PUBLICITY COMMITTEE RED CROSS ASKS FOR REPORTS The publicity committee of the Red Cross asks that each committee report to it such items as may be of interest to the public. Those items may be concerning work done by each committee or may be miormauon of state or national interest. The office of Dr. F. D. Mower, which he has kindly given for the use of the Red Cross, has been marked by an appropriate sign, and is being kept open several days each week. For the present, any one in the country desiring information about the work or the organization of new chapters, may get this information by calling at the Red Cross Headquarters on Saturday morning between the *%.? * r\-r\A \ 11UU1S ui tcu auu uuc. y Kadi man, woman and child in Newberry County should be a member of (the Red Cross. Are you? If not, kand in your name at once and pay your dues of $1.00. This is the only volunteer society authorized by the government to lend aid to the naval and land forces of our country in time of war. Our boys are going to the front to give their all, if need be; tball not we, who remain at aome xu comfort and safety on account of their sacrifice, not do our part by these noble boys, and our great country? The following article, by William H. Taft, the chairman of the Central Committe, gives an idea of the great "work to be done by the Red Cross at this time. "It is one of the blessed fun<!Eions of the Red Cross to open the hearts of the people and bring forth the gener? -AfTvinca in mnnev. materials VU3 X copuuuv, . , and services by which alone the distressed can be succored. There is no on* in America who would think of refusing aid once the reality of the situation is vividly impressed upon his mind. The difficulty is to make our people realize how vast, how desperate, how terribly [^^^ea! is the need.

That means it is the task of every one of us who f has undertaken to do what he can for the Red Cross. What must be done in Northern Prance is a task almost beyond human comprehension. Imagine, if you can, a country of complete devastaJ tion, not a house standing, not a rtool or any usahle thing left, not a tree that will ever bear fruit again. This country must "be rehabilitated, and it is we who must undertake a great part of the burden. Picture, too, a great poulation ravaged by tuberculosis as no people ever were before. To give aid to them now is to save the lives of thousands. And then Belgium! A task" more 6tupendous! These are but suggestions of som* of the scenes ir. these regions of war. They must be effaced, jyst as quickly as the armies of the Allies and the outpourings from heart and purse of .those at home can accomplish the task.

Disordered stomachs are responsible for nearly all bodily ills. Where a person eats heartily ami digests his food properly the blood '5 vitalized and enriched, which sets the liver and kidneys nnd all the vital organs into active and healthful operation. Where the stomach is strong the blood is the nerves are strong: where the nerves are strong the kidneys, heart and Iung^ and liver are strong. Many people die from starvation; that is thev starve the blood, thev starve the nerves and the general tissues of the whole body. Not that people do not fill the;r stomachs with nourishing food, but because what they do put into the stomach does not properly disrest, does not "properly assimilate."

We have -been permitted to read the letter, which is a purely personal one. The young man is "well and getting i along fine." He wants to know about j everything and everybody in the i neighborhood, and wishes he was clos'e i enough to come home once :n a whl1rt. i But he says he is a long ways from j home, and never did he think he would j be as far from home as he is today.

He shows his good qualities also in writing that he was glad to hear that his sisters made their grade last year and telling them to study between vacation j j and to make good next year too, and i if he can he will try to send them j cnmpthinsr. He is a dutiful and af-; | fectionate son and good citizen, as he' ' tells his father that he has arranged j to have a portion of his pay sent di-^ J rect to him at Newberry, to be used j i in payment of his, the son's, debts and j ! if any of the amount is left over for, j his father to use it. That is what we | call a fine letter. The soldiers don't | put stamps on their envelopes. The postage is collected through the home ! postoffice.

Mr. J. H. Baxter has been ma?e an active member of the association. The object of the Purple Cross will be the better understood ;f wo nuntp s> ?pntpnr>o of n Ipttpr rpf-piv " v Muvvv ^ ? ed by Mr. Baxter from Mr. Howard S. Eckels of Philadephia. as follows: "Realizing long ago what a loss would be if the bodies of our soldiers killed abroad were not immediately prepared so that they might eventually be Drought back home for burial, we have worked hard with the government to have this done." This is a most vital matter, as it seeks "to render possible the return of the bodies of our soldier dead to their home burial grounds in a sanitary and recognizable ^-ndit-on." Mr. Baxter will be constantly in touch with the latest and most authoritative information on the subject. As stated the Purple Cross has offered *o supplement its work along lines similar to those of the Red Cross. Read an article dealing more fully with this important matter, printed elsewhere in this paper, and take an interest in it. It is the duty of every citizen to grasp the necessity for this. Every portion of the United States will feel the touch of war, as a staff correspondence of the Associated Press describes it when he speaks of our soldiers having to ''plunge into a seething cauldron at the front." when a "baptism of fire will be one of the first experiences, followed by the horror of asphyxiating gas and. hand grenades."

Join in with him to help yv->"1- .-?* r-'por'r- ftpfk the bodies of dead sdldiers who will be slaughtered in Europe.
