To Form Woman's Peace Party.
1--WE are trying to form nucleus for
woman's peace party here on the
strength Of the emotions aroused by
this play Just because it so perfectly
presents the womsn's point Of view on
war" explained Mrs. Pinchot.
"The play has for its theme literally
the strike Of mothers. In n typics
little village young women are being
married or TO soldiers so that there
will be soldiers for future wars. The
heroine, soon to give birth 10 such
child, is wrought 10 the pitch that
sooner than deliver a child TO such
horrible future she kills herself.
Here in this village women are doing
everything to pcrpetuate human life,
vet on the other hand their men are
being killed off. It is against such
futlity in life that we must work.

HRONE Tuesday this year TAILS on
February l6, and with the dawn
~ of Ash Wednesday the somorc
Lenten weeks begin.
The traditional pancakes sacred to
Shrove Tuesday night were supposed
TO strengthen those who ate them Tor
the ordeal Of confession, but in latter
days the night is taken as an excuse
10 admit the common pancake into the
festive repast. At midnight 1t IS ban
ished and sinks into oblivion for an
other year.
Pancake parties are celebrated m
different fashions. One Of the Jollest
is to have the guests seated, at small
tables. with large table m the CEN
TIC. where three expert pancake cooks
are at work cooking over the solid
alcohol grills. keeping the covered
dishes filled with the hot cakes as fast
as they arc emptied. Each table IS
supplied with a dish Of soft butter, a
bowl Of whipped cream and pitcher
Of not maple syrup or honey. Coffee
is served with the cakes. and later IN
the evening, during dancing waters
are served with the punch.
To those who prefer the more formal
dinner before the dance, the French
pancake with jelly, or the German pan
cake with lemon juice and sugar may
form the dessert, but when the pan
cakes az served in the evening It must
be alone, or the feast is not typical Of
q day.
Aluminium GriddIe Preferable.
II aluminium griddles or grlls are
used. they require no gressing, but
small amount Of butter IS added 10 the
cake batter instead, which prevents
them sticking. Thus the smoke which
has always been Objectionable from
the greasy griddle is avoided.
The raised griddle CAKE MADE with
Yeast has almost entirely lost favor,

No Chance for Waste

Final distribution takes place at the

there is very little chance for waste

district. II he has no food and is un-
able TO buy any, he goes to the nearest
kitchen or canteen. If it IS his hrst

tered and his condition and that OF
every member of his family reported
TO a member Of the local committee.
After A woman's case has been in
yestigated she is entered upon the
books and ticket is given her. This IS
spaced off for two meals every day IN
the month, and the number OF persons
in her family is marked on the ticket
When they have received meal the
ticket is stamped with the date in the
proper place.
Mrs. Hoover sent along with her let
ter A packet of these stamped tickets.
All of them have unstamped blanks
which indicate that on those days there
was no food available. Unless the
holders were able to get some from
friends who still had supply they
went hungry on those days.
In most places the Belgians are get
ting bread or some form of cereal for
breakfast, sometimes with coffee.
Often there is also thick soup, COM
posed Of meat, bread, vegetables and
potatoes. The babies have three seps-
rate canteens. Those up TO nine
months old are given diluted milk;
from nine to eighteen months the food
is gradually changed, and from eigh-
teen months TO three years they get
more solid matter. Those three years
or older go TO the grown-ups' can
teen.
Invalids. also, whenever possible, are
given special food, and all babies and
invalids must be examined by the local
doctor every so often and have their
cards stamped by him.

Woman Walks Thirty Miles.

One day woman appeared at one OF
the Brussels canteens. With her was
an eleven-year-old child, and she car
ried in her arms a baby two or three
years old. She presented meal ticket
issued at a small town some thirty
miles away. The dispensing official
asked her what she was doing there.
She said she came for food. He asked
her how she got there. She said she
had walked.
But this is not a Brussels ticket
the official said. why didn't you ap-
ply at your town for a mcal?'
Just look at that ticket and see Why
I didn't wait there for food for my
children" she replied.
This was toward the end Of Noyem-
Der. and there were already eight blank
spaces on the ticket. Unable 20 get
food. the woman had walked the full
thirty miles and had done so without
any one stopping or molesting her.
The commission, Mrs. Hoover says,
is doing everything possible to keep
the babies with their mothers, and
many nuns and benevolent families are
doing their best TO secure this. The

Regent "Movie" Manager
Wins Out in Injunction
Brought by Victoria

Strenuous efforts by one moving
picture management to prevent the
production of "Tillie's Punctured Ro-
nance" on the screens of rival play
house fell fiat in the Dauphin county
court to-day when President Judge
George Kunkel dissolved the prelimin-
airy injunction, instituted by James and
Athens George, proprietors of the Vic
toria, against Peter Magaro, proprie-
tor of the Regent.
The tale of the punctured romance
of Tillie was shown Tuesday and yes
terday at the Victoria, although Mr..
Niagara had scheduled it at his play
house for an earlier date. The Georges
contended that Magaro had no right TO
show it first, however. because they,
too, had secured the film for an earlier
date. Magaro, thereupon changed his
date to tomorrow and Saturday
The petitioners and the respondent
were in court this morning when Judge
Kunkel issued the order against the
Georges.
Manager niagara said this morning
that an action for damages against the
Victoria management may be brought
as a result of the injunction pro-
ceeding but he refused to go into de-
tail as to the amount he will ask or
the time he might file the suit.

stinct that tells them what to eat and
what to avoid.
It is a fact that proper diet and a
good tonic will keep people well under
most conditions and restore them to
health except in acute diseases where
the need of a physician is imperative.
