RED CROSS SAVE BELGIAN
ORPHANS

The American Red Cross is assist
ing In caring for Belgian orphans
who were carried by their captors
into Germany and who are beginning
to be released. The first groups,
consisting Of 500 children each, have
been received back into the Allies
territory.
The return OF the first liberated
orphan prisoners In Belgium is re-
ported In a cablegram from the
American Red Cross Commission TO
France. These homeless children
sick and under-nourished, all be-
tween four and thirteen years OF age
will receive the best possible care
from the American Red Cross. which
recognizes in them Belgium's hope
for It's coming generation. The cable
says:
THE Red Cross is aiding the work
OF the Queen OF the Belgians for the
children OF her country. Thousands
OF under-nourished. sick and orphan
children are in Belgium today. and a
home and care must be provided for
them. The Germans are willing to
allow some OF these children to be
sent out OF the country.
Twenty miles from Limoges in
the southern center OF France. on a
hill outside Of a little town called
Troche. stands the famous monastery
OF La Grande Chartreuse. unoccupied
at present. The climate there is won
derful. Roses bloom all the year
round. There is plenty of fresh run
ming water. The buildings are su-
perbly placed and strongly built. in
cluding all kinds of constructions
adapted to housing. feeding and pro-
viding for more than a thousand peo-
pie. Permission was given tc use
this place for the Belgian children.
and It was rented from the Govern
ment by the Red Cross. which sup
plies the funds for the work, while
the personnel and management are
provided by the Belgian committee.
"On October 18th the first 500
little Belgian boys and girls between
four and l3 years old arrived after
their long trip thru Germany. and a
week later 500 more. all collected by
the Committee de Secours National
de Belgique. In this wonderful old
monestary the Red Cross hopes to
bring back to life and vigor these
children, in whom lies the hope OF
Belgium"

FALSE REPORTS CONCERNING
DESTRUCTION OF VEGETABLES

Norman. Okla, Nov. 2S.-(Spe-
ciaD-For some time sensational ar
ticles have appeared in the newspa-
pers to the effect that in some places
large quantities OF decaying onions,
potatoes and cabbage were piled
along railroad tracks, particularly in
Chicago, and that there was evident
ly conspiracy on the part OF pro-
duce men to limit food supplies and
thus reap high prices.
The cases In Chicago have been
Investigated by the Illinois Federal
Food Administrator. Assistant U. S.
Attorney General and the U, s. Secret
Service men at Chicago. The inves-
tigation revealed the fact that less
than two per cent of the potatoes ar
irving in Chicago during October
was lost because of frost. What po-
tatoes had been dumped were frozen.
Every year frozen vegetables are
dumped. No evidence was found that
there had been willful destruction
and no violation of law.
Delayed transportation. changes in
the weather, unskilled grading and
loading are likely to result in loss
OF vegetables, and often unfounded
reports are circulated that efforts
are being made to increase profits by
destroying food.

AMERICAS WHEAT TRADE

Our total exports Of wheat for the
year ending June 80, 1917. show an
increase OF 7s.451.036 bushels or
close to 10 per cent over the pre-
war average.
An astonishingly large increase in
imports. especially from Canada. is
shown; but the excess Of exports over
imports for the past year amounts to
over 100000 bushels, equivalent
to about half a bushel of wheat from
every man. woman and child in this
country.
The Central powers have received
practically no wheat from the United
States from 1915. Before the war
Germany received 1;.5 per cent OF
our total exports. Shipments OF
wheat from this country to Greece
have increased over 400 fold. and
Switzerland. which before the war re-
ceived no United States wheat. i'm
ported from US last year over one
third as much as formerly went to
Germany.
Economy in the use Of wheat here
In America has helped to make the
large exports possible. but with the
gradual depletion of food supplies in
Europe still greater economy OF
wheat at home, together with large
crop in 1918, are essential for the
success OF the Allies cause.
Thus in preparing for q new
year we have these facts Of vital i'm
portance to American farmers. Oul
wheat must be exported on q huge
scale; 1t goes to our own troops. Il
cur Allies and to neutrals which are
in need, and whether peace comes OF
not, the U. s. Government guaran
tees a price of 50 a bushel for the
1918 crop at primary interior mar
kets.

through the persistence of two old

DECEIVING ONES HUSBAND Or WIFE
BY LAURA JEAN LIBBEY

day She thinks she is perfectly justi-
fed in this course. The husband OF
such a woman never knows really
where he is a."
He believes that it actually costs
more to run the house than it really
does. How much better it would be
for the wife to take her husband into
her confidence, telling him that she
made purchases. under the figure and
she has put by the balance for their
mutual good later on.
! AS for deceiving him about the hab-
its of her home folk that is quite an
other story Their faults and their
folles are their own affairs. She has
no right to exploit them. If he flnds
them out he cannot blame her for
keeping mum. He will have all the
more confidence in her, realizing she
will keep his affairs TO herself and
not tell them about his Shortcomings
or troubles in a burst of confidence.
Married couples should be careful
as to which tells each other the tifst
fib. and stop uttering it as it PUSHES
to their lips. To love truly each must
have confidence in the other. If either
is suspected of deliberately classifying
to the other, one does not know how
far he or she could trust the other.
Little fbs lead TO graver and greater
ones.
Happy is the husband who can say
in all truth, MY wife has never know
ingly deceived me even in the most
trifling affair" Happy is the wife
who can say the same of her husband.
But is there such a one?

Most of European Rulers
Have Also Become MonarchS
In the World of Business

Royalty does other things than rul-
ing. In the business world many of
| Europe's crowned heads are said to
have achieved notable success, the fol-
lowing examples of which are pointed
out by writer in Tit-Bits:
The king of Spain is the proprietor
of large motor and bicycle factory
near Madrid.
The kaiser runs q cafe at POtsdam
close to his castle gates. He also re-
ceives large dividends from a lager
beer brewery in Hanover; and he is
the sole owner of the big and flourish
ing porcelain works at Cadinen, which
return him profit of about per cent
on a capital of S500,000.
King Peter of Servia owns a shay
ing saloon and chemists shop in Bel
grade. Before the war, his majesty
was the agent for well-known
French motor car.
The queen of Holland supplies
from her dairy, near the palace at Het
Loo, large proportion of milk CON
sumed by buyers in Amsterdam.
Before the war the king of Wurt-
temberg drew a net profit Of at least
$4,000 a year from the hotels he
owned in the Black Forest.
The beautiful queen of sorely strick-
en- Roumania started. few years ago,
a factory for manufacturing tooth
picks. SO successful was this enter
prise before the war, that her majesty
was able to make quite comfortable
income out of it.
