back to colonial days and use our
strength and sacrifice our minds, when
it lis possible for US to establish faa-
tories in our communities and save
the waste from our fields by the ton
rather than by the crate? Let as agi-
tate the wholesale conservation Of
field products by canneries and pach.
ing houses. This would not only free
us of drudgery but would add coEa-
mercial prestige to our state.
Just at present the most important
work to be done by our woman,s
clubs is the teaching of dietetics. We
recommend again a short cource Tor
every club or county, or at least
study classes, at which our women
can learn to use the foods we have,
our home products, to the greatest
advantage.
AS member of the Red Cross
committee of the federation, your
chairman Of home economics calls
your attention to the work which may
be conducted in this department The
course in dietities outlined in the Red
Cross text book is eGual to any Of its
kind. Red Cross kitchens may be es-
tablished for preparing jellies for the
hospitals and soldiers and collections
of the same made from among your
members Knitting and other needle
work may also be done in this d.
partment.
The home economics exhibit of this
convention was prepared at the re
quest of your chairman of home eco
nonlics by Miss Isabel Story and Mrs.
u. r.. Moorhead. home demonstration
agents of Hillsborough and Marion
counties. We are indebted to Mrs.
u. S. Bird and Mrs. Osco Windhorst
for the splendid exhibit of cassava
products. and to Mrs. Fuller and Miss
Lettie Watkins for valuable assist
ance IN arranging the exhibits. We
take this opportunity of publicly
thanking these ladies.
In closing we wish to acknowledge
the invaluable assistance of our hon
ored and loved president, Mrs. w. 9.
Jennings, through the entire year,
also many kind and helpful letters
received from our past general fed
Grafton home economics chairman,
Miss Helen Louise johnson, and our
present chairman, Mrs. j. C. CawIer,
and Miss Mary E. Sweeny and Miss
Pearl Macdonald, members of her
committee.
Respectfully submitted,

SOLDIERS THREE
France Pays Her Tribute to the First
Americans Killed ON Her Soil
(Louisville Courier-Journall

louisville Courier-Journal)
Americans will find it hard to read
without dimming eyes the tribute
paid by a French officer to the Amer
lean privates, Enright, Gresham and
Hay, the first to fall under the Amer
lean flag in France.
It is well TO reread and to re1hem-
Der the following:
"In the name of the til Division,
in the name OF the French army and In
the name of France / bid farewell to
Private Enright, Private Gresham
and Private Hay, of the American ar

"Of their own free viii they had
left prosperous and happy country
to come over here They knew war
was continuing in Europe; they knew
that the forces fighting for honor,
love of justice and civilization were
still checked by the long prepared
forces serving the power of brutal
dominion, oppression and barbarity.
They knew that efforts were still nee
essary. They wished to give up their
generous hearts, and they have not
| forgotten old historical memories,
while others forgot more recent ones.
"They ignored nothing of the cir
Icumstances and nothing had been con-
lcealed from em-neither the length
and hardships of war nor the violence
| of battle, nor the dreadfulness of the
weapons, nor the perfdy of the foe.
| Nothing stopped them. They adopt
ed the hard and strenuous life; they
lcrossed the ocean at great peril; they
took their places on the front by our
side, and they have fallen facing the
foe in a hard and desperate hand-to-
hand fight. Honor to theml Their
families, friends and fellow citizens
will be proud when they learn of their
/ deaths.
"Menl These graves, the first to
be dug in our national soil and only a
short distance from the enemy, are as
mark of the mighty land we and our
allies firmly cling to in the common
task, confirming the will of the peo-
pie and the army of the United
States to fight with US to a finish,
1
ready to sacrifice as long as it is nee
essary until final victory for the most
noble of causes, that of liberty of ma
tions, the weak as well as the mighty.
Thus the deaths of these humble sol
diers appeal to us with extraordinary
grandeur.
eve will therefore ask that the
mortal remains Of these young men be
left here, left with us forever. We
inscribe on the tombs, 1Here Lie the
First Soldiers of the Republic of the
United States to Fall on the Soil OF
France for Liberty and Justice" The
passerby will stop and uncover his
Ihead. Travellers and men of heart
will go out of their way TO come here

Ordinarily the rule laid down by
O'Hara should be obeyed, but In this

American flag, died in Europe for
Americas conception of liberty, free

peaceably and unassailed the open
roads of the world, by land or sea.
Nothing is more fitting than that

MRS. GARY's REPORT
Read Before the Federation of Wom-
ans Clubs at Its Recent
Meeting in Tampa

The following report of the home
economics department of the Florida
Federation of Women's Clubs was
read at the Tampa convention by Mrs.
w. &. Gary, of this city, chairman:
Four chairmen of home economics
have been in Office only since the last
meeting of the federation, therefore
the report of the home economics
work for the term of Office comedies
with the yearly report
The home economics work in the
state has been thoroughly launched
by the preceding chairmen and it was
therefore easy for your present chair
man to take up the work and continue
along the lines already established.
Then, too, the existing conditions hav-
ing brought about the great need for
food conservation and the necessity
for home makers knowing more about
their business, such as impetus has
been given to the work that instead of
the chairman carrying on the work,
the work has carried on the chair
man.
In February your chairman of home
economics attended the short course
at the Womsn's College In Tallahas-
see, at which time she addressed the
students of the short course and also
the regular students of the home eco-
nomics department of the college on
the subject "Home Economics in the
Florida Federation of Women's
Clubs" She also accepted an invita-.
ton to address the Woman's Club of
Tallahassee on the same subject.
In March circular letter was is
sued to the presidents of all clubs in
the federation Twenty-four of the
one hundred and fifty clubs responded
to this letter.
A second circular letter was issued
in October enclosing QUESTIONABLE
to which forty clubs replied.
During the past three months .
special home economics library has
been begun and is steadily growing
Three books were purchased by the
state board, and presented by the
home economics department of the
DeLand Woman's Club, one by Mrs
Preston Carson and several by the
Macmillan Co., Houghton Miffin Co.
tLongmans, Green & Co., and the j. B
Lippincott Co., publishing houses.
We highly appreciate these gifts
and extend our hearty thanks to the
donors. As has been before stated
this library will be leased to any club
or community on application to the
federation librarian by the payment
of one dollar for four months and In
coming freight.
On account of her attendance or
the short course in Tallahassee your
chairman OF home economics was un.
able to attend the board meeting In
Barlow but she attended the meeting
at Lawtey at which time she secured
the appropriation for the library
books.
In addition to the two circular let
ters about three hundred letters on de.
partment work have been written BY
your chairman of home economics
and number of clubs assisted II
forming programs before issuing the
program prepared by the state col
lege. She has made talks on home
economics and food conservation al

| the Inverness Woman's Club and on
two different occasions for the Belle
view Workers The bulletins of the
department of agriculture and other
literature on the subject have been
! largely distributed.
As local work your chairman of
home economics has served on the
Marion County Food Commission,
conducted the food conservation
pledge card campaign in Ocala and
assisted in the county campaign, or
ganized the unit of the Council of Ma
tional Defense in Ocala and Inverness,
and secured for the county home DEM
onstration agent an increase of salary
with increase of services from ten
months to eleven and one half.
We consider the greatest achieve
ment of this department for the past
year to be the food conservation short
course at the Women's College IN Tai
lahassee in September, for which we
are indebted to President Conradi and
Miss Agnes Ellen Harris. Many of
the clubs sent representative to many
communities. This short course was
unique at the time for it was the
first short course planned for the
special purpose of teaching food con.
servation TO club women in this coun-
try. Just after Miss Harris had pre-
pared the program for this course the
government issued the bulletin on
"Ten Lessons in Food Conservation, y
which bulletin is now recommended
for short course work.

known to all as the state agent of
home demonstration work, is mem

mittee on home economies. She has
recently issued letter to all club
presidents explaining her leave of ah-
sence from the state and stating that
she will return permanently to our
state in six months, in the meantime
making monthly visits to us.
Working directly under Miss Harris
now, we have Mrs, Jessie Rich Arms
of Jacksonville, whe is known as the
state urban worker. Government
workers will be directed by Mrs
Arms in Tampa, Jacksonville, Miami
Key West and Pensacola Their work
corresponds to that of the home DEM
onstration agents but is carried on IN
cities instead of the country. Many
clubs have anticipated this movement
of the government and have some
months ago appointed chairmen IN
their clubs to look after the city work
4 of food conservation.
Another movement which is being
stated is to establish in each town a
flood facts" library where shall be
on file and for public reference all
bulletins issued by the United States
department of agriculture and other
publications bearing on the subject OF
