BUT JADE CAME BACK Jade Rivera is the name of a color ed gentleman who was fined $40.01 some time ago for shooting anothe gentleman of about the same color But as Jade hadn't paid the sail fine, an order for his arrest was giv en last Saturday to a magistrate': constable. The said constable not being ac quainted with Jade, requested th? town Marshal to make the arrest. This the constable did very prompt and led the said Jade before the pro n?. M "? ijv> hi?ki no aioremention ed Marshal then went on a search foi the magistrate's constable whose presence was required. After waiting some time the magistrate and the prisoner became weary, not to say impatient, and they agreed that the prisoner should go and sec what delayed the police officials. Hut once out of sight of magistrate and police, Jade began to think. Ho was very tired, having plowed all week, and he knew that those jail cots were hard. So it happened that in a short time the town and vicinity was again beng.searched for Jade. All day Sunlay a sharp look-out for Jade was Maintained but to no avail. This tale was told to The Advertiser man on Monday in the presence >f this same Jade, who was accom>anied by $40.00 ready to pay his ine. He grinned as he leaned against a lost waiting to bo re-re-arrested. BIRTHS To Mr. and Mrs. Dan Martin, darch 1 Gth, a girl. To Mr. and Mrs. J. Burch, March 11th, a girl. To Mr. and Mrs. Ben T.

COLLECT CLOTHES THIS WEEK The Rod Cross has begun it week's ampaign for second-hand clothing or overseas relief. This country-wide campaign was ndertaken by tlie Red Cross at the 1 i'?iuest of the Belgian relief commision, which declares that the welltoo-peojile of Belgium and Kranee are j ' i need of the real necessities and to poor are absolutely destitute. | Ivon if money were no considera- ^ ion it would be difficult to provide uflicient clothing on account of the j care tv of raw materials, ami so ; lie people of the United States are eing asked to look through their] rardrohes and donate all surplus ; armcnts. These garments need not J e in perfect condition, provided they j ( re of (fond, strong material and orth making over; for the relief ommission has assembled groups of ( omen all over Belgium who gladly ike second hand Hothing, rip it up, ash, sponge and press it, and rclake it. Often two or more garments * m he combined to make one new ne, and the work gives the women cupation and takes their minds otT udr misery. ( Outer laments are especially | ^ ceded and black is preferred. This iniple slatf'tuir in the campaign ullctin has an all t ><> obviou mean- j lg and a tragic pathos? "no red and Illy green," says tin- bulletin, mong the other "don'ts f<?r doners" ( re these: Don't send anytime.? or s iir and hard material, stieh as men's erby hats; and don't send anything v lade of rubber, such as suspenders ml garters. I Men's and women's outer and un- , rrdothing and ehildren's tdothes of II sorts and babv layetts are need' (let all your old clothes ready, hey will be called for as quickly as ( ossible. All those in the county ml not convenient to a Red Cross ^ hapter, who have such serviceable lothes to donate may leave them at le ollice of The Chest erfield Adertiser. They will reach tluir in nded destination. s The Deparment of Agriculture is , ow opening a campaign urging far ^ icrs to refrain from selling hens ^ mm the first of February to the rst of May, and at the time requestit? buyers to refrain from buying s ens durint? that time. The Poultry and Kgg Section of the 'nited State Food Administration , els that this is a highly desirable ( love and requests your hearty co- , peration in seeing that the best possible results are secured. Kvery hen which is sold before the t rst of May represents a food loss to ( he nation of about thirty eggs. The :>tal loss of eggs represented by til ustontary selling ??f hens lid ween ^ he first of February ami the t"?: st f May amounts to about lati.tton <10 e^tfs. The value of these eyys is bout HO per cent of what the hen i- . dually worth, so that this program oes not entail a loss to the farmer, ut an actual vrain. Wm.
