The people of the United States have | responded generously to many calls on behalf of the American soldiers. They have contributed to his comfort and his recreation from the time he enter ed a training camp to the time he re turned to his home; they have helped to keep him warm, to provide him with delicacies and. in innumerable instan ces, to save his life. Now they afe being asked to respond to one more call, to "see him clean through." A large part of the $15, 000.000 fund being asked for by the Red Cross in connection with the Third Roll Call will be used for the comple tion of its service to the sick and woun ded men in our military hospitals and to their families at home. The rest of it will be used to send medical mis sions to various countries of the near east wkero appalling conditions pre vail. I3ut this is probably the last time the American Red Cross will ask for any thing for America's fighting men. Its luture calls will be in the nature of membership campaigns which will serve to carry on the permanent work of the organization in the field of pub lic health, social service and disaster relief," ami. unless some future war makes a change of policy necessary, this Is the last call the Red Cross will make on the people for funds for war work. In oth.er words, this is the laRt chance thv? American people will Iravo to ad minister to the comfort of the men who were wounded at Chateau Thierry and in the Argonne Forest; the last chanre to make life in the hospitals hearahle for them and to set -their minds at rest about the welfare of their families at home. It is a call to which no real Ameri can will turn a deaf ear; a chance which nil real Americans will wel come gladly. THE FRANKLIN TIMES $1.50 Per Year in Advfuice.

It insures honest profits and makes them permanent. "The message of the U. S. Department of Labor to merchants and manufactur ers and to all progressive American business men is to advertise. 4 "Tell the public about your goods. The consum er has plenty of money. He is willing to spend It and we want him to spend it on American made products. The easiest, quickest and most economical way in which this can be accom plished is by advertising. Start your campaign right The Red Cross, "Por the purpose of translating the Red Cross vision into reality, people are more-tiecessary than money, and the Red Cross during the war revealed an unexampled capacity tor drawing people into combined service. The people responded because they were patriotic. The present summons to membership is still a call to patriot Ism, enlightened patriotism. It is an imperfect patriotism which remains lethargic until the bugle blows for war. He who intelligently loves his country in war wUl persistently love it is worth dying Nbffl'lf vrniW . ?

Flirtiny With Death. i One of the most pathetic poisoning j eases in?1 the history of this country has : jusi I" on brought to~a~happy close "by | the recovery of the innocent victims. A Detroit mother, in a moment of insanity or otherwise, administered deadly merctfry to her two Jlttle (laugh iters with the intention of ending their existence. [physician?and are now callling for the.mother who is behind iron bars I The lessoui Is one which should be taken into every home. There is entirely too much freedom in the manner in which people are per mitted to purchase drugs of a poison ous nature. In a majority of homes you can find these poisons standing on pantry shel ves. in bath rooms, or in other places. Invariably they are wtthin the roach of children who know not that death lftrks in those innocent looking bottles. It is the acme of carelessness, and comes dangerously near to criminali ty. Death dealing drugs should not be {purchased at will. They should bo j accessible only through the medium of a practicing physician, and then [should be kept under lock-and key. The person who employs these drugs with criminal intern should meet with swift and drastic punishment com mensurate with the crime, and no maud lin sentiment should be permitted to interfere. Flirting with death has become en tirely too freQuent in this country. It Is time for the punishment to fit the crime. Tobacco Selling High.
