The local chapter of the American Red Cross will start it's Roll Call week tomorrow by appropriate se1v- ices at 7:3O D. m. in the Methodist Episcopal Church. An excellent pro- gram has been arranged and is print ed in another column of this paper.
 The importance of this annual roll call in Seward is greater that any for several years for the reason that it lis necessary to greatly increase the membership of the local chapter in depreciation of the selection of Sew ard as the headquarters of the De lano nurse. The chapter is in sound financial condition but to show the proper endorsement of the work to be carried on under Miss Fuller it is ne cessary that every one in Seward be- come a member of the chapter by the payment of One Dollar as annual dues during the coming Roll Call week.
 1t is wrong to suppose the work of the Red Cross is war work and as such should be disregarded now to- gether with other war activities.

tises quick temper A cast or droop
in the eye cannot be trusted.
A wild expression of the eye, espe-
cially if the whole pupil be exposed, is
a sign of insanity.
Projecting, rolling eyes belong to
people who are not genuine.
Eyes deep sunk in the head are
those of a Jealous, distrustful, envious,
malicious nature.
Large eyes in a small face indicate
curiosity.
A shifting eye denotes dishonesty.
Soft, languid eyes show. a voluptu-
Gus nature.
Never make confidant of one who
keeps his eyes almost closed; half-shut
eyes show shrewdness and a lack of
sincerity.
a squinty eye is a penurious but
honest type.
Oblique eyes are cunning and de-
ceitful.
Eyes which have an inquisitive ex-
preston and then, when addressing a
person, an exceedingly kind express
sion, are not to be trusted.
If the right eye keeps twitching the
superstitious say that it means good
news; the left, misfortune. If both
twitch at the same time one will hear
from a long lost friend.

rected at point of shipment for each
of the 1894 cities and towns furnish
ing reports up to- December %, 1921.
while the good effect of the cam
paign cannot be measured in dollars
and cents" says the report, nor by
the number of irregularities corrected
before they could result in loss or
damage, the national interest attracted
to the Importance of starting ship
ments right-welI packed, in adequate
containers and correctly marked
amply repaid those who helped to
make the campaign a success.
LAS an illustration of the permanent
value of the movement, many local

and shippers kept currently informed

tons"

MESSAGE TO NEAR EAST RELIEF
Chief Justice Taft Expresses Hopes for
Campaign Success.

From the big heart of William How
ard Taft. former president of the
United States and now chief justice
of the United States supreme court,
comes this message to Near East Re
lief:
IT sincerely hope that your cam
paign for further contributions to Near
East Relief for the help of the poor
children who have had some little
aid, and who have been led to expect,
by past assistance, rescue and future
comfort, will be successful. I realize
that the country is more or less jaded
with constant call for contributions,
but the country still has abundant re-
sources and abundant wealth, and l
cannot think that the sacrificial spirit,
which developed SO much in the war,
and the sense of brotherhood of man,
have disappeared and cannot be
reused to the real necessities that
those devoted persons carrying on the
Near East Relief are eagerly trying
to supply"

KANSAS VS.. CALIFORNIA.

You may talk about your Poppies,
And your Poinsettia's grace,
And about your inspiration Point, Mt
Lowe;
am something of a rover,
have been about all over,
And I'd rather be in Kansas where the
Sunflowers grow.
You NAV talk about your beaches.
With their sand and fleas and Ieeches,
And the distant mountain points SO grand
But I'm blest If all your talking
Calls uD anything but mocking;
Kansas now! forever! Kansas always In
demand.
You may put your heads together
And talk big about the weather,
And the absence or the presence of the
snow;
Just go on-with all your blowing,
Down in Kansas where the balmy zephyrs
blow.
You may talk about the heather,
And it may be you mean me then.
When YOU think of where I'm going to go
Pray go on with all your talking,
Were no train, there would be walking,
And I'm going just as fast as l can go.
So what e'er you do or say then.
Just get down and humbly pray then.
That you may be worthy-worthy only but
once more,
To come back and hold communion
In n glorious reunion
In the land of sunny Kansas we adore.
Flora l. Godsey, Emporia, Kan.
