The surgeon has extracted the Im-
¡'arttally distributed bits of shrapnel
from your works The wounds have
healed. 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.

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.”

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
