of this increased use of healthful food. Do not forget, also, that lemons which formerly went over the bar in immense quantities. in the form of mixed drinks, are going over the grocer's counter in future to the women if he will merchandise lemons inteiiigently. If he fails in this, the fruit specialists will nQS fail, and the grocer will lose another op- portunitv to retain a valuable line of merchandise in his store"

 Such a plan, he said, would have been unjust to Canada, New Zealand and Australia.
 He contended there was no reason for the United States to fear people who speak the same language, who have achieved civilization according to the same ethical rule, who have the same love of liberty and the same dread of autocracy, the same love of peace and the same hatred of war.
