The Delaware Women's Committee
on Conservation has issued the fol
lowing bulletin on Train Your Ap
petite to the women of Delaware.
This splendid instinct-appetite
so necessary for our existence, has
now more than ever to meet with
sudden notifications resulting from
the complexity Of modern life. During
this period OF the high cost OF living,
we cannot afford TO cater to whim'
sical fancies, Forget the pleasures Of
the palate and eat for life. health and
efficiency. Learn new foods and work
with the most inexpensive ones in or.
der to serve them in attractive and
palatable forms. Most OF the cheaper
foods require careful seasoning and
preparation to be fully appetizing.
We often think OF skim milk IN the
same light as water-having no food
value to speak OF. But, like butter
milk II contains all the constituents
OF milk, even fat to q very slight ex.
tent and thus is highly nutritious and
more easily digested than whole
milk. It may be used in puddings
sauces, milk soups, cereals, and nu.
merous other dlshes-thus reducing
the cost Of whole milk Why look sor

outlined yesterday before the House

editorials found was that perhaps
the speech was q trifle more pessi-
mistic as to the present situation
than was justified.
''Some members think the premier

tion of the highest interest not only
to the allies but to the Government
Of the United States.
It Is pointed out that, although at
times bulky, the Swedish diplomatic

fortably contained in the ordinary
mail pouches. and 1t Is held to be
most significant that, coincident with
the rupture of relations between the
United States and Germany and the
departure OF Count Won Bernstorn. IL
should suddenly have swollen to such
proportions as to need a trunk. The
fact also that the trunk was opened
in New York, where other papers
were presumably added, and sealed
again with consular seals, adds to
the mystery.
