SUMMER STYLES IN NEW WINTER HATS HEADS OF RED CjROSS FEW SOLDIERS GET FURLOUGHS A Gift For Your Friend In the Country Tor the farmer or suburbanite and his wife write down a subscription for THE. COUNTRY GENTLEMAN a weeKly reminder of you. A Year for A Dollar gallant officer aids Woman to carry load A' little woman' was bravely through the deep snow, carrying two, of those tmndlgs that somehow suggest that they contain material for army shirts. There was another bundle, probably the result of a Christmas shopping, trip, and Intended for the only boy, wearing Uncle Sam's uniform ami ready to fight for his country.

The load is almoet too heavy to carry. The bundles are deposited i snow, for the little woman has to "get her breath." Along comes a neatly-dressed officer of the army. He salutes. "Permit me, madame," he suys in a voice that at once suggests kind-heartedness and strength, "to carry the bundles for you." The little woman looks surprised. One can see, she is only too willing" to accept the offer, but she seems to be just alittle too proud.

"I thank 'you so much, but I can manage it all right." But by that time the bundles Send us one dollar, and on Christmas Day your friend will receive a card of notification in your name.

Infantry Military Band Only Men Living In Trolley Range May Go Home, Consolation In Cheer Ctyb Christmas Plans. WORK OF ILLINOIS COUNTY "Aunt Ruth," of the Courier-Journal, recently sent to Aloha Clu'b members an appeal in behalf ot the Courier-Journal Camp Zachary Taylor Christmas Cheer Club. Anions the many responses re-reived, the following in a juvenile handwriting seems especially noteworthy: Millersburg, December 9, 1917. Dear Aunt Ruth: I am goingsto school at Millersburg Military School and mother got 3Tour letter, but sent it on to me, so 1 am sending you- some stamps (44 cents) fur the soldiers. Yours truly.

D. T. BOHON. Gen. W.

E. Wilder's estimate that only 25 per cent, of the soldiers at Camp Zachary Taylor would be granted furloughs for Christmas seems likely to be over, rather than under, the actual figures as a result of an order issued yesterday by the War Department to the effect that the men of the National Army will not be given Christmas furloughs unless they live within trolley- distance of -their cantonments. Secretary of War Baker in explaining this order, said that a genera! leave of absence would have an injurious effect on camp discipline and would throw an unnecessary burden on the railroads. At some cantonments no Christmas furloughs will be granted. The disappointment which this announcement had on those who had applied for furloughs was modified greatly by knowledge of the Christmas celebration which will be hold at the camp by the Courier-Journal Christmas Cheer Club.

Fine Community Response. Monroe county, Illinois, has responded magnificently to the offer lor co-operation in the task of briagjng cheer to the boys at Camp Zachary Taylor. The leaders of the campaign in that community adopted as their slogan, "A present for every boy from Monroe co'uifcy," and, judging by a letter received yesterday from the Columbus, 111., Star, published by George W. Smith, this, slogan has lived up Air. Smith' letter is published in full, as it may serve as an inspiration and an example to others: AVill forward eighty-one presents this week to the Courier-Journal's Camp Zazhary Christmas Cheer Club.

"Will also send you a few boxes, for boys who may not be as fortunate as the Monroe county boyr. These eighty-one boxes include a present for every boy drafted from Monroe county. Thmus far we have collected about $100 for the fund for the Monroe county boys, and subscriptions are still coming in. We spread your first announcement in every city, village and hamlet in Mo-nrcie county and the responses from eveiy part of the county are satisfactory. It is possible that I inay have enough money left to send you C3ah remittance, and I will do so If there is a surplus.

Let me tell you what happened to-day: "When I came home from the office later "than usual because of some spe cial work, 1 heard voices in my living room. With fatch key poteed I listened.

"What do I care," I heard the woman, Soma Luboff, saying-, "for your silly American conventions! Your stupid mar riage what it is to me? No I won't hush! I am an artiste; I shall not be judged by common standards. You ire an artist, too. Paul Dansirni- you have the artist's soul, and you are letting it be crushed by commercial Ideas and by this American wife of yours!

Paul came to me took me in his arms with a protecting sweep. lOised me quickly, and ns he stepped back focing the woman again, motioned me to leave the room.

I declined, however, and quietly stood my ground. It seemed to anger Miss Luboff, whose strong point is her weakness of self-control. "Ah-ha! The American wife appears at the dramatic moment!" she el 1 1 et he A merle a wi 1 earn lesson from us Europeans!

Gaunt conferred with the ward committeemen of the Republic an organization and to-morrow after noon will confer with the ward committeemen of the Democratic organization. These men will name the precinct who will select the block workers, one from each party organization, who wlil call at every home. Inside the section bounded by Preston and Tenth streets and Broadway and the river, an organization ot duu men is being formed by Thomas FlOvd Smith anrl Guv K. Wnrren which will canvass the manufacturing concerns and business houses. Preparations for beginning the campaign in the county are going lorward without reeard to weather conditions.

It is proposed by Marvin Lewis, assistant manager for the county, that the schedule will be maintained if the weather permits; if not. that the canvass will be made as soon as the workers can make the rounds, even if it is carried on into the New "Year. Mr. Lewis was host at a luncheon on Tuesday at the Pen-dennis Club, at which Mrs. Thomas Floyd Smith, of Glen view.

Major General of the campaign in the county, was present, with the four Brigadier Generals, who are Mrs. Charles W. Allen, of Glen.view, First magisterial district: Mrs. J. C.

Alcock Jefferson-town, Second district: Mrs. W. Bailey Price. Audubon Park. Third district, and Miss Corrlne R.

Letters have gone out to the ministers of the city and the county asking them to preach Red Cross sermons next Sunday, and pi-ovisions have been made to have lieutenants stationed at churches next Sunday to present applications to members of the congregations. Rallies are to be held this week at points in the county and will be addressed by good speakers and supplies distributed to workers. In both city and county there is a great deal of detail work being dene which will show next week in the perfected organization. from Monroe county." and that has already been accomplished.

I hope that the venture may be one grand and glorious success. Officers Named To Co-operate. Gen. Wilder yesterday appointed a committee of fifteen officers at Camp Zachary Taylor to co-operate with the Courier-Journal Camp Zachary Taylor Christmas Cheer Club in completing arrangements for the Christmas celebration. Gen.

Wilder also designated the commanding officers of the various companies at the camp to assist the Christmas Cheer Club on Christmas eve in the distribution of gifts from the Christmas treee at the various barracks. In making up this list It was found that there were 22 companies represented. Therefore, 228 Christmas trees will be required for the barracks. In addition to those at the barracks, approximately twenty- hve. trees will be needed tor the base hospital.

Public Can't Attend. The. Courier-Journal has 'received many' Inquiries about admitting the general public on the night of the Christmas celebration. Only those will be admitted who hoid special passes. Obviously it would be impracticable for the officers at the camp to admit the general public to the barracks, and only the members of the Courier-Journal Camp Zach ary Taylor Christmas Cheer Club and a tew prominent citizens who will participate in the work will be admitted to the camp.

He had come to "the citv for the first time in the forty-eight years' of his existence "to look fer Santa Claua." Because of his belated curiosity he landed wfthin the walls of the jail to remain 'five days. His manner and his appearance his overcoat, split from collar to lower hem and the rents in his trousers revealing a perfect flesh color led an officer to pick him up as a vagrant.

When the policeman spied the giant peering into a window of a 10-cent store, heard his quiet chuckle and beheld a fast-gathering crowd gazing in wonder at the freakish-looking man, he rang for the "wason." "My maw would like, to all this," he remarked, as he felt the clutch of the policeman's hand. Continuing to smile he was led away quietly, protesting "nobody had ever mistreated maw's youngest boy." After that he went, to jail and after that he made fun for the othpr in mates by insisting that a cell 7x9 was too all-fired small- for anybody to live in. "When the time arrived to release him shoes and clothing had to be provided for "maw's boy." Prisoners made for him a pair of trousers, built only to cover. No. 12 shoes were placed on a pair of corn-flaked, cal-lous-incrusted feet.

A jail-made hat, refusing to n't his enormous head, and his top-coat, mended with binder twine, completed his attire. He had seen Santa Claus. He was going home to "maw."

SILVER THIMBLE FUND IS FORMED TO AID RED CROSS A Silver Thimble Fund has been or ganized at Red Cross headquarters on Guthrie street in the hope that the result will be as successful as the one in England. Miss H. E.

Hope Clark, of Wllbedon, England, conceived the idea of the silver thimble fund, its purpose being for every home t'o give its discarded article's, such as old Jewelry, coins, thimbles and napkin rings, in fact, anything or either gold or silver, that could be melted and turned into money. That the fund in England was a success is proven by the seven motor ambulances, five motor hospital hoats. one disinfector, the $11,150 for the Star and Garter fund and the i60.00D for wounded sailors and soldiers contributed during the second year of the war. The motto chosen by the Red Cross officers is "Nothing too largu and nothing too small." Those who find mailing their contributions more convenient will address packages to Mrs. Marshall Bullitt, Silver Thimble Fund, Red.

But before he ran off he put a big stone in it and pinned up the hole with three pine-needle pins. he hid behind a tree. And just in time, for Mr. Wolf got up. put his pipe away in his.
