0 i' W- THE OQrtDON QLOOC PAGE 2 When a free press1 was guar ELECTRICITY DELCO-LIGHT P The Best Lighted Farm in the County" One prominent farmer says: , "Delco-Light has actually added to the value of my farm "The neighbors speak of it as the best lighted farm in the county But it is more than that it is the best place in which to live and to raise a family." Delco-Light .brings city comforts and conveniences and economies to the farm. It lights the house and barn: it furnishes power to pump the water, wash the clothes, churn the butter, separate the cream run the vacuum cleaner and the electric fan. It is so simple that a child can operate it and so economical that it actually pays for itself in time, labor and fuel saved. W. G.

AinHU ttm yand Dollar Bayers Want Ads One of the Fossil stores is showing up the mail order busi ness of Sears, Roebuck & Co. by advertising a comparison of prices. The price of certain ar tides at the store in Fossil a given as well as the price ot Sears, Roebuck & Co. for the same article and in Fossil priot are the cheapest. ' The same thing can be done in Hondo-. Our local merchants will Hell bt i ter goods for the same money than we can get from Sears Roebuck & Co. but the Iocs stores fail to get this home to u through lack of advertising. Sears, Roebuck & Co. know th value of advertising and, althougl it costs them big money, it get them the business. The Fossi erchant is taking business awaj from the big mail order house be cause he tells the people plainly that he can save them mone and then proves it. It is every body's duty to buy at home and there is no reason for sending away when the local merchant? beat the mail order price. On the other hand it is the business for the merchant to tell us that he can and will do this. If there is more than one heaven, we hope we don't get our eternal reward in the same one with the psalm-singing pa triarch who stopped bis paper owing us seven bucks because we sent him a statement. The paper alone for Sears, Roebuck & Co. 's catalogues costs hem well over a million dollars out they pay it gladly for they know advertising gets them the 'usiness The ant and the bee have a habit of dealing unkindly with anyone who attempts to interfere with their business and they are pointed to as models of industry.

The surgeon hat extracted tbe Im partially distributed blta of shrapnel from your work. The wounds bars healed. The wheela go 'round again, sod the clock ticks. But It doesn't keep correct time. This business ot calling "Tim I" oa tbe Boche tneana so many broken clocks nowadays'' that the master-menders can't keep tbem on their tables after they're mended. So the question where they shall sit around while they're be ing regulated looms large. Tbe Red Cross answers that ques tion with Its convalescent homes. It has tlx ot these In operation. A suit able place Is found sometimes do natedend management and equip ment are provided by tbe Red Cross, while the Army has furnished disci pline and a never-falling supply of con valescents. These homes mean that men who are scarcely hospital subjects, yet who can by no means go back to their du ties, have a place that does wbst "home" does for the French or Eng lish soldier, what "home" does for any one. In fact, when tbe doctor gets through. You know. He says: "You're all right now. It'a only a matter of nurs ing and food." But you know he's only looking at the works he's tinkered, and thst the soul within you Is grousing as it never did when the body was down and out It wants something, and It doesn't know what It Is. But if It doesn't get It pretty quick the works are going to get gummed again. Xou know your mother could find out what that dog gone thing Is right away and band It to yott on a plate. But General Per shing won't let you go to her. And the War Department won't let her come to you Then you're taken to a Red Cross convalescent home and there Is tbe very thing you wanted I But you couldn't describe It even then to save your life. It Is a bit of coddling, and pretty surroundings, 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 are pleasant, soft voices. It's even such things as gaily-flowered sofa pillows to jam Into a corner and make a nice lolling place while you read and smoke and talk. It's slippers In stead of trench boots, or day-dreams In place of the nightmare of killing. NO SEALS SOLD THIS YEAR. The customary sale of Bed 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 In the Red Cross Christmas Roll Call to reduce the number of appeals to tbe public for contributions. There will be no lessening of activities by tbe National Tuberculosis Association through this arrangement, aa the Red Cross War Council has appropriated $2,000,000 for anti-tuberculosis work In 1919 In lieu of the money that 'rdl nartly would be raised by a Chrltttmaa Seal Campaign. However, every per son joining the Red Cross during the Red Cross Christmas Roll CaU will be awarded ten seals to be used as aer tofore.

Aa American Red Cross worker who was among those volunteering to help In tbe hospitals and at the station 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 I" said one boy, and then, laughing ot hla own exagger ation, be went on to explain the cir cumstances under which the Red Cross representative with his division had done some timely service. The Oer mana, 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 cana. "We cleaned up seven kilometers la leas than two hours," another reclining Agora explained, "and they were still going when I was knocked out For three days I had had nothing to eat but hard tack, and for some days be fore tbe 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, earn ed peaches and other good things. It was a life-saver."
