Want Women to Knit Again

VIII the knitters Of Delaware who
knitted so well and so industriously
during The war take heed and listen
as they formerly did, to the call Of pa
triOtism, now TO the call of humanity ?
For the call that the knitting depart
ment is now sending out Is so urgent
and so appealing that if thoroughly un-
derstOOd VIII at once be recognized as
nothing less than an appeal directly
to the heart Of every woman who can
knit.
That the women Of Delaware can knit
has been so ably demonstrated during
the war times that it need not be re-
marked upon now. The appeal was so
strong when men were leaving every
day for the war, that only the needs
OF the Delaware Chapters allotment
had to be given TO the people Of Della
ware in the plainest figures and at once
the demands were met. Today If these
same women could see privatiOn and
suffering abroad, the lack Of clothing
for those who are trying to rebuild
their homes and to till the soil and
bring it back from its war torn, shat
tered condition, they would take up
their knitting needles and do every
thing in the world in their power to
help them.
The Red Cross is now called upon to
help through the knitting department.
It is the intention and desire Of the Red
Gross to send off large shipments of
knitted articles by September
10 so that before the cold winter sets
in, these articles may be distributed to
the refugees. TO the men and women.
and above all. the little chcildren. for
If these children are not protected
from the severe weather conditions
abroad by suitable clothing, they GER
tainly cannot live through the winter
that is to come.

A show must be almost OF super
quality to vie with the stunning and
spectacular saddle horse exhibitions
held nightly in the great live stock
pavilion Of the Kentucky State Fair
and in effecing this happy consumma-
ton the incest judgment, sense of spec
tacular values and practical knowledge
Is required.
With the possession of these assets
already demonstrated by Hippodrome
shows in 19I7-ls which we're notable
amusement affairs, Kentucky State
Fair Secretary Fount T. Kremer may
he relied on to equal or excel these
former showings and there is satisfac-
tory assurance in his announcement
that the 1919 roster OF attractions will
be the banner array of State Fair his
tory.
The outstanding feature of this great
pavilion entertainment will be the APP
pearance, for the first time in the
SOUTH of the magnificent musical or
gYnization known as the list Regi-
mental New York Guards Band with
Lieut.. Lambert l.. Eben as director.
This band figured in all the war ac-
tivities of the metropolis and is in
constant demand for victrola and pia-
no-player work. The organization is
made up of forty well-trained and ac-
complished musicians uniformed in
striking military array, and it boasts
soloists of high repute in the world of
music. Its leader, Lieut.. Eben, is a
picturesque figure, and is said to be
one of the most brilliant directors in
America. Their programs will be
made up of selections appealing to all
tastes.
OF the acts proper the most preten-
tious to be offered in the pavilion oval
will be the auto polo exhibition which
is second to none as an amusement
combining thrill, clamor, movement
and surprises. This game was intro
duced to State Fair visitors for the
first time last season and both in the
pavilion and on the race track II

$500 TO $1,000 with only one nights ex-
