Dear Evelyn:
/ see the markets are being stocked
with spring vegetables, so I'm going
to tell you how to cook them.
First let me emphasize that vege-
tables should not be put to cook in
cold water.
After carefully washing, put them
right into boiling sailed water. If
cooked in an uncovered vessel their
color is kept better. Green vegetables
should boil rapidly during the cook
ing, but for potatoes the boiling
should be gentle so the potatoes will
not be broken. All vegetables are
valuable for the mineral matter they
contain, so we must retain as much
of it as possible. In order to do this,
vegetables such as beans, peas, as
paragus, spinach, ETC., should be cook
ed in little water as possible, then
the mineral salts are not lost.
Strong tasting vegetables, like tur-
nips, onions, ETC., SHOULD be cooked
in large quantity of water.
AnoCner pOlnI, Evelyn, concerning
accuracy in cooking is to remember
that if you are told to boil a vege-
table thirty minutes and you cook it
forty minutes, it will be toughened
and the texture changed. Over
cooked vegetables are indigestible. If
you put vegetables in water that is
not boiling, and add the salt later
you will have faded watery results
especially with peas and string beans,
You said you didn't like to cook
cabbage because of the odor they give

RED CROSS SEAL PRIZE WINNERS

New York, A pril 18.-Red Cross
seal prize winners were announced
today by the National Association
for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis. The localities winning
remnants for the largest per capital
sales, in each of the ten classes, di-
vided according to population, are I:
Thornburg, Pa; Hershay, Pa; River
Falls, Wis; Sewickley, Pa; Norris
town, N. j.; Elmira, N. Y; Troy, N.
Y; Rochester, N. Y; Buffalo, N. Y;
and Brooklyn, N. Y.
An unusual number of new records
were made by the smaller cities and
villages in the last Christmas sale.
There were 235 localities selling five
or more of the little holiday stickers
per capita in countrywide sale that
raised more than $1,000,000 for tuber-
culosis work. The little town of
Hershey, Pa, with less than 1000
population, took the lead. Here
there were nearly 70 seals sold for
each man, woman and child in the
town.
In addition to the inter-city con-
test, an interstate competition was
held between states in three different
classes, the first covering populations
up to 1,250,000, the second from that
figure to 2,40o,000; and the third over
2.400,000. The winner in the first
class is Wyoming, with a per capita
sales of 2.68; in the second class Min
nesota, with per capita of III; in
the third class New York with a per
capita of 2.07. Holders of second
places are Connecticut, with a per

Sioux City, Ia, April 21.-High
school girls of this city are designing
and making their own dresses at a
saving of from $40 to $25 on each
gown.
All the girls have to pay for is the
material. Teaching them how to
make the dresses is part of the edu-
cation given them in the public high
schools. When done, the girls may
either wear or sell them.
More than 70 girls are already
taking the course, which is in its
first year. NJ. G. Clark, superin-
tendent of city schools, is heartily in
favor of the plan.

THE FREEDOM OF THE SEAS.

You dare to say with perjured lips:
eve fight to make the ocean
free
You whose black trail of butchered
ships
Bestrews every sea
Where German submarines have
Their horrors! Have YOU never
thought
What you call freedom men call
piracy?
Unnumbered ghosts that haunt the
wave
Where you have murdered cry you
down,
And seamen whom you would not
save
Weave now in weed-grown depths
a crown
Of shame for your imperious head,
A dark memorial of the dead
Women and children who you left
to drown.
Nay, not till thieves are set to guard
The gold, and corsairs called to
keep
Ger peaceful commerce watch and
ward,
And wolves to herd the helpless
sheep,
Shall men and women look to thee,
Thou ruthless Old Man of the Sea,
To safeguard law and freedom on
the deep!
In nobler breeds we put our trust;
The nations in whose sacred lore
The Fought" stands out above the
must"
And honor. rules in peace and war
With these we hold in soul and heart,
With these we choose our lot and
part
Till liberty is safe on sea and
shore.

States Ambassador to Holland.

WHY NOT A THEATRICAL
CLUB?

There is nothing but praise heard
on every side for the bright musical
comedy, which was given on Thurs
day evening at the opera house under
the auspices of the Pensacola chap
ter of the American Red cross So
ciety.
Mrs. Barnes has had a great many
notable successes as a director, but
never has she accomplished anything
quite so good as in "The Microbe of
Love-" One of the parts which. was
especially clever, she created herself.
This was Martha Enterprise. the
role, taken by Miss Velma Maura,
proving one of the leaders of the
performance.
The Spinister's Chorus, too, was
original with Mrs. Barnes, and re-
ceived a high degree of praise. One
of the parts which was unusually
good, was that taken by Mr.. Gerald
Quina. Mr.. Quina can hardly be
called an amateur, as he has studied
in New York City and has achieved
more than local reputation. His
finished work has often pleased Pen
sacola audiences, but he has usually
appeared in musical roles, having a
voice of exceptional beauty. In the
play of Thursday evening, while
there was little scope for emotional
acting, in which he excels, he carried
off his part with that distinction
which he gives to whatever he at
tempts on the stage.
The talent that was displayed or
Thursday evening at "The Microbe
of Love-" suggests that Pensacola
should have a theatrical club of some
kind, to cultivate the musical anc

notice, without giving their passen- gers an opportunity to escape. She did not define the ships to be sunk
 as belligerent ships or ships carrying munitions, or armed ships. She said she would sink ALL ships. This meant nothing less than that Ameri-
 cans who ventured on the age free highways of the sea should be killed,
 in the event of their being discovered. Only one exception was made. One ! boat a week could sail from the Uni 1 ted States on a day designated by Germany, provided it were painted ] color and in a pattern designated , by Germany, and flying a flag which would also be of German designation 1 Not the American flag mind you but a | flag invented for the purpose. On our failure to agree to his humiliating and
 illegal restriction, Germany carried | out her threat. American men and
 women and children were killed; ves- sells were sunk without warning and | their life boats filled with unarmed helpless, fleeing victims, were fired | upon by the German submarines. 1 And then, when America, stung to I the quick by such hndefensible ac- ! tions commenced to show signs of
 Delated wrath, Germany endeavored
 to rouse Mexico and Japan against her and attempted to persuade them
 to invade the United States under the
 hope of being granted rewards of
 United States soil-by Germany! Would anyone with red blood in
 their veins want more to make them fight?
 Just as you would feel that you
 were doing just and right m going forth to battle with the murderous
 man who killed your children and | the children of your neighbors, so did we as nation go forth to do 1 battle with that murderous monarchy
 which had slfin our chpldren-our 1 citizens-while they were going about on thelr peaceful errands over the ocean highways. We are fighting, as
 we said before, not for money not for
 trade, nor any other mercenary thing. We are fighting for our right to live
 as a free and independant people
 whose citizens are legally and moral
 ly entitled to come and go as they will on the high seas without danger
 of outrage and destruction.
 And. above all we have entered the
 war with the high resolve to make
 sure that never again will a blood
 thirsty and ambitious autocracy de-
 luge the world with blood to sat
 isfy it's ambitions.

NOME, ALASKA, JULY 12, 1917.
WHAT COULD WE DO?

Alhough the causes and contribut- ing reasons for the entry of the Uni- ted States into the war are generally we'll known, we were much surprised few days ago to hear we'll in- formed reader remark that he be- lieved the United States should have followed the advice of Washington and kept out of the war by avoiding foreign entanglements which would place us in such position that we would have to fight. He then went on to state that the primary reason for the United States entry hes in the fact that we had loaned millions on millions of dollars to the allied governments and when the situation became such that there was a pros pect that they would not be able to pay we were forced to go to their assistance in order to secure the re- turn of what we had loaned. In other words. the moneys we had loaned the European governments constituted, in his opinion. an entangling al- liance" which had forced us into the war when the downfall of the inn perial Russian government made it seem extremely probable that the Ger mans might in the absence of a ne- cessity for maintaining a large part of their armies on the eastern front, be able to overcome the opposition of the western allies and possibly se- cure victory.
 Now, this man is not a pro German. neither is he one of those individuals who are opposed to preparedness or, when he believes there is a iustifiable reason for fighting, to war. Right down at the bottom of him we believe he is thorough patriot and we do not question his loyalty in the slight est degree. Doubtless, like many an- other, he either does not understand the true situation or is victim of a ohe-Siueu point or VleW Wnlcn VIII nOt prrmit him to see that it was not money, nor trade, nor any other mer- cenary thing, that forced us into the struggle. Neither was it because the so-called "plutocrats" wanted war SC that they would be able to make money out of 1t, as we have heard many persons suggest.
 We believe that no nation in tho history of the world ever entered into war with cleaner conscience or a more just cause than the United States. The United States simply HAD TO FIGHT. Not alone because 1t was moral duty to go in and assist in bringing the bloody slaugh- ter of the past two years and more to close. but also to preserve our self-respect and to vindicate the legal and moral right of free men of free

nation to travel the open highways of the world without let or restric- ton, save m such cases as those high ways should be closed by methods which are universally regarded as just and lawful.
 Neighbor; if man hving in the vicinity of your home should arm his house until the doors and windows
 bristled with guns, and if this man
 should suddenly invade the yards of
 his next door neighbors and take their
 goods, and kill some of their children,
 and take some of them away with him as slaves and then should an- nounce to you that if he caught any of your sons or daughters upon the streets he would kill them; and if he
 should actually kill some of your children while they were going along ! the streets on lawful and peaceful errands, would you not think that you had good reason for arming and going forth to slay that man?
 Wouldn't you think that you were justified in fighting him?
 We'll that is the situation in which the United States and Germany stand ! today. The German autocracy is the 1 murderous neighbor and the United | States Is the peaceful citizen whose
 sons and daughters have been slain. It is as necessary for nations as It l is for individuals to go abroad upon 1 the highways in the conduct of their
 business. The highway of the indi- vidual is the street and sidewalk but | the highways of nations are the seas l Without trade, including in the term 1 only such things as are considered necessities of life, our shops and fac l tories and mines would be idle, many l of our farms would he untitled and | thousands of our wage earners would l be idle and hungry.
 To pursue our trade abroad is there fore a duty we owe ourselves and our people. And to do so we mus.
 use the seas. Before the war all na-
 tions used the ocean highways. Then
 came the war and Germany and her allies found themselves unable to
 contend with the navy of England
 and the entente allies and were un-
 able to Send out their ships Germany
 then ordered a land blockade by for
 bidding the shipment of iron and all
 other products across the continent of
 Europe between the entente allies and she made that land blockade ef- fective by military force. England
 then established blockade about the
 German coasts with her powderful
 navy and forbade the shipment of
 food and iron and other products to Germany and her allies. And she
 made that blockade effective Both
 blockades were within the meaning
 of the laws governing international
 procedure and therefore, legal. Then
 Germany did something that had
 never been done before in all the shameful and bloody history of the world. She served notice that all ships found within certain areas of the oceans would be sunk without

Mr., N. G. Colley, city mail carrier

Saturday afternoon looking after his
registration number and trying to
find out if he was included in the
last call, which he was not. We
find youngl Cooley an unusually
bright, intelligent young man. He
is a son of that good and popular
man, Mr.. Sam Cooley. The young
man has been in the mail service
some time, making splendid en-
ploye of the postal department.
Mr.. E. H. Spann, the champion
peach grower of the county, says he
has cut his peach trees down and has
the old orchard in cultivation; that
peach trees are too uncertain and
that too great a quantity of the crop
rotted on the ground for want of a
market. That, perhaps, was true
several years ago, but today there is
a market in this county for no less
than 1000 bushels of peaches at a
good price per bushel.

He expects to be called at once into

mess to the call of his country.
