The war organization to which ev-
try American must belong Is the
Council of Defense. Every American
y. ill hold membership in that organ-
isation by virtue of his citizenship
and the adding of his name to the
roll of the Community Council. The
purpose of the organization Is to get
(ili the other people Into another
crowd, after which everybody will be
allowed to guess what will happen.
America is to be mobilized in order
to protect the interests of Americans
and the Community Council of De-
fense is the name of the organiza-
tion under which the work is being
done.
The Community Council of Defense
Is a newly formed and forming or-
ganization in Bell County. It owes
Its authority to the County Council
which is acting under instructions
from the State Council, the entire
fabric being woven by the Council of
National Defense under direct super-
vision of the war department. The
Community Council of Defense is,
therefore, an integral part of the war
department of the United States and
should be so regarded by the persons
having authority In Community Coun-
cils.
The Community Councils must
conform to the suggestions and in-
structions of the war department, as
communicated by the National Coun-
cil, subject to circumstances and con-
ditions involved in the local situa-
tion. The work of the local must be
entered into with all the seriousness
of war department business, details
of operation' being modified only as
occasion demands.
The County Council of Defense has
biased the way for the latest devel-
opment of the organization, having
given much time and constructive
thought to the details involved in
perfecting the system with a view to
protecting the interests of our peo-
ple and our government and prevent-
ing the success of the enemy propa-
ganda.
The State Council has had to feel
Its way along the unbeaten paths un-
til from out the tangle of under-
growth has sprung well ordered ways
along which the populace may find
safe conduct in the business of win-
ning the war.
The Council of National Defense is
A branch of the war work of the gov-
ernment having to do with maintain-
ing hiorale of the citizenship and co-
ordinating the Intricacies of allied but
conflicting bodies engaged in waging
campaigns In promotion of govern-
ment war work. All activities of the
people are to be taken over and con-
ducted under the auspices of this de-
partment of the national government.
The people need to know more and
more of the nature of the tasks set
for them by the government, and,
with that idea in view, they should
await with Interest the forming of a
District Council of Defense In Tem-
ple, Friday, Aug.ust 30. Persons In
Milam, San Saba, Mills, Hamilton and
Coryell counties are asked to give
heed to this notice.

Luke Mel,uke Says.
Thero are cases In which a girl's
face Is her fortune. And there are
eases in which a girl's face is her
misfortune.
A girl may have good features and
fine eyes. Hut if she hag paint on
her cheeks a man won't notice any-
thing but the paint.
Men are Just as vain as women.
Address a letter to: "The Hand-
somest Man In Town," and mail It
in any town, and It will never get
past the Tostmaster. He'll open It
himself.
Another Hellbound hypocrite Is

ho won't perform any manual labor
on Sunday, but who gets mad If his
wife doesn't slave all day and get
him up a big dinner.
If the Suffs ever win In New York,
we expect they will get even with the
opposition by changing the name of
the place to "Womanhattan."
A woman is afraid of a mouse. But
that doesn't keep her from express-
ing her contempt for her husband
because he is such a coward that he
is afraid of a burglar.
Turn about is fair play. The Talm
Reach suits enable the girls to see

Journey forth, on impulse or sugges-
tion, and If I journey south or nQrth,

time I tour the earth, where'er I may
determine. I thank the gods that ruled
my birth that I am not a German I'd
hate to have my course laid down by
some tinhorn official, to tremble at a
kaiser's frown rebuking and judicial.
I'd hato to have to giga my name to
forty kinds of papers, before allowed
to play my game and cut my useful
capers. I'd hate to come when princes
call and go when they demand it; that
sort of thing would stir my gall—me-
thinks I couldn't stand it. Here we aro
free to live our lives with no avenger
Hearing; we run up bills and beat our
wives and no one's interfering. No
cheap policeman comes along and puis

mortal song I ridiculed a ruler, My
little home my castle Is, where rhyth-
mic storms are brfwlng; no punk In-
spector thrusts his phlt Inside to see
what's doing. But If the kaiser comes
to reign, from o'er the Trusslan border
I will not dare to chant a strain, with-

About the fifth day the Bride Is
married she begins visualizing the
presents she will receive on her Sliver
Wedding anniversary and wonders if
she will have room for them on the
buffet and In the china closet.
Maybe it has never occurred to
you that the excuses you offer your
wife when you get In at 2 a. m.
woudn't satisfy you If she c'feied
them when she got in at 2 a. in.
The old-fashioned woman who be-
lieved that her account at tho bank

checks in her checkbook now has a

When I was milking the cow this
morning and Jubilee was setting with
his mouth open so as to be ready to
get his an when I would send a skwirt
his way and Tot and Peenuts was
leening through the manure hole
making up what they was going to do
vacation whltch is a long way off
yet my father came In and patted the
cow on the back by the tall and she
brung her hind leg up and kicked the
milk pail agenst the manger and me
off the stool and missed my father
about a quarter of an inch when sho
straghtened It out and he backed up
so sudden that he fell over the milk
pail that had rolled around behind
him and when he picked himself up
and felt of himself he looked at the
stable and at me and ho said this
stable is a mess, why don't you keep
It cleaner, and I said because I was
using the shuvvle down in the raveen
bilding a damn and It was old and
rotten and It busted In two. and he
said You get another shuvvle at the
store and don't ever let me ketch
this stable tn this condition agane or
someone will get a walloping.
When he had gone In to put on some
more pants and go to work Yot an 1
Peenuts put their faces In tho ma-
nure hole and they said It was great
to see the way he went down and his
heels went up and I got up to thi?
manure hole and Yot got down on the
ground out In the alley and showed
ho how he done It, because he done
it behind me and I did not see it.
It was certainly good. It was a won-
der he did not wallop me for bustinj,'
the shuvvle, but I did not know what
else to say, and I could not of said
anything else without lying and Ism
no lire. Wo made our cow hump her-
self to the pasture and coming back
we dumb up on old maid Parmer's

YOUR HEALTH
By ANDREW T. CURRIER, M.D.
Pre-natal Instruction of Mother*.
Prf ffatal IiuttuetUm of Mother».
We have only begun to consider
the question of diaet&e as the re-
sult of the terrible war tn which all
the world la now engaged.
We see how It has not only
Slaughtered millions of man, but
haa depopulated country after coun-
try.
We can as yet scarcely realize the
ghastly effect it has had upon cora-
Inunitlee where the civil popula-
tion Is worn and weakened with
woe and anxiety, and where there
(s, and will continue to be, hunger,
thirst and nakedness.
Is there any power in medicine
pr sanitation which will stay it?
Will there be doctors and grave
Jiggers enough to go around?
The mind reels at the prospect
rhe men who are being killed and
rallded are the Yirile, the active,
e reproducers.
But suppose there was a chance
fbr reproduction; the women are
Piled to the brim with hatred, bit-
terness, with suffering of every de-
Icriptlon—what is the chance for
Ihetr unborn offspring?
What will be thetr inevitable in-
heritance, physically and mentally?
Only recently has the importance of
Instructing expectant mothers In
Ihe hygiene of pregnancy been rec-
ognized as part of the duty of the
Health Department
What duty could more positively
fee paramount? No observant farm-
er needs to be told that his stock
drill bear better offspring if they
tro well eared for when pregnant,
lhan If they are neglected or
Mrased.
Why should there bs a different
result when the pregnant female is
It woman?
From tha moment a woman en-
ters the pregnant state, she enters
it new condition of being, physio-
logical, it is true, but as liable to
miahaps and derangement as the
performance of any other function
—digestion or assimilation, for in-
stance.
The mother shares her blood cur-
rent with her unborn child, and
whatever It contains is contributed
to tho child's life.
An unhealthy mother in body,
mind, or morals, cannot help im-
pressing upon her child more or
less of her peculiarities.
Wherefore, disease or emotional
shock, or strain, of any kind, ia
quickly communicated to her child,
often with a fatal result
A pregnant woman should realise
not only that she is carrying a
child whiqh Is going to belong to
her, but also to the state and to
the world.
If she has thla feeling, she will
try very hard to take proper car#
of herself.
At her dally task she will spur*
herself as much as possible for the
sake of her child; she will eat food
that can be readily digested so that
her child - will have its proper
share; she will try to get plenty of
sleep; she will try to avoid worry,
and exposure to wet and cold; she
will not give way to anger, fear
and hatred; and she will often con*,
slder that she Is the only protector
her child can have while she I*
carrying him within her body.
If women would realize this
sacred trust how much more they I
would get from this most beautiful'
of all physiological conditions, and i
thoy would bring into tho world*
children who would not be handi-
capped by an inheritance which
would cripple them more or leaa
for life.
Pitiable, indeed, is the lot of tha
war baby, with all that is included
In the thought; and how thankful
American women, who are preg-
nant, should be that they have been
spared many of the ills which their
less fortunate sisters, abroad, havo
had to bear!

might have got me a licking, there mine and mine Is pretty het'iy too,

outside of that they have not got at us fellas when we get close up.
enough sense to put a all day sucker When we got through looking at her
in their face and say nothing, I told
my mother once that females was not
so very brite and she said that judging
from the kinds of men they married
she guessed I was right, but It does
not take mutch sense to get school
lessons for I can do it easy; they are
all down in the books and all a felta
has to do is get them.
When school let out some of us
wanted to go back of the pore house
and feel of the river to see if it was
warm yet, but all of us wanted to go
and see l'eenuts calf, so wo all did
and we all felt Its legs and looked
in its eyes and mouth and hefted it
and then I said I did not think it was
as full blooded as my calf and Tee-
nuts said it was full bloodeder, and I
said it wasn't and that I could lick
any one that said It was, so then they
all looked It over again and l'eenuts
said when he looked at it a little
closter that ho could see It was not
quite so full blooded as mine, and the
rest of the buntch eaid the same, but
Peenuts said his cow could lick mine,
and I said his cow could not lick an
all day sucker and, he said he would
prove it to me to morrow when we
got them out to the pasture together,
so then I went over and felt of his
cow's muskel and sized her up and I
gues.t mine can lick hls'n, because
mine's horns Is more pointy and hisn's
horns is bent in towardst her face so
that If my cow was to bunt her and
her horns was to bend she would
hook herself. I do not know if we
can get them to fight but If we can
we ought to have a pretty good time
and a fella don't have many good
times when It ain't vacation.
When we had all looked Peenutses
cow all over and sized her up we all
went out to the pasture to look at
we started to bring her homo because
there was not anything to do out
there, and when we was going across
the vacant lot with her wo saw some-
one setting In old maid Parmer's
winndo and we went over and clumb
up the fence and it was my unkd anil
lier, and I near fell off the fence again
and so did the others and she was sew-
ing and my unkel said to her Do you
work all the time, and she said every-
bordy that is worth while works, and
I said my unkel got a Job with a ser-
kus once and he had not worked a
week when they stole his pants off of
him without him knowing it, and I told
my unkel to tell her about It, and
she got red and my unked reached
out of the winndo and gave me a push
in the face that sent me off the
fence and told me to chase myself so I
went home and milked and at suppt-r
he said what I said to old maid Parmer
and him and they all gave him the
laugh and I guess that made him
sore because he thought I would get
walloped and didn't and then I said
that old maid Parmer said that anyone
that was worth anything worked, and-
my mother said she was very Intelli-
gent, and my unkel said a swear
word and left the table, and my fa-
ther made me go to bed. When you
are a boy In short pants you get
soaked If you are right or wrong, so
I pulled Jubilee up and we went to
bed, and I didn't care. I didn't pray.
