HI V HHP CltOSS SEALS. lt is a pretty custom-and at tho same time a must helpful custom-. that has been carried out for a num ber of years- the buying' of Christ inas Hod Cross Seals. The money that is derived from the sale of these seals is devoted lo the work of eradicating tuberculosis, it disease that for yours upon years was con sidered ?is incurable, and the un fortunate ones who contracted .it doomed lo horrible death. Fortunately, medical research has brought to light (he fact that tuber culosis, or as we used to call it. "consumption," is hy no means necessarily fatal: hut the wo ful preval? nee of the disease makes con tinuous and strenuous warfare against it an absolute necessity. Hence the great need of funds to carry on this work year after year Hut work of curing old eases of the disease, and hy no means less im portant, the campaign of education tu hiing about prevention of the de velopment of new cases. There lies the (rouble to gel tho well peo ple take care of themselves and live in such manner, under such condi tions, as will make tho contracting of tuberculosis practically impossi ble. Hpwever, what we started mit to say ls this: Tho annual campaign for the salo of Christinas Ked Cross seals ls upon tis again, and we urgo nil lo patronize liberally this most worthy cause, lt is as much a work for humanity as were the Hod Cross drives for funds when our soldiers ,v^r^ ort ?hr? ???'<! of hattie hundreds, thousands woendml a:??i need lng Hie ril(eitUonfl wit no other or-: >;;uii;',ni?on or jitivv'or oil ear Hi aid ! n< e. Wo di'! m. illira bur dui? ! I hon ; .md duty call;: aft sitrohgl} ti dily as it ever did when wo coule almost hear the roar of the belching cannon and the shriek of Hie death dealing shells across the seas. The cause is tho same For Humanity. Hot us not pass it up for others to perform this great work. There ls something for all io do, and wo all can help. In the times hut very recently past sections of our own immediate county have felt the sore need ol' the services of a nurse-community nurse, county nurse-some one with ability and experience who can ho called on in cases of emergency. Hut there was no such one to be had. We have wished for snell a one, tele graphed, telephoned, written, begged all to no avail. Oconee had no nurse who could be classed ns a community nurse, and no community could secure the services of a nurse. This year tho Red Cross Seals will have an additional attraction for our people. If wo go at it with a will and sell ono thousand dollars worth of these "Seals for Humanity," 25 per cent - one fourth of tho amount -will be used for tho regular tu berculosis work being carried on, And the remaining 75 per cent, or .$750, will bo kept in the county to apply to the salary of a competent nurse. Even if there wero no great fea ture of this kind In connection with flin Ked Cross Seal sales Ibis year, .we would not bo doing too much if we exceeded the thousand-dollar mark. With this great local incen tive in connection with tho drive, wo ought to go "over the top" hy leaps and hounds. Lei's give three rousing cheers for the Red Cross Seal Campaign, and let us in cheering not forget that cheers cannot do (he work of dol lars. They are all very good in "whoopin' em up.' but it takes dol lars IO do the real work, Let's add dollars to our cheers for anti-tuberculosis work and for a eomnmnPy nurse' All together now -and from now till Chris? mas' "We will prosecute without mercy," so the authorities are quoted as saying in Now Orleans tho ot lue day. when :n thal city saloons were lo he open for a few days, and when an effort was going io he mad ', it was intimated, lo sell Intoxicating I Iq ti ors at as high a ps Ice as S i no a drink. Tho Federal office;.! h ec:, me won.* jrf illly active to prevent profiteering in liquor, when, as a maller of fuel, all parties con cerned would have been hotter off if what liquor was sold during those few days had boen sold at a thou sand dollars a drink, or drop, for thal maller. Yoi profiteering in products and articles absolutely es sential to Ibo well-being of the ol I i v.ens of this country goes on day by .day, prices continue lo ascend and conditions beconio worse, with no one to hinder, with no law to in voke for protection of the masses who are being daily robbed.

Olllcials were secretive as to how the alleged conspiracy was uncover ed, but a general outline of their methods was made available. lt was rovoalod that an attempt was made to repeat the suspected tactics of Hie I !) 1 8 campaign. Dudor Ibis plan, a corps of investigators were sent Into the State under direction of Karl J. Hooch, who, with Frank C. Dailey, special assistant to the attorney general, was a cent, al figure in thc election fraud cases of Terre liante, Indianapolis, Evansville and Frankfort, Ind.

Just Received T . jLime- Carload of -Little pl The Efficiency of the Chalmers Quality Flrtt SO much favorable com ment has been made on the engine of the Hot Spot Chalmers that we are in clined to feel that many overlooked the other great essentials of this magnifi cent car. There's 117 inches of wheel-base in a Hot Spot Chalmers and every inch denotes high efficiency. Radiator to rear axle, it indicates perfect design, su perior material, rare skill in workmanship, and an atten tion to detail that lifts it far above competition in price. Service department re cords prove this high effi ciency in a Chalmers by figures; it averages in cost to owners less than one per cent per year of the list price of the car for repair parts. As a matter of fact once an owner's licen.se plate is bolted on the Hot Spot Chalmers the car seldom re turns for service. Give it gas, oil, grease, water, and fair treatment and it'll respond like the fine "creature of steel" it ie. Price, $1685 f. o. h. Detroit Ballenger How. and Furniture Go., SENECA, S.
