A very pretty George Washington
reception was enjoyed by the members
of the First Methodist church, given
in honor of their pastor and wife, by

were met in the living room by the
chairman, Mrs. J. C. Massey, and her
committee, who were very attractive
in colonial costumes, and were intro-
duced to Rev. Mr. Barcus and Mrs.
Barcus. The officers of the missionary
society were stationed in the recep-
tion hall, where beautiful music was
furnished throughout the afternoon by
the new Edison, under the supervis-
ion of Mrs. Frank Putman. Decora-
tions appropriate to the occasion were
used in the dining room. The table
was made very attractive with a cen-
ter piece of miniature cherry tree and
with the ladies dressed as colonial
dames serving tea and wafers com-
pleted a very beautiful picture.

ill visit severe,! of
he county in
A reporter for the Herald dropped
in at the Red Cross work rooms Mon-
day afternoon just as Mrs. W. D. Tay-
lor had finished packing a large7 box-
of hospital goods which will be ships
ped to St. Louis for the army work.
The box contained 150 pajamas, 12
convalescent robes and 40 bed shirts.
These articles were sent in by the
auxiliary chapters in the county, some
of which are doing splendid work,
namely: Springtown, Aledo, Millsap
and Poolville.
The chapter has sent twenty-nire
boxes of hospital goods, gurglcAl dres-
sings and knitted articles to the army
boys since its organization, but there
is still room for more ladies in the
work rooms and the demand contin-
ues to come Jor the ladies to exert
themselves in making their shipments
as often and as large as possible.
Every Thursday the chapter sends
a box of knitted articles to Houston.
The last box contained 15 sweaters,
20 helmets, 16 pair wristlets and 50
pairs of socks. More than 500 pairs
of socks have been knitted and sent
to the boys in the army from Parker
county ladies.
The Red Cross belongs to ail ita
members and it is their privilege to
share in its work. Let every person
in this community feel that a mem-
bership in the Red Cross may mean
a return ticket from the front for
some soldier in our county. Exhibit
the Red Cross in your window, wear
your Red Cross button, show your col-
ors and your patriotism, be an Ameri-
can citizen and stand for justice, lib-
erty and humanity—do something to
help win the*war.
It is a privilege and honor to be a
member of the Red Cross. The feder-
al law makes the misuse of the name
or emblem of the American Red Cross
a misdemeanor and provides a penalty
of fine of $500 and imprisonment up
to one year.
The chapter has just received 65071
yards of gauze. This is to be made
up in surgical dressings, bandages,
wipes, etc. Think how much time and
work it will take to cut, fold and pre-
pare this amount of gauze, but it will
help win the war. Are you doing your
part?
The Girls’ Sewing Club, formerly a
social organization, has resolved it-
self into an auxiliary to the Red Cross
chapter, and is now doing serious
work meeting at the homes of mem-
bers every Saturday and knitting for
the soldiers. Miss Hilda Maddox is
instructor, with Mrs. Clarence Rogera,
chairman, and the following active
members: Mesdames Robert Jones,
Clarence Rogers, Temple Wall and
Lawrence Holland; Misses Hilda Mad-
dox, Courtney Hood, Zulette Butler,
Emma Carter and Wall.
Following the example of Dallas,
Mineral Wells and other places, an
auxiliary for Red Cross work among
the colored women is now being plan-
ned by the local chapter. Heretofore
this work has been neglected, although
individual work has been done by the
colored women, as at Anneta by Ella
Beatty; but a number of memberships
have been taken by the colored people
in Weatherford, and both the preach
el’s and teachers have been explaining
the work until now the time is consid-
ered ripe for organization into a work-
ing unit. Mattie Wilson, well known
and faithful servant to the while lad-
ies, is leading the movement among
her own people and working up the
sentiment of service to the govern-
ment along the lines of Red Cross
work.
A ruling has been promulgated by
the food administration permitting the
use of "Victory” products at all times,
.on meatless and wheatless days, pro-
vided these products are made accord-
ing to the following percentage of
wheat flour substitutes:
. Class 1—Bread and roils, 20'per cent.
Class 2—Sweet yeast dough goods,
33' 1-3 per cent. »
Class 3—(a) crackers, (b) biscuits,
cookies and ice cream cones, 33 1-3
per cent.
Class 4—(a) cakes, (b) pies, (c)
fried cakes, (d) pastry, 33 1-3 per
cent.
Class 5—Batter cakes, and waffles,
75 per cent.

When Alexander Hamilton, secre-
tary of the U. S. treasury, and beaut 1
ful Maria Reynolds met, it was a case
of love at first sight for both of them.
Their friendship grew into intimacy
and it was the primary cause of Ham-
ilton’s death in a duel at the'tTands of
Aaron Burr, senator from New York
state and candidate for a presidential
nomination. The whole story of Ham-
ilton and Mrs. Reynolds and the fam-
ous duel between Hamilton 'and Burr
-is fascinatingly told in “The Beautiful
Mrs. Reynolds,” a new World picture
in which these four stars appears—
Carlyle Blackwell, June Elvidge, Eve-
