BY utilizing to greater extent the

to waste. an immense saving in food
products could be effected. Tho

abandoned fields and along the road
sides and are usually free for the
gathering. Berries may be easily pre-
served by following the simple direc-
lions here given:
Preserving esrrleA
Practically the same methods are
to be followed in preserving and MAX
ing Jams Of all berries. Berries should
be gathered in shallow trays or bas-
kets and not in deep vessels, which
allow them to be bruised and crushed.
They should be uniform, ripe, and
sound. Select only large. firm berries
for preserving; the smaller and brok-
en- ones may BE- used for making Jam.
All berries should be carefully sorted
and lightly washed by placing in a
colander and pouring water over them
rather than putting them into a pan
Of water.
To retain the best possible color
and flavor, syrup for preserved berries
should be made Of berry Juice OBJ
tained by crushing, heating and
etraining the softer, broken berries.
Add pint Of sugar to each pint OF
berry Juice and allow to boil 10 min
utes. Weigh the choice perfect Der.
ries after removing the caps or stems
and allow pound Of sugar extra for
each pound Of whole berries. Add the
extra sugar to the syrup bring to a
boil and skim. Remove from the fire.

berries into It to prevent shrivelinR
and toughening the fruit. Place over
the flre and bring slowly to boil ana
simmer until the berries are heated

cook: the berries should remain
whole. Lift the berries from the

claim a rain on this day indicated

GERMAN RED CROSS ORDERLY
Even Frenchmen Were Impressed by
Old TeutOnS

There was even more than hu-
maneness, there was deep sympathy,
almost motherly pity, in the two old
German Red Cross orderlies who
waited on us-Freidrich ana Otto.
Friedrich was tall and stringy; we
had nicknamed him Fij-de-Fer; Otto
was short, Fat, and awkward, but so
good, SO generous in his feelings, so
tender in his way of looking at us,
SO prone to tears in spite of his white
hair and his fifty-two years, that even
we Frenchmen, who are supposed to
have a knack Of detecting the ridicu-
lous sentimentality especially in a
German, never made fun of him, says
Lieutenant F. S.. in the April Allan
tic. We simply could not. Every one
Of his tears was an offering Of the
heart. l do not remember having
ever seen a man to whose sincerity
and family virtues I would have sworn
as willingly as to Otto's. His round

$3.50 Fer Stricken
People in Europe

Approximately $3.50 was raised in
Bridgeport on Saturday through the
activities of the local organization of
Ukrainian Federation Of the United
States, for the relief of the war
stricken Ukrainians.
Up to this morning, with a number
of workers to be heard from, the
committee had received $500. It is es-
timated that more than $50 will be re-
ceived from other workers.
The money will be forwarded to the
Ukrainian federation Of the United
States, to be sent by that body to Uk-
rajnia. Five Bridgeport Ukrainian so
cieties were represented in the gen.
eral committee handling the enter
prise locally: Edward Gynovitz, pres
ident; Leon Bych, treasurer: John

 The day may soon dawn when a con gregation will purchase an entire em- balmed church service as one buys a can of soup.
 Hymns on the photograph, a sermon on the same instrument and prayers made to order! Does it sound fantas- | tic?
 Any sort of instrumental music in churches is relatively new. Even sing ing was taboo by many devout people in their churches for centuries. and still is by some But now trained choirs and great organs are compel ling features in nearly all churches of all denominations that can afford to pay the price.
 once heard the incomparable choir in St. Peters at Rome on an Easter morning Soon afterward l listened to | fine opera ill the Grand Opera house in Paris. The latter showed no better training than the former.
 So the world has gradually worked up from a state where it prayed and preached under a tree, until now it worships in mighty temples to the ae- compartment of all sorts of music. There are, however, a great many poor churches which cannot pay for good choirs, fine organs, excellent ser mons nor eloquent prayers. That is where science steps in to aid religion.
 What could be simpler than to have Caruso, Mccormick, Farrar and half a dozen other world-known vocalists each do about ten hymns for phono- graph?
 If one church had to buy the instru- ment and purchase such records it might more cheaply hire good singers. But a thousand poor churches might use the records a la the fashion of cir culating libraries. Pass them around.

The expression of one of the lead ing patriotic societies of Connecticut against any enemy aliens directing or leading public entertainments, was embodied in resolutions passed by the Connecticut Society of the Co., lonia1 Danes at it's semi-annual meting yesterday afternoon at Hart ford. The following resolutions were unanimously passed by the members:
 "Whereaas Our country being now at war, it becomes the duty Of all Americans to realize that the coun- try's interest must be placed above conzideration of profit or enjoyment, and,
 Whereas, We, as a patriotic so- ciety, have laid upon us the especial duty of encouraging true patriotism in all who come under our influence; be 1t, therefore,
 Resolved, That this society will not support or countenance any or ganization which furnishes instfuc- tion or entertainment for the public under the direction or the leadership of enemy aliens in order to dfscour- age the presence in our midst of those whose secret. activities may contribute to the comfort of our country's enemies and to the post ponement of victory for our flag"

SOME GOOD RECEIPTS FOR COOKING APPLES

Here is delicious apple dessert that calls for g pint of apple sauce. sweetened with .three-quarters of a cup of sugar and favored with the grated rind of half a lemon. Dissolve three-quarters of a package of gela- tine in little cold water and then add enough boiling water to make a cup of water altogether: Pour this on the apples and rub all through sieve. Place the bowl containing this, after 1t has cooled a little, in a pan of crack ed ice and water, Stir until it be- gins to thicken. Then pour into a mold and set in a cool place until firm.
 Apple chutney may be made from windfalls as we'll as from any other kind of apples, only care should be taken that the windfai1s are sour and that they have not become at all mealy. The old rule calls for 1 1-2 quarts of cider vinegar to IA large ap- pies, so in preparing this with the windfalls one has to judge the number of apples required by their size. Per- haps three windfalls would usually be the equivalent of one large apple, so in that case the rule would call for AZ apples. Cut out the stem and blow. but do not pare or cut up. and put them in a preserving kettle with 10 large onions and two cloves of gar .. lie. Boil with the vinegar. When this

U. s. EXPERTS
 ]. POTATO HINTS

Salads are dishes which are diff cult to prepare nicely, but, in addition to this, it is a question whether or not they are economical The average salad, for which all the Ingredients are brought fresh, is a more or less expenside dish, but if the salad is made of combination of left-overs- none of which would have been suf- ficient to make any suitable dish for a family, but the combination of which would make a salad materially adding nutritive value to the meal and lessening the amount of other fresh foods to be purchased-then the salad is an economical dish to Serve.
 Salads of fish, potatoes, nuts, vege- tables. cottage cheese, etc, make suit able substitutes for meat for lunch or supper, and if the amount of meat for, dinner is small, the addition of a small amount of such salad will add protein to the meal besides giving a pleasing variety.
 In order to be attractive and appe- tizing, a salad should have fresh, crisp greens-lettuce, romaine. endive. celery tips, watercress or others and the salad should be carefully prepared and mixed and the dressing added not very long before serving.
 Well-made salads satisfy the nor lr1al craving of the system for vege- table acids more healthfully and more effectively than do pickles. Where vinegar cannot safely be used, lemon juice is a satisfactory substitute.

 ''The Soul of Satan is a modern society play ,chock full of powerful situations and big dramatic moments that is sure to catch and hold the at-
