WOMEN SERVE BEST
BY KEEPING WELL
DR.. Noble Talks to Women of
Tulsa on Their High Duty
of Keeping Fit.

Women's clothes have never been
so sensible as at the present moment,
thinks DR.. Mary Riggs Noble. who is
delivering a series of lectures to
women and girls in Tulsa The long.
loose easy, lines, short skirts and the
open, Unrestricted throat lines could
scarcely be improved on for either
health, appearance or comfort. Doctor.
Noble, however, sees one jdrring note
the high heelcd shoes which she
thinks ungraceful, uncomfortable and
urhygienc. and which she affirms all
women who wear them live to regret
them bitterly because of the discom-
forts and ills that follow in their
Wake.
The Highest Type.
Doctor Noble says that the message.
which she would give out of the full
ness of her experiences to the ear OF
every woman and girl in Tulsa is that
the highest type of patriotism in
which the American woman can parti-
cipate is that first duty to herself of
keeping fit-mentally, physically ana
morally Then she is able to answer
the call when the call comes and
keep from filling up the ranks of the
80 per cent rejected as unfit for
service.
Doctor Noble who is a physician Of
wide and varied experiences in many
lands, is talking 10 the Tulsa women,
IN her capacity as physician. She
has been brought here by the Y. w.
{. A. for that purpose and her lee
lures are of tnestimable value to every
type of womanhood

FOOD AND EXPENDITURES.

While tinkering the food control bill in
Congress an amendment was attached
which provided for congressional COM
miItee to supervise war expenditures
The average mind could not understand
what war expenditures had to do with
food control People had an idea that
the embargo bill specifically took care of
expectations to foreigners, and that the
food control bill was intended to main
tain and preserve the rights of our own
people 1t was expected that the bill
would stop the spectators from robbing
them of some $50, 900, 600 every month.
This may seem to be an overestimate,
but it is only half dollar for each one
of our population during every 80 days.
We are content to leave the estimation
of the amount of the SPECTATORS loot to
those who have been robbed. The fact
that we have been wickedly defrauded is
well established, and we believe that the
food bill should have been framed with
the sole view of protecting the people,
and that the question of war expendi-
lures should have been considered as an

PARCEL POST.

Last week 90 tons of mail order cata-
logue books arrived in Portland from
Chicago They were hauled from the
mail car to the post office and from there
will be remailed to the people of Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont. The
books came by parcel post and the post
age was $500, equal to a freight rate of
S424 a ton. At this rate coal could be
brought from the Pennsylvania mines
for about So so a ton. We need he.coal
and can get along nicely without the
catalogues In fact it is fairly apparent
that the mail order business is a damage
to us. 1t certainly operates against our
own merchants and it is doubtful if the
benefit to buyers is real. Buying done in
Chicago does not benefit the business of
Belfast nor of the State of Maine, and
here is where we live. Of course it is
not reasonable to send coal by parcel
post, but it does seem that shipping 90
tons of advertisements in that way is
quite as absurd. 1t is said that the expenses
of the postal department far exceed the
receipts. We do not want to pay an ad-
vance in letter postage, as has been sug-
gested, because the government is losing
money in handling catalogues.
