COAL MEN WARNED.

The coal question as it has doomed up
this fall is about as serious as any the
American people have had to face for
century of time. Is there any other
reason for this than the braZen greed
of those who aim to accumulate great
wealth in a short time, the inefficiency
of railroads through devilish manage
ment for purpose, and the lack of de-
sire on the part of miners to work more
than about half time, and that, too, at
demand of wage practically sufficient
for full time? With all these unrea-
sonable, unchristianized angles in the
coal business and with the greed of the
useless, meddesome middlemen added
thereto, is it any wonder the people
are shivering and suffering.
Thanks be. there's ray Of hope for
relief through the steps of two fellow

THE RED CROSS

am sorry to hear that some refused
to give to such noble cause. They
say what is the use now that the war
is over Has the war returned our
boys back in perfect health ? Far from
it,; there are many blinded Comrades
who are being helped by this grand
order to learn trade that they may
earn an honest living without begging
from door to door. What about the
army of occupation comprising H.
600 officers and men. These must be
cared for.
We are beginning to learn the lesson
of preparedness. Before the war we
were not prepared to take care of our
own suffering in cyclone and flooded
districts as we should; if such should
visit our town are we ready TO take
care of the suffering? Let us be pre-
pared to help wherever necessary.
Last year 100000 American babies
died before they were "A year old The
slaughter of such innocents is largely
due to the ignorance and Indifference
among the un!earned. Our nurses are
being sent among such people to teach
them how to take care of their suffer
ing until physician can be had Such
Red Cross Nurses are playing a very
important part all over the world.
More could be done if we had the nurses.
There is cry for 1000 more to take
up this noble work for the public health
of America.
There are many more things which
could be said of this noble order. Our
boys who called on you could tell you
more through experience. How can
you refuse those boys HON you gave
such praise before leaving your own
town for the battlefield. Now they
are home to be refused by you. Think
it over my friends. You do not know
how much good your dollar will do.
The roll call is on. Is your name
written there?

BRINGING OF OUR SOLDIER DEAD.

One of the service men still in action
who has for his duty the bringing home
of our soldier dead, has a strange tale
to tell of conspiracy Of steamship
companies, railways, and undertakers,
to have widows and friends of the
soldiers who died in France bring back
the bodies; the sole excuse for this we'll
managed propaganda being the fat re-
turns that come from the United States
treasury for this service. This officer
tells of one instance in which he took
body down South, and calling at the
home of the alleged widow, telling her
that her husband body at the depot.
She replied with a laugh that he was
in the kitchen, meaning that she had
remarked. She told the soldier be
could do what he pleased with the body,
she had no interest In it. In another
instance, the body was brought to the
home town, and the lady who should
have been there to tearfully receive it

with not near relative to show any
interest. The whole advantage in these
cases lay with the promoters and
the carriers.
If this systematic playing with SEN

this soldier seems 10 think it is, then
immediate investigation should be in

HaltOn Jones was a New Yorker
porn and bred. A little of the city
dweller's assurance crept into his voice
while his arm found it's way around
Ruth's slender waist. "You do love me,
don't you, Ruth?"
"Yes," replied Ruth Redfield, trem-
blfngly but confidently.
So they settled their future under
the maple trees by the spring, with an
August moon looking down. And the
transforming light of that heavenly
body slurred kindly over the crude and
lovely aspects of the little New Eng
land farm, emphasizing the inherent
beauty of the scene. To Ruth that
moonglow typified Halls love for her.
which, shining down the pathway of
life, would transfigure every sordid de-
tail.
The next day Hal's vacation visit in
the vicinity came to an end and he re-
turned to the city. "Pm going to plug
hard and make good, Ruth, and just as
soon as / can save enough so we can
start in right we will be married"
Ruth, wonderfully happy, acqui-
esced. She wanted time to dream over
this new element in her life and there
would be so many things for her clever
Yankee fingers to work on as she
dreamed! Things for herself and the
new home in the big city.
Mrs. Redfield took the news calmly ;
life had taught her the futility of TAX
ing any news otherwise. "You tell
joe" Ruth requested. not meeting her
mothers eye. And Mrs. Redfield did
that evening after Ruth had gone to
her room. Joe Hodges sat across the
table plunged in study, for he attended
a nearby agricultural school, doing the
rough work on the Redfield farm for
his board.
Mrs. Redfield didn't raise her eyes
from the rags she was sewing, nor did
she reply to the boys choking, "Im
glad for her" But after a while she
walked around the table and put her
