MORE THAN 5000, 900 WAR
GARDENS LAST SUMMER

WashInEton-The nearest territory
to the fighting where food could be
produced in quantity was North Am
erica. Ordinarily, we have surplus
food. But 1917 found us without a
surplus, so inadequate had been our
harvest and so great the foreign de-
mand. There were considerably more
than 100000 war gardens last sum-
mer. The value of the food produced
by them is estimated for the season
at some $525, 100000. The number
of quart jars of canned vegetab bles
and fruits put up is estimated al
about 1,450, 200, 900.

SOCIETY.

Society Is a mysterious and de-
lightful pastime, in which everyone
is interested and of which very few
approve. 1t consists of clothes, man.
ners and press notices in equal pro-
portions. The mixing of these three
with an unlimited amount of money
is supposed to produce happiness IN
unalloyed chunks.
AS a matter of fact, it does not
often do this. But it produces envy
in the onlookers, which, as every
one knows, is just as good as happi-
ness.
Society is a continual battle be-
tween those who are out and are
trying to get in and those who are in
and are trying to keep the rest Of
the world out. More money is spent
in social battles than Is spent in real
war, and the effect on the men in
both eases is equally distressing.
Getting into society is a difficult
and dangerous performance. Some
people get in up to their necks and
some entirely over their heads.
Learning to float on the social wave
Is n of the most difficult arts. The
floater nearly always has to throw
away his or her heart to tighten the
cargo, and sometimes the stomach
and brain go overheard, too.
The object of society is to be merry
and gay in the society columns of
the newspapers. Society is a COOP
e4ative affair in which every member
is supposed to contribute to the
amusement of the rest. Some con-
tribute money and food, while others
contribute good looks, and still 9th
ers contribute ancestors. Fine new
gowns and rare old ancestors are
always at war in society, and at pres
ent the gowns seem to have the an
cestors on the run, owing to the
growing scarcity of the latter.
Contrary to the general lmnres-

FIRST SALE YIELDED $4,000
National tuberculosis Association,
Which Sponsors Sale, Will Place
$50, ooo,o 900 Seals on Sale to
Finance the Fight Against
tuberculosis.

The Red Cross Seal-as millions OF
Americans know it to day, is an agent
of happiness aud health. 1t was orig
mated in 1907 by Miss Emily P. 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 Bissell persuaded the Ameri-
can Red Cross to take up the idea with
fhe result that seals were sold in a
limited number of communities in
1908. The sale yielded a revenue of
approximately $4,000. 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 1SO,OOO.000.
This year the seals are again on
sale beginning December /. More
than half a billion seals have been
printed for distribution to state and
local agents. In addition to the
seals Health Bonds in denOmina-
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 1000 affiliated societies.
The intensive sale of these seals
represents a practical demonstration
of every lesson that has been learned
regarding scientific distribution. Elk
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
Red Cross Christmas Seals.
