His Death a Great Loss to the Row

Correspondence of The Robesonian.
Rowland. Nov. 1. No greater loss
could have been sustained by our com

otv, r,f Rpv. H. J. Mills, of mfluen-
a with complications, on October 24th.
Born at Mayesville, fc. -., in iod,
Mr Mills graduated at uawason col
lege, took a theological course in a
seminary, and entered upon the work
of the Presbyterian ministry. He mar
ried Miss Hannah McCutchen ot South
Carolina, who, with tnree sman
daughters, survives. For the past
five yars Mr. Mills had been pastor
of the R6wland and Ashpole churches.
He was a man of intense energy, large
sympathy, passionately devoted to his
Master's work, and was greatly be
Wpd bv all who knew him. At the
time of his death he was serving as
of the Liberty Loan com
mittee. He easily stood first in the
affections of the people of the commu
nity, without regard to race or creed
and no man will be missed so much
as he. ,

tablish hutment and general war relief
work with the American troops.
MWe will do all we can to fill $bl
demand," said Commander Booth when
discussing the approaching United
War Work Campaign, "and the heed
Itself should impress the Americas
public all the more with the absolute
necessity for sustaining and enlarging
the war relief work of the seven or
ganizations, besides the noble Red
Cross, now merged for a drive for
funds. Each is a vital cog in a vast
machine for human relief, and each is
indlspensible, serving its particular
elements in its own way.
"The Salvation Army was born in'
hardship, reared in privation and
trained to every phase of human mis
ery and how to cope with it Perhaps
that accounts in some degree for the
success our work has attained and for
which we are thankful.
"We are of the common people, and
we toil on a practical basis. We learn
ed the lesson of how to do it in thsj
Boer war, when we stood at the sld
of Britain's troops and weathered it
out to the end. We have been tried
by fire, and the mothers and fathers
of America, as In other countries, trust
the Salvation Army to do the thing
they would like to do for their men if
they but had the chance.
"With 1,210 trained workers at the
front, operating from 420 huts and
dugouts, the Salvation Army is doing,
has done and will continue to do its
best for the cause of humanity and
Liberty."
$170,500,000 "for the boys over there"
during the week of November 11-18.
Through diocesan, county and parish
organizations, the rallying of one
youngster for every man who has gone
to war in every community is already
under way. By their own earnings.
and not by contributions, it is expect
ed that these sturdy little sponsors
for the boys abroad will each raise at
least five dollars for the joint wel
fare work of the Y. M. C. A., Y. W.
C. A., National Catholic War Coun
cil, including the Knights of Colum
bus, War Camp Community Service,
Jewish Welfare Board. American Li
brary Association an,d Salvation. Army.
Boys and giris in every Catholic
parish throughout the United States
are already being picked to represent
each fighting man who has left their
church for the front In every home
that flies a service flag little brothers
and sisters, sons and daughters, are
eagerly volunteering to look out for
the share of their family fighter in the
huge joint welfare campaign for all
the boys abroad.

Mask Against Influenza
!
As a means of preventing the spread of inflnenza the North.
Carolina State Board of Health strongly urges that doctors,
nurses and others attending patients sick with this disease wear
a mask over the month and nose. The manner of wearing im
shown in the above picture. "Hie mask should be made accord
ing to Bed Cross directions, in size about eight by five inches,
HMMjftjng of four layers of fine mesh gauze, or buttereloth. Do
not use coarse mesh gauze, as experiments have shown that pro
tection is not given even when as many as eight layers of tha
coarse mesh are used. The mask may be sterilized by placing
in boiling water for a few minutes and used over and over again.
The same side should always be worn next the face and for this
purpose one side should be marked, say with a black thread.
The precaution is simple, costs almost nothing, and is most
effective. PLACE A MASK OVER YOUR MOUTH AND
NOSE AND HELP THE SICK OF YOUR COMMUNITY,
CAREFULLY WASHING YOUR HANDS AFTER ATTEND
ING EACH PERSON. IN DOING THIS THE CHANCES OF
INFECTION ABE PRACTICALLY NONE.
