a few days apparently disappeared
just as mysteriously as she appeared,
It was predicted, however, that in
few weeks she might bob up In some
far distant waters, raiding commerce

There was no tangible evidence to-

The majority Of the press and pub

the freedom Of the seas. The average

MORE MONEY ASKED FOR
MAINTENANCE OF GUARD
Budgeters Believe $4,000 the
Year Will Be Needed
Dickinson Normal School

The budget board, after pairing more
than million from the requests sub
mitted for appropriations by the var
ious institutions and department. ts
which draw upon the public purse, to
day recommended to the Fifteenth
general assembly the appropriation oi
$5,411,746.92 to meet all of North Da
kota's public expenses for the ensu
ing two years. The original requests
totaled $780, 1902.
Various Items.
Some of the important items which
the budget includes are $S77,236 for
all state departments, which asked
$950,707; $736,394 for the penal and
charitable institutions; $1,39397O for
the educational institutions; $698,sOO
for aid to maintenance in lieu Of mill
tax.
National Guard.
For the National Guard, $120,00d
was asked. and 100000 is recon-
mended. The budget board goes on
record in favor OF preparedness: be-
1ieves our national guard should be
recruited up to full strength under the
provisions of the Hay bill, and that
for the next two years at least $4,000
per annum will be needed. April Is,
1919. the North Dakota National Guard
numbered 735 men and SIS officers; TO-
day, on war footing, the guard boasts
$50 men and officers. Under the Hay
bill, the North Dakota forces should
ultimately reach 1000. To comply
with federal requirements 1850 men
must be enrolled in 1917 and 1886 In
1918. For this reason the budgeters
recommend 100000 for the ensuing
biennium as compared with $4,000
for the last two years.

trys international obligations what
he has done and his views of the duty
OF the garrison" in the days that are

While the president is looking to
Europe with the most profound inter-

may have on the governments. and
people of the warning nations, he
awaits with equal eagerness the ver-

cause he has championed before the
world.
Opposition to BE Overcome.
1t is known that he realizezs the
tremendous opposition at home to be
overcome before the United States
can take place in world alliance
to preserve peace, even though that
alliance be based on such a peace as
he outlined as the condition a peace
founded on the equality of rights at
nations, right feeling among nations,
and the elimination of organized ri.
valries. Open opposition to his ideas
already has been expressed among
Republicans of the senate and the in
herent aversion Of large part of the
people generally to any suggestion Of
departure from the traditional pol.
icy of Ameica is fully recognized.

The president Is said to believe,
however, that in full understanding
Of his reasons for holding on that it
would be impossible for the United
States to remain neutral through an
other great war, and realization of
the part their country can play in ad-
vancing civilization, these difficulties
will be swept away.
Bitter criticism from Europe and de-
nunciation of the American press Of
what will be called attempting to pre-.
scribe the terms on which the great
powers at war shall lay down their
arms, is expected. Nevertheless, the
administration is confident that event.
ually substantial good will come Of
Mr.. Wilson's unprecedented course.

confronted with the necessity of re-

While home-maker may be CON

wasteful, if she will examine her
methods she will often find that she
is extravagant. In the present ma
tional crisis, we need to practice the
old-fashioned thrift and economy OF
our grandmothers in our homes. We
are not advocating the eating of less
food but we are urging less waste of
food The amount actually wasted
in home may seem small in each
individual case, but when the waste
goes on throughout the nation it
counts up.
Fifty-seven varieties of food are
not necessary for a well-balanced ra-
ton, in fact the 81 varieties may be
present and a square meal" absent.
Let us, as home makers, set about
to be food conservers by
Studying food values so as to
plan economical and properly bal
anced meals.
! Make use of meat substitutes
such as cheese, milk, beans, peas,
nuts. Make use of rice as starchy
food and corn as bread stuff.
