English Housemaids Are Being TaugI
to Help ProdL
BY BERTHE KNATVoLD MELLET
London, April England is mo-
bilizing its house maids for the ma
tons defense.
Mary Ann, the house maid, has laid
- her hand to the food chopper, enlist
ed to find substitutes for the potato
and to penetrate the alien mysteries
of the ragoUt.
She is pledged to save matches and
tea and sugar and convert the bread
crusts into crumbs for frying.
, Mary AIMS patriotism is put on a
basis Of her ability to tell the nobs
upstairs, when they ask for a second
helping off the joint, that they will
have to wait until the next day when
the roast viii reappear before them

Mary Ann is the guardian of the

that its power lives or dies by the
stock pot, the bread box-and the
waste bin. So England is calling on
her cooks.
Mary Ann, 5000 and more strong,
attended a mass meeting at Old
Drury in London, arranged by the
food controller expressly for her.
The chairman was Shepherd of
Lady RothschiId's household. Others
on the platform were Lord Balfour of
Burleigh, Mrs. Peel, director of Wom-
ans Service in the Ministry of Food,
and Harry Lauder.
Mary Ann applauded when Mrs
Peel made a plea against waste and
waxed enthusiastic over LADDERS

milk" as a diet which had produced
and could still longer produce the
stuff that nations are made of.
She rose proudly to her feet in-

Law Recently Passed Permits Town.
ships to Sell Explosives to
Settlers,

A bill has passed bob of the legis
lature houses providing for the sale
Of dynamite to settlers by the town.
ships at cost.
This bill, introduced by Senator
Leonard A. Nord of International
Falls, permits townships to purchase
dynamite in any quantities. This
dynamite may then be sold to the
settlers at cost and be paid for by
the settlers in five annual INSTALL
ments, which bear interest at the
rate of six per cent. In order that
the township may be protected, the
amount due from the settler is re-
garded as lien on his property and
is to be considered and handled much
as a tax or special assessment. Dy-
Mantle is to be sold only to resident
settlers for the purpose Of improv-
ing their lands. The township may
purchase in any quantity and may
bond itself to secure the necessary
funds.
At about the same time another
bill of the same nature was passed.
This provides that the county may
purchase seeds and sell them to set
tiers at cost, the same to be paid for
in the same manner as the settler is
to pay for the dynamite purchased
This act is not only a financial aio
but will encourage the use of pure
seeds.
Cook county will feel the good re-
suits Of these measures. When thu
settler may borrow money, through
the federal government, at a five pei
cent rate, buy his dynamite at cost
through the township, and his pure
seed grains through the county, ther
will agriculture and development ii
this section receive a real encourage
ment.

PASS The APPLES

H. Van Antwerp, Kentucky.
When every pool in Eden was mir
ror,
That unto Eve her dainty charms
proclaimed,
She went undraped, nor thought it
was an error,
Because she had not learned to
be ashamed.
Twas only when she'd eaten of the
apple
That she became inclined to be
prude.
And found that evermore she'd
have to grapple
With the much-debated problem
of the nude.
Thereafter she devoted her atten-
tion,
Her time and all her money to
her clothes.
And that was the beginning Of con-
vention,
And Modesty as we'll, we should
suppose.
But now reactions come in fash
ions recent,
And clothes conceal but little
from the men,
It does seem in the name of all
that's decent
The apples should be passed
around again.
