SCOUTS FIND CAMP COOKS

National headquarters of the Boy Scouts of America recently received a telegram from Captain Walling, Platts- burg training camp, New York, stating that 150 walters and 20 cooks were needed for the 5000 men. Captain Walling added: "Will you as a pa triotic duty assist me in securing these men?'
 Government officials have been quick to realize that well-organized army of nearly 100000 boys and men could be made available for many varieties of service, and this call to pass upon cooks is right in line with the scouts experience and training.
 Upon receipt of the telegram, let ters were sent to all points where 1t was believed men might be secured. Advertisements were also placed in newspapers, calling upon men who could do. this work to show their pa triotism by offering their services.
 The Fifth avenue building in New York allowed scout officials to use an office on the ground floor, and in re sponse to the advertisements more than 300 men applied for positions. There were secursd 195 walters and 30 cooks to report at the Plattsburg camp,

KING PROUD OF NEW ARMY
Roumanian Force in Action Again Is Better Disciplined and Equipped
 Than Ever Before.

Petrograd.-Reorganized, better dis ciplined and better equipped, the Rou- manian army is in action again. Fer iinand's ravished kingdom is far diff ferent from the disorganized host that fled eastward last year before the overwhelming hordes of Von Falken- hayn and Won Mackensen.
 Throughout the winter months and late into the spring Russian, British and French officers worked over the Roumanian troops, drilling them in the new fighting tactics which this, the greatest of all wars, has brought out.
 The new Roumanian army is the pride of King Ferdinand's eye and great things are expected from 1t this coming summer.

Eleanor Johnson is Terribly Scalded
 by immersion in Boiling Water...

GLOBE-Terribly scalded by an in voluntary immersion in a tub of boil ing water, Eleanor Johnson, the in- fant daughter of MT. and Mrs. Ike Johnson, died at the family residence late Saturday afternoon. The funeral of the unfortunate child was conduct ed from the Jones' Chapel at O. clock Sunday afternoon, Rev. Wm. Riddle officiating.
 The baby girl, who was but 2 years and months of age, received the fatal burns while playing in the kitchen of her home. Her mother was engaged in canning peaches. and during the course of the opera tion, placed the fruit in muslin bags which were then dipped in vat of boiling water, which for convenience had been placed on the floor. Leaving the room for moment to secure some jars, she was horror stricken to hear screams of agony emanating from the kitchen, rushing she found the little one threshing about in the tub of water.

ARIZONA POTATO SITUATION

That there are no potatoes being plowed under by farmers in any part of California or Arizona because of alleged inability of growers to find a good market for them and that all Arizona tubers are in brisk demand at good prices. not only in Arizona, but also in many states further east, is the declaration today of the State Council of Defense. The announce ment is made in refutation of widely disseminated reports that hundreds of acres of potatoes are being plowed under or are rotting on the ground in the west because of alleged inabili- ty of growers to sell them at a price equal to the cost of production.
 Regarding the present demand for tubers and reports that they were going to waste in many localities, E. P. Taylor, of the University of Arizona, today issued the following statement:
 Our investigations, covering prac- tically the entire Southwest, fail to show single instance where farmers have or are blowing under their pota- toes. Some weeks ago farmers in California were unable to dispose of their potatoes and considerable loss was threatened. Publicity given to the situation and an appeal to the public to eat more potatoes and on- ions, however, remedied the situation almost over night. Since then the price of potatoes received by the growers has gone up more than "a cent pound and there is a ready market for all of the good potatoes that are available.
 Only one isolated case has come to our attention of where farmer threatened" to blow under his po- tatoes. He afterwards sold his en- tire crop for approximately two cents a pound"
 There is good market at very good price for all the potatoes that the Southwest can raise. and the de- mand for winter potatoes, now being planted, will be even greater than it is for the present crop of early tubers, of their better keeping qualities.

The city and police officials of Mem. phis, Tenn, state that Memphis pc destrians and drivers now walk and drive properly and observe to the letter all traffic regulations for the first time ill the history of the city. The reason for this was that 400 Bay Scouts, clad in uniform and carrying big signs upon poles, patrolied the downtown streets and pavements and carefully showed those on foot and in automobiles how to avoid accidents and collisions and at the same time reach ti:eir destination quickly.

CULTIVATE HABIT OF THRIFT
Impossible to Learn Too Early the
Importance Of Spending Ones
Money In Wise Manner.

ANY fool is a good spender, but it
takes a wise man, to save money.
That there are more fools than wise
men is proved by the fact that one
tenth of all the people who die in the
United States are buried in pauper's
graves.
With a population of 100,O00000
there are 100000 people in the Unit
ed States who would be hungry in ten
days after losing their Jobs.
There are 100000 men with steady
jobs and little children dependent on
them who have not saved enough to
feed their own babies for two weeks.
There are 100000 "well-to-do"
men who could not pay their debts and
have enough left to buy a gallon Of
gasoline for the automobile they ride
In every day.
What is thrift Industry earns,
economy manages, providence plans,
and frugality saves. Thrift embraces
all these.
Training in thrift should be a part
of the curriculum of every school and
part Of the training of every boy and
/ girl, every man and woman. Thrift
Of mind, of time, and most Of all OF
money, needs greater emphasis

Referring to the Bottle Law Re-
pealer and the Resubmission question,
the Dover "Delawarean'' has this to
say: "Perhaps the hardest fight was
made on the question of resubmission
for Wilmington. Aside from the
stock -in-trade ideas usually advanced
by those who have a personal interest
in the liquor business, two arguments
against this bill were advanced and
answered. One was that, while re-
submission would be all right for rural
New Castle, it would not be "fair''
to force it on Wilmington when
Wilmington does not want it. Will
mington did not task for it'' in the
sense that her representation showed
"dry" majority; therefore, it was
argued, she did not want it. As one
of her representative districts is the
section in which are most of her sa-
looms, and as it would require both of
them to make majority of two. it is
probable that with her present d.
vision of territory. etc., she would
task for" resubmission about the
year four thousand and one, or later
Therefore it was thought better not
to wait for that. hut to give the peo-
pie chance to express their wish.
''Be it remembered that resubmis-
sion does just that. 1t does not force
anyone to vote dry" so if Whining
ton is 30 decidedly in favor of staying
'wet" as some would have had Us
think, all she has to do is to say so at
the election provided for in the resub.
mission bill. If you divide any terri
tory in such way as to give one rep
resentative to the saloon people and
the other to those opposed to the sa-
loon, and then require both represen-
tatives to approve before allowing g
vote by the people, it is evident the
people have small chance to express
their wishes.
1.-THE other objection to which W,
refer, was the threat that the frs
time we have "wet" Legislature
we shall have resubmission in Ken
and Sussex. is strikingly answered b,
a member of the present House, WIN
says We'll never sgsin have 'wet'
Legislature.
1--WE believe that in the struggl
to oust the saloon from our State an
from our country, under ordinary con
ditions every inch of ground must b
fought for; but in the event of
great war, the national reform ma
come much more quickly. for fight
ing people can not afford to have
foe within their own numbers. -

To ANSWER CHARGE
IN RECORD COURT

After having been discharged
from custody on a charge of break
ing and entering, two negroes named
Todd and Waters, were again picked
up, and are now cited to appear, I'M
der bonds of $3.50 each, at next
weeks term of the court of record
1t is understood that new evidence
has been found in the cases and that
they will have a hard time proving
that they are guilty of the allega-
tions recited in n information which
has already been filed against them
by the county solicitor.
These are the negroes who were
arrested through the good work of
Commissioner Saunders and Special
Officer Harper, and who were charg-
ed with having been mainly respon-
sible for the disappearance of a
large amount of groceries and feed
stuffs from the place where they
We're employed. A quantity of goods
were recovered. From the city they
were bound over to the county au-
thorities, and when presented for pre-
limJnary hearing before Justice
Johnson were discharged from Gus
tody. 1t was claimed that the evil
dence was not all adduced against
them at the original preliminary, but
after their discharge on the first
hearing, the solicitor looked into the
charges and the evidence, with the
result that they were again arrested.

time she intended telling the truth as
soon as she was sure she would be

Thousands Of women are daily guild
ed in their cooking by the advice and
suggestions Of this most eminent au-
thority. Mrs. Chase has shown those
housewives how to materially reduce
the high cost of living and secure bet
ter results in every branch of cooking
she has given them the benefit of her
scientific methods-she has shown them
how to avoid impure foods
A graduate Of the University of Chi
cago-a domestic science lecturer of
natioLal fame-she knows which IS best
through exhaustive experiments and
the constant study of scientific cooking
and pure foods.
One of the subjects nearest her heart
one which she has given endless
study-one which she considers of vi
tai importance-is baking and baking
powders In a recent interview Mrs.
Chase said:
IT use Calumet Baking Powder be-
cause 7 find il absolutely dependable
and uniform. and because it has more
leavening strength than most baking
powders. Like every other domestic
science lecturer, I am interested in re-
ducing the high cost of living and am
interested in Calumet. because it is
sold at a moderate price.
THE wholesomeness of the ingredi-
ents which are used in the manufac-
ture Of Calumet is attested by the

the President OF the United States and

MRS. FLORENCE AUSTIN CHASE
GIVES ADVICE TO HOUSEWIVES
One of Americas Foremost Authorities on
Scientific Cooking and Pure Foods

In my work on the lecture platform,
must use a baking powder which is
wholesome beyond question and which
is absolutely dependable, and Calumet
meets all my requirements.
An endorsement by Mrs. Chase Of
any particular product is without dis
pute absolute proof that that brand is
superior to all.
She has found through tests, as you
will find the first time you use Calu
met. that Calumet is the one baking
powder that absolutely insures uni
form results-that its wonderful leayen-
ing strength produces the lightest. most
healthful, fastest bakingS-that its
wholesomeness makes all bakings
nourishing and delicious. She has
found that Calumet is pure in the can
and pure in the baking-her tests prove
conclusively, as do those of millions Of
housewives who always use Calumet
that it goes farther than other baking
powders. If you now judge baking
powder according to price, you are
making a vital mistake.
Get can of Calumet at once on the
mopey-back guarantee-test il every
way-bake everything with it. II 1t
| does not beat your present favorite
brand in every way, your grocer is au-
thorized to refund your money-you
