SHORT PARIS SKIRTS
TABOED IN ATLANTA
Gowns Brought Back by Returning
Soldiers Do Not Please Their
Wives and SMeethearts,
No Indeed.

Atlanta, June 3.-Army wives whose
husbands are returning from France
to Atlanta are viewing with much dis
tress the exquisite Parisien gowns
that some Of them are gringing Home
as gifts to their Iadyships Sad to
relate, the dresses are lovely in every
particular except when it comes to
length, for Atlantans have not yet
reached the point where they can don
skirts almost to their knees.
The soldier husbands too are doubt
full of the propriety of their gifts
since seeing the customs removed
from their French setting, for Atlanta
women are showing their preference
for American fashions by wearing
skirts to their ankles while Paris is
insisting on skirts reaching only q
fraction or SO below the bnees.
Another humorous phase Of the
gifts brought by returning husbands
is the proud manner in which over
seas daddies are presenting baruffled

HOW 10 REiNsTATE
GOVERNMENT INSURANCE

Mr.. w. Z. Owen, home service sec.
rotary, Coyington chapter, American
Red Cross, who has offices in the
Supply Co. building, makes the fol.
lowing statement in regard to the
government war-risk insurance.:
The Red Cross has been asked Ia
encourage every discharged soldier
to retain his government insurance
and particularly to assist those who
have allowed their insurance to lapse
but now desire to reinstate them
selves. The government deduCts the
insurance premium for the month
preceding the discharge of the sol
der, but afterwards it is incumbent
upon the soldier to remit his monthly
premium. For instance, a soldier
discharged March 5, 1919, has had his
premium deducted from his pay TO
cover the month of February, but
he owes and should remit to the dis
bursting clerk, bureau of war risk
insurance, Washington, the amount
Of his monthly premium for March,
1919.
a soldier who allows bis insurance
to lapse by reason Of non-payment Of
premiums after discharged may rein
state himself by paying the back
premiums, if such payments are
made within two months from ex-
piration Of calendar months in which
the premium was payable. For ex-
'ample, the soldier discharged March
3 had the whole Of the calendar month
Of March to pay his premium for
that month; and thus under the above
regulation, has two extra months,
April and May, during which he
might have reinstated himself by
merely paying the premiums up to
date. If the application is made
subsequent to two calendar months
but before the expiration Of five cal
endar months from the expiration of
the calendar months in which pre-
MUM was payable, then insurance
may be reinstated by payment of
back premiums, accompanied by
certificate from reputable doctor
that the solier is in as good physical
condition as he was at the time of his
discharge. Thus, by securing such
a certificate, the solier discharged
March 5, 1919, can by production of
such certificate, reinstate his in
surance as late as the last day of
July, 1919.
Nearly every soldier applied for
$4,000 insurance, and it is believed
that many drop their insurance be-
cause $4,000 is more than they be-
lieye they can carry, not realizing
that they may drop any part of it. For
instance, a soldier rs years of age,
who has been paying $500 per month
for $4,000, may drop $4,000 and
carry $1,000, which would cost him
only 66 cents per month. In order
to drop a proportionate part, it is
necessary that the soldier write the
bureau to that effect, sign the let
ter and have his signature witnessed
by two persons, pay back premiums
on the amount of his former policy,
but from then on he will pay pre-

'Take-AnD, a New Disease Of
Wheat

''Take-Allp, a New Disease Of
Wheat
A new disease Of wheat known as
.'take-all" has been discovered in Illi-
nois and Indiana, and it is feared
chat it has been brought into Tonnes
see in seed wheat. Take-all threatens
to prevent the growing Of wheat in
sections where it has appeared.
The appearance of Take-all varies
considerably in different fields accord
ing to severity Of attacks. In some
fields distinct patches vaiying in size
occur in which the diseased plants are
greatly dwarfed, remaining in the
rosette stage, spreading punched,
while surrounding plants develop
about normally. Such plants show a
distinct bluish-green color in contrast
to the normal green Of healthy plants.
These diseased patches vary in size
aud outline. In some fields where
the infection has become general,
scarcely any patches are evident.
Many dwarfed plants are entirely
killed and dried up and brown, leav-
ing bare patches in the field. Some
Of the dwarfed plants have rather
wide rosette leaves. Some diseased
plants if not entirely dead shoot up
number of supplementary sprouts
in an effort at recovery. These
plants are very weak and their leaves
are narrow and grass-like. The char
acteristics Of this dwarfed rosette
stag are very striking.

FARMER Pntman on Silos

"a silo is hole, entirely surround
ed by a wall, fur STORM COW feed.
Sometimes the hole is in the ground;
sometimes. it is up in the air. To
build silo first select a nice spot
fur the hole, then build a. wall out
side of the hole, if you want 10
build up, or inside of the hole, if you
want pit silo. Either kind is good,
but you got to go about it different.
If you CANT put up silo, put one

miums only on the amount Of insur-
ance he retains.
AT later date an opportunity viii
be given To convert the insurance
into various endowment and 20-vear
payment policies, without any medi-
cal examination, but the insurance
may be retained at the present low
rate for period Of five years from
declaration Of peace. The present
policy covers not only death, but to-
tai permanent disability.
Several discharged soldiers in this
county have already died; one died
within a month of his discharge, his
insurance was in effect, and his heirs
will secure $4,000. Another soldier
paid his insurance for two months
after discharged, then allowed it to
lapse, and died within few weeks
thereafter. His family will be unpro-
vided for.
Among the reasOSs that may be
advanced why men should keep their
government insurance are: az The
families are kept continually protect
ed; ~ men are enabled to save
money methodically, and habits Of
thrift are thus inculcated; CD the
insured have an opportunity to pre-
vide for their old age by means Of
endowment policies; az government
insurance is the cheapest, costing ap-
prOximately half as much as private
companies, for all overhead expense
is borne by the government; (5) the
insurance is free from taxation; (6)
it is free from claims Of creditors;
Cd it is the safest in the world, as
the entire resources of the govern
ment are behind it.
Any further information or as
sistance in reinstating insurance will
be gladly given by Mr.. Owen.

Forty one dioceses are completely
organized for tie nationwide cam
paign, and chsirmen have been ap-
pointed b the bishops af % ether
dioceses. Additions to this list are
being made daily, according to a
statement by Dr. Patton in which
he says:
"The purpose Of the nationwide
campaign is to deepen and quicken
the spiritual life Of the whole church,
and to place before the church such
program Of its work as will ade-
quately present the needs Of the pres
ent critical situation and call forth
from the whole church a response
commensurate with those needs. TO
accomplish in an effective and accu-
rate way these ends every general
board, provincial, diocesan and parO-
chial agency win be asked 10 submit
full surveys Of its present condition
its needs and its contemplated plans
to meet the new situation following
the war"
DR.. Patton lays emphasis on the
point that the nationwide campaign
Of the Episcopal church il in no way
merely a "drive" for 50 much money.
Large increases in gifts for the
parish, for the diocese and for gen.
Aral missions have indeed resulted
from previous campaigns operated on
smaller scale. In many cases there
have been remarkable financial re-
suits. But / am certain that in every
case the clergy and the laity would
say that the chief gain was spiritual
and educational"
The nationwide campaign seeks to
apply the resources of the Episcopal
CHURCH to the after-the-war problems,
immigration, the rural church and
especially to the search for a substi-
tute for the saloon in those sections
of the country which haYe not al
ready found their own substitutes
because they have been forced to do
50. Seventy-seven bishops of the
church have promised their coop
Grafton in a campaign which has
these objects.
The program Of the conference
calls for an explanation Of the con-
ception and purpose Of the cam
paign by Bishop Mikell statement
regarding the survey upon which the
campaign is based, by Mr.. Gibson;
and other statements by Bishop Fred
erick Focke Reese, of Georgia, and
Mrs. G. L. Pettigrew, of Atlanta,
president of the diocesan branch Of
the Woman's Auxiliary.

Good Cherry Pie

When making cherry pie, fit a
crust into a pan and brush over with
unbeate8awhite Of egg. Let this dry,
then put in the filling. The cherries
can be put into the pie raw, or cooked
first. IF cherries are very tart it
is good plan to cook them in straw
berry juice, or any mild juice you
have on hand. If no juice is avail
able, cook in syrup until tender.
Sweeten them at this time. After
cooling they can be placed in the
crust and as much added as needed.
It is also a good plan to thicken this
juice slightly with corn starch Of
flour. Care must be taken, however,
not to use too much thickening. One
level tablespoon Of corn starch to
cups Of juice is plenty. It is best ia
use this pie at least one hour after
baking, as it win become soggy II
It stands too long.
