Eat Seasonable Foods.

-dS VSS0os
no matter how carefully we may
have lived throughout the winter. every
one feels more or less the lassitude Of
the early spring days. and. although
the inclination may be toward sulphur
and mOlaSses or some patent medicine,
there IS no doubt that the cOmmon
sense thing to do Is to change our GUS
tomary food habits and Introduce more
seasOnable foods.
Unfortunately in many sections
there Is a between times month, when
the winter vegetables and fruits are
jaded and the spring products are fore
ed and consequently prOhibitive in
price. But grapefruit can be obtained
almost anywhere ut small cost, oranges
are always inexpensive at this time.
cranberricS. with their wonderful acid,
are still in season, and lemons. which
are invaluable. can be used ad libitum.
Apples. too, can be obtained, and for

There is an old prOverb which runs
like this, Eat onions in May. no doc
tor to pay This applies not only to
onions. but to lettuce, spinach and. in
fact. all the green foods that begin to
appear about March |. IL choice is to
be made between Il pOrterhOuse steak

stew with salad choose the latter every
time. 1t will be argued that the nutri-
ment Is tn" same. and as far as the
meat Is concerned it is. But the pOr.
terhOuSe steak does not have the min
erals that the salad contains, and after
1t is eaten the whole body will not feel
as light, buOyant and as generally sat
isfied as when the salad accompanies
the meat.
AS to the salad dressing, let it be
very simple. preferably Of olive oil cut
by lemon juice. or If olive oil Is too ex-
pensive. with COrn or peanut oil. which
can be obtained at One-third the price.

Chief Need Of Railways
Is Long Term
Loans
DR.. H. PARKER WILLIS, Secretary
of the Federal Reserve Board
THE federal reserve act is not a

THE federal e act is not a
measure which has to do with
long term investment of CAPT
tai, and those who look to it as a
direct means of relief for manulac-
turing enterprises, LIKE THOSE
WHO LOOK TO 1T AS A MEANS
OF PROVIDING AGRICULTURE
AL RESOURCES, MUST INEV-
ITABLY BE DISAPPOINTED. ,
The direct inference is a thought
which has often been suggested
within the past year or two in well
informed quarters, but which has
never been emphasized so positive
ly as today. This is that above all
things else it is imperative to turn
the funding of railway obligations
into long term securities and t"
place those securities in the hands
of the public.
1t has been equally obvious that
the credit of railroads was best safe
guarded and tho stability Of their
funded Indebtedness was most
strongly assured when the >rcuri-
ties were widely distributed and
their bonds held by bona Gdc in
vestors, who bought them because
they sought a safe investment for
their funds and intended to hold
them because of the income produc-
ing power of the securities.

and might have been an officer or sailor
of the ship in which Captain Smith ex-

places after members of such expedi-

John Cameron who made number of
trips to Virginia about 1920, and as he
was probably well known to Smith it

ages by New England visitors.

The purpose Of the guarantee was
TO protect the local dealer from IN
Just prosecution. For example: A
Massachusetts grocery firm sold
lemon extract containing wood alec
hol. The extract was manufacture
ed in s nearby state. and the Mas
sachusetts grocer was heavily fined
for selling the adulterated product.
In one sense this was unjust, as
the grocer had no means Of know
ing of the deadly nature Of the eX-
tract which he purchased in good
faith. Pure justice demanded that
not the grocer. but the manufac-
tUrer, be fined. 1t was to do away

SISTERS COLLEGE
WORK PROGRESSING ON SITE OF
NEW INSTITUTION NEAR THE
CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.

Two communities of Sisters have
already erected structures which will
form part of the group of buildings
near the Catholic University of Amer
lea, Washington, D. c., which will con-
stitute one of the most extensive in
stitutions in the world for the higher
education of Sisters and lay women
teachers in the Catholic Church. Work
on the buildings for other sisterhoods
will start in the early spring.
The site for the proposed Woman's
college is separated from the Catholic
University by the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad tracks, and to complete the
group an expenditure of about $780,
900 will be necessitated. An oblong
tract of rolling country chosen as the
site lends itself naturally to a division
of the buildings into two groups-one
of the academic buildings approached
directly from the boulevard and the
other group of community residences
for the various religious orders.
Around the entire tract will be high
stone wall.
At the present time fifty Sisters
from communities in various parts of
the United States are studying for ad.
vanced degrees, which will be con.
ferred upon them next June.
