A branch of the Red Cross work that is apparently receiving less at tention than it should have, is the preparation of surgical dressings. The knitting and sewing is a little more evident and possibly easier (or the women to get started in. Much ot it can be done at home and a great deal of it is work that they already know how U do. And so, naturally, more engage in it. With the sungical dressings it is different. They must be prepared under expert supervision and under the most rigid sanitary conditions. A skilled supervisor is necessary and they are hard to find. The supervisor should always be present and the working time is therefore limited to the hours when a supervisor is avail able. All this means more or less uncertainty and confusion for the women who are working under her. The surgical dressing work in Bend has been carried on by a few women, albly supervised, who have given af ternoons and, because only then was one supervisor available, evenings to the task. The other work, just as necessary, has been well prosecuted and these words are not to be taken as criticism of work thait has been done. Where the criticism lies is against the women who have not done anything. They are the ones who are needed and right now they are needed in the surgical dressings work. We hope they will come forth and join in the undertaking. ; Now get ready to pay your income tax. . Did you buy a Thrift Stamp this week? WELL TO KNOW WHAT TO SKIP Advice to Readers Is Worth Ponder- Ing Man Who Waited Many Years to Finish Book. "Reading should be a Joy, not a penance," snld Mr. Pett Ridge, at the 'Mansion bouse, after distributing 'prizes and certificates to pupils of the city of London college. "Above all," be added, according to jthe Dally Chronicle, "learn to skip. .Skipping Is an exercise which pre vents obeslity of the mind." Mr. Pett Ridge told some amusing 'stories. "In a military hospital," he said, "a man asked me whether I could get him "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.' He said, 'I began It 20 years ago. I borrowed It from another man. .Somebody pinched it from me when I was half way through It, and I've never had a chance of getting to the end of It' I found the book for him. ;He said, 'I'm very glad to have it. I .begun It 20 years ago' I said, 'Yes, but you've read a large number of books since then, haven't you? The iraan replied, 'Ob, no; I never tried !unother.' " Another story was of the agent of a pill and ointment firm who was sent into a foreign country. As a first step 'toward business he compiled a long 'list of complaints, beginning with "Asthma" and ending with "Zymotic diseases." Ills goods, he snld, would cure these ailments, and then, as a sort of postscript, he added : "If there should be any complaints existing In 'this country which are unknown In iEnglend, the pills and ointment will .cure them also." Internment In Switzerland. In Swltserlnnd work has been de clared obligatory for every Intern ed man whose health permits It The . Interned are divided Into six classes, according to their physical capacity for work, the classifica tion being Intrusted to practicing nhvslclans who must act with pru dence. The prisoner works for his", own welfare and re-education, not for the benefit of the Swiss, but care Is taken to avoid unfair competition with Swiss Industry, ne receives a wage commensurate with his labor, aome governments requiring a portion of the wage to be turned over to them to be used toward the cost of main taining their prisoners. Economical Seaman Decided to Walt; Until (iome Other Day to Have j His Picture Taken. If there Is a general impression that, A.frrTlcn In slow to full Into the routine, of economy ihkI conservation the belief! has not Impressed Itself upon a veteran photographer to seamen, whose curli-i stone stutlio Is somewhere along the1 river front, write." a New York corre spondent of the Pittsburgh Dispatch.! Recently he had a hard five minutes wfth a Yankee aubjeot, and he decided that certuln traits of the Scot nro de veloping In these United States. The photographer piped the man of the sen rolling along the street and besought him to have his picture taken, assur-j Ing him that the loveh ones at home are not to be forgotten and that these, days a striking pictorial memento Is of especial vuljte. The seaman. Just oil his vessel, stopped. He was a very grouchy seamnn, but one likely to have funds, someho,'.-, and so the photog rapher was at great pains to get him suitably posed and ready br the per manent record of his afternoon ap pearance. The last detail had been ar ranged and the seaman was standing flatly and determinedly agnlnst a fence! when the camera nnin started to press the bulb. "Walt," said the subject, getting out of pose. "I'll be here for a week and I'll see yer ngnln for a pic-. ter." "Well, why not now?" '"Cause." answered the economical seaman, "I got a chnw of terbacceh in me face ter-i day. I'll be along dgiu toward the end of the week some day when I ain't got a chuw in me mouth." i HAS ONLY IMPULSE TO RUN "t - i When Under Influence of Fear, Horse Has No Other Idea Save That of Blind Flight It was pathetic to see the terror of London horses when the tank passed through the city recently, writes a cor respondent. Many of them sighted the new-fangled contraption at a distance and stood with ears pricked forward, eyeballs starting and nostrils distend ed, and had to be held and screened until It passed by. It was, of course, the same In the early days of motor ing, but despite his tendency to panic the horse Is Intelligent if given a chance. When bicycles were novelties an acquaintance tells me his horse, In a Cheshire country district, showed great fear until a bicycle was one day brought to him and held beneath his nose so that he could Inspect It In de tail. He never minded them afterward. According to Romanes, the horse "is the only animal which under the Influ ence of fear loses the possession of every other sense In one mad and mas tering desire to run." This pathetic falling wns utilized by our men In the recent advance on Cambrel, when at one point, it Is recorded, a squadron of cavalry dismounted and stampeded their horses, wblch fled panic-stricken In the darkness toward the enemy lines, and so drew the German fire. Man chester Guardian. "Unele JBam." , The popular term "Uncle Sam," as applied to the United States govern ment, originated in Troy and Green bush, N. Y.. during the war of 1812-14. Elbert Anderson, Jr., one of the con tractors supplying the army of the north with provisions, in October, 1812, advertised for proposals for pork and beef to be delivered to him during the first fonr months of the following year In New York, Troy, Albany and Wnter ford. Among those who contracted to furnish him with beef, packed In bar rels, were Ebenczer and Snmuel Wil son, the Inlter fnmiliarly called by Tro jans "Uncle Sam," As the beef was delivered at Greenbush barracks from time to time the Troy soldiers' referred to ft as "Uncle Sam's" beef. The other soldiers, not knowing who "Uncle Sam" was, thought that the term was applied to the letters U. S. stamped upon the barrels by the government officials. Consequently It was not long before the term "Uncle Sam," mean ing the United States, was In common use. Japanese and Malays. The Japanese hnt resembles much the Malayan. So also does the Japa nese umbrella. The ancient Japanese helmet wns adorned with horns of animals. Similar helmets exist in the Malayan archipelago. The old-fn'sh-loned weapons of the Japanese police, used In particular for catching thieves, are still used by Malayan policemen. The custom of catching fish at night by torchlight prevails both In Japan nnd in the Malayan archipelago. An ordeal with boiling water, a special sort of football game, the popularity of cock fights and the custom of keeping sing ing Insects In little cages are found both among the Japanese and Malays. All 'this, asserts a writer, speaks In favor of the descent of the Japanese from the Malays. 8mall Patriot's Rebuke. The other day X answered a knock at the door and encountered a small boy, who immediately tried to sell me a choice assortment of knitting nee dles. "But, sonny, I don't knit," said L thinking to close the matter. He looked at me reproachfully for a moment and then: "Lady, aren't yon going to do anything for your coun try?" Chicago Tribune.
