USE SOLDIERS
 CLOSE SALOONS Governor West ofOregon Sends Troops to Milwaukee to Prevent the
 Sale of Liquors.

SALEM, Ore, May Ex-Governor West of this state today ordered out a company of state militia and in structed them to proceed at once to Milwaukee, in Clackamas county, es- tablish martial law, suppress the Friars Club, which is openly violat- ing the law and selling liquor in spite of the prohibition law and to confis- cate all stocks of liquors and destroy them along with the bar fixtures and furniture in the rooms.
 The militia are now en route to the scene and anticipate no opposi- ton from the local police authorities. as the many efforts of the police to block the militia have always result ed in the worsting> of the local au- thorities.
 The colonel in command of the troops has been instructed by Gov ernor West to pay no attention to any injunctions that may be secured by the liquor dealers, as the establish nent of martial law prevents court in reference.

They Should Be Well Balanced as to

They Should Be Well Balanced as to
Food Values.
Remember that the food you eat is
the only thing that keeps you alive,
for your body is like a fire-always go
ing out, and food keeps this fire burn
ing. Food that does not keep you we'll
and make you strong is not good food
for you. But the same food may be
the proper kind for your neighbor, who
is less active.
Each person should eat enough food
to keep the muscles strong, keep the
body warm, keep the blood in good Or
der and give the desire to work.
Strength foods are lean meat, milk,
eggs and cereals. These are the most
nutritious.
Heating foods are butter, fat meat,
sugar and cereals.
Fattening foods are cereals, sugar,
milk, butter and any fats.
The blood is kept clean by vegeta-
bles, fruit and water
Most Of these foods furnish several
things for our bodies. Cereals, for in
stance, make muscles, warmth and fat.
The average family needs about
equal quantities of muscle making food
and fat making food and three and
one-haIf times that amount in food that
produces the desire to work.
Menus based ON the suggestions Civ
en- with vegetables and fruits or SIM
pie buildings can be made quite appe-
tizing. Let the main dish for break
fast be a cereal, with milk OR cream,
and sugar for the children, bread or
toast, coffee for the groWnups and CO.
Goa shells for the children.
For dinner plan one substantial dish
Of meat or some other muscle maker.
such as beans. lentils, peas, macaroni
and cheese, rice with cheese and brown
gravy, eggs or fish; one starchy vege
table, such as rice or potatoes, and two
or three times a week a fresh vegeta-
BILE and pudding or a fruit dessert
For supper a very simple meal, con-
sisting Of one main dish, bread in some
form, tea or coffee and milk for the
children is best.

COLORING RUCHING.
A Simple Way Of Tinting Laces and
Delicate Fabrics.

A Simple Way of Tinting Laces and
Delicate Fabrics.
To color ruching to match the blouse
fold the ruching with edges together
and dip it in a solution Of oil paint
thinned with gasoline, being sure there
is no danger of fire. Smooth and work
the paint into a liquid, adding the
gasoline until the tint exactly match
es the waist. Gasoline runs in silk or
any fabric, so in a moment the ruch-
ing will be beautiful tint; a moment
of shaking in the wind and it is dry
and quite lovely.
Lace and ribbons, even kid gloves.
may thus be tinted, as we'll as feath-
ers. Light straw hats may be brush
ed with the tint and changed to almost
any desired color. Hand painted lace
may be brushed with paints so thin
ned, and results will be charming
The raised parts Of the lace may be
made any color, while the base may
be tinted as was the ruching mention
ed above. Care must be observed to
have an even tint in the bath.
Be sure never to use gasoline In a
room where there is fire or a light.
Much better to do the work out of
doors.

Memorial Day.

Here in the woodland places, where the
sunlight filters through,
The children gather the blossoms that are
wet with the shining dew.
They pluck them out Of the grasses and
off Of the bending spray
And they weave the wreaths and garlands
for our Memorial day.
High in the leafy branches the robins
sway and sing
They are greeting the happy tidings that
burst from the heart Of spring.
But the children hardly listen or pause in
their sacred quest
For flowers to cover the places where the
soldiers are at rest
They have been told the story, and. though
little enough they know
OF the time of wars and battles in the
long, long years ago,
They feel that our beautiful country,
where we live in peace today,
Owes greater debt to the soldiers than
all of their love can pay.
They are simple things. the garlands that
their fingers fashion thus
For the brave and loyal soldiers who saved
our flag for us.
But we watch them gather blossoms. and
deep In our hearts we pray
That their lives may catch the spirit Of
our Memorial day.

Amber.

Many children wear a string Of am
Der beads about their necks, and often
they wonder where the pretty transpar-
ent yellow beads come from.
Amber is Il fossilized vegetable resin
and is found in great abundance on the
shores of the Baltic sea. 1t is derived
probably from a variety of extinct
tree. The word electricity comes from
the Greek word elektron, which means
amber, because amber becomes mega
lively electric when rubbed.
According to an old fable, amber is
the tears of the sisters of Phaethon, the
youth who would drive the car of the
sun. After his death they were turned
into poplar trees. By some people am
Der is said to be a concretion of birds
tears.
