Harry Says:
He is now showing lovely Autumn
time models just now displayed.
You will exclaim in delight when
you see these new models in the
Red Cross shoe. Boots more clever
ly styled have come to take the
place of Sammies’ favorites. Each
one bears the unmistakable imprint
of a master designer’s handiwork,
style without extravagance, and how
happy you will be when you try on
the model of your choice.

The small group of workers who
are able to come to the work room of
the Red Cross have made 18 pneumo
nia jackets. Some of them were
“hurry up calls,’’and all of them were
used by our local doctors and county
nurse, and the makers of them have
felt repaid for the rushing demand
on their time because they have felt
it only a very small part of the
heavy work the present epidemic puts
upon our nurse, our doctors and drug
gists.

Porter Chestnuft, one of the best
citizens of the Island neihborhood,
died early this morning from a week’s

will be buried by that order tomor
row morning at W*|alnut Grove. He
is survived by his wife and one child.
J. E. Parrott of Tuckerman, who
was so seriously injured Monday
when his team became frightened
and ran away, is reported to be
slightly better this morning, which
his friends are glad to learn and who
hope that each day will bring en
couraging news from the sick room.
The County Nurse now has a
phone in her office, No. 503, and her
office hours are fom 11 to 12 a. m.
and from 4 to 5 p. m., that is, these
would be her hours if she had any,
but since the epidemic, she has work
ed day and night and has been on
the way of mercy so constantly that
there is small chance of finding her
in her office. She has had some
splendid assistance from Miss Elise
Hooker, Mrs. Hardage and Mrs.
Moore, but she still has some very
sick babies and one or two families,
where a volunteer to spend even a
few hours of the night would help
very much. Mr. Lyman-Wheaton has
followed up her cases and been most
helpful to her. Adrien Balmaz, with
his car, has made it possible for her
to see many more people, yet she
never gets around. It didn’t take an
epidemic to prove to us that a Coun
ty Nurse would be our most valuable
and useful investment, but it has
proved it most conclusively.
“RELAXATION NOW WOULD
MEAN DEFEAT”— WILSON.
Washington, Oct. 15.—President
Wilson has issued the following
statement on the Liberty Loaft:
“The reply of the German govern
ment to my note of inquiry dated
October 8, gives occasion for me to
say to my fellow countrymen that
neither that reply nor any other re
cent event has in any way diminished^
the vital importance of the Liberty
Loan. Relaxation now, hesitation
now, would mean defeat when victory
seems to be in sight; would mean
years of war instead of peace upon
our own terms.
“I earnestly request every patriotic
American to leave to the govern
ments of the United States and of the
allies the momentous discussions ini
tiated by Germany and to remember
that for each man his duty is to
strengthen the hands of these gov
ernments and to do it in the most im
portant way now immediately pre
sented—by subscribing to the utmost
of his ability for bonds of the Fourth
Liberty Loan. That loan must be
successful. I am sure that the
American people will not fail to see
their duty and make it successful.”
GERMAN BRUTALITY.
Pitiable scenes are now being wit
nessed in Belgium as masses of peo
ple are driven along the roads by the
Germans, according to the Rosendaal
correspondent of the Rotterdam
i Maasbode. The roads around Brus
! rtwrl A Tvf WOVTl Vl P. S3.VS. clfG SO
crowded with refugees that traffic
is blocked, while between Brussels
and Antwerp there is one slowly
moving army of misery.
Processions of tens of thousands of
people with their goods, who have
traveled afoot from northern France
—from Lille, Turcoing and other
places—are being driven forward by
the Germans.
SAVED THEN LOST.
Little Rock, Oct. 15.—Fire which
damaged two one-stoy dwellings at
Ninth street and Broadway early yes
terday morning, brought forth a hero
for one brief minute, then made him
into a dub again.
One of the roomers at one of the
dwellings is “Pete,” a blind negro,
who plays a big bass fiddle in an or
chestra of negro musicians. “Pete”
hastily beat a retreat at the first
alarm, not knowing how far the fire
had gone. On reaching the street he
let out a yell, “Save mah fiddle!”
“Save mah fiddle!”
A negro bystannder dashed into the
burning building, under the eyes of
a hundred spectators. In a minute,
out he dashed with the precious bass j
■r'f
viol under his arms. The big instru
ment obstructed his view as he ran
rcross the street, his feet became en
tangled in a stretch of fire hose and
down came the hero, fiddle and all,
with a loud bang. He got up with
the remnants in his hands and was
careful to duck Pete’s vengeful hands.
The fiddle had been saved and
lost again.
