To Name WaY Zone
Canteen Workers j
Mrs. Joseph Cudahy" of Chicago ar-:
rived Wednesday morning to confer!
with iebraska women who have
made application to be sent to Francjt
as Red Cross canteen workers. !
"Red Cross headquarters has asked
the central division, to supply about
25 workers," Mrs. Cudahy told the
applicants who assembled at the
Wead building this morning to meet
her.
"After selecting four from Chicago,
I naturally turned to Nebraska, be
cause I always regard it as home and
I knew that your chapter here was so
splendidly organized."
Mrs. Cudahy is at "the head of the
canteen work of the central division.
She was attired in the divisional and !
national headquarters uniform. The
suit was fog colored woolen material.
It was made with a short plain shirt,
Norfolk jacket with large patch
pockets. It was belted with a black
leather belt and buttoned with, gun
metal buttons.
She wore the war hat, a blue sailor
with a Red Cross insigna in front.
The costume was completed with tan
pumps and sand colored spats and a
while blouse worn with a four-in-hand
blue tie.
The costume is very similar to that
worn by canteen workers in the war
zone.
Full time volunteers are required
for the work abroad, according to
Mrs. Cudahy. Workers may be sent
to do clerical or surgical dressing
work if needed in those branches
more than in the canteen.
No one with relatives in the serv
ice, or with German or Austrian con
nection by birth, marriage or name,
will be considered. Workers may
have to spend 18 hours a day at the
work, meeting troop trains at night,
or other emergency work may be in
cluded. The Red Cross reserves the right
at any time to return a worker who
proves unsatisfactory.
"We can't take women who are
temperamental and particular about
what kinds of work they are fitted
for. We must send women who are 100
per cent efficient and who are pos
sessed of the real Red Cross spirit
of willingness to help in any way
they are useful," Mrs. Cudahy told her
audience.

TAKE THE LOAN
By Kdward Kverett Hal.
(May, ISol Written by Edward Everett Hale, when the people had to
be urged to subscribe for a 7.3 per cent loan. Those who did so are today
millionaires.;
Ionic, freemen of the land,
(tome, meet the great demand. 4
True heart and open hand,
Take the loan!
For the hopes the prophet saw,
For the swords your brothers draw,
For liberty and law.
Take the loan!
Ye ladies of the land.
As ye love the gallant band
Who have drawn a soldier's brand,
Take the loan!
Who would bring them what hc
could,
Who would give the soldier food,
Who would stanch her brother's
blood,
Take the loan!
All who saw our hosts pass by,
All who joined th" parting cry,
All we bade them do or die,
Take the loan!
As ye wished their triumph then,
As ye hope to meet again,
And to meet their gaze like men,
Take the loan !
Who would press the great appeal
Of our ranks of serried steel,
Put your shoulder to the wheel,
Take the loan!
That our prayers in truth may rise,
Which we press with streaming eyes
On the lord of earth and skies,
lake the loan! .

Something Hew in Town From
"The Land of the Long Leaf Pine"
A Remarkable Treatment From North Carolina
That Relieves Croup and Cold Troubles With
out the Necessity of Internal "Dosing" Applied
Externally, It is Inhaled as a Vapor and also
- Absorbed Through the Skin.
Local Druggists Are Selling 25c
Jars on 30 Days' Trial No
Charge if Not Delighted with
the Besults. i
Every year thousands of people,
fluttering from, various forms of lung
trouble, make a pilgrimage to the pine
barrens of North Carolina, "the land
of the long leaf pine." The reason
lies in the warm, dry' air, perfumed
with the spicy odor of the pines.
Local druggists, however, have re
cently received a treatment that is
almost as good as a trip South. This
is Vick's VapoRub, the Invention of a
North Carolina druggist
VapoRub comes in salve form and
when applied over the throat and
rhest, the body heat releases medi
cated vapors that are Inhaled with
each breath, through the air passages,
to the lungs; loosening the phlegm
and soothing the inflamed membrane.
In cases of severe chest colds,
bronchitis, tonsilitis or incipient pneu
monia, first apply hot,, -wet towela to
open the pores. VapoRub is then ab
sorbed -through and stimulates the
skin, taking out that tightness and
soreness in the chest
One rubbing with VapoRub usually
relieves croup within 15 minutes and
an application at bedtime prevents a
night attack. For head colds, hay
fever; catarrh or asthmatic troubles,
VapoRub can either be applied up the
nostrils or a little melted In a spoon
and the vapors inhaled.
The progressive drugglBts here are
anxious that their customers ahould
try this new treatment and are, there
fore, offuring VapoRub on 30 days'
trial-
