 other seasoning to taste when serv- ing.
 In canning fruit without sugar, can the product the day it is picked. Pull stem, seed and clean fruit by placing in strainer and pouring cold water over it. Pack the product carefully

If tin cans are used it will be found advantageous to plunge them into cool water immediately after sterilization to cool them quickly

ageously placed the burden of taxa tion upon those who can best bear up under it-this is a record that no na- ton has excelled. It is a record that shows purpose, an unflinching pur- pose.
 We of America, it is conceded. know how to make money, and we will prove that we know how to make war, whole-hearted resolute war; war that means men by the million and money by the billion. war. that means heart perhaps, a certain self-respect, a world that men can grow in.
 We shall make war in earnest, for we know that if Germany wins. the world will turn aside from the sys- tenn of law and liberty which we know and exalt that military caste and sys- tenn which is the historic enemy of personal liberty. We make war in France that we may not be compeH- ed to do battle here. Let Germany have Canada or Mexico, or even Cuba, and we would go to our daily work, like the pilgrim fathers, with our guns in our hands.
 '~This is in truth most distinctive ly our war, for we claim proudly that we gave the impulse to Europe which b0kuOo us 4cSO IoW 0A U >ASAhAS0AN'os and for that reason in fighting with France, England, Italy and Russia we fight for those who follow in the way we led, true children of the American conception of government as a servant, not a master"
 President Rhett in his address said
 Business has been groping in the dark because 1t finds the very founda' tions of commerce have been upturn ed. Demand and supply can no long CT be permitted to control prices, be cause the extraordinary demands O the government have completely un balanced the scales.
 '-The president has well said that war is not alone battle of armies bu of the material resources of the na i tions involved in which every nationa resource must be called into play. Le me emphasize the primary and para
 mount purpose of this convention. Gu 1 countrymen want to know just nov i the business man feel about this wal 1 Our allies, likewise, want to know, tn l business men of America will let tn world know that whatever the cost whatever the sacrifice, they propose t 1 place every resource at their comman ! behind the government and its allie | in their determination to see that lib erty, democracyss civilization and hu manity prevail"

GERMANY ENDEAVORINC TO MASTER
 THE WORLD WITH THIGH ExP0SIvES|
 AND LOW INTRIGUE" "---SEC. LANE

Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 19.--AAmer- ican business has no intention or prof. iting at the expense of the government in the sale of war supplies, R. G. Rhett of Charlestown. S. C.. president of the chamber Of commerce of the United States, declared here in opening the war convention of American business and industrial leaders.
 There undoubtedly have been cas- es where selfishness and greed have outweighed patriotism. but the cases have been exceptional" he said, tand the great body of business men have invariably stood squarely behind the government in its plans and pro posals. =
 The war convention, called by the chamber of commerce to plan closer cooperation between the government and industry, heard speakers discuss the problem of obtaining sufficient war supplies at fair, prices. Among those on the program for addresses were Secretary of War Baker, Secretary of the Interior Lane, Frank A. Scott, chairman of the war industries board; George M. Reynolds, of Chicago. and Boris Bakhimeteff the Russian ann bassador. Business men asking their duty to the nation 1n war were LOIu sDy 0ecr e- tary Lane to change the word duty to opportunity and seek the answer from the khaki class American boys who are crossing the ocean.
 'eWe have come upon a new day and new philosophy" he said. We are to judge men henceforward not by
 what they have but by what they give"
 The secretary declared that the Uni ted States, having determined to fight Germany's efforts to master the world
 with high explosivec and low intrir- gue,' was making full steam ahead. 1 ':If anyone doubts that" he added 'slet him look at the record of congress which has come in for so much. deri-

first of all to obtain a sworn statement from him and to do this charge was laid against 'sX''' of trading with the enemy, in connection with which Deputy Turmel was called as a wit ness. He, however, frustrated this proceeding by refusing to obey the summons.
 It was stated tonight that the ju- dicial auth critics, as result of the facts obtained throug,. Magistrate Gnbert's investigations, contemplate changing this original charge to the much graVer one of reasonable deal ings with the enemy, which is punish able by death. Should the charge lbe changed the case would be transferred from the civil to the military courts. Berne, Sept. 19.-The Swiss tele. graphic agency has received a tele. gram from Zurich relative to a state. ment made by the French deputy Fur. mel that he received a sum of money from the. Swiss federal bank for ad vice. The directors of the Swiss fed eral bank, according to the telegram

 any dealings with Turnael.

 There arc two types of standardized vessels of 5000 tons carrying capac- ity-single deck and two deck ships. This one is single decker. It also is intended to construct two similar types of 5000 and 5000 tons dead weight each Other types are under consideration.

LOS ANGELES, March Z. - That
Clarence J. Griffin will not play for

ROYALS WIN OYER
LAWRENCE QUINT
0utroII and 0utkid Visitors,
With Congressman PheIan
As Spectator.

It's hard enough to be beaten but
it's worse to have to stand a lot of
kidding before your own selected
audience. That's just what happened
to the Lawrence, Mass, bowlers in
their engagement with the crack
Royals at the Royal Alleys yester-
day.
The Lawrence men evidently thought
they could hand the Royals some
thing in the joshing as well as the
bowling line and invited Congressman
Michael Phelan, OF Massachusetts,, to
see them turn the trick.
Are Out-KIdded.
Mr.. Phelan accepted and sat for
several hours and watched Tom Kee-
gan's rollers receive the most con-
summate drubbing handed out by the
Royals in many a day, and in addi-
tion found their New England kid
ding, effected with much rolling OF
the RS, more than outdone by the
Royals gift OF CAB.
Without trying seriously, the
Royals totsled 2,7s3 against 2,61s for
Keegan and Company. 1t is to be
noted, however, that several of the
Lawrence bowlers rolled Al inch
balls, which are not as effective
against the type OF pin used here
as the regulation 5-inch sphere.
Given n Banquet.
Following the match the visitors
were given a banquet by the Royals
at Eckstein's, with Congressman
Phelan as the guest of honor. More
than forty were in on the eats, and
were entertained with remarks by
Congressman Phelan, Captain Kee-
gan. Captain HALEY, Manager Dunn,
of the Lawrence team, who, by the
way, is commodore of the Lawrence
Yacht Club, and others. Harvey T.
Rogers was the POSTMASTER.
