ARMY WIVES

New York, April 24.-Army women
are stepping into the breach to boil
ster up their husbands incomes. The
wives Of many officers, especially
those stationed in or near New York,
are working as salesladies, stenog-
raphers and in similar occupations to
get sufficient money to pay the fam
lily expenses.
An officer who has been in Wash
ington in the interests of a pay in
crease showed letters from other Of
GERS illustrative of conditions in the
service today, that told of many ex-
pedients resorted to for the sake OF
the family income, ranging from the
wife Of a captain who is making a
success in literature to a second lieu
tenant who lives in a tenement and
oes h family laundry work after
Office hours in order to spare his wife,
who is too frail to do more than
cook. wash dishes, sew and clean
house.
One missive from a captain de-
scribes the dwindling Of his savings
in moving about the. country under
the accumulation of debts and the
death of his baby daughter. q q
He summarizes his letter as fol-
lows:
~ am in debt to my family and my
wife's family for money furnished
to enable me to obey orders. This in
addition to Doctors bills still unpaid.
II have bought no clothing for
myself since December, 1918, except
n pair of quartermaster shoes. de-
spite the fact that my uniforms are
almost in rags. When they do give
out I can see nothing but further
CebtS in order to cf0fhe myself. +,
IT have bought no clothes for my
wife since last June. She had to
wear summer clothes in winter in
New York until she obtained employ
ment as at Gleslady over the Christ
mas holidays.
The officer who, gave out this in
formation stated that $500 resigna-
lions had been accepted and about
400 more yer under consideration.

KEEP CLEAN
BY HOnora Costlgan.

Dodge disease germs" should be
the slogan Of one who wishes to keep
we'll.
The dangers of infectious diseases,
the immediate suffering and often
times the long train OF a~fter-efrects,
such As weakened Eyes, pus forma--
tions in the ears, disease of the kid
neys and other serious disasters to
health, bring home to each Of us the
value of knowing how to prevent dis
ease germs from entering the body
and how to keep well.
Measles, scarlet fever, pneumonia,
tuberculosis and other communicable
diseases with which we are all OF us
familiar are spread by germs. The
germ is the seed OF the disease,
which. if it finds root in the body,
multiplies and causes illness.
When this seed or germ is present
in the body Of one person nm such
multitude as to cause disease it Is not
difficult for it to be transferred to
both the sick and the well person
exercise great are. Germs are to
be found in the excretions of persons
suffering from these diseases and also
in the mouth-spray or spittle.
These germs may be carried to the
body Of a healthy person by means.
Of utepsils touched by. the sick. BY
disease germs are the hands. Food,
milk water, towels, clothes and
handkerchief gan be boiled to Kill
the germs but the hands cannot be
cleaned SO easily, and their warmth
enables germs to remain alive longer

chafed at the academic bonds and she

that, but clients came to her and she

In an interesting article Women

business women by Julia Soaring

for March Miss Viva HERMAN of this
city is prominently featured Miss
Leaycraft says: viva HERMAN, of
Pensacola, Florida, has learned to
capitalize the natural opportunities Of
her own home town. She started by
opening a small novelty store TO at

sold so well that she developed her
business to include blouses and other
articles Of clothing to replenish trav-
eler's wardrobes. and has expanded
her business to include stores in two
other resort towns
In the course of this interesting
article about American business wom-
en- is found the following:
There have been many and varied
reasons that has started on business

HATCH THEM EARLY

Chickens can be hatChed at any
time of the year, but ii is the chickens
hatched early in the spring that give
the best results One reason is that
if no special effort is made to hatch
early on the farms throughout the
country the Matching season comedies
too closely with the planting season
and Matching operations are reduced
on that account
Early hatched chicks. as a rule, are
the strongest and most vigorous in the
flock because they are produced from
eggs laid while the hens are in their
best breeding condition.
The early chicks develop to stage
where they can withstand extreme heat
and an attack by the parasites which
are numerous and troublesome in hot
weather The severe heat is apt to
check the growth OF the late chicks
and in their weakened condition they
easily become prey to lice and mites

is also used for heating both in the

Both the hot-air and the Iot-wateI

1t takes about as much time to care

least 150-egg capacity. although spe-

the small machine valuable A small
machine is often used in connection
with larger one, placing all the eggs
in the large machine after the first

400-egg capacity are commonly used
on those large farms which use indi.
