women ASKED TO
AID IN SURVEY
Of FOOD SAVING

The following is authorized by the
womans committee of the Council OF
National Defense:
The womans committee of the
Council of National Defense is asking
the Chairmen of the organizations for
whose activities 1t acts as clearing
house to get into close touch with the
state agricultural directors of extern
sion work and discover what has al
ready been done toward saving sur
plus fruits and vegetables. They are
also asked to discover what the fu-
ture plans of the agricultural college
and home economics extension ser
vice are in the various states, so that
they may work to the best advantage
without the overlapping of effort.
The work of these extension service
departments of the United States De
partment of Agriculture is closely con
cerned with food conservation, accord
ing to the statement sent to the var
ious chairmen by the womans com
mittee, and every effort should be
made to cooperate and to avoid
duplication of effort in the immediate
1y important work of saving perishable
fruits and vegetables.
I'm the last seven years. the COM
mittee states, several thousand can
ming and home demonstration clubs
have been organized by the govern,
ment under extension auspices. There
is a total of about 100000 members,
all of whom have been taught to con-
serve fruit and vegetables and other
foods by the most approved modern
methods.
Heretofore this extension work ha'
been done chiefly in rural communi-
ties. This city extension work will be
carried out by Federal and State au.
thorities in cooperation, and the State
director of extension work will be in
charge of each State.
The food administration is also in
close touch with the extension work
ers. both in Washington and in the diff
ferent states"
The woman's committee is urging
the cooperation of all forces concerned
with the immediate conservation Of
foods

Patriotic Women Give Time
and Money Making Red
Cross Comfort Bags

Tie comfort bags being nl"d at
the St Andrews parish hrUs" t"r the"
Red Cross were finished lat" !rzt"r.
day afternoon Those no or"
busy packing the cases during the
three days Of hard work were ready
to close the last case almost as soon
az the bags were finished.
Much credit is due 10 the Red
Cross workers and committees who
gave their time to making the com,
tort bags. Anyone wishing 10 help
in the sending Of Christmas cheer
TO the soldiers who arc giving their
lives for freedom may send money or
checks to 4. !. Castle. ~ N"rChanc
street.
Early Monday morning the women
of the committee which is making
comfort bags for the Red Cross, were
at 81. Andrew 8 parish house alTanG-
ing tables for workers and super
intending the placing Of the supplies
so that thew could be handled eXpcdi-
tiously.
The work has been placed in charge
OF Mrs. Richard Ivers who has chosen
Mrs. Henry Macfarlane. Mrs. George
r. Carter, Mrs Gerrit ?. Wilder, Mrs.
E. L. S. Gordon, Mrs. James Cock
burn, Mrs. VIM. L. Whitney and Ar
thur Berg as her committee.
The idea of the comfort bags is
to give the men in the trenches a
Christmas gift from Hawaii. The
headquarters in Paris will decide to
whom to send the comfort bags,
whether French. Belgian, Italian, Rus
sian or American soldiers.
There are 800 large bags and 500
button bags already made. The ma
terial for these were given out last
Monday, and taken home by various
women who called on their neighbOrs
to assist in the work. Some of the
women worked eight and 10 hours on
different days to get the bags finished.
At st. Andrews parish house one
long table running the length OF the
room held different articles such as
writing pads, envelopes, pencils, pipes,
tobacco, cigarets, chewing gum, tai
cum powder, tooth brushes, shoe
strings, soap, ointments, and small
bags containing buttons, threads,
needles, and safety pins.
The Promotion committee donated
600 Hawaiian postal cards and folders.
James Wakefield, manager Of the dry
goods department of T. H. Davies &
Co., gave his time and advice so that
the work should run smoothly, and
sent B. Clarke to take charge of the
packing, assisted by C. Benny. w. Wat
son, George Kahanu and David
Thompson. They packed the boxes as
fast as the women had the bags
ready. In all, SS cases we're packed,
averaging 1876 bags to a case.
Volunteers with trays picked up the
articles from the tables and carried |
them to a packer at a small table who |
was ready with a large colored hand.

placed. Folding the articles in the
handkerchiefs he tied them up with

tirles to send to the soldiers. There
were also five boy scouts who helped
keep order and save steps for the wo-
men who were working theoretically.
There were all nationalities repre-
scented in the work.
Some idea Of the amount needed
can be ascertained from the fact that
it took over 100000 articles to fill the
comfort bags. 4 great deal of credit
is due the patriotic women who have
laid aside all other duties so that
Christmas will! mean something to the
men who are giving their lives for
freedom.

q suspected German spy, probably has
better opinion Of the American
espionage system now than he did
when he left Petrograd. This much 10
surmised after hearing OF some Of his
experiences when he made q circuit
Of the Big Island after viewing the
volcano.
/ There is q former 25th Infantryman

Diplomat" Laskine showed up at his
gate.
To the former infantryman Laskins
didn't look just American and he
made him submit to q most rigorous
examination Of his personal effects.
Finally the guard discovered q small
box containing a whitish powder
which he feared might be anthrax
germs To add to his fear was the
fact that the box was labelled In q
language which looked German t.
him.
What's that, Mister" the negro de-
manded suspiciously of Laskine.
Tooth powder" the purported Rus
sian diplomat replied.
"Youse sure that's tooth powder?
1t looks mighty 'spicous to me" the
guard replied, while he puzzled over
some way to determine what was in
the box
Guess you better use some Of that
ere powder. Mister" he finally de-
cided with Solomon wisdom.
Laskine started to comply with the
order, but was stopped by the guard.

Laskine did as he was told and
swallowed some of the powder.
But to resume: Lsskine would
think more highly Of the American
espionage system If he only knew it
was a government agent who tells
this story to some Of his cronies. The
government man was present at the
searching Of Laskine and underwent
the same scrutiny himself on the trip
around the island on which he trailed
the German suspect.

thought all our seeret service work
was as open and ostentatious as was
his hold-up by the colored guard. He
ought to know better RAw that he Is

agent concludes with smile. :
