RED CROSS AUCTION SALE

The auction sale ct the courthouse
last Saturday afternoon, which was
given exclusively by the progressive
citizens of the Holiday community
for the benefit of the public health
nurse fund now being raised by the
local chapter of the American Red
Cross, was a success from every
viewpoint, the total. proceeds Of the
sale being SITS.
Many yards of the courthouse wall
fence was covered with baskets OF
seasonable and palatable vegetables,
grapes, etc., together with coops of
fine chickens, all of which had been
given absolutely free for the cause
Of good health and progress. A fine
thoroughbred Holstein bull, donated
by r. H. White of the Milfred Stock
Farm was also sold under the ham,
mer, bringing something over fifty
dollars to the fund. One pair of tho
roughbred Barred Plymouth Rock
chickens, donated by J. w. Gillem
brought an aggregate price of $50.
The purchasers Of this fine pair Of
fowls turned them back to the Red
Cross to be re-sold and in this way
the record was broken and the ex-
chequer sweiled to this munifcent
sum. I1s G Bt 9
In inaugurating and furnishing this
sale the progressive people of Holla-
day community have set precedent
that every community IN the county
might we'll profit by and follow with
only good results to themselves and
Ito their fellow countians. II we had
twenty communities that did things
like Holladay community, we would
lead the state OF Tennessee, yes, the
whole United States in worth while
work.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE;
WHY WE NEED HER.

Without health our community can
hope for no progress either indus
trially or commercially, while our
experience shows us that when ILL.,
ness is present among our people
our social life also seems to be lost
Our chools are closed nom epidem-
les; our stores fail to keep up their
regular amount of business and our
people are hopeless and discouraged.
Fortunately we are learning that
illness is nat visited on us by the
hand Of Providence; much of it can
be prevented and much of it can be
converted into health if we just know
how to do it. We have many excel
lent health laws in our state and we
also have health boards and health
officers who do their duty as they
see ii, and di it well. But to attain
community health we must have some
thing always present in our midst
which will keep US constantly re-
minded of the necessary precautions
which we should take to secure
health and to keep it once it is Sc
cured.
The spoken word, the personal.
message is the most powerful infiu-
ence in the world; this has been
proven throughout the ages, and at
least we re arriving at time when
we may, II we will, have the person
al message on health spoken to our
families, our children and ourselves
daily or even hourly as the need aris-
es. The medium by which this mes
sage is carried is the Public Health
Nurse, The war has. siiowh us by
the condition of our young men, that
the time has come when we must do
something to improve the health orl
our people. That 80 per cent, OF our
boys were rejected as physically un-
fit for military service means that the |
health of the American youth has
been neglected. Boys from the coun-
try showed bad health In nearly as
great measure as those from the
cities; only per cent. more country
boys were healthy than city 4, boys,
and from this fact we learned the
acute need for improving he health
of our people.
For five years before the war the
Red Cross had established nursing
service for small towns and rural
this service is now be-
ing extended into every part Of the
country where nurses are not already
serving the needed numbers. We must
have such q nurse here; she Is q
general leading an army TO life ana
health by the force of her own know
ledge and the value OF her own ex-
perienoe.
Useless loss OF life Is one of the
saddest phases OF civilization; we
are taught to conserve our crops and
bur cattle, but often we neglect our
children. The proof Of this is that
every year 100 900 babies die who
might have lived II parents had un-
ierstood how to care for them.
,Epidemics visit us from time to
time; accidents, emergencies, and
cause countless deaths;
many Of these may be prevented and
WILL be prevented I good public
health nurse is heard and needed.
This is meant only to make peo-
pie think on this subjee-; next week
another article will tell more in de-
tail of the work OF q Public Health
Nurse. In the meantime let us look
around our own neighborhood, glance

Menu for Tomorrow

 BREAKFAST .- Halves of grape fruit, buttered toast, coffee. LUNCHEON - Bran bread sand wiches, shrimp salad, drop nut cock. ies, iced tea.
 DINNER - Cold boiled hame, po- tato salad, nodded asparagus cream. Parker House rolls, strawberry short cake, coffee.
 My Down Recipes
 The man working out doors all day long will not find such a break fast as fruit, toast and coffee quite satisfying enough. But the man who spends his days in an office is healthier and happier when he eats light breakfast. Half of grape fruit contains a goodly amount of food.
 Instead of serving cream with the shortcake try adding hard sauce 10 the crushed berries. It takes more berries but it is .awfullE good for a change.

Physician Wins Point
I'm Liquor Permit Fight

Charles r O'Connor, in charge of the
permit department of the Federal pro
hibition enforcement office in New
York, was ordered yesterday by Federal
Judge John C. Knox to show cause
why he should not issue more than 100
permit blanks for use by DR.. Melville
A Hays, of 124 Audubon Avenue, Man
haitian.
In his petition, filed by Thomas F.
Anklin, DR.. Hays alleges that, when
the Volstead act took effect, he OBJ
tanned a book of 100 blanks from Mr..
O'Connor's office and had used all of
them in prescribing. alcoholic stimu-
lants for patients by May "a, when he
applied for another book, but was re-
fused. O'Connor, according to the COM
plaint, informed the physician that
under the Volstead act only 100 of
these blanks could be used by ply
sicians every ninety days The com
plaint alleg>~ that alcohol is neces-
sary stimula-N in such cases as bron-
chitis, influenza and nervous debility.

High Food Prices Laid
To Distribution System
Markets Commissioners Says
Only Remedy for Condition
Is Terminal Markets

The news that farmers were selling
potatoes at Sc barre. ard consumers
were paying $40, proves that distribu-
ton costs as much as production, and
that New Yorks food is cheap and ex-
pensive at the same time, Edwin j..
OMalley, Commissioner Of Markets, said
yesterday.
Fresh produce prices ought to be way
down, he said, but they aren't, because
the residents of the worlds largest city
are victims of an absurd condition of
distribution.
Peaches dropped from 20 to 10 cents
quart wholesale. The retail price was
20 cents. permitting 100 per cent profit;
2-cent wholesale cabbage retaied at s.,
5-cent peas at 1919, Scent lettuce at
1917 scent radishes al 8 cents.
This doesn't always mean that the
retailer is a protiteer," O'Malley ex-
planned. -Four or five spectators get
theirs before him. But those who do buy
direct from the farmer usually charge
all they can get to maintain the highest
price level possible.
THE city is helpless to aid the public
until we have city and state laws and
terminal markets We also need Fed
eral laws regulating food coming from
other states. Often stuff is sold four
times before it leaves the piers"

Rumanian Queen Thanks
Americans for Help

An autographed letter from Queen
Marie of Rumania was yesterday deliv-
cred by courier to Felix NJ Warburg.
expressing her majesty's gratitude for
the aid afforded both Jewish and nom
Jewish residents of her country by the
joint distribution committee of the
American Funds for Jewish War Suf-
ferers, of which MIR. Warburg is chair
man.
The letter was brought by Oscar
Leonard, of St. Louis. until recently in
charge of the committees work in
Bucharest. 1t follows:
Il take the opportunity of Mr.. Oscar
Leonard's return to the United States
after his service in Rumania for your
committee to say that the work done
by the joint distribution committee has
been extremely beneficial to the Jew
ish population. | also know that your
committee has rendered much service
to other than Jews in my country.
I hope the good work will be continued
by your committee as long as it is nee
essary l know of your plans of re-
building thousands of homes in Buco-
vino and elsewhere and of your plans
Of rehabilita alton, all of which l not
only approve, but admire.
Il wish to ask you to convey to the
Jewish people in the United States that
| am ready in the future also to help
them in this good work, just as
worked in the past and during the war
when there were no special committees
at which time we helped the entire
population, irrespective of religious af-
filiation.
81 wish to assure your people in
America of my sincere appreciation
and heartfelt sympathy
MARIE"
