Every day a more or less sizeable body of women meet in a ground floor office temporarily fitted for them in the Demsev Hotel Building and wrk with energy, persistence and enthusi asm toward building up in Macon the sort of Red Cross chapter the city must have if it is to do its duty in this war, if it expects its own boys to be treated as they should be when they leave here. A few men in the city ere unselfishly giving their time to help out and a great many more men have given a little money and then gone about their business. The conse quence is we are far, far behind in our Red Cross organization in Macon and it has come time for some plain speaking on subject. It does seem sometimes that the great American people will never wake up to the fact that the sons of their homes will soon be'dying in Eu ropean trenches, that their legs, arms, faces will be torn from their bodies in the hell of shell fire, that they will be crumpling before the hail of ma chine gun bullets, that before long the trains of wounded coming back in awful procession from the front will be filled with Americans * * * r.ot with French and English, with Belgians and Germans —but with Americans, with boys from Georgia and Kansas, from Maine and Califor nia, from Indiana and Alabama, from Macon and Fort Valley and Forsyth; that they will be coming back to American Red Cross hospitals. These boys—our own flesh and blood, the lads who have the right to ask of us every sacrifice that might make for them their work move effic ient, their chance stronger for life, for fuller recovery—foil see the day if we—us-, right here in Macon—don’t bestir ourselves when, groaning and twisting and bleeding in front line hos pitals, they will curse and damn the lag-wavers and the speech-makers md the cheerers and band-followers it home, on whose lips were words of’ patriotism, in whose hearts was not mough to induce them to pay even he hospital bills of boys wfiio of erefi their lives This must not happen and yet it vill happen if we do not undergo some ort of spiritual awakening that will >ring home to every one of us the ieed of our getting these things ready ong before the men are wounded and rying for them. Anaesthetics, band ges, ambulances, hospital supplies re utterly useless unless they are eady in sufficient quantity before the icttm needs them. Morphine and >dine sent forward after the first .merican advance against the Ger man lines won't save the life of a sin le badly hurt Georgian, of one rid ded Macon boy—they must, go to the ront with him. , ---• Tmy\~ ■9 • • Those of us who think that the wo jen who sew the bandages and knit nd so forth are taking care of the ted Cross work simply don't know’ /hat the Red Cross is. Its greatest eed is never volunteer service, gen rally untrained and useless, Is not ften the output of the sewing circle, welcome though these things are. Vhat it wants now and all the time, lore and more and yet more of it — } money. Its work is tremendous, it ? about to become collossal. Our oldiers cannot be sent into battle ntil the Rod Cross is ready. And yet •e give it a few cents and pass on. America has done so little to relieve uttering in this war. We made more rofit out of food sales to the Belgian elief Commission than we donated ) the funds from all sources. There , one country in the war zone that as given six dollars per capita to the ed Cross work of Europe—just to jmmon suffering humanity. America, ch, bloated, comfortable and money lutted, America that has made mon y out of this war, has given to pros •ate, bleeding, dying and agonized yi inanity just sixteen cents per \pita. It is humilating. It is shameful, it • disgraceful and outrageous. Some w have done more than their share, it. the rest of'us are just slackers— •nt s all. We've lately learned to k and up when the national amhem is LIVED 1 IMS MID DREAD ONLY Spent over SI,COO 'Trying to Get Relief From Chronic Dyspep sia—Takes 1 anlac and Gains Nine Pounds. • I told my husband that my Tanlac was out and that I just haa to go to Birmingham to get me another bot tle, as 1 wouldn’t be without it for any amount of money, and that is why I am here today,” said Mrs. H. B. Bar rett when she called at Jacobs’ drug store in Birmingham recently to get her second bottle. Mrs. Barrett resides a* Republic, a suburb of Birmingham, and is well known. "I have only taken one bottle of Tanlac and have, gained nine pounds. Yes, sir, this Tanlac has done me more good than all the medicines I have ever taken. During the past four teen years I have spent more than SI,OOO trying to get well of a com plaint that was gradually sapping my strength. “For the past four, years I have lived almost entirely on milk and bread and finally that got so it went against me. I dared not eat meat or vegetables of any kind, and if I did, I would suffer for hours afterwards. “I had chronic dyspepsia, so I was told, and nothing prescribed for me brought any relief. I rarely ever went to the table, because even the sight of food or to smell it cooking would 1 nauseate me. I had a bad taste in my mouth and nothing I ate tasted right. I had always been healthy and a wo man who looked after her household duties, but since having this trouble I got so weak I could not do my house work and had to have help. “I would have awful pains in my back and was nervous and could not sleep’well. When I heard of this Tan lac it sounded so good I thought I would try it, because I was ready to try anything that I thought would help me. I was never so surprised in my life; it helped me right from the start, the medicine seemed to take hold right at once and I could just feel myself getting better from day to day. Before I had finished my first bottle I got so I could eat anything put on the table and could hardly wait for meal time to come. I certainly bless the day I got this medicine, for I believe it has added years to my life. Oh! I feel so much better and sleep so much better and am not nervous like I was. Just think, I have actually played, to remember that we have a flag that stands for great ideals, but it’s all on the outside so far. The heart hasn’t moved. True, the Jtears may come to the eyes, tbe gulp to the throat and the blood tingle—but not enough to propel the hand to the checkbook and send in just a dollar or so to feed, or heal or succor some woman or child who is going through the valley of the shadow. We like to tell ourselves that the world loves us, that we are a great people, that we are big-hearted and generous, that we do this and that and that our .entry into the war is to bring about the millennium on earth. Maybe so —after awhile when the trains of our own wounded start back from the front, when the cripples of out own legions crawl off at the* sta tions where months before they left with such high reslove, when from across the sea our own next of kin Cry to us and Oilrse us and demand we at least bind their wounds —when these things that may cause the clear seeing and the sitters in judgment among the nations of the earth to for give us for what we have not done in all these three awful years that are just about gone. It’s money—money-money. Your money, my money, that bank's money, that working man's money, this mil lionaire's money—it’s all needed. The word has gone out! "Give 'till it hurts then really starl to give.” That’s us. That’s America —Georgia —Macon. You and I have not the right to enjoy one single luxury, one little pleasure of any sort that costs as much as a ftve-cent piece while the American Red Cross needs a dollar, or can find a place to spend a dollar. That's the lesson America’s got to learn. God grant she’ll learn it before the blood of her own sons calls out of the ground in imprecations on her head and her negligent heart. It is 1 not too late to do for them what we should have done for sons of other nations while our coffers were run i ning over with the gold wrung from | the heart agony of their awful neces i sity._ , | And all it asks is money—the eheap j est and easiest, the most valueless commodity in the possession of any , human being—The Macon Daily Tel eersph. -I THE e-\RTOW TRICUNE-THt' CAR TEF.SV!

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once a week invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freezone, which the moment a few drops are applied to any corn or callus the soreness is relieved and soon the entire corn or callus, root and all, lifts off with the fingers. 1 Freezone dries the moment it is ap plied, and simply shrivels the corn or callus without inflaming or even ir ritating the sourrounding tissue or skin. A small bottle of freezone wiil cost very little at any of the drug stores, but will positively rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn or hardened callus. If your druggist hasn’t any freezone he can get it at any wholesale drug house for you. (advt.)
