by the commanding general. You wil

with Red Cross knitted goods.
Hereafter when individual requesti

contents of the attached bulletin. Yoi

Very sincerely yours,
LESLIE W. CETCHELL,
Director Bureau of Military Relief.
■ Following is a copy of a bulletin re
cently issued by Brigadier Genera
Frederick S. Foltz, at Camp Lewis
American Lake, Washington:
, “Headquarters 91st Division,
“Camp Lewis, Wash.,
; January 27, 1918.
, "Memorandum.
“The American Red Cross Society
desires to publish the following for the
information and guidance of all con
cerned:
“Each Red Cross chapter has a home
service section, composed of leading
patriotic citizens, and organized under
stress of war conditions for the fol
lowings purposes;
“To give emergency financial aid if
it will relieve distress in your family.
“To make sure that competent legal
or medical aid, or both, is given to
your family if their necessities call
for either.
“In other words, to relieve your anx
iety about your beloved ones and to
provide emergency relief.
“it is expected that your family will
assist themselves in every way possi
I ble before application is made to the
J Red Cross.
Applications for assistance should
be made by the soldier in either of two
ways—direct, to his company com
mander, who should take up the mat
ter with the field director at the Ked
Cross building. First avenue north and
East way, or direct to the field director
of the Red Cross, First avenue north
gnd East way,
“The American Red Cross Society
desires to furnish one W'oollen sweater
and two pairs of woollen socks to all
members of this command who need
them. These articles are to be issued
to each regiment as part of the retf,
mental equipment, and not as the per
sonal property of the soldier, so that
when a man is separated from the
service these articles should remain
with the regiment for reissue.
"Regimental and separate organiza
tion commanders will submit to this
office before noon Monday, January 28,
1918, a requisition of the number of
sweaters and socks needed completely
to equip their organization. This does
not contemplate the furnishing of ad
ditional sweaters, and in cases where
men already have sweaters and socks
and do not need more, no requisitior
should be placed for these men.’’

(By Associated Press)
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. l9_“Thi
cent has come to stay.” This seems t<
be the verdict of the merchants ant
storekeepers of this city. One ant
two-cent newspapers and the cafeterii
started the circulation of the humbli
copper piece. The war has added thi
final impetus to its use.
| To the average Easterner, who ha
i always been used to seeing the cent ii
circulation, the foregoing may not b
quite clear. In the early days of Sai
Francisco no coin of a value of les
than 25 cents ever was used or seer
Later dimes and nickles began to ai
pear, but even the high school boy o
today can remember when the coppe
penny was something of a curiosity.
Within the past four or five year
the cent piece has come more an
more in evidence. It has become full
, established in the department store
£ and cafeterias, and now Uncle Sam i
: popularizing it through his thrift ce
tificates. The thrift certificate ii
creases in value one cent each montl
It costs $4.13 this month. It will cot
$4.14 in March. Incidentally, Unci
Sam has, by this means, given th
cent a dignity which it previously di
not possess here. There was a prejui
ice against it which is said to be fa
disappearing, for the government hs
shown that the cent is as potent as th
dollar in helping to win the war.
j More than this, there is a deman
i for it, and on various occasions th
East has been asked to ship cei
pieces west in order that the deman
for them might be kept supplied. Bus
ness men generally have expressed th
opinion that only by the use of the
cent could both the retailer and con
sumer do business on a sound eco
nomic basis.
It is a new experience for San Fran
ciscans, but they have come to enjoy
it if the demand for the copper pieces
■ Is any criterion.
; RESIDENTS OF ISLANDS
MUST EATDWN BANANAS
i
(By Associated Press)
HONOLULU, T. H., Jan. 22—“Eat
i bananas” is the slogan that is plas
tered all over Honolulu today. Dead
walls, street car fenders and street car
windows, the windows of stores, sign
boards about the city—everywhere
that a poster will stick blazens the
injunction. “Eat bananas.”
The object of the so-called banana
campaign is twofold—to get rid of the
huge surplus of the fruit and reduce
the consumption of other foods that
have to be imported or that may go
toward the feeding of the army In
FYance.
Since the government took over
most of the big passenger and freight
vessels that formerly plied between
! Honolulu and the mainland, shipping
facilities for the bananas raised in
Hawaii have been reduced to practi
cally nothing. Thousands of bunches
of the fruit are going to waste, it be
ing impossible to move them.
To remedy as far as possible this
condition, a committee of prominent
business men of Honolulu was formed
last week, whose object was to in
crease the eating of bananas by the
local population. They became active
at once and enlisted as their aids the
Boy Scouts of the city. Since then
the Scouts have canvassed the city,
taking orders for bunches of bananas
from housewives and business men.
Thousands of bunches were sold in
i this manner.
Yesterday was set aside as “banana
day.” and practically every business
house in the city had a big bunch of
bananas hanging in its doorway, from
which those who would might pluck
and eat.
So long as there were shipping fa
cilities, all the better fruit was sent to
the coast, the local people having to
content themselves with the smaller
pud less showy bananas.

THE QUICK OR THE DEAE
Crushed tho’ the heart be, mourning
its dead
When the loved one lies cold and
still;
Silent lips may not smile nor answer—
No more of life’s promise fulfill.
Yet how far more crushed the heart
that grieves
For the loved one who’s gone away
Buoyant with life, heeding not love.
Care-free, glad, in new walks to stray!
Forsaken in death, deserted in life—
The first a reunion may know;
Forsaken in life, never more hearts
may wake.
For love once dead may no longer
grow!
[—Annabelle Dennison MacConnell.

WHY
By buying a through ticket yousave from $10.00 to $15.00 as against
buying to Seattle and re-uying there.
By buying over the C. M. & St. P. Ry you are assured the comfort
that comes from riding behind an Electric locomotive—the most pow
erful in the world—and that personal attention which is a feature of
"Milwaukee” service.
