SUGGESTIONS FOR CHRISTMAS PACKETS FOR OUR SOLDIERS. By Christmas the United States will Save more than 1,000,000 men under arms, and everyone will be eager to help in giving them Christinas cheer. No matter how generous a supply of gifts some of the men may receive irom families and friends, it is be lieved that all Red Cross members will want to unite hi sending to each man a Christmas packet filled with good things and good will. In order that the men may be equal ly remembered and yet that there may be a pleasing variety in the contents, the following suggestions are made for preparing and assembling the Christ mas parcels: General Suggestions. 1. Nothing should go in them which r ill not keep fresh from the time of packing until Christmas. 2. Dried fruits and other food pro ducts should be jiacked in small tin tv wooden boxes, one-quarter to one self pound size. 3. Hard candy, including chocolate, would probably be safe in tin foil or heavy cardboard, but no soft choco lates nor anything that could possibly be crushed should be used, as the oth er contents oi-the package might be spoiled thereby. 4. Several dainties packed in ob -1 ng jjn boxes each holding a quarter of a pound, will provide a better vari ety for a packet than a larger quantity *f a single confection. 5. Xo liquids nor articles packed in MAMMA! DON'T YOU SEE YOUR CHILD IS SICK, CONSTIPATED Look at Tongue! Move Poisons From Liver and Bowels at Once. .Mother! Your child isn't natuially , cross and peevish. See if tongue is j coated; this is a sure sign its little ! stomach, liver and bowels need a I cleansing at once. When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn’t eat, sleep or act naturally, has stem s’ cli-ache, diarrhoea, remember, a gen tle liver and bowel cleansing should always be the first treatment given. Nothing equals “California Syrup of Figs’’ for children’s ills; give a tea spoonful, and in a few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the system, and you have a well and playful child again. All children love this harmless, deli cious “fruit laxative,’’ and it never fails to effect a good “inside” cleans ing. Directions for babies, children of all ages and grown-ups are plainly on the bottle. Keep it handy in your home. A lit tle given today saves a sick child to morrow, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of “Cali fornia Syrup of Figs,” then look and see that it is made by the California Fig Syrup Cos.” —(advt.) Finishing a Telephone Talk Vlt is always good practice to close your telephone talk by saying “good ' bye.” ‘ If you hang up the receiver without doing so, the party to whom you are talking may continue to talk or at least remain at the telephone, wasting his time and keeping the line from being used by somebody else. The “good-bye” at the end of a telephone talk is an infallible signal to hang up the receiver without delay—it terminates the telephone talk graciously and effectively. 4 *. t ] When you telephone —smile! * . SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE (f^k\ . AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY glass should be placed in the package. G. For wrapping the gifts use a khaki-colored handkerchief, twenty seven inches square, and form the base of the packet by placing on the center of the handkerchief a pad of writing paper about seven by ten inches. 7. Select a variety of articles either from the suggested list (or according to individual wishes) to an amount not exceeding $1.50, and arrange them on the pad of paper so that the entire package shall be the width of the pad and approximately five or six inches high. -*? v 8. Wrap and tie with one-inejj red ribbon and place a Christmas card un der the bow of ribbon. A card bearing the greetings of the Chapter would be desirable. f. Wrap the parcel again in heavy, light-brown manilla paper, and tie se curely with red, green, or gilt cord, and use Christmas labels or American flags as desired. - List of Articles Suggested for Christ mas Packets. * Khaki-colored handkerchief, twen ty-seven inches square, for container; | ‘writing-paper pad, about 7 by 10 inches; envelopes; pencil; postals; ‘book fm paper covers); scrapbook, homemade, containing a good short storv, some jokes, etc.; electric torch; coni pass; playing cards; other games; tobacco; pipe and pipe cleaners; ti- papers; water-tight match box; chewing gum; sweet chocolate biscuits; fruited crackers; fruit cake; such as boy scouts use; mirror, steel; handkerchiefs, khaki colored; r.eckties; mouth organ; Red Cross checkerboard (this is a combination set of checkerboard, checkers, chess men, and dominoes made of heavy cardboard especially for the Red Cross and can be purchased after October lath for 5c apiece); preserved ginger; salted nuts; prunes; figs; dates; rais ins; hard candy; chocolate in tin foil; licorice; katch the Kiser (puzzle); mechanical puzzles (an assorted lot of twelve small' mechanical puzzles can be bought at the rate of twelve for 50c). r The articles which are marked with an asterisk will be purchased by the Led Cross Supply Bureau and can be bought from Chapters by the time Chapters are ready to pack the par cels. This announcement Is published early sc that those interested may be gathering funds for the purchasing of these packets and assembling the small articles to go in them. Chapters will receive directions from Division Managers as to the dates when packets should be shipped to France and also as to the dates when those intended for the home can tonments should be ready for distri bution. Money for these gifts is not to be taken from the Red Cross funds but should he contributed by .individuals for this specific purpose.—The Red Cross Bulletin, American Red Cross.
