that a good quality percale, white ground with black figures, can be boil ed without fading For that reason it makes a good material for dresses, aprons or waists.
 Mercerized poplin is another satis- factory material, as it both wears and launders well.
 A few hints to the housewife before I close.
 Dried Corn, for chowders or to be creamed is much better if it is run through the meat grinder before cook ing. Use the fine cutter.
 Raisins run through the grinder, using the fine cutter, are an improve ment on the usual method of chopping, but they must be creamed with sugar and lard, not left to be added last. My folks are fond of macaroni, but
 are not enthusiastic over 1t when
 combined with cheese. I use it with beef, smoked ham, dried beef or saus- age. The meat should ibe run through the meat grinder and then well brown in the spider. Add a little water and
 then the macaroni If the flavor of onion is liked, run one through the l grinder with the meat. I never drain macaroni after cook | ing it. Let 1t boil for ten or fifteen 1 minutes, then draw to the back of the l stove, and let it cook gently for ar
 hour or more, it will swell amazingly | A pound of macaroni will absorb two l quarts of water.
 Did you know that wood put on g | fire bark down will deaden it, per | haps go out altogether? If put into i the stove heart down it will be | more apt to burn well, | To prevent explosions when using l kerosene to start a fire-keep an olC
 paint brush in a tin can with a little
 kerosene. Paint a few sticks of wooc 1 with the kerosene before putting then | in the stove. The fire starts quickly
 and there is no danger whatever. | Here's wishing the best of luck tt | all the CorneriteS.

Dear Social Corner Friends: After a whole winter of social gath erings there begins to be a dearth of new games in community and usually there are many games which seem worn out in one place that are new to others.
 Will not some of the Cornerites tell us about some games they have found especially pleasing that would be suitable for church socials.

Attorney General Peterson is adopt
ing the injured innocence expression
a trifle prematurely to make much of
A hit with the people of this state. The
fact that his note is in the state treas
ury itself is the bit of evidence which
the grand jury must consider. If his
explanation eonvinces them he should
have little fear of the public which is
usually fair in its opinions. 1t prob
ably now occurs to the Attorney Cen
eral that the suppression of the Ram
stedt report was not good policy. 1t
has naturally aroused suspicion that
he was concerned for his own safety.
The Times sincerely hopes that if Mr..
Peterson, regardless of his party af-
filiation, is innocent that he may be
so declared, On the other hand if the
evidence points conclusively to his
conniving or actual guilt in any of the
state treasury or state land board ac-
tivities that he must be given the
same treatment that the ordinary
criminal is accorded at the bar OF
Justice. Mr.. Peterson as guardian
of a public trust, is neither Republi-
can nor Democrat, but state EN-
ploye. His innocence or guilt is tht
states affair rather than the party t
which he is affiliated.

A CALL TO GERMAN AMERICANS
TO "ORGAIZE "

Interesting and perhaps grave pos
sibilities are forseen by some editorial
onlookers in the movement to weld our
German-American population into
unit for some action not as yet clear
ly defined. This plan is indicated in
Mr.. Herman Riders advice to Ameri-
cans of German descent to organic"
and by Mr.. Maurice Icons assertion
that under a special German law Ger
mans may become American citizens
without sacrificing their German clt1-
Zenship and allegiance. The subject
acquires an added interest when We
remember that some statisticians place
the number of Communications in
the United States at 10000, 600. 1T is
well for those Americans of German
extraction to ponder on the many
grave problems which confront them
owing to the war" writes Mr.. Ridder,
who is convinced that "the drift OF
public opinion, driven by press un-
| friendly toward Germany requires a
closer bond of sympathy between the
| friends of Germany" The day draws
near, he declares, when "the allies
hard pressed, forced by their necessi-
| ties, will demand of the United States
even a more active cooperation than
they are receiving at the present
time" and against that day we must
be organized to fight" This exhorta
ton to his German-A American fellow
citizens is published in Mr.. Riders
New York Staats-Zeitung. To quote
other passages:
Each single and individual German
residing in the United States or tn
descendant of a German must play nj
or her part in preaching the gospe
of German justice and German TAI
play. Let an endless chain of dis
cussion help to swing the balance bac
in favor of the cause we know to b
J lust. There must be no shirkers. n
drones in this campaign. The respon
, sibility lies evenly on every one G
, YOU. We cannot resort to conscriptlo
but must rely upon universal servlc
of a voluntary character.

be largely military in character, DIT
least for the present, but rather pollt-
ical. DR.. Dernburg, as boss of an
enormous German political machine,
is to be enabled to dictate to the Am
erican Government SO that it will rec
ognize the annexation of Belgium by
the Kaiser. Once that is achieved, our
Minister and Consuls in Belgium Will
be treated as meddlers concerning
themselves improperly with matters
affecting German subjects if they con-
tinue their activities in behalf OF
PROSTATE people to whom the United
States still stands as the symbol of
human justice and pity"
Speaking for the German American
members Of Congress, Representative
Richard A. Barthold, of Missouri, rose
one the floor of the House to answer
Mr.. Icons charge that he and his col
| leagues were acting as agents OF the
German Government. He said in part:
1T is true | am an American citi-
zen of German birth, but this means,
lif do not differ from all other
American Germans, that / am a man
who is loyal to the Stars and Stripes
and who is for America against Eng
land, America against Germany, for
America against the world
Turning to the l-citizenshil
charge, Mr.. Bartholdt denounced it as
almost incredible in it's mendaclty.
The facts, he said are simply these:
Germany like every othr country
has law which makes it possible fol
those who are away from the Father
land to retain their citizenship by re-
porting within ten years to a German
consul, but when SO reporting the!
must make oath that they have no
acquired or taken steps to acquire cit
, izenship in any other country. The per
, Tod within which they must registe
| used to be only two years, but was ex
7 tended to ten years when it was foun'
. that many persons had innocently for
: feited their citizenship owing to tn
t shortness OF time. That is all
This does not silence Mr. Leon, how

Pan-Germans in Congress have bee

know that if any one thing will bring
results it is their story of wanting

large number of people day after day.
The duller the labor market the more

the labormg man. On the other hand
with few exceptions, the business
man not figuring the value of the ad-

When money is plentiful and business
is good, advertising is givc1 boost.
When the dull season strikes business
he hastens to cut down advertising

stead of rightly figuring that adyertis-

head expense, he regards it as a bust

business man should have different
idea regarding the necessity of adyer-
Using as the keystone to business sue

nevertheless. Despite the gigantic

Using has a pulling power for bust
ness in the busy season, that it must
still have the same force in the dullest
times. Yet where there is one live
business man making use of IL business
getting power there are a score OF
them in every community, who are
not. Most of the business men hate
mail order houses and want to combat
them, yet will at the critical period lose
their vital connection between them
| elves and the consumers and stop all
advertising. The mail order house
does not do business that way, adyer-
Using is their live wire connection
with their million customers scattered
over wide area. The duller the times
the more stress they put upon theil
cheaper lines of goods. Is it any won

faster in dull times than during pros
