BRING YOUR OWN BREAD"
Problem That Confronts 4 Hostess
in Germany

The introduction of "bread tickets
in all the communities Of Germany
and the rigid limitation of bread sales
to persons equipped with these non
transferable tickets has given rise to
many embarrassing problems. The
Hamburger Nachrichten in recent
issue pointed out the case of one
housewife who WAS expecting wo-
man guest for 4 visit of five days
and who was at loss as to how the
guest could obtain her daily bread
while enioyin" her hostcss's hospi-
tality.
~ could manage somehow if she
was to stay but two days." the wo-
man pointed out. "but five days is a
very serious matter. Surely my friend
cannot bring her five days supply Of
bread along with her; aside from the
fact that it would grow stale and UNI
palatable and thereby prove really
wastcful. it would make me appear
inhospitablc if were to tell her
practically. Provide your own pro-
visions"
II must be borne in mind that the
bread tickets issued by one COM
munity are not good for bread in an
other; so that the guest could not pos
sibly bring her own ticket with her
and hope to get bread through it.
The Hamburger police authorities
when the problem was presented to
them, decided that guests could OBJ
tain bread tickets limited to the
duration of their stay, by presenting
themselves at the police station i'm
mediately after their arrival instead
of reporting their presence only on
the fourteenth day of their stay. as
heretofore. The bread tickets so OBJ
timed must he surrendered when the
guest leaves The city again.
Bread first" is thus the slogan OF
new arrivals in German towns.

GERMAN CRITICISM
Cologne Newspaper Says President

Amsterdam, Holland April "a
Commenting on President Wilson's
address at the luncheon Of the Asso-

the Vossische Zeitung of Berlin, says,
eve could believe in the incllna-
tion of the United States after the
war to play the role to which Presl-
dent Wilson refers, namely, to pre-
mare assistance for both belligerent
parties if Americans during the
war had acted in accordance with the
principle of assistance to neither side.
The purveyors of arms and ammunl-
sion to adversaries cannot. all OF q
sudden pretend to be the impartial
friend of all belligerents in the ne
gotiations at the conclusion of war.
The Cologne Gazette says: las a

President Wilson's views may have
value, but in the light of the SAN
culinary experience through which
Europe is passing they sound almost

this is the reception that will be given

once it was considered bad manners
to lean upon the elbows, and this re-
prohensible habit was as severely
censured in the young as holding the
hands on the hips, crossing the knees
and allowing the shoulders to droop
forward and spoil the straightness Of
the back. Nowadays, leaning on ones
elbows is no disgrace, and no mark Of
ill-brceding. The pretty woman leans
on her elbows in the restaurant and
clasps her fingers TO show off her
rings: graceful attitude in a low
chair almost demands that one elbow
shall be rested on the chair-arm; tea
cups and glasses are held In hands
supported by leaning elbows-once
an awful violation of the proprieties!
and everybody leans on the elbows
on veranda and steamer rails. All
this, however, Is woefully trying on
the overworked elbows and only unre-
hitting care will keep them soft. white
and beautiful.
