A LITTLE ICE CREAM.

Copyright. 1915. by the Mcclure News.
PAPER S~yndicate).
Have you ever tried making two
quarts of ice cream in a big freezer
and then tried making a pint in a tiny
one-pint freezer?
If you never have tried the little
ice cream freezer. do so as o o as
possible. 1t costs only a little over q
dollar and 1t is such a saver of time
and labor that every household, no
matter how large, should nave one.
OF course, a pint of ice cream is
sons. But why not use ice cream as n
garnish? 1t has a very real and good
place as a garnish.
In one Of these small ice cream
~freezers a pint of ice cream can be
made in Is minutes-and that counts
the time from the moment the task is
begun until h little freezer, with the
ice cream all frozen is set into the re-
frigerator until needed.
The ice for such a small freezer Of
course must be finely chOpped-but so
1T must for a large freezer. So get
ice in a wooden bowl. Then mix It with
a third its WI measure of coarse salt.
n start the freezing. Have the CYL
tnder chilled In the refrigerator before,
hand. and have all the Ingredients very
cold. and the process of freezing will be-
even shorter.
Ice cream frozen in one Of these small
freezers cannot be kept very long. But
1t needs NJ packing-simply q few
extra pieces Of ice pushed In at the
top. And IL the freezer Is set into tho
refrigerator 1t will keep frozen for
hree-quarters Of an hour and more.
Suppose you have the very humble
dessert Of baked apples for dinner.
With each topped with a tablespoonful
OF vanilla ice cream they become q
feast. ?
Or suppose there are some lady
fingers n soft custard on hand, but

Preparation Cheaper Than War;.
Gouverneur Morris, one of the most far
sighted Americans of his day, had written
10 Secretary of State Randolph in 1894:
Il believe that we could now maintain IL
shlps OF the line, perhaps 20, with a due
proportion of frigates and smaller vessels.
ana am tolerably certain that while the
United States of America pursues a lust
and liberal conduct with 20 s~ail-of-the-line
at sea-, no nation on earth will dare to in
SUIT tnem. L believe also that, not to men,
tlon individual losses, five years of war
would involve more national expense than
me support of a navy for 20 years. One
thlng l am thoroughly convinced of, that
II we do not render ourselves respectable

them by either of the marrying parties. I
believed that a system to that effect
might be formed ultimately far more eco
nomical and certainly more energetic than
a three years embargo. I did submit a
proposition to the Senate. and similar
attempts had been made in the House Of
Representatives. but equally %discounten-
anced."
The embargo referred to was pro-
claimed against trade with Great Britain
IN retaliation for violation of the ship
ping rights of this country, a measure
which ruined many Of our merchants
grievously distressed our seamen and fo-
mented widespread dissatisfaction with
the government, without effecting n
appreciable injury to Great Britain
nevertheless, when war was declared.
In June. 1917. the entire naval force II
the United States consisted of less than
70 effective vessels. Most Of them were
at the moment assembled in New York

In view of President Wilson'S announced
policy of preparedness it is instructive
to look at the defenseless position of this
country more than a century ago.
Although there had been increasing fric-
ton with Great Britain for more than 20
years over interferences with our COM
merce and impressment of American sea-
men. and although Washington, in his last
annual message, had sounded a distinct
warming. h party in power. then called
republican, the party to which Jefferson
and Madison belonged. had persistently
refused to build a navy or otherwise pre-
pare for national defense.
W~aShfngton'S parting words on the sub
Ject We're: cit is our experience that
the most sincere neutrality is not a suffi-
Gent guard against the d-epredations of
nations at war. To secure respect TO" a
neutral ftag requires Il naval force, or
ganized and ready. to vindicate it from in
suit or aggression. This may ever pre-
vent the necessity of going to war. by
discouraging ~belligerent powers from COM

The Canadian telegraph lines went down this morning at some point and Nome is today almost completely cut off from telegraphic communication with the outside world. A small amount of press came through by way If Egbert last night and this allows the Nugget to give a little of the news of what is going on on the outside world. Up to late hour today noth- ing had been heard as to the break in the cable and whether 1t has been To- cated or not cannot be told. It Is known that the cable ship Burnside is in Alaska waters at present and the trouble will probably be remedied within a short time.
