streets at Main and Quarry, where the
accident occurred
A tremendous roar, echoing the
screams of the dying people, brought
thousands to the scene Of the disaster
in the heart of Akron's business dis

work of rescue.
A great pile of ruins, broken tim

CONFEREES AGREE
UPON ARMY PLANS
ADVOCATES OF ADEQUATE Ma
TlONAL DEFENSE REGARD
AGREEMENT A TRIUMPH.

Washington.-A standing army Of
2O6,OOO fighting men, capable of being
expanded in emergency to 254,OOO,
and backed by a federalized national
guard OF 425,00O as a reserve, finally
was agreed on by House and Senate
conferees on the army bill. This
would give total peace strength OF
631,OO0 men. The agreement will be
reported to Congress and the meas
ure, the first of the administration pre-
paredne9s bill, is expected to be be-
fore President Wilson for his sigma
ture.
Advocates of adequate national de-
tense regard the conference agree,
ment as triumph. The compromise
between the House ana Senate meas
ures was effected after weeks OF
struggle against an insistent demand
from House conferees for a standing
army of only 100000 men, appeared
that the Senate might be forced to
yield. The Senate bill provided for
250,000.
The minimum enlisted strength
would be attained, under the agree
ment, within the next five years, and
it is stipulated that at no time shall
the total be less than 10000.
The conference report also provides
for government nitrate manufacturing
plants, to cost not exceeding $20,000
600; for vocational education in the
regular army and for the establish
ment of training camps for volunteer
citizens, whose transportation, clotn,
ing and subsistence expenses while
in training would be paid by the fed
eral government.
The training camp feature, as final
ly approved, is regarded as compensa-
tion in a measure for the federal vol
unteer reserve of PSI, 900 men, which
Senate conferees were forced to aban-
don on insistence from the House,

Adds Greatly TO the NutrltiVe Value Of
Dishes With Which 1t May BE
Mixed.

Rice has great nutritiye value, 80
when you can add ii to meat you are
not only reducing the cost Of the dish,
but you are maintaining, somewhat In
creasing, its food value.
Rice can be added TO almost any
sort of meat. Rice, plain boiled and
drained as dry as possible, can be add
ed to a chicken fricassee. 1t can also
be made into croQuettes to serve with
chicken. and rice croquettes may be
served with lamb or mutton stew.

rice in this way: Put a round steak
an inch and a half thick in a creased
casserole, and cover it with a cupful
of rice that has been soaked for an
hour. Pour over this half a can OF
tomatoes and season with salt and
pepper. Then add a quart of water.
Cover and bake for two hours slowly,
and then uncover and cook for 20 min
utes longer.
This il a good mutton and rice stew:
Boil a cupful of rice and drain it. Slice
three or four carrots and boil until ten
der. In the meantime simmer until
tender a pound of breast of mutton
which will take about two hours.
Thicken the meat gravy and pour the
meat on a platter. Surround with the
carrots, in ring, and then with the
rice, in a mound around the edge OF
the platter
This is rice and veal recipe: Place
a slice or several slices of veal in an
ungreased skillet until brown. Remove
to a molding board and cut into pieces
two inches square, or smaller. Put
with a small minced onion, in a cas-
serole, and cover with boiling water
and two or three slices of bacon.
