JUNIOR RED CROSS NOTES

A letter from the director of the
thrift campaign compliments the Jun
ior Red Cross members and other
school children for the good showing
made in buying thrift stamps during
1918. He also says that he hopes we
will make a good showing during 1919.
Over $4,000 worth were bought dur
ing 1918.
last week mention that several large
boxes of clothing were shipped from
Dow City, Schleswig, Manila, Charter
Oak and Denison. This is the right
spirit. We have plenty and to spare
and this old clothing will help many
needy Belgians. ~ o.
Hoover says: Garden army work
should go on. The actual food pro-
duced was of material help by saving
of staple foods available for export,
thus giving them just so much more
of the food vital to them. The grow
ing of supplies for local use relieved
the strain upon the railroads. 1t
would be matter Of regret if this
work should not go on"
High school instructors In agricul-
ture should encourage home garden
work and all teachers should encour-
age the children to do their best. 1t
will help in the food supply for the
worlds needy.
Teacher and Child Health Service
The physical impairment Of our chill
dren is one Of the most disastrous by
products of the war.
Teachers can help much to prevent
this. It must be done now. Hence
this call to you for service. e..
The First Step
I. Measure the height of the child.
2. Weigh each child to find out
how many are below standard.
You will be surprised to find as
many as SO per. cent below the stand
ard. Noted physicians say that three
out of every four children are suffer-
ing from physical defects which may
be prevented or corrected.
= Out of the 22,00O,0OO children in the
United States nearly 100000 are
suffering from some physical defect
and 100000 are in bad physical con-
dition. They are below the normal
standard in weight for their height
and age. These children need imme-
diate attention. ~, Il
Underweight means that there is
definite cause, and has definite after
effects. w. ''$S9
1t is an unwise saving of money to
neglect to correct the physical defects
OF children.
Children will do better work, be
more contented and agreeable, and
will have a fair chance to make the
most out of their opportunities if their
physical condition is the best.

Home on Automobile Chassis

Gypsies have wandered throsh the
countries of Europe for the last 500 years.
but it has remained for an American
shoemaker and his wife to do the thing
in unprecedented style, as may be seen
from the illustration and description of
his touring outfit In the Popular Me-
chanics Magazine. Ordered to live in the
open air after an attack of flu the
shoemaker decided to tour the United
States BY means of publicity scheme
he secured the cooperation of the local
Chamber of Commerce, hired carpen-

HOUSEHOLD
GOODBYE EYEBROWS

Life was really getting too easy.
1t was beginning to seem as if all the
Lady Who-Wolld Be-Beautiful had to do
was just to keep her face clean, finger
nails carefully hled and her hair sham
poodle ard nealy arranged.
For with war. time activities the really
smart woman left off rouge and enamel.
She was content with a mere soupcon OF
pow der The mirror-like fnger-nail be-
came more usual with the young office
girl than with the millionaire's daughter
Henna went quite out of fashion and gray
and white hair suddenly came into its
own. And having discovered that there
was real charm in the rougelcsS,
enamel-like type of woman, these things
went by the board. Seriously you know
smart women have become very much
more sparing with their makeup. If you
have had your eyes open lately you must
have discovered that. Even the deml-
mondaine whom we used once to think we
could distinguish by her too lavish use OF
makeup, following close on the heels OF
the really smart woman, as she always
does, passes us on the street showing her
complexion as willingly as the debutante.
Things had really become too easy. we
were SPENDING altogether too little time
at our dressing table. Something had 70
be done So Dame Fashion gazed INTO her
mirror with fixed attention and DECIDED
that she had too much eyebrow. The
beauty doctor did the rest And 50 now If
YOU KEEP your eyes open you will see nun
dreds and hundreds of women whose
eyebrows have taken to themselves fairy
like proportions It may be that your own
have undergone this Transformation IL

simply depends in plucking out the super
fluous eyebrows. leaving neat little ridge

coming.
OF course there is nothing new in this
Chinese lalies until they abandoned their
bandaged feet went us one better. They
,pluclzed out their eyebrows entirely. Tney
would have none of them. And there are
some conservative ladies of the Celest'o'
Empire who still renounce their eyebrows
on their marriage. 1t is more decorous SO
to do.
In the fifteenth century fashionable
ladies of italy trimmed their eyebrows
as carefully as does the Lady Who
Would Be-Beautiful of today. And she
trimmed them as we do today. She mercy
plucked out the offending hairs ana
shaped the eyebrows as she would. Look
at the beauties made famous by the great
portrait painters of centuries gone oy.
There is Giovanni Tornabounf whose por-
trait by Ghirladajo is so much admired
today And Vainci's Belle Ferronie.e'

rather heavy ones. and SO did Penney ana

One wonders. Take another look at the

Modification of the Chinese Hat Has

Same Types of Faces
New York-Strangely enough, the tur-
ban and the English picture hat go mana
in hand this winter They are worn
by the same women, although not at the
same time, let it be quickly added.
1t is an extraordinary fact that some
women can wear many styles, while those
who are not clever at the art OF ar
ranging the hair, the neck and the nat
are continually lost in envy and admlra-

SCHENECTADY. n. Y, April "a
"JaclS the Clipper" is at large in
schenectady. Police headquarters has
received twice within fortnight COM
rIaints from women. of hair shipping,

The latest case occurred in a

yeaF-old girl was at. counter with
a chum when she felt a tug at her
braided hair. Drawing the braid
over her shoulder she saw a length Of
nearly six inches had been cut away.

The girl gave a good description Of

he had been drinking.
Several years ago there. were SINH

made, but the police set up such a
stringent watch that the clipper
