CLEAN KITCHENS Dear Headers: 1 wrote last week on washing vour hands. You may he opposed to clean hands, lmt there are lots of persons who are not. It my last article caused one family to he more particular about washing the hands often 1 accomplished much good, because that family will - tell others about it. 1 am sure there wore some who learned this important lesson on cleanliness and were benefited, for one sub scriber writes us it was appreci ated by him and family and was worth a great deal, as it caused them to he more careful and think more an this line than ever before. “Clean Kitchen**” is my subject for this issue, and if you will put on your thinking cap and just half observe, survey your own kitchen closely and make it convenient to visit a few kitchens among your neighbors, you will agree with me most of them are in a filthy condi tion, need a general renovating and cleaning up and a continua tion of it every day in the year. The dirtiest and filthiest places 1 have visited during my journey through life. I think sometimes, have been the kitchens where the food we eat is cooked and prepar ed. Some of them are veritable disease carriers to the stomaehe, breeding typhoid fever and all oth er disease germs known to the medical profession. Some Things You Will Find. You will find in the majority of kitchens, flics by tlie score, just arrived from filth and garbage re volting to think about. You will find decayed and re fuse Vegetables and slops left in the kitchen all night and longer, decayed meats and'an odor when •you go in, especially in the morn ing, which ought to cause us to think if anything will make us SALVATION ARMY .VALIANT IN WAR r Having Served Gloriously in the Trenches, Is Coming Back From Overseas for Peace Time Activities. ASKS HOME SERVICE FUND. National Campaign to Replenish Re sources Depleted by Long and Di rect Contact Services With ', Our Boys Scheduled for May 19-26. / * ' ■ New York (Special).—l.tke the 2,000,000 American boys whom It served so gloriously In the trenches ot France, the Salvation Army Is coming hack from overseas, ready to put aside Its khaki uniform of war service, don again the “Civvies" and embark once more on Its normal peace time activi ties. And. Just like those doughboys, the Salvation Army has come out of the war victorious and with citations for bravery, decorations for gallantry un der Are nnd golden chevrons Indica tive of honorably won wounds on Its anti. The victory which the Salva tion Army has won Is a victory over the obstacles that lay before It In Its purpose of efficient service of the fight ers of I’ershlng s army. Its citations are the thanks, cheers and prayers of 2,000,000 doughboys. Its wound stripes ara rightfully golden of hue, for they typify the unselfish way In which the Army threw all Its resources —finan- cial, spiritual and moral—lnto the ef fort to help the American soldiers In France. Now tho Army ia suiting tho poopla of America to giro It concrete evidence of the gratitude which hae been so loudly, and so willingly eipresaetl. From May 19 to 26 the Salvation Army will conduct In the United States a campaign to raise $13,000,000 for It* Home Service Fund. The money Is needed both to recoup the fortunes of the Army, shattered hy Its long service of the soldier and to permit It to carry on the work It has always done on the larger scale which the po(Wo now demands. Ratslug the money by this means, the Salvation Army eiplatns, will eliminate, perhaps permanently, the necessity for the ceaseless solicita tion of funds which has been a bug bear to the Army and the public alike. It will permit the workers of the Army, wton, forced to deWWe more than half their time to gathering money, were In consequence only half efficient in their evangelistic and social service work, to devote all their time in future to the duties for which they have been trained. By Betsey Doolittle think about cleanliness. You will fund old oil cloths on many of the tables cracked from the years of age and filled with grease and dirt and disease germs. But the worst of all you will find dish-rags which have seen luigliter and cleaner days in the weeks that have passed and gone, and which have become so black and dirty from long use and lack of soap you will be shocked w hen you view them and think for a mo ment on their filth and how very dangerou ß il is to still use them. Long enslaved and dirty dish rags have been the cause of the death angel visiting thousands of homes in this inteligcnt. educated and civilized land we delight to call the land of the free and the home of the brave. If you wish to be brave and free, burn these filthy dish-rags aiuj thus help free yourself and loved ones from such an enec”' You will find many of the dishes pan Band cooking vessels go for hours or a day or more unwashed by many careless and filthy cooks, if they can get along without them and dust and dirt are allowed to accumulate in numbers of kitch ens to an alarming extent. Dirty kitchens! Just pause a minute, go in and take a causual look at your own and examine your neighbors and you will con clude this picture is not over drawn and that the half has never yet been told. Surely then Cleanliness needs being taught and talked more. It is amazing to know how filthy we are and we don’t realize it. We are all guilty and the way to stop it is to get dean. Tell your neigh bors to read after Yours for Cleanliness, BETSY DOOLITTLE. WINDER HIGH SCHOOL CLOSED MONDAY. (Continued from front page.) I just Sunday morning Dr. S. J.
