WE NEED NOT GO TO THE CITY.

With but 20 days remaining for us
to do our Christmas shopping we find
the Island stores blossoming out be-
decked with livelier gifts than have
ever before been offered.
Time was that It was necessary to
go to the city to do our gift buying,
but for the past several years 1t has
become more easy and satisfactory to
do our buying at home.
Nor need we depend entirely on the
stores for gifts to send fastidious
friends, for from our Island artist can
be purchased pictures that would
please the most exacting, with the
added value Of local color. Many of
Mr.. Edson's loyeliest pictures have
been tanen right here on the Island,
and each year he adds to his line.
Then this year, as always, there Is
the never-failing supply Of Natures
own gift, the lovely native greens, with
which our woods abound. Dwellers of
the east and middle west never cease
to marvel at the beauty of those
shrubs that furnish us so freely with
Christmas greens and that are ours
for the asking. Practically the only
cost for gifts Of this sort is that OF
postage, which is after all small
item.
In short, we Of Vashon Island have
fewer Christmas shopping woes than

RED CROSS ROLL CALL
CAMPAIGN EXTENDED


Because the volunteer workers have
been unable to cover the territory in
asking the people of Seattle and King
county to join in the humanitarian
cause, the Red Cross Rel Call has
been extended beyond Thanksgiving
Day. The announcement was made
today by i. F.. Dix, general chairman.
In making public the extension of
the Roll Call date, Mr. Dix said, 1.-THE
Red Cross is one agency that Is
necessity locally as we'll as nationally.
A community never knows when 1t
will need the aid of the Greatest
Mother in the World.
THE work that is done quietly day
by day at Red Cross headquarters, dis
pensing financial and other aid to dis
abled veterans and their families,
training in life saving and first aid,
giving medical and dental aid at the
Junior Red Cross clinic, transcribing
books into Braille for the use Of the
blind, is just as important as the dis
aster work and in order that this work
may 60 on next year we need the sup
port Of every citizen In King county.
Join the Red Cross Now"
Civic leaders endorsed the Roll Call,
asking that citizens make an effort to
participate and that each family
should have several memberships in
the worldwide organization.

Feed Shortage Due To
Present Severe Drought

CONTINUED from Page Seven)
ing purposes will help in meeting
the present emergency, the growing
of wheat as a feed Cor livestock can
not be considered as profitable
enterprise under normal conditions,
The only way to improve the wheat
price situation permanently is to
work definitely toward reduction of
the annual wheat production of the
United States.
"The Federal Farm Board is re-
ceiving many communications from
people throughout the wheat-grow-
ing section to the effect that the
American farmer is planning to
make a substantial reduction in the
acreage seeded to wheat this fall. 1t
seems rather certain this will be
done, not merely because this Board
has suggested such action, but for
the more convincing reason that
even low-cost producers can not
raise wheat profitably at present
prices.
"The movement toward wheat ac-
reage reduction is well under way.
The more thoughtful farmers al
ready have decided upon reduced
paintings this fall. The time is Op-
perfume for them to make their in
tentions known to the world. This
they can do by communicating with
the manager and directors of the CO.
operative associations or general
farm organizations with which they
are affiliated. During the next few
weeks farm organizations can pro-
fitably give the discussion of wheat
acreage adjustment an important
place on their program.
IF these things are done, in our
Judgment they will have a very ma
terial influence in bringing about
substantial improvement in wheat
prices, thus getting for the farmer,
in the price he receives for his 1880
crop, some of the advantages that
should accrue to him through the
reduced production in 1881. With
such action on the part of the farm
organizations, coupled with an eX-
tensive wheat feeding program and
slowing down in the wheat move
ment to market, there is no ques-
tion but that the effect on the mar
ket would be very beneficial"

Yearly | become more and more
impressed with the high incidence
of pulmonary tuberculosis in the
young women from sixteen to thirty
years of age.
am interested in the genera
opinion of the medical profession
that this. in contrast to the proper
tfonately low rate in man, is due to
a dietary factor, for this opinion is
doubtless all too often true. Bu'
within my own experience there Is
another equally important factor.
Pulmonary tuberculosis occurs
relatively frequently in that group
Of young women whom either ne
cessity or ambition has driven to
work and study Gncombination) at
an early age. 1t occurs when the
adOlescent has taken on too heavy
a load too early in development ana
carried on too long. We see it in
colleges and universities and among
other groups of students.
The technique for preventing such
q frequent accident as pulmonary
tuberculosis in the adolescent girl is
relatively simple. In addition to
voiding direct exposure to tubercu-
losis, / would recommend that any
young woman who plans to under
take heavy possibilities such as
study and partial self-suppOrt, be
thoroughly examined by her own
doctor before she starts; and at
yearly intervals; and in addition
that she confer with her doctor as
occasion may dictate. This means
having a doctor in the town where
she is studying. and the sort of doe
tor who will take sufficient time to
acduaint the patient with her condi-
ton; make what recommendations
he has for immediate correction OF
defects; and explain the advantages
of certain practices with the idea
that the girl will be stimulated to
aspire to a lifelong period of effec-
tiveness through her knowledge of
her own organic capacity and
through motivated health habits
that bring about and maintain her
at her best.
1 would stress three health habits
all too generally neglected by stu
dents wholly or partly paying their
own expenses:
I'd The Importance of sufficient
steep and rest under proper cOndi-
tions, emphasizing the advantages of
good ventilation and satisfactory
sleeping conditions;
(2) A fundamentally complete
and we'll rounded diet, because the
scientific application of the princi-
pies of our newer knowledge of nu-
triton is capable of doing as much
for medicine as asepsis has done for
surgery;
90 The significance of suitable
exercise and recreation in growth,
development and well being.
If a girl in order to go to school
has to work her way, at least part
ly, and cannot carry the double load
and at the same time get time for
adequate sleep and exercise and
money for adequate food and doc
tors supervision she would better
choose another career. No college
degree that involves slow suicide or
even broken health is worth the
price it costs.
