HELEN NOTES.
A beautiful entertainment was
given by the Junior Red Cross of
the Helen Public school, at the
auditorrium, last Friday night to
a large and appreciative’audience.
Mrs. Galloway was chairman with
her committee, Mrs. McEwen and
Mrs. Perley deserve great credit
for the success, as it was a finan¬
cial, social and artistic success.
After the serious strain of the war
all were prepared for just such rec¬
reation and laughter. It proved to
be the psychological reconstruction
simply the balanced ration.
Thirty dollars was realized with
which the Juuiors’ propose to pre¬
sent a Service Flag to the district,
which will be presented later with
appiopriate exercises. This is a
one hundred per cent organization
for reconstruction.
The public school children will
observe their annual Arbor Day on
the 2ist instant with a program
befitting the occasion. Amongst
the most important numbers wiilbe
an address by Hon. Ben Smith,
mayor, and Mrs. A. P. Perley,
Jr., reconstruction chairman of
National Council of Defense. The
White county boys who have paid
the supreme sacrifice will be mem¬
orialized by a tree being planted.
What more fitting memorial than
a tree to keep their memory fresh
and green; besides forest played
such an important part in the late
war. One of the greatest battles
being in Argonne Forest.
We had the pleasure of a visit
from the Agricultural Demonstra¬
tor talk upon ‘‘Boys and Girls
Club” work which struck a res¬
ponsive chord; several have
bought pigs before organization is
perfected, and next fall at the fair
in Cleveland our boys and girls
will be able to celebrate Achieve¬
ment Day with club songs and
yells.
A cordial invitation is extended
to our Cleveland friends and board
education to join us in our
Arbor Day exercises, Friday aist.

Mr. J'as. P. Davidson,

Dear Jim :
After leaving a port in Europe
and sailing nine days on the sea
we inndeb at New York City Jan.
16' We we to Camp Merritt
where we stayed two days, and in
the maantime we were run through
the delousing station. We were
then afforded the pleasure of visit¬
ing the snow clad states of New
York, New Jersey, and Penn.,
passing through Ohio, Indium and
Illinois. We crossed the Mississip¬
pi and Missouri rivers, and looked
upon the beautiful ' farms of Iowa
and Missouri—some of the best
farming lands of the world.
A time of a soldier’s life was af¬
forded us when we reached Kan¬
sas City. We were met at the
station by a’ number of fancy
young ladies, where an incessant
kissing began. This was the first
time we had been welcomed by
kisses. Even our aged Captain
was given a spirit of renewed ac¬
tivity when lie was embraced and
osculated by one of these fair dam¬
sels who so heartily greeted us.
We are now in the best quarters
we ever had, and have a nice place
to soldier.
The most attractive thing I saw
.overseas was the Scotch Highland¬
ers Soldiers whom the Germans re¬
garded iif, “Ludips f.n>m T I Tell”. I
was in England for nearly a
month, but did not get to visit
London. 1 will leave it for some
one else to tell how France is, and
how that European country is, and
bow we enjoyed it “over there,”
and so on.
I didn’t just get sea-sick coming
back—I think I got ocean-sick, and
I haven’t felt good since. 1 guess
I will ba here for some time, all
without dependants. Write to me.

COMMUNICATED
My Dear Mr Editor :
Will you allow me space in your
paper to say a few words in regard
to Oddfellovvship, as we noticed
that a friend in the vicinity of
Leaf, Ga., seems somewhat uneasy
that the Oddfellows will do their
duty, as he is calling, their atten¬
tion to the case of Mrs. E. T. Bar¬
rett.
We, as Oddfellow, wish to ad¬
vise him that this is our duty, that
we always look after. We do not
forget about such business and
wait'for someobe on the outside to
call our attention to it. I think
that the Independent Order of
Oddfellows is one of the greatest
secret orders; it is founded on the
three greatest principles in the
world, which is Friendship, Love
and Truth. Of course it is like
other orders, sometimes it gets
men into its ■ membership it dosn’t
want, but so far as the Lodge
knows, they only except the best,
upright men of the country, and I
think by so doing that the lodge
can manage their business without
having our outside friend to help
us, aird we want to see if he shiws
the widow as much sympathy as
the Oddfellows. It does not only
rest with the Oddfellows, but every
man who feels it his' Christian
duty to do so.
Oddfellow.
