should be either in the store or In use.
BE Rsasonable--Make up your mind
that while the war lasts you will try
to be less hard to suit. When buying
dry goods. don't insist on odd or I'M
usual shades. weights. etc. BY using
standard qualities you make 1t un-
for your merchant to carry
so large stock. Unnecessary variety
is waste of labor which is badly
needed in other ways.
Say "You Needn't Wrap 1.-THE
world is short Of paper. This is rails
ing the cost of it and in turn this is
paid by you in higher cost Of all
merchandise. Much, that you buy
doesn't need wrapping. Your mer
chant doesn't want to seem stingy. so
help him out by saying: You don't
need to wrap that"
Pay Cash for More-Use credit less
and cash more, especially In the little
things. Bookkeeping wastes labor. 1t
takes as much time to charge 10 cents
as it does thousand dollars. Make a
practice of paying for the little things
when you get them.

CONSERVE MAN.PoWER.

The following are few timely sug-
gestions which apply to every person
by suggesting what may seem very
trivial service, but in the aggregate,
like all other individual effort, becomes
very important factor in assisting
the government In it's preparation to
win the war. Our country needs every
hours service of every one of it's men
and women in necessary labor. Are
you doing your part to see that this
labor is not wasted in unnecessary
work?
Carry Your Paroels-When you ask
your merchant to deliver a parcel
which you could just as well take
home with you, you are using up labor
your country needs. Call or send for
your small orders instead Of telephon-
ing for them. Don't ask to have any
goods delivered after closing time.
All this takes extra men.
Return Fewer Goods-Buying goods
on approval is wasteful as too large a
proportion is returned through within
or caprice. This not only causes use
less labor. but ties up goods which

WHALE MEAT.
A company at Moss Landing. Cal.
has esta blished a packing house fol
whale meat. and will soon supply con-
sumers on the Pacific coast. The
whales are caught with trollers and
harpoon guns The whale is not q
fish, but a mammal, and the flesh is
sold in steaks and roasts, free from
bone and gristle, at s to 10 cents pei
pound, resembles good beef in flavor
texture and appearance. 1t has be-
come very popular wherever intro
duced, and the Pacific coast is taking
advantage of an almost unlimited sup
ply of whales in that region.

ANOTHER MEATLEss DAY.

On Tuesday afternoon of last week
the members of the Idaho Hotel &
Restaurant Mems association held
their regular meeting in the blue room
of the Owyhee hotel. This organiza-
ton includes all the hotels and nearly
all the restaurants and other places In
the city where meals are served to the
public. 1t was formed primarily for
the purpose of cooperating with our
state food administrator for the pur-
pose of conserving certain articles Of
food. When the association was first
formed one of its first acts was to es-
tablish Tuesday as a meatless day and
Wednesday as a wheatless day. In
order to conserve our sugar supply,
the association adopted the use of a
small card to be placed on the tables
or posted in conspicuous places, con-
tanning the words: Our government
requests you to use less sugar"
In order to further conserve the
meat supply, our government has re-
quested that Friday be designated as
IA meatless day which suggestion the
association adopted, making Tuesday
and Friday meatless days and We'd
nesday the wheatless day.

TINT,


Before the terrible catastrophe, as
result Of the French munition ship
which exploded in Halifax harbor by
collision with Belgian relief ship.
very few persons not actually engaged
in the manufacture of munitions knew
that there was such a substance as
Tri -nitro-tuluol, more commonly re-
ferred to as INT. This Is high
explosive and a very important in
gredient in the manufacture of power
full explosives. 1t Is obtained by the
reduction of coal through bi-products
ovens into its various gases, oils and
coke. In order to secure the greatest
possible quantity of TINT. the gas is
stripped of certain ingredients which
are then applied as tri-nitro- tuluol to
the production of munitions.

THE UPPER BERTH.

1t Is well at this time for our people
to understand that the great transpor-
tation lines of our country are exert
ing every effort to meet the enormous
ly increased demands of the govern
ment in moving troops and needed war
munitions. In many instances pas
senger traffic has been restricted by
running fewer passenger trains,
therefore, those who travel should bear
this in mind and make due allowance
for the very unusual situation.
Because Of the general disinclina-
ton on the part of the public to take
upper berths in sleeping cars, these
cars often travel without a full COM
plement of passengers. Because In
these times, with intense pressure
upon railroad facilities, especially To-
comotives, it is essential to have pas
senger trains utilized to full capacity
as we'll as freight cars. A certain
entitled advantages Of the Upper
Berth" in which the following points
in it's favor, not generally known, are
given:
The upper berth has a number of
advantages over the lower. In inc
first place a saving of 20 per cent in
the cost is offered; ventilation gener-
ally is better, the temperature more
even; and the noise arising from the
motion of the cars is less noticeable.
The spring mattresses used in the
upper berthsAare more pliable, and are
| in one set instead of two, as in the
| lower berth. The occupants of upper
berths are less likely to be disturbed
by people passing through the aisle.
Clothes hangers, mirrors and electric
/ light facilities are provided in the up
per berths as well as lower berths. I'm
! proved ladders are now being used and
all of the newer cars have individual
curtains for both upper and lower
berths, instead of the long ones.

COMMUNITY SINGING
IS GREAT SUCCESS
MOVEMENT FOR VOCAL MUSIC
PROVES POPULAR FOR NEW
ULM FOLKS.
OLD TIME AMERICAN AND GER.
MAN SONGS ARE SUNG BY
AUDIENCE

Community Singing in New sUlm was
proven success last Friday evening.
The meeting for that purpose was held
at the High School Auditorium on that
evening. While the attendance was not
50 large as had been anticipated, those
present entered into the spirit of the ac-
casion with real zest, and the auditorium
rang with the old time American and
German songs.
Rev. G.. G.. Holm presided and intro
duced President G. A. Ottomeyer Of the
Commercial Club, which together with
the Current News Club, had inaugural.
ed the movement for Community Sing
ing in this city. Mr.. Ottomeyer de
livered only short address, in which he
expressed pleasure that the project was
starting off so auspiciously.
Community Singing Old Practice
The Rev. Mr.. Holm, in explaining
the object of the gathering, said that
Community Singing was not new, but
that the practice aaad died out in recent
years. He declared, in fact that it was
many centuries old, and was practiced
back in King David's time, when the
songs sung were the Psalms, and now
that it was being revived he thought it
would be long time before it would die
out or slacken in interest. The ancient
Israelites sang the Psalms when they
gathered for worship and otherwise.
In the older days, Mr.. Holm said, when
there were fewer large cities than now,
there was much more community sing
ing.
Interesting Program
The singing was under the direction
of Miss Louise Peterson, musical in
structor at the High School; while Miss
Henrietta Hauenstein presided at the
piano.
The program opened with america, .
which was sung, the audience standing.
This was followed by The Old Oaken
Bucket" all present expanding their
chests and making the hall ring with
their vocies.
Then followed two of the most popu-
lar songs published in the German
language. '.Heidenroeslein'' and .Die
Lorelei." .,- u
Then came "Old Folks at Home .
and the program vas closed with The
Star Spangled Banner
I Miss Peterson had some difficulty.
on the first night Of the Community
Singing, in getting satisfactory rhythm,
and on two or three occasions requested
the audience torepeat averse.
Mrs. C. G.. REIN, of the committee.
at the close Of the program, requested
an expression as to the next meeting.
It was decided to leave the, matter in
the hands of the committee. Meetings
will be held every two weeks, prob
ably Friday evenings. The exact date
of the next gathering has not been de-
fnitely decided.
