The wheels go 'round again, ami the clock ticks. Hut It doesn’t keep correct time. This business of calling "Tillie I” on the Hoc be means so many broken Mocks nowadays that the master-mender*, can t keep them on their tables after they're mended. So the question »here they shall sit around while they're be» Ing regulated looms large. The Red t'ross answers that quo«- tlon with Its convalescent hoinea. It has six of these In operation, A suit- able place Is found sometime« do nated and management and equip ment are provided by the Red t’rosa, while the Army has furnlslied disci pline and a never-falling supply of con valescents. These homes mean that men who af scarcely hospital subjects, yet who can by no means go back to tlielr du- ties, have u place that does whnt “home" does for tin’ French or Eng lish .soldier, what •'home" does for any one, tn fact, when the doctor gets through. You know. He Mys: “You're all right now. It’s only a matter of nurs ing and food." Hut you know he's only looking at the works he's tinkered, and that the soul within you Is grousing as It never did when the body was down nml out. It wants something, and It doesn’t know what It Is. Hut If It doesn't get It pretty quick the works are going to get gummed again. You know your mother could find out what that dog gone thing Is right away and hand It to you on a plate. Hut General Per shing won't let you go to her. • • • And the War I >epartiiient won't let her come to you Then you’re .aken to a lied Croas convalescent home s and there Is th» very thing you wunted I But you couldn’t describe It even then to save your life. It is a bit of reddling, and pretty surniundlngs, and women's faces, and light laughter and time to play and all that sort of thing. It Is forgetting the crash of war and remembering that there arc pleasant, soft voices. It's even such things as gally-llowered sofa pillows to Jam Into a corner and muke a nice lolling place while you read and smoke and nlk. It's slippets In stead of trench boots, or day-dreams In place of the nightmare of killing. NO SEALS SOLD THIS YEAR. The customary sale of Red Cross Christmas seals will not be held this year. It seemed best to both the American Red Cross and the National Tuberculosis Association to unite tn the-Red Cross Christmas Roll Cal! to reduce the number of appeals to the public for contributions. There will be no lessening of activities by the National Tuberculosis Association through this arrangement, as the lied Cross War Council has appropriated *2,500.000 for antl-tuberculoala work In 1919 in lieu of the money that ordi narily would l>e raised by a Christmas Seal Campaign. However, every Iver son Joining the Red Cross during the Red Cross Christmas Roll Call will be awarded ten seals to be used as here tofore. THE RED CROSS GORDON.

MODERATH PRICES An American Red Cross worker who was among those volunteering to help In the hospitals and at the stu'lon where the hospital trains arrived, over heard some of the wounded talking about the American Red Cross. “Gee I We’d a starved If It hadn’t been for the Red Cross!” salil one ls>y, and then, laughing nt his own exagger ation, he went on to explain the cir cumstances under which the Red Cross representative with his division had done sonio timely service. The Ger mans, of course, were to blame, for they retreated so rapidly that it was practically Impossible for the supplies to keep up with the pursuing Ameri cans. * "We denned up seven kilometers In less than two hours,” another reclining figure explained, "and they were still going when I was knocked out. For three «lays I had had nothing to eat but hard tack, and for some days tie- fore the food had been monotonous— to put it mildly. So you can Imagine what It meant to us boys to have the Red Cross Gordon come up with a sup ply of chocolate, canned penefaes and jther good things. It was a life saver.” PttONF.: TABOR 17.1 1918 RED CROSS CHRISTMAS SEAL Try Our E Z.

LENTS ROLL OF HONOR --- Increase in American Hog« Will Help to Meet World Fat Shortage. FARMERS SAVE Government Justified SITUATION la Stimulation of Pork Production—Sevenfold lacreaos Over Pre- War ■ «ports. Through Increaavd production and conservation we will be able thia year to export seven times our pre-war average extorts of pork products With the heavy demands added tu rar ing for the millions who have been freed from Gorman opproaalon, the Department of Agriculture aud the Food Admlnlatratioa are justified to day tn our every action of stimulation of hog production. In the coming yrar the greutvat world shortage will be In fata and pork will help to save thia situation. The efficacy of the policy of stimulated production has built up tn this country supplies which will en able us to supply a very large part of the fat deficiency of the world In beef there must bo a shortage In Eu rope, due largely to Uwlted refrigera tor ship rapacity, All fr*es<-r shit* available, however, wtU be filled by America. Argentine ■nd Australia, The contribution mad« by th« pro- durars of thia country to th» war pro gram as applying particularly to ani mal food products la Illustrated by tlx following: Reports compiled by the U.

In thia period there was a decrease tn sheep of 819,000 head. The Indica tions are that this decrease will show an Increase, according to recent re- porta • Since January 1 unofficial 'nforma tion Indicates an Increase In bogs of not less than 8 per cent, and not more than 15 per cent as compared with one year ago, with an Increase tn the average weight Following the request of the U. R. Food Administration for an Increase In hog production for marketing In tbs full of 1918 and the spring of 1919 ths Increase may yield not leas than 1.600,- 000,000 pounds more of pork products than were available last year. With out this Increase the shipping program arranged by Mr. Hoover regarding an- lmnl food products would have been Impossible, The dressed hog products during the three months ending September 80, 1917, amounted to 903,172,000 pounds^ while for the corresponding months of 1918 the dressed hog products totaled 1.277,589,01 Ml, an Increase of over 874,- 000,000 pounds for tbo quarter. During the same period for 191T the records of Inspected slaughter of dressed beof showed 1,263.000,000 pounds as against 5,454.000.000 pounds for the three month period ending September L ibis year. - - - I huma« Ksith Anderton Dr. R M.
