Nj. nj. CORNER.
What the mothers say and think:
WE WANT PEACE

We women are being kept in ignor-
ance, being lulled to sleep, by false
and misleading statements. Our boys
are being trapped into our army and
navy and our wise law makers
war makers-are the cause of it all.
We know a few things even if we
havnt time to read much, and if we
do have to do a lot of mems work
while they loiter in town to discuss
the war news. We know that its been
hard times for months past with high
prices, scarcity of cars, ETC., and this
not due even, to the European war,
but to the war of labor and capital in
our own country, surely we have
enough to do to keep peace here at
home without getting into more trou-
BILE with our neighbors. We need
all our farmers and laboring men to
till the fields-at the best there will
be little enough to feed the world,
Feed, not fight, the enemy" some
man has said. "If thine enemy hun
ger, feed him." says the Good Book /;
the charge holds good today as ever.
But we have no enemy that we know
of; perhaps we have an adversary
Make peace with thine adversary
quickly" We boast that America can
live without the rest of the world;
then why not make a trial of it now
during this European squabble? 1t
cannot last very long; if we let them
alone,-keep out of the way and do
not furnish them weapons.
1--WE call it a very fiimsy excuse
that we may need England's help in
the future, in case of war. We say
this: If we have war. it will be our
own fault; we are still hoping former
Ambassador Bernsdorf will be able
to intercede in our behalf"

Good Advice For KingstIee, Too.

At the present season." said DR.
Goodwin, health officer, we are bless
ed in abundance with certain foods
of more or less value.
Among the most plentiful now
are watermelons and cantaloupes, or
they appear to be. If you will spend
few minutes looking around your
own neighborhood, watermelons and
cantaloupes rinds can be seen almost
anywhere, except in garbage cans or
other receptacles. Many people do
not realize the fact that such negli-
gence may cause untold sickness in
the vicinities where these rinds are
distributed. Consumers of these par
ticular foods are urged to deposit
the rinds in containers and keep them
covered. Do not allow the containers
to remain uncovered as they are dan
gerous. Place the garbage in spot
easily accessible to the city garbage
carts, and the containers will be emp
tied often. The active cooperation of
the people of Florence in this respect
is earnestly urged, and will be highly
appreciated by the city health de-
partment. Florence Times.

War Meals on the Diners.

Patrons of dining cars will find a
number of changes when they 20 to
order their meals in the future as a
re suit of resolutions adopted by the
special committee on national defense
of the American Railway Association.
Here are some of the innovations:
Tarts instead of pies.
Only cornbread. corn mullins, rye
bread. oat cakes or buckwheat cakes
for breakfast and luncheon.
No toasted wheat bread to be serv-
ed under chops, squads. entrees or
game.
No veal. lamb, SQUAD chicken or
SQUAD turkey.
Small portions o. bread. butter,
meats, milk. cream and sweets.
These and other food-saving rules
were worked out in conference be-
tween Herbert C Hoover and repre-
sentatives of the commissary depart
ments of the railroads.
The proposals resulted from a sug-
gestion made by the president of the
Railway Dining Car Superintendents'
Association. They were submitted to
the advisory committee on elimina-
ton of the food administration.
The rules will apply to dining cars
all over the country.
