As rebuttal to the walls of lamentation
emanating from Baltimore by stoclkhold-
ers of the defunct Federal League club of
that city, James A Gilmore today de-
clared that the 0riole city operators were
as much a part and parcel of the peace
negotiations as any of their colleagues.
Baltimore Well Treated.
Baltimore will soon forget its alleged
grievance" said Gilmore. "The' whole
trouble lies with few of the small stock
holders who would like to make capital
out of the major leagues. Baltimore was
treated quite as fairly as any city, fact
that will develop when the inside story
of peace negotiations is made public, Not

Christmas Shopping.

Early Christmas shopping Is not possible for everyone. There are many who can not buy their Christmas gifts until their week. ly or monthly pay just before Christmas. But there are hun dreds-even thousandS-in every city who. .are able to shop early, and who do not.
 Every year newspapers all over the country take up the

No doubt some good is accomplished, but many thou sands of persons who could shop early, read the reasons present. ed for shopping early and then wait until the eleventhlhour to do their shopping.

The Way to Cook Rice.

Champ Clark said something" when he advised the American people to eat rice to keep down the high cost of living. The main thing to do to rice besides eating 1t, is to cook it in plenty of water or milk and not break the gram during the time of boiling. Then serve it steaming hot and put milk and sugar and butter on it. or serve it with ham. sausage or steak and transform it into calor- ies and energy units and things. But don't eat it all. Take what is left and use 1t as a border for meats, in soup or in combination with tomatoes and cheese. or in puddings and other desserts. and experience the delights of good living in spite of the rising price of bread, potatoes and oth- CT less digestible and less nutri- tious, though more expensive ar ticle5 of focd.
