Washington, Dec. 1.-THE fighting

by administration officials here as

The possession OF port where mu-

that would be acquired through the

cause. In the view OF the officials

we're making an aggressive attack.
Secretary Bryan conferred today
with Secretary Daniels over dispatches
from Rear Admiral Fletcher. Both

other foreigners would not be en-

not only, but has proved it's capacity
! to take calm counsel amidst the rapid
movement of affairs and deal with it's
own life in spirit of candor, right
eousness and comfy.
I'VE have seen the practical COM
pletion of the great work at the 18th

HIGH MEAT BILLS.
Butcher Tells Way in Which to Gut
Them Down.

In the Woman's Home Companion
a. retail butcher writes an article en-
titled, Reducing the Meat Bill in
which he shows how people who buy
the highpriced meat don't get the
best meat. He says that some of the
cheapest meats are the best He
of S4.63 and shows, item by item,
how the bill can be reduced to 1921
just by using cheaper cutsi which he
says are better cuts. After dealing
with the various kinds of steaks, in
which, by the way, he tells about the
steak that the butcher eats himself,
he goes on as follows about roasts
and chops.
"a roast of beef costing a dollar
or dollar and a half at the present
time is not much; hungry and
healthy family will probably finish
it in one meal You can readily eat
it in one meal. You can still enjoy
good roast beef, and surely for less
money, only buy the right cut. From
past observation the writer has-found
that nine out of ten customers ask for
the first cut of the rib roast. Of
course, they are the most expensive
cuts. The fifth, Sixth and shoulder
ribs are hardly in demand, and the
butcher has hard time Selling them.
These end ribs or shoulder ribs of
roast beef are not only considerably
cheaper to buy but are richer in food
value and nourishment. When buy
ing one of the three or four ribs of
beef, say, for instance, weighing five
pounds, you will find that you have
hardly sufficient meat left after it is
carefully trimmed and the bone taken
out. The difference in price between
the first cut on the rib and the last
two cuts is at least six cents per
pound; and when you ask for a shout
der rib roast. ask the butcher to in
sert piece of suet in the center of
the roast, or, if he has time, to lard it
with thin pieces of fat. Another good
piece of meat for roast beef is the
top sirloin, which is not SO cheap, but
is recommended because it has no
waste.
1.-THE next important item on. the
meat bill is chops, either lamb, pork
or veal chops. Lamb chops, however,
are the kind mostly demanded, and of

THE ARKWAY-

The Arkway tonight offers an ex-
ceptionally interesting Rex drama,
the title of which is Beauty and the
Beast" The scenes are especially
striking. One Of the best is the open
ing, showing a street. There is a
lively sword fight. The denunciation
later by the witch of the prince,
where the latter is transformed into
the beast and all the court followers
scatter in panic through the pillared
corridors, is strong dramatically.
Another scene, as novel as it is in
teresting, is where Beauty, gone to
