care about the show, but the boy
wanted to come" Oh, no, he did
not care about the show. Children

Mississippi received deserv-

Southern states to eradicate the
cattle tick. When tick free Miss

Blboded cattle brought into q

MRS. Ira Shields Publicity
Chairman

SAAsSAAAA
The American Red Cross is un-
dertaking to send ten thousand
tons of cast of clothing to- the
helpless war sufferers of thu al
lied countries. and both sexes will
be accepted, but since the clothes
are to be worn by working pesple,
strong durable cloth should be
given. They need not, however, be
in perfect condition for there are
thousands of destitute women in
the recovered territory eager to
earn small livelihood by re-
pairing the clothing that will be
sent to the needy. In addition to
the secondhand garments there
will be accepted piece goods,
light, warm canton flannel and
other fabrics from which to make
clothes for newborn babies,
sheeting and blankets and even
scrap leather which is needed for
repairing shoes. Woolen goods
of any kind, soft hats and caps
for all ages and sweaters Of any
kind or size will be welcomed,
while mems shirts and pajamas
that are not longer serviceable as
such can be turned into children's
garments.
Please have all washable garm-
ents thoroughly clean.
Chairmen of Branches will ap-
point committees to solicit and
collect garments also instruct
their auxiliaries to do the same.
Chairmen of Womens work will
appoint committees to receive
and ship all collections to Mrs.
S. L. McLaurin's Chapter chair
of Womans Work. Begin work at
once and continue until April the
first.
Very Important-List of Articles
Which Must not be Sent.
Many kind Of garments, and
many other personal belongings
ARE utterly useless for reiief pur-
poses, and should not be included
in any parcel, particularly such
articles as high hats, ball dresses,
shoe trees, collars, etc. are use
less and wasteful because:
(1) 1t increases the cost of
handling, as such articles have to
be picked out at the central col
lection point.
(2) It causes useless expendi-
ture of money for freight on ar
ticles which cannot be sent a.
broad.
The Red Cross is paying the
freight. and chapter workers
should be certain that every cent
paid the Railroads is helping to
forward some useful article to
the striken countries of Europe.
Strict attention has never been
paid to the articles which should
not be sent, as in the September
campaign we received many arti-
cles which we plainly asked chap
ters not to send in.
Do not send Ball dresses, flimsy
dressls, high hats, straw hats,
derby hats, trimmings for hats,
umbrellas, mattresses, clocks,
glasswear, carpets, toys, collars,
neckties, shoe trees, crutches,
canes, parasols, pillows, crock
cry. and rugs. No foodstuffs.

viii Meet TONIGHT

Seven applications forlmembership
will be received at tonight's meeting
of local, 502, Retail Clerks Interna-
tional Protective Association, in the
Fleming Building.
The local has membership of $50
and all of the chief stores of the city
have their employees affiliated with
the exception OF one and hopes are
entertained of securing that one also.
The union carries sick and death
benefit feature, which is not the case
with many labor organizations.
Store closing at p. M, is rather
general except in grocery stores and
meat markets and it is advisable that
they close at 6 p. m., because some of
the store folks must purchase before
going to their home. Effort will be
made to secure the employees of the
newsstands and stationery houses.

other points because of labor trou-
BILE. Coal will be shipped by permit
according to announcement made by

tration. These embargoes practically
have no bearing here as all steel coal
goes east.
Some Of the Ohio coal companies
have struck out of sympathy for the
steel strikers, but as a whole the coal
industry workers are taking no active
part at this time.
Reports current here are to the ef-
feet that a number Of steel compan-
les in the Pittsburgh section are SELL
ing the coal at the mines they own to
coal dealers, who are using the sup
ply to fill orders. There is an inclina-
ton here to fill orders other than steel
companies, which have accumulated
in case eastern steel plants are al
fected and cannot use the coal.
