FEEDING MANY HUNDRED
 MEN AT STATE PIER
Enormous Amount of Food is Con- l stunned There Daily By Naval Re-
 serves.

Few people realize the number of men who are given meals at the state pier at New London: of the enormous quantity of food that is served to these men. How carefully it is inspected and prepared, and how little. of it, through the system of the commissary departments, goes to waste. Then you will be surprised at the variety. There wouldn't any of you object to chicken with ice cream Sunday. Well, this is- on the regular Sunday menu.
 This week there. are appro<->Saately 5S0 Naval Reserves taking meals, three tines day a tthe state pier. That number doesn't feaze the com missary. Next week he expects about 400 more. That is a little short of a thousand.
 Then the 300 Chileans who came to New London on their own submarines are being fed by the government at the state pier. They will be there for two months more, at least, and con tinue to be fed.

Honors are even between gracemul lines and vevet-they hold first place and reign together in the realm of millinery for this season. First of all a hat must be graceful: it may be large or small, soft or. straight brimmed high crowned or not, but its lines must be alluring A dearth of trimming was forgiven in. early mod els and almost forgotten-we were so carried away by the beauty of their lines.
 Velvet, plain and panne, came in with the first hats of the new season and will remain until winter Is gone. Flowers are beginning to blossom on them as the time for the snow to fly draws near. Fur in bands, with flow CTS or ribbon ornaments. has settled itself for a definite residence on hats for midwinter. Two favorites, among many beautiful shapes. are shown here, one of them harboring three ribbon roses and the other rejoicing in ribbon sash and band of fur.

RAILROAD COOPERATING WITH FOOD ADMINISTRATION No Beef to be Served on Dining Cars
 Tuesdays.

The New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad company announced Friday that for the duration of the war all Tuesdays on its dining cars will be beefless. The company is also cooperating with the United States Food Administration in other ways and all menus are prepared in accord ance with suggestions made by the Food Administration The following notice is printed on al menu cards on the company's dining cars:
 This Railroad Is Member of the
 United States Food Administration
 Europe is short of food, due to the diversion of millions t men from production to war, to the occupation of land by the armies to the isolation of markets by belligerent lines. The supplies in the worlds larder for the next twelve months are now known. They are too short to support our allies unless every man, woman and child enters national service to support the Food Administration.
 We are cooperating with the Unit ed States Food Administration, and our menu is prepared in accordance with suggestions made by the Food Administration.
 The problem that confronts Ameri- cans is to feed our allies this winter by sending them as much food as we can of the most concentrated nutri-
  These foods are wheat beef. pork, dairy products and sugar.
 The way we can best help to meet this problem Is to eat less of these foods and more of other foods of which we have an abundance. and to waste less of all foods.
 Eat less white bread, substituting bread or rolls made from corn. rye, or from mixed flour.
 Use more chicken, hare. rabbit, duck, goose, fish. lobster. oysters. clans, sea foods and egg dishes of all sorts.
 Economic milk and cream ex- cept for children. Use cheese gener- ally.
 Use more vegetables and potatoes. Our supply of these products is in abundance. Their bulk prohibits ex- port to our allies.
 If by substituting foods of which we have plenty for those that we must ship to our allies we can save per person one pound of wheat flour. two ounces of fat, seven ounces of sugar and seven ounces of meat week, we can maintain ourselves on a full diet and still supply the deficiency in our allies food. When these small items are multiplied by 100000, 900 they as- sume gigantic proportions and offer a complete solution of our problem.
