HOUSEWIVES DAILY
ECONOMY CALENDAR
BY Frances Marshall
THE HOUSEWIFE AND THE
PAPER.

Copyright, 1917, by the Mcclure News
paper Syndicate)
Did you ever look upon the regular
perusal of the daily paper as an i'm
portant part of your task as good
housewife?
Perhaps not, and perhaps you are one
of those housewives who feel a certain
guilty prick of the conscience If you
pause from your work before II o'clock
in order to read through the paper.
Really you should feel more guilty If
you omit this perusal.
Always the daily paper has real news
Just on the business side of housekeep-
ing Fluctuations in food prices are
recorded in the news of the day and
surely the housewife ought to keep her
eyes open for news of this sort. Last
autumn before Thanksgiving and again
before Christmas the papers spent
considerable space for several days to
the subject of the price of turkeys.
Housewives who made a practice OF
reading the papers were well aware OF
the prevailing prices and had an OPP
portunity of comparing the prices
quoted by their own butcher with those
quoted in the papers. They also had
the courage, impaired by knowing that
other women were doing the same, to
refuse to buy turkeys at all at the adj
vanced price. Later they might read
in the paper that owing to surplus CT
these holiday birds after Christmas
prices had been reduced.
One of the most potent factors in the
remedying of unjust prices of food is
the concerted action of the buyers
and the very large majority of food
buyers arc the women in the homes.
In case such boycott is in progress or
contemplation it is highly desirable for
the housewife to know it.
From the point of view of news, ad
vertiscments in the papers are of
prime importance. for the advertise
ments reflect as clearly as anything
else the conditions in demand and sup
ply They are daily. bulletin boards
where the housewife can learn of the
chapest places to buy without taking
the trouble to go the rounds of all the
stores. Sales in household supplies. in
linens and cotton goods are of real
news interest to the housewife, al
though they are printed as advertise
ments. For no reputable mercantile
concern would think of or dare to adj
vertise special prices when no such
special prices existed. Especially is
this so concerning advertisements
within the past year or so. The time
of the old fashioned fairy tale ad-
vertising\ has in large measure
passed.
Now that the question of economical
household management and dietetics is
one so much discussed, one about
which so many important experiments
are taking place, the papers contain in
tereSting news for the housewife along
this line. The fact that a recent diet
squad gained weight and health on a
diet the food cost of which per person
was about % cents IA day, is fact any
up-to-date housewife cannot afford to
miss, and if she be eager to get what
ever help she can she will be especially
eager to read the details of these ex-
perimentS.

DOM CLASS'17

Brunswick, Me-, March 6.-(SpeciaD
That the class of 1917 which gradu-
ates from Bowdoin college this year Is
one of high scholarly attachments is
shown by the fact that in the recent
awarding of provisional commence
ment parts, 33 of the 81 members of the
class were chosen to write competitive
theses for commencement. AS this
honor is only open to those who have
attained a grade of three fourths AS
and BIS throughout their college
course, this number is extraordinary.
From a conservative estimate, more
over, probably six men of the class will
make Summa Cum Laude, four Will
make Magma Cum Laude. and sixteen
will make Cum Laude. Last year four
members Of the class made Phi Beta
Kappa, and several more will win the
key this year.

automobile owners in the State of
Maine, many Of whom are residents of

here have responded to the word sent
out by the Maine Automobile Associa-
ton. through its President, George T.

In the majority OF cases cars of
practically every description. includ-
ing pleasure cars and motor trucks,
have been volunteered for use by the
United States Government, while many
of the owners have also offered their
services to Opnrate the machines 1t is

80 to "a. who express their Willingness
although too old for actual service" to
do anything that can do to help our

Among the 15) who have already an
swered the call" are many doctors
and dentists, who not only volunteer
their cars ttut likewise offer their pro-
fessional services in c1se they should
be required. Thus far two women
have joined the ranks. the latest appli-
cation for membership in the automo-
bile reserve coming from Miss j. C.

ply came from Miss Lorena M. Reed
