is saved annually through the re-

in an appeal Tuesday to the people

Much of the waste paper used also
is turned into news print paper. and

Ten Million Face Starvation
As Result Of Supplies
Seizure.

(washington Herald d-Cross-AtIantic
Service. Special Cable Dispatch)
London, April 2. - A new food
crisis faces Austria. Six million of
the nations 100000 people are
menaced with a total lack of food
during the ensuing month, unless
immediate aid is forthcoming. The
situation. which Is causing gravest
concern in allied and neutral cabi-
nets, has resulted in consideration
of emergency measures to forestall
political complications.
This information was given today
by Sir William Goode, British di-
rector of relief for Central Europe,
who has returned from important
conferences at Copenhagen with
representatives of neutral relief de-
partments.
The situation has been precipitat-
ed largely by the Kapp revolution
ary effort in Germany, during which
some 10000 tons of foodstuffs en-
route to Vienna by the Rhine and
Elba were diverted. 1t now seems
improbable that more than 5000
tons of this expected shipment will
arrive.

When Louisville first
heard of matches

In the early thirties of the Ninteenth
century a lady of Louisville wrote to
her cousin in New York:
when | was in Richmond last winter
was told of curious new device for making
fire. 1t consisted of small splinters of wood
with tips of some substance that burst into
flame when rubbed on a rough surface If
you can procure some of them for me, |
shall be grateful"
1t was many years after matches were
generally made in Europe before they
were seen throughout America. There
was no means for spreading rapidly
such wonderful news.
Today the new invention that con-
. tributes largely to comfort or conven-
fence is quickly known in every section
of the land Advertisements bring the
story The farmers wife of Idaho or
Texas is quite as we'll posted as the
city woman of the East.
Read the advertisements in your
newspaper. They are the heralds of
progress, the great news spreading
force of modern industry They con-
tain real news for you. They save you
time and lessen your work and enable
you to obtain better value for the money
you spend.
