One of the quickest and most ef-
fective ways that we can think OF to
assist In relieving the so-caled NEWS
Print paper shortage, is for the dali
lv papers to cut out those large Sun
day editions and for them and tue
weeklies to cut out those enorm'uls
Trade and special editions. But
small percent of people ever read
such mass of printed stuff in til,
shape of newspapers. Let such OF
it that's worthy of enduring presen-
tation be dished up in either maya
zine or book form, the capacities for
paper on which both latter is not so
far strained We hope if the federal
government takes over the situation
that one of its first strokes of regu-
lating the distribution of NEWS
PRINT Paper will be at these points.
1t had to be done in Canada, if we
mistake not, during the war. The
Sunday papers were wholly suspend
ed in some countries during the war.
Maybe that would be too extreme a
measure, but they certainly can be
greatly cut down in size to the i'm
mediate saving OF an enormous
amount of paper. which should go to
help relieve the cry of shortage.

FIRST SALE YIELDED $4,000
National Tuberculosis Association,
Which Sponsors Sale. Will Place
65o,Oo0,ooo Seals on Sale to
Finance the Fight Against
q tuberculosis.

The Red Cross Seal-as millions or
Americans know 1t to day, is an agent
of happiness and health. 1t was orig
mated in 1907 by Miss Emily Z. Bissell,
of Wilmington, Delaware, who learned
through Jacob Riis of somewhat SINH
lar seals that were sold in Norway for
the purpose of raising funds with
which to fight tuberculosis.
Miss Bissel persuaded the Ameri-
can Red Cross to take up the idea with
the result that seals were sold In
limited number of communities In
1908. The sale yielded revenue of
approximately $1,000 The Red Cross
then decided to issue the seals each
year and to turn the proceeds over to
the National tuberculosis association
and its affiliated societies for the pur-
pose of financing the campaign against
tuberculosis. The number of seals
sold In America increased by leaps
and bounds until in 1917 the total
reached 1S0,000,000.
This year the seals are again on
sale beginning December 1. More
than half a billion seals have been
printed for distribution to state and
local agents. In addition to the
seals Health Bonds" in denomlna-
tons ranging from $500 to 500. 90
are to be sold in lieu of seals to
large contributors, who do not send
out a sufficient quantity of mail In
December to make use Of all the seals
they would like to purchase. The
combined quotas of all the state or
CARNATIONS call for more than $6,500,-
600 to carry out the intensive educa
tional campaign being conducted by
the National Tuberculosis Association
and its 200 afIlliated societies.
The intensive sale of these seals
represents practical demonstration
Of every lesson that has been learned
regarding scientific distribution. Ex-
perts of the highest standing in sales
management have co-operated to the
extent of assuring those interested
that every resident of the United
States will have an opportunity to buy
Rod Cross Christmas Seals.

Ii would be a capital scheme for
Greene County to use those army
trucks which she has and will fall
heir to from the War Department, -
to work at odd times in hauling
gravel to some of the worst places
on the roads. We understand there
is very good gravel bed near Nc
Lain and possibly others in the
county. This gravel is likely not up
to the approved" gravel which the
federal road bureau requires, but it
will answer for demonstrative pur-
poses and serve much better than
none until a regular policy of grav-
cling can be reached This is not
thrown out purely as suggestion.
The new board may have this in
mind with other plans for more pro
gressive and at the same time eco
nomical administration of road af-
fairs in conjunction with the road
commissioners IN the districts where
they have them So if that's the
case let them take it as an advance
endorsement of such experiment
along conservative economical lines
to discover the possibilities for grav-
cling our roads in time to come.
